"Quick" security check... I had to do 15 of these...

Also, "identical" has a different meaning here.
There's a special place in hell for the monster who dreamed up this captcha!
When I see this captcha and it says "1 of 10", I close the page. This website doesn't want me, and I don't want to be there either.
Microsoft uses some of these. I remember having to do something like that to setup a minecraft account and at some point I thought I would just give up and lose my money.
OpenAI uses these too. I used to have the pro subscription, yet they asked me to solve 10 of these for every other request. Needless to say, I'm no longer their customer.
Top left? I mean, two of the things are literally inverse from each other, but that looks closest...
Yeah, inverse, but not identical.
Check this one out!
(hint: it's the top right... totally different size/shape, but considered "identical". FML
I had 15 of these goddamn things, and if you get one wrong they start you off again from #1, but after you've done the entire series!
EDIT: Also, wtf is the object? A wired personal vibrator?
Hitachi Magic Wand?
What site did you need to get on so badly that you out up with this shit?
bottom right has multiple identical 8 pointed stars ... but yeah the 2 different coloured vibrators are a better choice
Yes, a magic wand
If you look at the cord, those are inverted too, not just color, but left to right.
this one's easy, the magic wands
A mouse is guess. Or a penis.
They are identical, it's the same thing from opposite sides.
Are you doing Azure training too? I cursed these out to my boss when I encountered them. I've seen a lot of bad captcha but these are hands down the worst.
What is it you have to use so badly you put up with this bullshit!? Haven't they already proven that in 2024 bots can solve the CAPTCHAS better than humans can??
I signed up to LinkedIn to get in touch with someone. Deleting the account the moment I get a reply. They couldn't pay me to put up with this nonsense. 😂
Yes GPT4o was able to solve this. I didn't.
What service?
LinkedIn.
To register a new account?
If so that’s costing Kim Jong hours!
Concidentally, I only saw these captchas from hell on sites that also have their own apps. I suspect they're trying to force you to use the app instead of the browser (while also training AIs of course).
Yeah, captchas have gotten worse recently. I had one asking me to choose “the largest animal” and it had an example picture of what was meant to be a lion. There was a rhino in one of the other pics.
It wanted me to click on lions, but then gave me something larger than a lion.
Edit: I just got this… Clicking on the flowers fails. Clicking on Skip fails. It wouldn’t let me try a third time to try clicking the cows, giraffe, or moose. But it clearly believes at least one of the three is smaller than a cat.
And the frog is scaled to look bigger so you don't know what they mean either.
Nice try bot.
Someone with water spray bottle should have been in the dystopian design meeting that came up with this horror.
"No! Bad! No!"
spritz
Yeah, the person who thought this up should be forced to do it for 24 hours straight, with only 10 seconds for each guess, and for every one he gets wrong, five minutes gets added to his time.
The answer is none, assuming color also plays a role.
Whoever made this CAPCHA probably didn't consider that.
This image isn't reCAPTCHA, but since it's still relevant, here you go:

The thing is, there will come a day when only bots will be able to get these right. The only way into a site will be to answer incorrectly, to prove you're human.
"Prove that you're inferior."
"I.....what?......What even IS this puzzle? There's a glowstick, and a porcupine, a pez dispenser in the shape of ray romano, and the board game battleship? I don't get it.....I don't even get whats being asked...."
"Correct!"
".......I still don't get it."
"Buddy, we know your human. Stop proving your inferiority."
"WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON???"
"Now you're just showing off...."
The system is broken
I see a future where you will need to have a philosophical argument together with a blood test to logon to the internet.
You were solving some devs IQ test they couldn't themselves.
My guess is the first one.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's it - it is the same little swirly thing, just coloured differently and mirrored. I've seen worse.
Yeah Google doesn’t think I know what a traffic light is… or a motorcycle
Anytime a website throws this nonsense at me, I immediately go elsewhere.
Had to do these to view some Twitter/X post a friend sent me: I don't have an account and visiting the link redirects directly to login. So I created a new account with a temp mail. Then I had to solve 10 of these riddles. After the 10th there was an error message that I cannot use this email or so. I asked my friend for a screenshot afterwards. I had a loooong day and it was very late in the evening. I never ever do this again. Shitty SM.
That's the bullshit I had to go through when I forgot my password on Twitter And had to reset it.
That's not too bad. At least that's not something you do on a daily basis.... It isn't, right?!
Rockstar uses these, but 30 of them, and each one asks for undivided attention. Count all visible sides of the dice, showing 6 different pictures of dice and then you have to choose 1 that matches the shown number. 30 times. Fuck that. I haven't been able to play GTA5 since.
I literally ragequit that captcha. Mine was showing floor plans and grainy "pictures" of a room asking me to pick which floor plan matched the picture from that perspective. I swear to you, none of them actually matched, progress reset constantly because I'd invariably pick the wrong one. It provoked such a primal rage in me, it felt like I was being gaslit into believing I was wrong when actually that captcha was cursed to hell and back. Thankfully my very patient partner managed to get through them for me and I only had to do it once to get the launcher to recognise my new pc.
If you attempt to answer this rather than refresh for an easier one, the captcha assumes you are a computer and blocks your IP
rather than refresh for an easier one
That was one of the easy ones! They got more abstract and further from identical as you went on.
And the bastards set it up so they make you think you're solving 5 of these... then when you do the fifth one, they make you do 10... etc... infuriating.
Just ask chatGPT, it can solve capchas faster than a person. Set up a script and boom, no more capchas issues.
Most infuriating things I've encountered in gatekeeping.
I looked at the bottom left and now 'Jellyfish Jam' is stuck in my head.
I used to hate this when i used to play roblox they used to push this captcha
I failed.
Imagine Optimus Prime trying to buy Sam Witwickys Glasses on EBay and encountering this captcha.
"Jo, this is fucking bullshit you guys."
Only the power of the all spark could solve this captcha.
