Here’s a crazy idea: make the CAPTCHAs so complicated humans can’t complete them.

That way if someone does, you know they’re a bot.

I should probably patent that or something. (Is joke, etc.)

Choose at random a captcha that a human could complete or one a human couldn’t complete (while the bot supposedly could complete all of them).

I give up on any captcha with mor than 1 image. The problem is you aren’t letting people in, even if you are catching bots. You’ll have to turn it off to let people in.

They usually only do it when you’re on a vpn. So you just have to give up your privacy and disable the vpn to be seen as human.

This very circumstance is described in the book „Qualityland“ and probably many more literature. The book is about a man living in the near (and completely enshitified) future who is confronted by a defunct algorithm that automatically bought him a dolphin dildo. Seeing no way of returning it by normal means - the algorithm is always right and does not accept returns after all - he sets out to right this wrong and discovers the mechanisms and people behind the screens that dictate every aspect of your life.

Well yeah, captcha/recaptcha was never designed to stop bots, but to spy without consent. Let’s not talk about the profit made by using it as unpaid labor to “decode” text and images for other companies. Should have been ditched long time ago.

We can create a simple captcha which most humans can solve, but AI can not with questions like “How many R letters are in Strawberry.

“Should you put glue in pizza?”

DankOfAmerica@reddthat.com on 22 Dec 03:07 collapse

Should you put glue in pizza?

No, you should not put glue in pizza. Here are several reasons why:

Safety Concerns

  • Toxicity: Most glues, especially those not designed for food use, contain chemicals that are toxic if ingested. Consuming glue can lead to serious health issues.
  • Allergic Reactions: Some people may have allergic reactions to the components in glue, which could be dangerous.

Culinary Integrity

  • Taste and Texture: Glue would significantly alter the taste and texture of the pizza, making it unpalatable. Pizza is meant to be enjoyed for its flavors and textures, and adding glue would ruin that experience.
  • Food Quality: Using non-food substances in cooking is not only unappetizing but also undermines the quality of the meal.

Alternatives

If you’re looking to enhance your pizza, consider using safe and delicious ingredients such as:

  • Cheese: Different types of cheese can add flavor and texture.
  • Herbs and Spices: Fresh basil, oregano, or crushed red pepper can elevate the taste.
  • Sauces: Experiment with different sauces like pesto, barbecue, or garlic sauce for a unique twist.

In summary, glue has no place in pizza or any food preparation. Stick to safe and edible ingredients to ensure a tasty and enjoyable meal!

Well, no, because it was designed just to piss all of us off in the past two decades.

With Firefox recently captcha always fails lately. So bots can get by it but I can’t.

Lemminary@lemmy.world on 22 Dec 03:26 next collapse

I haven’t experienced that. Do you remember a site so I can try it out? Lol

tonur@feddit.dk on 22 Dec 04:58 next collapse

Same here. It’s infuriating. It is specifically Cloud Flare CAPTCHA that I have issues with, but Google’s also take longer than it used to. I pretty much always have to select the images containing traffic lights or something, and then you see how bad some of them have gotten.

The underlying issue is that somehow bots have value. Work on that and bypassing captchas will be a hobby again instead of a job.
