I like the attention to sandboxing/security that web apps are given, the ease of updating, and that the UI design is easier/more accessible (many more web devs than anything else) than traditional apps, but I still prefer the speed, size and light (memory) weight of native apps.

Yes but even curl easily passes those tests by default, regardless of the user-agent. I guess I'm just skeptical of how much effect it really has in the real world... you see a lot of people saying "oh yea it works great", but they don't tell you what the before and after bot traffic actually was.

Happen to be proven wrong though if anyone has some hard data.

Isn't that going to be basically every president on earth? Unless you happen to be a president yourself or something.

Yes but it doesn't actually do any work or verify anything... crawlers could follow the refresh URL immediately and get right through. And I'm skeptical that not having to actually solve a PoW could make a meaningful difference, especially if the delay from the meta refresh can be easily bypassed.

Erm... technically correct I guess? But disappointing. Other solutions let you run a local command to generate the response and then paste it into a form.

I sortof understand the argument that it can look like what some malware does, but I feel like there should be an easy fix for that, like maybe just label it as an "advanced user" feature or something, so at least it's still available. I just feel like requiring wasm is a step in the wrong direction and even moreso shuts out legitimate users that don't have/enable wasm on their browser.

I don't understand how/why this got so popular out of nowhere... the same solution has already existed for years in the form of haproxy-protection and a couple others... but nobody seems to care about those.

Is there a model of the previous open source version that can be downloaded?

Even if your boards are made in the US, aren't the machines they use made overseas anyway? Doesn't seem very scalable to me.

You have even less rights at border crossings if you are not a citizen and have not technically entered the country through immigration yet... basically the Constitution does not even apply:

It has been ruled by SCOTUS that the Constitution specifically does not apply at border entry to non-citizens:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_ex_rel._Knauff_v._Shaughnessy

the Constitution does not grant aliens any protections when trying to enter the United States.

https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artI-S8-C18-8-7-3/ALDE_00001263/['article', '14']

an alien "on the threshold of initial entry stands on a different footing" because he or she is theoretically outside the United States and typically beyond the veil of constitutional protection.

https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/345/206/

Although a lawfully resident alien may not captiously be deprived of his constitutional rights [to due process], the alien in this case is an entrant alien or "assimilated to that status" for constitutional purposes.

The Attorney General therefore may exclude this alien without a hearing, as authorized by the emergency regulations promulgated pursuant to the Passport Act, and need not disclose the evidence upon which that determination rests.

How do you put someone in prison who has not entered your country yet?

And I thought it was already ruled that they can't hold someone for that long just for not giving up a password at the border?

That and if you go on the gnome forums, their attitude IMO seems openly hostile to.. almost everything and everyone.

Who was denied entry for not having social media?

4chan. they call each other anon all the time

I said I will take it, not that I think everyone else should, or is capable of recognizing/ignoring conspiracy theories. I struggle much harder with ignoring bad attitudes than I do obvious bullshit, but to each their own.
