hi mew!

psa to all -- spend a few moments cleaning your car's rearview camera lens today. The image quality, especially at night, was poor so i checked my camera lens and it was dusty. I cleaned it with a microfiber towel and now it is performing great again!

I usually use my shirt to wipe the mud off my back window, kind of the same thing. I do think people forget to clean their camera lenses though for sure and it does make a difference.

The 15th is Sunday. Transfer to bank last time on Thursday before we don't know when we're getting our money again. Amazon's timing is terrible...right before Christmas and bank holidays. This is going to be a mess.

December 15th is the rollout of the new payment processing. They've left us hanging as to the details. Is it being implemented, if so one more deposit before Xmas? So the 15th and maybe one more time before Xmas. Idk. Just trying to cover my bases in case. Clear as mud.

A girl who used to go to my daughter's school was trying to pass a car on one of the interstates here and didn't make it :(.

I didn't know her - but......
so hard being a parent (daughter just got her learners permit.........).

Didn't it say that was the prep? Then the actual thing goes into effect something like January 15?

That's horrible. I had a good friend who knew my fear of freeway driving when I first had to do it. "Pick your lane and stay in it." She said. That's worked pretty well and I've learned if I make a mistake and see the way clear then just step on the gas and get out of it.

Yes, "We encourage you to set up direct transfer through the MTurk website starting December 15, 2019 as we will discontinue the Amazon Payments disbursement option on January 15, 2020."

So I was snooping on Choice Labs to try and see if anyone else had got their qualification back. From what I'm understanding Choice Labs has been around on Mturk for years? I wonder if the qual will return or be nul the next experiment?

With everyone's advice yesterday I was able to install a few Panda scripts and found a great video on YouTube explaining how to use them, and let me tell you I feel so much better. Now I'm up early and ready to work (even though the site is kind of dead right now lol)

In today's National calendar:

National App Day - my favorite apps are RadarScope (weather radar), Andoku 3 (sudoku) and PulsePoint (so I can see the dispatches of my local fire dept).

National Noodle Ring Day -
not sure what these are so I may have to research it.

best you can do is hope the driving school did a great job with the gory videos (but i'm sure there are enough sensitive people nowdays that they've quit showing them) and take advantage of the time you have with your daughter during the learner's permit year to instill good driving techniques and reinforce not to take risks on the road (patience is better than aggression and that rules of the road are there for safety).
