You have 50 milliseconds..
Some fifteen year old nerd: "I got this"
Which of the following would you most prefer? A: a puppy, B: a pretty flower from your sweetie, or C: a large properly formatted data file?
Uh, is the puppy mechanical in any way?
No, it is the bad kind of puppy!
I've used captchas before, this already happens :(
please click all images with busses
Sees extremely distorted reflection of bus in a store window in one panel; has breakdown
"Complete Super Mario Bros. in under 5 minutes"
"Complete Brawl's Zelda Ocarina of Time demo in under 5 minutes"
I have enough trouble finding all the bicycles in the photos, they wouldn’t need to change much
Which would you prefer:
- A large, properly formatted data file.
- A flower for your sweetie.
- A puppy.
Edit: didn't see that someone else had already beat me to it!
You have 10 seconds to solve: 4A % 1010
That's too easy. It should ask you to unencrypt a message using a given public key.
Maybe the other way: if it gets solved too fast, it is likely a bot?
We're keeping humans out, to let the bot empire thrive here. If you can mix base systems to do long division in 10 seconds on the internet, you deserve to be accepted into the bot technocracy
That's pretty much what DRM does, keeping us out of the inner working of stuff
They already do for me. I am legally blind and I have to hand my phone off to someone else to get past most the time.
Y'all can pick out those buses right now eh?
I think they already do.
The number of Captchas I've been failing tells me the AIs are creating Captchas only other AIs can solve.
It's that little sliver of tire on the "Bus" captcha that always gets me. Do I tag it? Or not?
I seem to fail it either way.
