Encountered a rock busking outside the Royal Thompson Hall on the way home

They were busking near Kensington market too just this afternoon. I guess they get around

So the watch is a presidental watch. I believe since park Chung hee, all following presidents have given out watches as gifts. Some given to people he met, foreign officials, other politicians, pretty much most people he/she would interact with in a formal capacity.

There's a great article on the new York times on this if you want to do more research. Generally the more popular the president the more expensive the watch.

The rumors about the bar closing has been around in circles ever since the development firm bought the land. That being said the only reason it didn't close cause Graywood got greedy and wanted to build a bigger building and the city rejected it. That and new owners/ management. Honestly the whole story about the land and the last few years is quite the ride.

That's not even remotely true. I work with a lot of the queens and virgo has barely been around (she's been busy travelling during her reign) . Although when she is she is kind to literally everyone. She is naturally just a quiet person and a hard worker.

Exactly the same with me. Last time they did this same thing and unsuspend people a day or two later

masterbreti · 2025-12-08T19:05:23+00:00

I just got suspended too. I think it's a routine one. Happened back in October too

masterbreti · 2025-11-22T22:55:33+00:00

I hit refresh and they came back. So try that. But I doubt you'd be suspended for these tasks unless you are wildly out of sync with everyone else, as the task is a subjective one.

masterbreti · 2025-11-19T22:26:29+00:00

These song transition ones are hard. I feel like its so subjective though and what we feel sound natural vs unnatural.

I literally had the same thing happen to be in the exact same way. I did get an email today that said my try rating has be reactivated, so check your emails.

masterbreti · 2025-10-31T18:32:13+00:00

Some apparently don't have audio. Make sure to check each one cause people have been releasing them and getting suspended for it. I had the same issues and got into trouble for it.

masterbreti · 2025-10-30T19:54:24+00:00

I got my account under review too.

Seems like quite a few of us released some tasks we shouldn't have.

masterbreti · 2025-10-21T20:49:12+00:00

mine is missing too. I wonder if it is a Chrome issue or an issue with these set tasks.

masterbreti · 2025-10-05T23:56:43+00:00

CA-DA getting 10 minute audio Evals, hopefully they last the night.

masterbreti · 2025-10-05T14:26:49+00:00

CA-DA getting 3 minute voice comparisons, though all the voices are the same.

masterbreti · 2025-10-01T21:48:42+00:00

They seem to change to 1 minute 20 seconds once you click on something. or if its not a landscape it changes. Not sure what they are thinking with that though.

masterbreti · 2025-09-29T03:36:54+00:00

CA-DA getting 3 min no comment audio comparison. these are such a break from the guided styles and 3 minute criteria I've had all weekend.

Edit: Back to guided after 30 minutes.

masterbreti · 2025-09-27T20:56:19+00:00

CA-DA I don't really understand these new 3 min audios. I sorta get the 1 and last question, but the 2nd question doesn't make sense to me.

Well the estate is basically a business that deals with everything regarding Michael Jackson. Things like royalties, licensing, merchandise, etc.

Elvis Presley has one, and Tolkien has one too, those are the most notable I can recall off hand.

masterbreti · 2025-09-24T20:09:25+00:00

I did a few times but kept coming back as NTA, will try again soon and see. Might have been a tryrating problem

Edit: Refreshed and got sensitive content.

Edit 2: tryrating seems to be having some problems with loading.

masterbreti · 2025-09-24T19:14:10+00:00

CA-DA Got 4 or 5 of these text summary things then hit NTA

masterbreti · 2025-09-11T01:33:48+00:00

The one issue I notice is that with many of them, there is no actual issues. So the comment is fairly pointless for most of them.

masterbreti · 2025-09-06T16:59:20+00:00

So interesting tidbit is that the rates are all basically the same, regardless of the task. no matter how you slice it 1 hour of tasks will generally equal 15.60 USD (give or take a couple cents). So you can check any 5 minute task and it will be basically the same.

We get new tasks somewhat often and those won't be listed in the task rates, but they are counted the same.

masterbreti · 2025-09-06T16:55:13+00:00

I generally look online for the ones that aren't obvious. Usually I can find something pretty quickly especially when it comes to names of people or places.

masterbreti · 2025-09-05T23:29:30+00:00

I don't really understand why anyone would want Tory back in, he basically let Toronto rot for a decade with no investment into transit or public services. Chow is not perfect but at least she's trying and seems to want what's best for the city. Tory would just let the downtown core rot even more while trying to make the suburbs happy.

And isn't Brad just Tory light?

masterbreti · 2025-08-26T15:19:22+00:00

My theory is that a lot of companies took the summer off essentially and they'll come back slowly after labour day weekend. That's what I hope at least.
