quality meme, shitty reality
We need to develop more alternatives like federated social media or even completely make web services p2p. And then have them somewhat democratically controlled, or easily able to migrate to alternatives without cost of loosing network effects.
Especially something like amazon / ebay / paypal / ali would be awesome to replace with a "public utility" federated version. They tax so much of the sales and it all goes to psycho billionaires.
I encountered the mother of all captchas the other day: it had me picking a three-dimensional room diagram among six of them, matching it to a 2d top-down view of the room. It was way more time consuming than a typical captcha, and I had to do the same task five or six times.
I think we'll see harder and harder captchas as AI models get better and better. Eventually it won't be a realistic option since it just costs humans time and the convenience of whatever service they're trying to use.
Real reason why people just stay on the same four big-data-harvesting sites now.
Website any% speedrun (no glitch)
I know the hate for it abounds, but this is why I'll often just try to look stuff up in a chat box with an AI, browsing has become exhausting.
There are some sites so extremely annoying that I just get a mirror from archive.org or archive.is. I'm doing this with some news sites that will only allow me to browse them if I accept their cookies.
ever wonder why AI is so “good”? please identify all images which are ____. the captcha system may not know what the image is, but after thousands of responses, it has a pretty good idea of where it is, and what it is (since most users will answer correctly to prove they are human).
I just hate the ones that block you for using Linux. User agent spoofers work but they'll figure out how to block those too someday.
All I see is a cross in the upper right corner.
the ones that put you on there mainpage if you don't accept cookies or use addblocker are the worst.
Oh thank god this is gaining traction because I've been having these issues for the last years more and more.
This is a real mess, i do this all day long, and in the images website if you see just a little bit of a image in one square you click it or not... Grrrrr 🤬
For ads problem ublock origins / Adguard / Blokada / PiHole does job done especially if you add HAGEZI Ultimate filters on it if you want clean webpage
For captcha problem i think theres script that can you inject to bypass it (i forgot the name of that script)I mean, my browser just deletes all the site datas as soon as it closes, so this isn't really a problem.
Stop giving me ptsd
