Ese magnífico momento al final de tu jornada laboral cuando solo te falta acabar de rellenar un formulario de Google y entonces el botón Enviar no funciona y cuando por fin funciona te salen 15 recapchas distintos, uno detrás de otro, hasta que por fin te dejan enviar la respuesta.

Recaptcha debería estar considerado un crimen contra la humanidad.

Is this real? Captcha Hell is "an #Adventure puzzle #Game where you are just trying to buy a concert ticket, but the #Captchas have other plans".

Today's test of my humanity got me wondering: why don't we have CAPTCHAs that ask us to select all squares with hand-painted signs in them? Or with ghost signs, or with a sign painter working, or with a mahl stick?

The time has come to end the motorcycle's dominance in this domain and to mirror our species' diversity when we are asked to prove we're not bots.

@mpldr @JessTheUnstill all #Captchas are bad, because as a matter of fact they work opposite to what people expect them to do.

  • Humans are slower and more error prone than machines so it's rather a stochastic guesswork by non-uniform response delays to identify if it's made by a human.
    • Since any #bot is paid for by runtime, storage, compute demands and traffic, it makes a delay of 2-5+ seconds that a human needs to klick,and AutoFill a form prohibitively expensive by comparison.

#Anubis AFAICT does hoever handle non-#JS browser quite well because if that.

  • Simply because a human won't hit refresh dozens of times a second unless they literally hold down the key(s)…

CAPTCHAs, the Pentagon, and what happens when AI agents stop being a demo.

@lexinova @Mojeek @Qwant
Exactly. I do have LibreSearch (LibreY) instance of my own, but that is still not good enough for real world. The same way I had tried few other to self host for family, but am struggling to get past the #null responses or #captchas stuff.

Also, captcha sometimes become necessary or maybe #anubis like stuff for the crap #bots

@reverseics

I thought it was common knowledge that you are training #AI when you use #captchas

@elettrona @Tutanota at least @monocles (and @Stuxhost) don't impose any Captchas and provide users with non-proprietary, standardized protocols like IMAP & SMTP, so all your favorite eMail clients work - not just WebMail!

WTF #Signal @signalapp is now forcing #Captchas upon me to "verify" I'm "human"?

F*** YOU.

[Update: I have been told that others have been hit by this for years, already.]
