Whenever I have to do a captcha where you must select all tiles with bicycles, I know I can just click through super fast, but I feel like that might make the website suspicious, so I purposefully slow down like “Geez, this is a melon-scratcher!” or click and then unclick a tile like “whoops, silly me, thats an umbrella not a bicycle!” And wiggle the mouse randomly a bit as if Im double-checking my work even when I know damn well I got all the bicycles in 0.67 seconds.
Basically I feel like I have to act dumb so the internet doesn’t think I’m a bot. DAE get this?
I don’t consciously change my behavior, but sometimes I do worry if my natural inclinations are sufficiently human.
Like when they give you a traffic light that’s riiiiiight up against the edge of a box, so there’s like one pixel sticking out into the next box. I’m like “How many people notice that one pixel? Even if they notice, do they bother selecting it?”
Never thought the future would have me panicking about whether I fit in with the cool kids when it comes to identifying traffic lights, but here we are.
I worry about what defines a traffic light? Is it just the light or does the pole it’s on count?
