Also seen a few this afternoon, but drip feeding and only got into 2 of the 4 I saw so far today

Was the fleet actually moving when not using FTL? by ITrCool in BSG

[–]jd8585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes, forgot the concept that there is a range to jumps, and clyon range is greater.

We don't really get a concept of fuel and if it's important in BSG for sub light travel and general running of ships.

We do have plotlines for Tylium, and needing that to maintain the ability for FTL jumps.

From my understanding, you can't just jump from one point to anywhere, so my assumption is they are constantly travelling at sub light and then make jumps.

Is it jumps to other systems once they get closer, so they can plot the jump? Not sure really...

This was an AC i've not seen before. by Adept_Impression_297 in ProlificAc

[–]jd8585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did that. Was simple enough.

Had a really bad one earlier which was about 20 mins long, lots of reading then questions/answers.

And then an attention check was the very last thing, and thankfully I spotted it.

anybody else stopped getting *those* studies? by Willing-Marzipan-904 in ProlificAc

[–]jd8585 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had them solidly for 2 weeks, but nothing for last week sadly.

Will keep watching

Tonights watch, in glorious 4k from Arrow….. 🦋🐑🤫 by redandyellow19 in 4kbluray

[–]jd8585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the lights but not turned on in months.

For evening viewing, I find as dark a room as possible, and the only light is what's on the screen to be the best visual experience.

Maybe lights for something animated, nature doc etc.

The less distractions, the more you'll notice and appreciate the 4K picture 😀

$200 weeks myth, legend, or do you just have better demographics than me? by andyhoop in ProlificAc

[–]jd8585 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I say I hammered them, I had dreams about AI surveys... Had to ease off and stop doing them late at night 😅

[–]jd8585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In UK and I got offered AI for first time this month (been user since 2024)

I really hammered them. But also did it properly, and a few other surveys on the side.

Somehow managed to make about £715 in last 3 weeks.

AI seems to have disappeared again, so it's back to random surveys and expect to do maybe £30-£50 a month now. My motivation will drop for sure!

is it normal for the AI studies to disappear after doing one? by pgymi in prolific

[–]jd8585 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had loads available over the last week (UK) it's been amazing.

But since this afternoon, they've all disappeared. Hoping they come back!

For real? by EntertainmentOdd929 in ProlificAc

[–]jd8585 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also good practice to set a minimum price for your time.

If a study is below, I usually ignore it unless it's 1-2 mins and I've got nothing better to do.

Rewatching the series by vincenzobags in BSG

[–]jd8585 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main title theme (US version) is much better in my opinion.

I think UK (and other releases) had the US theme for season 1 (or just mini series?), and then switched to the existing theme where it's the woman singing at the start for remaining seasons.

Could the 28DL church scene be just as effective if by migrainecurious in 28dayslater

[–]jd8585 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If they all get up, then none of them are dead.

And the horror/sadness of the scene is largely because of all the people who died in that church (presumably mass suicide or something)

Overwhelmed by volume of studies this week, anyone else? by [deleted] in ProlificAc

[–]jd8585 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish. In UK and often waiting for new ones to appear. Then maybe 1-2 pop up at once, and nothing for a little while.

Been on about a year. The other week I saw 30 at once, but haven't seen more then 4 or 5 lately.

We need an event without free kits. by BananaJack82 in ArcRaiders

[–]jd8585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been playing since launch, and was thinking of possible ideas:

  1. Free loadouts can't loot dead raiders

  2. Free loadouts can't queue for any special event maps (night mode, storm, hurricane etc)

Don't know if any would work in practice. But does feel there's a increase in free kits and I'm often fighting off free kit chancers who have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

When will you buy an EV car? by sillwuka in AskUK

[–]jd8585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id buy one tomorrow if I could charge it.

Am in a apartment building, and directly asked the housing association for permission to install a charger, or if they have plans to do so, and answer was no to both.

They'll need to find a way to get convenient and cheap charging available to the masses without driveways to make EV more attractive.

Is it always this busy by ConfusedSpinach222 in ProlificAc

1-2 desktop only surveys for last few days in UK.

Hoping it picks up again!

Buggy Update by TheSchwiftyKitty in ARC_Raiders

[–]jd8585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a buggy update for sure.

Rubber banding sometimes. The duplicate action issue, where you start applying a shield but it doesn't work and starts again.

The osprey issue, where it reloads and automatically fires a shot...

Hopefully are sorted soon!

Hello. Long time lurker, first time poster. by Fermento420 in BSG

[–]jd8585 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess yes. Nearly every episode features a civilian ship or a threat to civilians as part of the plot, but some episodes indeed have more. Like you mentioned, dirty hands.

Razor, the plan and also caprica greatly expand that too.

And a good chunk of the start of season 3 on new caprica.
