05/04 - May the Fourth be with you

You have me just about convinced to make the switch. Chrome is such a resource hog.

 

Give it a shot. I never planned on using it due to all MS browsers in the past being trash, but Chrome is sucking for me. I use Brave for personal browsing but it kinda sucks also in terms of resources.

I have the Rewards page bookmarked and do the little rewards tasks in my downtime, adds up pretty quick and you get more points for doing it all in Edge. You can use the points to buy giftcards for various places - I use mine for free / discounted games on xbox

 

I also set up pinned tabs for Prolific/Connect/TV forum/email and have them all auto load at startup. I'm only using Edge for work so its all streamlined

 

If you don't already do them, you can also watch exercise videos for 40 MS Rewards points a day. This reddit thread has a list of some of the shorter ones - https://www.reddit.com/r/MicrosoftR...itness_hyper_optimization_i_aint_got_time_to/

 

Did anyone else get .10 from pickfu? Apparently one person got them while being blocked?

Thanks for being a Worker on Mechanical Turk!

I haven't done a PickFu since September of 2020!!

 

I got it.

 

thanks for the tip!

 

Hmm, I may have to check into that sometime. I can say strongly that the PF Chang mini eggrolls are complete trash, do not waste your money! They taste like grease and chemicals, especially the nasty ass sweet & sour sauce that comes with them. You should see the reviews online lmao. I bought them at Target (not that it matters), but I did contact the company and get some coupons. I'll give the pot stickers a try next as far as that goes. I love spring rolls and sushi though! Thanks for the recommendation!

 

Got the PickFu bonus as well!

I got two. But I do a lot of them. So it doesn't seem strange to me.

 

I just got the exact same bonus and can't remember the last time I did one!

 

It looks like PickFu gave everyone a dime today. I prefer collecting stars though.

 

Maybe it has something to do with May the 4th Be With You kind of stuff....
