Captcha Welcome Mat

  This is funny but I worry most people wouldn't get joke. I'm not sure how best to convey "This is a captcha". Maybe add other "noise" and the printed text "Type the letters above to enter" or something like that.

  Though, maybe the subtlety of this is the point. A way to be nerdy without being completely obvious. "I guess that person just likes a wavy 'Welcome' text mat" vs iykyk

    You are at the very top of Mount Autism my friend. I should have expected this.

      The parent commenter is just saying that it’s not executed well enough for most people to get the joke, and I agree. Here a better one: https://x.com/markpike/status/1442565924440002563

  I loved the chatbot where you can haggle a bit. I really need that back and forth in my online shopping experiences.

    Chatbots could be useful for Middle East haggling.

      This dance of insincerity infuriates me as a concept. Imagine how utterly exhausting it would be if every social interaction was characterized by so much wasted time pretending.
