Also, “identical” has a different meaning here.
There’s a special place in hell for the monster who dreamed up this captcha!
Yeah Google doesn’t think I know what a traffic light is… or a motorcycle
Nice try bot.
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.
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.
Someone with water spray bottle should have been in the dystopian design meeting that came up with this horror.
“No! Bad! No!”

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.
Anytime a website throws this nonsense at me, I immediately go elsewhere.
Most infuriating things I’ve encountered in gatekeeping.
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?
They are identical, it’s the same thing from opposite sides.
Yes, a magic wand
What site did you need to get on so badly that you out up with this shit?
Could be a microphone…
Yes, a vibrating microphone made for her pleasure. 😂
I would have never been able to get into this site
There’s already Yandex captcha for those situations.
I think it’s a sperm wearing a beanie
Why are we going into a glass of ice
Ew. Tim Pool
I dunno mate…at least a sperm is capable of impregnating a woman.
bottom right has multiple identical 8 pointed stars … but yeah the 2 different coloured vibrators are a better choice
I always click on the sound option for accessibility—I refuse to do the visual ones. If the sound doesn’t work, I’m out.
Just tried it, and it gave me 10 audio puzzles with three sounds per puzzle! These assholes are pure evil.
Time to bail. Fuck that shit.
Insanity!
If you look at the cord, those are inverted too, not just color, but left to right.
this one’s easy, the magic wands
“Just to prove you are a member of MENSA…”
It’s quite easy after you learn engineering-level math. It would still require some paper and patience, but it’s not hard.
Only something around 5% of the people go there, but it’s a matter of going there, not being a genius.
Isn’t it 0? They are giving you the value of x so it’s a constant and not a variable.
It is a partial derivative. Apparently you haven’t taken Calc III. I figured that would be basic math for most people. It is a shock to me that a person studying to be a nurse doesn’t need a degree in math.
To answer your question without being a dickhead: The given x indicates the point on the curve you need to find the slope at. In other words, find the derivative and then evaluate that function at the given x.
That requires neither engineering-level math nor paper nor patience. All you need is the chain rule and some basic knowledge of sine and cosine:
The derivative of cos is -sin, but because of the 6x you get an extra factor 6. The sine function is periodic on 2pi, so sin(6*2pi + pi/2) = sin(pi/2) = 1. So the result is -36
- § d/dx: 6cos(6x + Pi/2)
- = d/dx: -6sin(6x)
- = -36 cos(6x)
- = -36, when x = 2Pi
It’s called engineering level math because engineers, physicists, and math majors are required to take Calculus.
Yes I took calculus in high school but it’s not required. No I don’t remember much of any of it because it was decades ago.
You also learned all the countries/capitals in Africa when you were in middle school. But I bet you can’t name them now without Google. Same thing.
It’s been nearly 35 years since I did uni level calc and I’ve not really used in the the years since - fucked if I could figure it out without a lot of <insert search engine of choice> foo these days
You could just write it into an advanced calculator and then copy the answer. Ain’t that bad
Or use Photomath or ChatGPT. This wouldn’t work anymore.
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?!
What service?
LinkedIn.
To register a new account?
If so that’s costing Kim Jong hours!
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.
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).
Are they identical objects?
Get out Theseus!
Theseus who? I only know tHESEUS.
I looked it up in the Theseusaurus, they are the same.
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.
