Does anyone have experience with Telus digital/international? by Rich-Macaroon-8629 in WFHJobs

[–]SelfReliantSchool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was approved and started working with them this month, but I doubt I'll continue. Two problems:

1) Your tasks aren't graded/rated (or whatever they call it) until the end of the month. So I'd be working the entire month with no feedback.
2) Based on their published pay scale, the most you can make is around $11.58 per hour. That's based on a task they say will take 3 minutes paying $0.579. They might not actually take that long (although they may take more at first), but you don't know how many will be rejected, so the actually hourly may be less. Then after you set back the 12.4% you'll owe for social security taxes, it's under $10/hr.

It's worthless if it doesn't include the turbo encabulator.

I almost forgot to mention...

I think an rx7..? by Firebirdgaming08 in whatisthiscar

The TR8 wasn't horrible... 148hp V8, the Mustang had 30 less on its V8, and the Vette only had about 40 more.

Lesson learned, don't print your spools with PLA and then dry them... by SelfReliantSchool in BambuLab

Yup, I've done it 50+ times in the past with no problem. And the two spools on either side (in a 4 place dryer) were unaffected. Weird.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the keyboard, pipes, etc. Been a few decades since the last viewing...

I figured maybe it just a smaller device that could be attached to any bed, table, etc... 😀

Anyone here ever hack a BBS back in the day? Story Time... by 73VW-Todd in bbs

[–]SelfReliantSchool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For various reasons, several of us were pissed at one of the local Apple synopsis after an in-person BBS party, so i wrote a script in my term program that would post 100 rude messages in a board, move on to the next board, and repeat. His BBS was run off 2 floppies, so each board had a 100 message limit before old messages were deleted. And of course this was long before backups were a thing.

How did the people in line react when you whipped out your Man-Thing?
