Did Octavia explain why she is leaving the project? I read she will stay in Barcelona, so clearly she doesn't need the RLC money which is good. 

How good could it possibly be ?

I don't think she explain why, but she's been there for nearly 300 days. Also, she plans to leave to see her family for a whole month (?).  Not sure how the "contracts" works at RLC and how long they can be away before that becomes an issue for RLC (empty room = no viewer)

I was replying to the statement that the RLC money is good. So I was wondering how good could it possibly be: none of the tenants are interesting. They sleep most of the day ! The money would have to be substantial in order for them to want to earn it doing absolutely nothing, potentially suffering from bore-out or depression on account of not having any goals or foresight in life. All that plus the fact that accepting to appear naked and fucking and/or be fucked cannot possibly be well considered by any future employer. So how good the money is, I wonder. Pornstar-level good ? minimum wage in a western european country-level good ?

According to tenants conversations, they earn a fixed amount of around 1k per month + bonus money if they chose to do something that generates clicks. Bonus money used to be generous a few years ago, I heard a girl once stating she made 7k. However, over the last two years they been paying less and less and seems to be in crisis... it is noticeable by the difficulty in finding participants and the little effort of those remaining to do something interesting

1K per month is pathetic, that would be why they have difficulty in finding participants

Il y a 9 heures, marcbrol a dit :

Octavia was worried about the results of a website, she got an -53.
I’ve long time ago had this done by a professor psychology who did this on the side.
They needed birthdate and hour and exact location. If not then the results would be off.
So if the website only asks birthdate the result could be be really off, because what would they use as a location, for both New York? A time of birth, for both midnight ?
In that theory the planets would have a different location than if real data would be used.
So I would not worry about this result.

A professor in psychology who practices pseudo-science? As astrology is not scientifically sound at all, I doubt there is any university in the world that offers courses in it. I think the reputation of the professor in question among peers/colleagues/superiors would suffer if this side job became known... There exists no scientifically proven link between birthplace/birthdate and personality.

It's true there are some very religious universities (in the US and some islamic countries I think, maybe Israel too) that err on the non-scientific side, but these tend to be not fond of astrology either as they consider it pagan. So I wonder which university that professor worked at...

I agree that astrology charts & books, card readings etc can offer some insight in one's life & personality, especially if the person doing it has good human knowledge / people skills or knows the person well, but that insight would come regardless of the actual cards being drawn or the actual birthdate and -place: whatever comes up, something will 'resonate' with the life situation or personality of the person and form a starting point to think & talk about. So they can be a good way to get started, but should not be taken seriously by themselves.

If you're not prude, appearing naked is not a problem. I mean, I won't give 2 shit if a video of me naked is online. I'd rather not, but if it is (and given one nasty ex, that is a possibility) I don't care. What's the issue of someone seeing me naked ? Plenty have already.

Regarding the "job" issue, first of all, for an employer to know that, he would have to be able to make a direct connection to the tenants. While it's possible to find their real name, that's not linked to RLC. Also, as an employer, I never ran any search on my employees to know if they did porn (or anything outside of their work, really). I know what some of them do or did, because they told me.

And if I happened to learn that any one did, why would I care ? It has nothing to do with their qualifications (unless you run a porn company, then it's a plus). I would probably warn them that it has been known so they are not taken by surprise if someone say something, but other than that... Yeah, ok, I would probably run that search now.

Let's suppose this 1K number is real. Beside the 1K, you get free housing, and I'm betting free utilities and a few services. Depending on the location, that would put you between 1.25k to 2k+. Some of those places are actually quite nice to live in.

So you can either have a job, with hours, commitments, etc, or be free of doing whatever you want of your day while being filmed when you're there, and getting paid. I'm really not sure that money is the issue if they have difficulty finding participants (which I doubt). If they have difficulty finding participants, I'd bet on a vetting process more than anything.
