    Bro, everytime I get the select all the ‘x’ tiles (motorcycle, bicycle, bus, etc) one I never know if it means “all” of them, like even ones with just a little bit on the tile. Does it want the tires, too? It’s bullshit. Never seems to be correct, what I select.

      I’ve always done any square that includes any part of the thing, so the tire on the bus or the helmet of the motorcycle rider. That no longer works for me though, recently I keep getting more images and they seemingly never stop so I just give up on whatever I was trying to load. Its pretty ridiculous how shit the internet has become.

      “select the bikes” That’s a motorcycle and that’s a moped. Those don’t count-uh I fucking guess they do?

      “Select the bus” Bro that’s an intersection at 200 feet.

      “Type the Captcha letters” Is that a lowercase r or a capital T?

      IKR! i try and solve the CAPTCHA and theres a tiny 5 nanometer slice of crosswalk on another tile, and i have no idea if i need to click it or not. And then sometimes you don’t have that issue, and you click all the correct tiles, and then it just takes you to another one, and another one, and another one… they really need to improve it

          Because I think the “rules” are based on what other people did

          I select every little bit, which works, but there might be some wiggle room

      I don’t think it matters, as that isn’t the real test. Instead, it’s testing whether you are “behaving” as a human. Mouse movements, hesitation etc.

          To give you hope… and despair. In the end, it wants to witness your human suffering. Shake that mouse.

        Yeah, and if you move the cursor convincingly enough, it will just give the check mark without showing any pictures.

        It starts checking your browser, input devices, screen info, etc, before you even click the are you human box.

        I suspect it knows you’re human and keeps track of those people who are good at clicking the image, so they can harvest more training data. They know who will keep trying, and give them more images to verify.

      Do it slowly and don’t be consistent, sometimes I select the tile with 3 pixels of the thing its supposed to contain, sometimes I leave 2 or 3 tiles that clearly contain the thing, sometimes I just select a tile that doesn’t even match. Idk, it always works, I suppose the erratic behavior is what shows them I’m human or smth

      It looks what most people do and people are lazy, so, i guess, select only the fully covered tiles?
