WHY ARE SERVERS ON MTURK SO FREAKING SLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

 

Four doctors are talking. "The Indian doctor says, medicine is so advanced in India that we cut off a man's liver, put it in another man, and in 6 weeks, he was looking for a job."
The German doctor replies: "That's nothing. In Germany, we took part of a brain, put it in another man, and in 4 weeks he was looking for a job."
The Russian doctor replies: "Well, we took half a heart from a man, put it in another's chest, and in 2 weeks he was looking for a job."
The Britain doctor laughs: "You are all behind us. A few years ago, we took a human with no brain, no heart, and no liver, and made a Prime Minister. Now, the whole country is looking for a job!

I just came back myself a few days ago, only to find dead bodies scattered everywhere, "the throttling is upon us" and "save yourselves" scribbled in blood on the walls, and a few naked people with crazy eyes running around among the ruins trying to salvage what they can, posting an occasional cat GIF or something. Something truly horrific happened here by the looks of it.

 

Even time seems to be warped here now. It is both Christmas and Easter at the same time, in July. Gives me the chills.

 

This low bandwidth turking is nuts!
I'm holding my breath every time I submit a hit.

 

Thought it was my Chrome messing with me or Crapcast again in my bidness.

 

The clowns at Amazon are playing games again. It's been horrible for a couple of weeks and just keeps getting worse. Like they throttle me more for every good qual I get. Then I lose a submitted HIT to a capcha. Absolute bullshit.

 

Omg you are alive lol

 

Someone get me Bill Bezos!
