At this point, whenever I see the "are you a robot" captcha, unless I SERIOUSLY need that particular site, I just leave and go spend another hour looking for an alternative.
It is not only anoying, but almost insulting at this point.
@LukeAlmighty Captcha in general is horrible, and the shit they're using on 4chan is even worse than the usual BS. Fucking hell, it's like having to play a shitty mini-game every time you want to post something.
@judgedread@ChristiJunior@LukeAlmighty They do shit like that because they don't understand how to mitigate DDOS, or they don't don't have a human on hand that can so they go they most expedient route.
@l0wk3y@ChristiJunior@LukeAlmighty No human on hand is the rule not the exception. 'Can't we lay off some technical staff, that isn't a profit center' - the credo of the MBA.
