[BKKdreaming]

I use "Control + " a couple of timers to enlarge so I might be able to read it ,

its still a pain but what can you do ? and once I tried to listen, but it sounded like Klingon !

and once I tried to listen, but it sounded like Klingon !

Yeah I tried the listening option and nearly shit myself as an EVP-like noise came out of my speakers saying what to me sounded like " WE LIVE ON! HELL IS REAL!"

I was expecting what I thought reading the text was " subsidy" and " react"

Honorary Pita, what do you mean by 'old people'?

I am 73 , my eye sight is not the best anymore, but I had no problems of deciphering that captcha.

The captchas are not the real problem. It is why we need to have them that is the problem. No bots spying on the web and there would be no need for captchas.

There are already solutions to this available and in growing use.

Sites are more often letting you join or log in with your gmail or facebook credentials. These methods don't have a turing test when used.

You actually give your gmail or facebook username and password to those sites?

The log in is performed in a window served by the credential holder.

The site does not get to see or capture your password, they only get a confirmation of a successful log in.

Although, if anyone really wanted my facebook login they're welcome to it.

That so?

OK, I'll bite: Please send it to me.
