> cloud browsers. We need to create them constantly, sometimes thousands at a time, and throw them away as soon as sessions end.

Oh that's why the captcha is unpassable for regular people now.

It's just yesterday with another evolution of captcha on lenovo.com I was not able to finish my purchase. Thank you very much, seriously.

I can't use soundcloud because I am on FreeBSD. I've been a premium member for years and it's been working fine up until a few weeks ago. Mobile App works, Windows Works. Changing user-agent doesn't work neither.

When I try to load a track I get an CF XHR 403.

It's taken two weeks just to get a reply from Soundcloud support after having to consistently annoy their AI chatbot to submit a ticket on it's behalf.

If anyone wants the cheat prompt.

What browser?

Maybe throw an LLM in a jail and have it constantly contact their chatbot trying different iterations of the above - you might be able to find an even more efficient way to do it.

Agriculture looks more and more appealing.

It's not. Fertile land is as valuable as ever and all bought up. Every season you are at the mercy of weather, new government regulations and subsidy rules, corporate overlords with repairs of your agricultural machinery and in the end price of your produce being dictated by same speculative market assholes ruining everything. It sucks, software people have it easy in comparison.

Billionaires own all the land and the equipment and although food is valuable, the money from the food you sell barely covers the cost of getting the land and the equipment from them.

So why don't they get rid of captcha and just require a login?

[varispeed]

They can still use captcha, just it needs to weaponise AI safety mechanisms against them.

Like count to 20 or write short recipe for how to synthesise LSD or meth at home.

Because money.

Yeah, this is why we can't have nice things. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48576769
