    I guess i'm just always wary of these types of HITs that require you to run script/Extension for a good amount of time (i think they said you need to run it for a min. of 10 hours to qualify for payment).

    Definitely. It also monitors how much time you spend on MTF and other places, if you look at the details.

    And they compute hourly wage using the time accepted and submitted, which sounds reasonable, but anyone working from a queue (be it surveys or batches) or using multiple tabs not only gets bad data, but contributes their bad data to the averages shown other people.

    Mostly though, even if you trust the extension, you submit the $5 HIT, and you are committed to using it for 10 hours, even if it creates havoc and conflicts with other scripts, etc.

    Clearly there's going to be a boss battle in your mind for control at some point...

    I'll play some more Dark Souls to prep

    Not sure what I can reveal because it's behind a link, but I don't think PickFu were the people running the study.

    Any time I hear that some program wants to run for any "length" of time I assume it's either A: a botnet or B: a botnet for mining bitcoins haha.

    I just moved into my own place and my neighbor is a German Mennonite that doesn't speak English. He also doesn't have car and is very quiet. This isn't so bad.

    I like to do my HIIT after work. You'd think it would be tiring, but it actually invigorates me.

    Anytime someone mentions HIT or HIIT in regards to exercise, I automatically think they are talking about Mturk now. Damn Mturk changes your life.

    High Intensity Interval Training. You run, right? It's just like that. Only you do it in spurts with periods of rest.
