I really hate the ones that make you select pictures that contain particular images. Apparently if you do them too fast, they’ll just keep telling you to try again.
Also the anti-fingerprinting in Firefox breaks them. Fucking awesome that I can solve that bullshit just fine and it still won’t validate unless I let some asshole slurp my browser data.
The goal is to be worse than the computer now???
Is that why I have to go through 3 of those fucking things per captcha every time?
Being too accurate can also impact you. Try clicking and then unclicking a borderline one.

In a way, those are interesting because you can use them (sometimes retrospectively) to tell what Google or Google’s clients are working on. First it was all the text stuff as they digitized old newspapers and books and magazines. Then there was that period when you wanted you to identify stop signs and house numbers and businesses and other stuff like that - all of that fed into Google Maps. Then it was traffic lights and speed limits and stop signs, which was early self-driving. Now it’s motorcycles, buses, bridges, and bicycles - all things that were (maybe still are?) proving a challenge for advanced self-driving. The traffic lights and crosswalks fit into this somehow, though I’m not sure if it’s self-driving cars, map directions, both, or something else entirely.
I have absolutely no idea what they’re doing with fire hydrants, staircases and mountains, though. It’ll probably be obvious in retrospect. But anyway, how do you like your life as not only a data point that Google can sell to anyone interested, but also as a cog feeding data into Google’s many businesses and helping them solve their identification issues?
Fuck is that what it is? Sometime I just give up after they seem to reset 3-4 times
Next time you get one, try giving it a second between clicking each picture. It’ll probably validate after the first or second one.
I’m so upset at myself for not getting a screenshot but I was in a hurry to complete one and no shit it was a few images you had to confirm if it had a bus in the picture and one of them was a photo of a snow covered bus stop which looked liked Russia with 2 guys having a fucking axe fight, blood splatter in the snow and all…
I just decide to no longer use whatever it is when there’s that many dumb captchas. Half the time it doesn’t matter what you do and it’ll make you do them again.
Please verify that you are human to file taxes.
So now we have Wario-ware style microgames as captchas? Beats “which piece of this image is a bus?”.
Using the arrows please help the drone take out the insurgent base.
Can we just fucking retire Captcha already? It can be defeated and there’s been proof of that. If it’s purpose has been defeated, then it is no longer of use.
Great now Pornhub will have mandatory minigames you have to beat in order to watch videos
Beat a game to beat your meat
The trick to these is to solve them as fast as possible.
