    Which of the following would you most prefer? A: a puppy, B: a pretty flower from your sweetie, or C: a large properly formatted data file?

    I have enough trouble finding all the bicycles in the photos, they wouldn’t need to change much

      Does the rider count?

      If not, where does the bicycle end and where does the rider begin?

      I CAN’T DO THIS ANYMORE!

        No pressure, but get it wrong and you’ve got the blood of that young rider on your hands

    They already do for me. I am legally blind and I have to hand my phone off to someone else to get past most the time.

    That’s pretty much what DRM does, keeping us out of the inner working of stuff

      Could you use another bot to solve that bot’s test?

      We already have the reverse, where automated spam tools outsource to humans to beat the captchas: https://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/26/technology/26captcha.html

      They would have to make a captcha that only a select group of bots can solve

    Which would you prefer:

    • A large, properly formatted data file.
    • A flower for your sweetie.
    • A puppy.

    Edit: didn’t see that someone else had already beat me to it!

    I think they already do.

    The number of Captchas I’ve been failing tells me the AIs are creating Captchas only other AIs can solve.

      It’s that little sliver of tire on the “Bus” captcha that always gets me. Do I tag it? Or not?

      I seem to fail it either way.

    You have 10 seconds to solve: 4A % 1010

      Maybe the other way: if it gets solved too fast, it is likely a bot?

        We’re keeping humans out, to let the bot empire thrive here. If you can mix base systems to do long division in 10 seconds on the internet, you deserve to be accepted into the bot technocracy

      That’s too easy. It should ask you to unencrypt a message using a given public key.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
