I wasn't going to post my earnings this week, but what the hell. When my elderly mother calls daily, I stop what I'm doing no matter what. (I used to not do this. I would finish what I was doing and call her back. She started thinking that her phone was broken even though I explained it to her a thousand times.) Her caregivers called twice this week, too, and again, I stop what I'm doing no matter what. Based on my earnings, my mother has had a bad week!

I did feed the cardinals and water the flowers, so they are happy. If only they could pay my bills.

I always miss the GoT survey every dang Sunday. >.<

PANDA it. Someone's bound to return one over the next 13 hours.

Anyone use Synergy? I was given a 2nd laptop for free and I figured I would use the free one for scraper and the main one for actual turking. Would that work?

I don't use it but I've heard of others that do. This thread has pictures/info of people using multiple monitors and such: http://www.mturkcrowd.com/threads/computers-and-gear.108

its pretty terrible took me like 1 hour

How long did it take for it to match you up with someone? Mine was nearly instant every time.

I really have no idea...

I use it. You would need to copy and paste the panda from scraper since it's a different computer. It works sort of like multiple monitors, but each one is still a separate computer.

what happened to him?

ive used it for over 10 years.

if you know the IP address of both machines this will work

Yeah, that would work perfectly. I'd probably just use scraper and turkmaster on the junker so I can have full focus on my main laptop. Thanks for the insight.

Input director is a little more reliable if they're all using Windows. But yeah, it works pretty well.

 

[T. Leela]

Sorry trying this again..
Gotta quit posting from my phone...My daughter was her line...manager? at S.L.C
ComCon ...being a complete dork I thought this was the coolest thing ever!

I've used both, and I've had problems with both. Synergy has always had issues copying and pasting between computers for me, and ID used to crash all the time and I would need to restart it. I would recommend trying both to see which one works best for you.

umm there was an update on his gofundme account...

Crap. That Gofundme is a slightly different layout than I'm used to seeing. Usually the updates are on the main page. That's good news! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

I use it connects my laptop and 2 pc's with one keyboard. I love it, I had to pay $10 for the program though. Good Investment.

No problem
