Who's excited to watch Patty Mahomes sling it on Monday Night?

Also does 100 bucks for a laptop fan seem excessive?

 

[greg]

So this week has been great...Monday I had no power for about 6 hours..Tuesday the fan in my laptop craps out so here I am finally back and able to work after spending 100 bucks for a new fan and having my computer cleaned out.. it does run much better but this week is basically a total loss at this point..

Yes, that seems excessive, but unheard of. I do a lot of DIY electronics repair (I own a cutting laser so I'm basically my own technician). There's a great place in Needham MA that sells all manner of gizmos. Their prices are super reasonable, staff is exceptionally helpful at finding the right part. I had to replace the cooling fan in the laser and their part was 1/3 the cost of the OEM. http://www.youdoitelectronics.com/ Good online store and also a physical store, if you want to fight the traffic on Rte 128 to get there...

Ah, I don't personally like working on laptops, everything is in a really congested area and the fan he took out is pretty big...

Friend of mine told me to get a new one but honestly I've had this HP for 5 years and it's still awesome and I don't want windows 10...matter of fact they still sell PC's with the specs my 5 year old laptop has.

Guess who drafted Levon bell with the #2 pick of the draft.....

 

[SherryNotShirley]

If you want good paying hits, become a rock star or a professional boxer.

ha! I had to read that twice.

bell was one of the bigger flops ive seen in sports. i think he misplayed his hand hardcore by sitting out

 

[WillowWolf]

Is anyone else having a problem where the footer of mturk is floating up into the HIT and blocking parts of it?

Only in Chrome. If I open the same HITs in Microsoft Edge, the footer is where it's supposed to be.

The only thing I can think of is referencing this scene

...I don't get it

It's from the Peanuts cartoon The Great Pumpkin that comes out every Halloween.

Just because the hit is about rocks...made me think of Charlie Brown getting nothing but rocks.

Still banninated. At least the prolific surveys keep coming. I'm almost making my daily goal just from them.
