I took up an electronics hobby this year, after a VERY LONG TIME since I last did any soldering. I can't read the bands anymore. My eyesight is just too bad to tell the difference between the red and the brown or even the orange, depending on the light and what other color bands are there. So its good I have a little component tester that I quickly check my parts on before I use them.
I got stuck in one of those last week. For half an hour I was very clearly a robot. Until I tried a different way to reset my password. Still might be a robot, I don't think those things have ever let me continue...
This would have been easier than the site I was on earlier today. It kept trying to get me to click either bicycles or motorcycles, but I'm sure itself was confused on which was which.
I swear if I get that one with the yellow bicycle sculpture/rack again Ima drive down to google and kick some ass. I fail every time I don't pick it, then tried picking it a few times, still fail.
What’s crazy is, folks who mess with circuitry for a living will just know resistor values at a glance. My Dad could complete this test as quickly as one where you find stop signs, and it is intimidating as HELL to grow up seeing things like that daily.
In the 80's I learned the code as "Bad Boys Rape Our Young Girls But Violet Gives Willingly", which I recently learned was changed from "Black Boys Rape Our Young Girls But Violet Gives Willingly"... I'm really glad younger generations are getting way more enlightened and sensitive to social diversity... Being nice to other people is a good thing

red red brown gold? Electronics classes were 10 years ago

Maaaaan... When I learned the bands for resisters, it was close to 20 years ago. you think i'm gonna remember that now?

red red brown... I'm not sure there are any, but it's hard to tell with so few pixels.

Red red brown gold (bit more pixels)

There are six potentiometers! This is bullshit!

As an EE, fuck that. Those blue bitches are the worst. Dont know why I don't see white ones... kind of makes more sense to make them white actually

I didn’t need my password reset anyways.

They got a clay coloured body with red red brown yellow banding, but you gotta give me an image that's not tiny and jpg'd to fuck @OP

You forgot the potentiometers. Back to the drawing board.

My partner in EE101 was colorblind. Poor guy.

Why is the color washed out?

... fuck it, I'll hack the access instead.

As a colorblind person, I'm screwed

This is at least doable, if you know the resistor codes.

I had one asking to select tractors, there was only one tractor, but wanted me to select a telehandler and a combine harvester...

The point is to confuse you. reCaptcha isn't tracking what boxes you click, it's tracking your mouse movements.

Nah just train an ai. I just need 400,000 images of resistors with values already identified as a training set.

I’m colorblind. This chart is useless. I use a multimeter.

We could train a bit to do it! Wait...

That's how you can tell this chart is authentic. Something incredibly obvious and simple STILL somehow made it past QA

What if there is no gap between bands 3 and 4?
tr26
When is there not a gap on a 6 bander?
Snooj
Then it contraindicates illiterate stability.
guardianzero
... Actually, i don't know. probably a different chart. it's been a long time since I cared about the value of a resistor.
conglacious
you need a gap to tell direction
conglacious
wouldn't want to end up installing it the wrong direction
