I'm tired of picking motorcycles, busses, stairs and bicycles. Someone please clarify if you are supposed to pick the squares next to the object if they only have a tiny bit of the object there.
And the actual process often fails to load some part of the picture, so then you have to refresh and start over. You can never just refresh the current 'test image'. I had captchas, because I figure the spammers have worked around them, and they constantly waste my time.

I dunno, I intentionally pick the wrong items in the second Captcha challenge to poison their ML dataset, as Google's not paying me to be their forced-labor mechanical Turk, and I hope everyone does the same. Suck it Google, you trillion dollar cheapskate, pay for your damn labor.
- paradox460 3y agoBack when they were using the two word ones, a common meme on the internet was to put a swear or epithet as the second word.
- greatgib 3y agoAwesome! I'm doing that also but I was thinking that I was kind of an exception. I'm happy to know that others are doing the same!
- mikecoles 3y agoI do as well. If anything looks remotely similar to what I'm providing the free labor for classifying, I make sure to click that in the tiniest of hopes it does mess up their training.

- ensignavenger 3y agoI find that intentionally selecting a wrong square or two increases my chance of "succeeding" in solving the captcha.
- thebruce87m 3y agoAND they try to push terms like “crosswalk” on us? Click on a “crosswalk”? No idea what that js, all I see is a zebra crossing. I already have to correct my son every time he says “on accident” and it will be a cold day in hell before I accept “crosswalk”.
- ta8645 3y ago> have to correct my son every time he says “on accident” This used to bother me as well. But it is actually reasonable, since we have no objection to the opposite evocation of "on purpose". The language is just mutating normally.
- thebruce87m 3y agoI was mostly being facetious but “on accident” is a hill I’ll die on. It’s like nails on a chalkboard.
- pests 3y agoIt's funny that you choose to die on a hill that I can't even see. What is wrong withg the phrase? Seems normal and correct to me.
- woleium 3y agoIts an Americanism. “By accident” is more acceptable in the UK
- pests 3y agoHa, as an American I struggled and failed to think of the "correct" wording that was alluded to. "by accident" sounds correct and I wouldn't second guess hearing it, but yep, "on accident" is what comes to me naturally when speaking.
- Pufferbo 3y agoIs crosswalk a NA regional term for pedestrian-crossing?
- JohnTHaller 3y agoThe ML dataset is so badly poisoned that I've switched to doing the audio version. Otherwise I get it wrong a couple times and it gets locked for an hour. This is rough when I'm trying to scan PortableApps.com releases before posting.
- delfinom 3y agoI like to think I helped poison it over the years just a little to always selecting a wrong object with all the right ones over thousands of uses.
