1. The forum & main site will stay up indefinitely after MTurk shuts down in case anyone needs anything. I assume a handful of things will break after MTurk vaporizes & I'll fix it as fast as I can to keep the two main parts of the site online.

    Not to jinx it, but 0 error boxes since @AlexZ posted the anime firewall link, just the mere mention of it scares the robbits away :emoji_sweat_smile:

    I like how we were talking about Alexa, but now that we switched to Hitler, it's suddenly Siri. Mhm... That anti-Apple bias is still alive and well I see. :emoji_persevere:

    Dear Amazon Mechanical Turk customer,

    Thank you for being part of Amazon Mechanical Turk's journey and for helping shape the crowdsourcing space.

    We're writing to inform you that Amazon's Mechanical Turk (MTurk) service will close, effective September 30, 2026.
    This means MTurk will no longer be available to workers and requesters after September 30, 2026. Existing requesters can continue to publish HITs, and workers can continue to complete tasks until this date.

    Guess we all knew this was coming. MTurk was a 10 year thing for me. Sad to see it go. Thanks to everyone on this forum who posted over the years and helped me learn and laugh (even though I didn't post much I read it everyday). Best of luck everyone![​IMG]

    I normally take Friday off, but gotta say MTurk is tempting me.
