10/20 - AWS on Fuego Monday!

Me when there is an unmarked writing task.

 

I already knew better

 

wish me luck with the four days worth of amoxicillin that I have from 2017... the ear infection got unbearable on thursday and I have a shit ton of prolific stuff to knock out before it expires later today.

 

I'm wondering if the AWS outage is affecting Prolific - I have been 'verified' for years. Today it's asking me to verify again. But it won't let me accept the terms to do so. /sigh

Been out of town for a while and just wanted to start to replenish my prolific money stash

 

• Name: PROLIFIC.COM
• • Nameservers:
    NS-1424.AWSDNS-50.ORG
    
    NS-1833.AWSDNS-37.CO.UK
    
    NS-226.AWSDNS-28.COM
    
    NS-736.AWSDNS-28.NET

 

It is affecting Qmee which I use a lot, and it doesn't look like it's getting any better.

 

is prolific on aws too? it feels slower also

 

How 'bout Connect? Seems kinda squirrely, too. Keeps logging in...or not..or something? Is it on AWS too?....maybe we ALL are, and just haven't been told.

 

The AWS AI gremlins have escaped.

 

TurkerView still works great tho. Truly the last bastion of the Internet.



@ChrisTurk Good on you for cheaping out and hosting it on DigitalOcean instead of AWS. It's finally paying off.

 

I wonder if the payment issues last week were a sign of cracks in the system.
