10/16 - Skunny Sunday!

Yeah, that message has been popping up in HITs since probably about July 23rd, 2015. I think any chance of Amazon changing their minds on those rate increases is probably long gone by now. They probably just keep it in their HITs so people don't complain about the pay.

And they're definitely not going to give a discount to academic requesters since the 40% rate was specifically targeted at them to begin with.

Those changes are never going to roll back. Bezos need all the money he can get right now, rocket paint jobs are really expensive.

He's my boyfriend and he resents that.

I threw in another check just in case, but you can if you want. There's no way I'm doing that.

When testing, I had some issues with this sometimes not being effective, due to what I figured out was basically a race condition between the way Amazon's stupid survey template was running its hiding code and the way Greasemonkey was running the script. After spending way too much time trying to get around the problem, I settled on wrapping the .click in a timeout with a small delay, which seems to make it work reliably. The completed script is now available here, ready for people to install:

PS: @Kerek I also had to add the @grant GM_log line, please add that to your standard header any time you're using JQuery. I know you don't do all the formal header stuff like I add when I upload for you, which is okay, except that particular line (or one like it) is important to have even if it's just something quick you share on the forum, to prevent breaking other HITs unexpectedly for Greasemonkey/FF users.

I think that depends on you and your exes. If both of you are able to be adults about it and acknowledge that people move on, then I don't see any problem with remaining friends, in real life or on social media. I'm still friends with all of my exes on social media and I still talk to every one of them from time to time. But if either one of you can't handle that for whatever reason, then I would say no.

If it means making yourself sad by excessively staring at what they're doing with their new bf/gf instead of with you, maybe not. (Just last week found out someone I know has been doing that.)

her and him were together for 4 years (she told me this in person). broke it off in May of this year. all of their pics are still up on her social media so I don't know. I'm friendly with my ex of 3 years (ended last December), but I removed all of our pictures together pretty soon after the relationship. who knows. i'm just going to be shielded with this chick

Eh, honestly, being friends with someone on Facebook doesn't really mean all that much anyway. Unfriending someone is more of a big deal I think.

Because I'm getting throttled I'm going to jump on every few minutes to tell you no.

I think everyone just handles breakups in different ways. After breaking up with someone, I've never felt any urges to remove photos or anything. I know others that are the same way, and I know plenty of people that choose to delete/burn every photo they have. I think it really just depends on the people involved and on what terms they ended the relationship.

It's okay to be on guard, though. I'm sure I would be. Four years is a long time and I don't think it's unreasonable to expect that there may still be lingering feelings there, after having only broken up five months ago. But being friends with someone on social media and having some photos up doesn't necessarily mean that there's anything going on there, either.

No, I had to contact them and they are sending me another one.

I hope whoever got my turtle loves it and feeds it all the marshmallows.

wait, was this a real live turtle?

im actually friends with most of my exes on FB, its not a huge deal to me or them since we get along well still....but...

^ exactly this. if you get along with them yeah. otherwise, its not good to keep in touch with toxic type people

 

[SleepComa]

Well that is kind of weird that she has pictures up of them still, maybe she misses him.
