I wish to solve CAPTCHA with bicycles, motorcycles etc. in a manner consistent with chaotic good alignment, benevolence, humanitarianism, etc. Shall I select squares that include riders/passengers but not also their conveyance? Was reminded of my uncertainty about this when reading this recent post by @Wilshire to the Technology community.

      $ echo "$((2#01010010)) $((2#01100101)) $((2#01100100)) $((2#01110010)) $((2#01110101)) $((2#01101101))"

      82 101 100 114 117 109

      Reads ‘Redrum’ in ASCII. A reference to The Shining, I suppose. If there’s a joke it’s lost on me, sorry. Was kinda fun spending 10min decoding that, though :)

        Nice, glad you enjoyed it.
        I was just going off of what if OP was a bot trying to trick us into solving the captcha. Went with redrum cuz it’s evil, and more importantly, it was short. Didn’t want to spam a long comment for a silly joke.

    CAPTCHAs are solved by consensus. Whatever the CAPTCHA thinks a bicycle is depends on what people before it selected. Sometimes it doesn’t know and just uses your answer to set up future CAPTCHAs. So you should be thinking: what would other people (or bots) select for the CAPTCHA.

    Don’t they have an ai for that? Or is it something the billion dollar systems still can’t manage?

        I could probably pay someone $50 a pop to solve it for me for the rest of my life and not reach even 1billion.
