And here's my anecdotal evidence: I have only been served image captchas since forever. I literally thought the warped text captchas had been phased out. I literally never see anything but image captchas.

I do my best to get 8 to 9 hours in bed, and hopefully sleep, every night. I should've started doing that much earlier. It's a bummer to jump in bed at 9PM sometimes, but not feeling tired through the day and easily falling asleep
