recaptcha VS duckduckgo-locales

I know Google has a ReCAPTCHA service, and I think it’s free up to scales I would probably never use up. Still, I’d prefer something than can be self hosted so is totally free. And where you don't have to register your domain with a 3rd party, you can just use it on any domain.

The traditional way of using "I am not a robot" Recpatcha seems to be with a

## Step 1: Obtaining reCAPTCHA Keys Go to the Google reCAPTCHA website (https://www.google.com/recaptcha) and sign in with your Google account. Click the + sign and fill in the details as follows:

* https://www.google.com/recaptcha/ * allow * https://www.gstatic.com/recaptcha/ * allow * https://www.google.com/js/ * allow * captcha.com * allow * recaptcha.net * allow

https://www.google.com/recaptcha/ * allow

Depends on what you mean by "proxying". Everything you do (serving a Single-Page Application or requesting HN by backend, processing it's HTML and sending the content to your own frontend) will take traffic away from news.ycombinator.com and to another domain - which comes with it's own set of dreadful scenarios.

There used to be (and still are) things like https://mreidsma.github.io/bookmarklets/jquerify.html which allow to inject JS on click (and thus would make it possible to transform that site), but I gave it a shot and HN is set up to disallow this:

  Refused to load the script 'https://code.jquery.com/jquery.min.js' because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "script-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' https://www.google.com/recaptcha/ https://www.gstatic.com/recaptcha/ https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/". Note that 'script-src-elem' was not explicitly set, so 'script-src' is used as a fallback.

There's fraud and embezzlement in non-profits all the time. Just entering that in a search engine shows tons of examples: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=fraud+and+embezzlement+in+n...

When I was involved in scouts this was a thing as well; not even always due to malice, sometimes also due to incompetence and/or inattention.

No, I think the inspiration is more direct https://duckduckgo.com/?q=lewis+carroll+alice+in+wonderland+...

Yea caught me, I self reported to try and trick everyone. Jokes aside my comment was based on net neutrality if you don’t remember https://duckduckgo.com/?q=net+neitrality+bot+comments

Some of the stuff that really chipped at our privacy as our isps got to sell our dns pings to advertisers and social media. Have a good day citizen.

AI Chat is separate from the search engine. On the search engine we have DuckAssist, which is currently grounded in Wikipedia (more sources coming): https://duckduckgo.com/?q=what+is+the+stoichiometric+ratio+b...

that one is good, but I detest keyboards with their own magic little dongle since it's a damn fine thing to misplace

I'm surprised OP didn't enjoy https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/surface-ergonomic-keyboard... which is currently listed as out of stock but I dunno if that means "permanently" or what, but they seem to be available via 3rd party channels

Its "klacking" aside, pour one out for https://duckduckgo.com/?q=microsoft+natural+elite+keyboard&t... which I loved, although I'll be straight that I love the Surface Ergonomic better because I think its keytravel is much, much nicer and no weirdo + shaped cursor keys, the inverted T like $diety intended

Sculpture can be tactile. I know it's not purely tactile, but thinking of it in that way is becoming a lot more common (eg at the Louvre). And then I went to find a URL for the tactile dome at the Exploratorium in San Francisco (https://www.exploratorium.edu/visit/tactile-dome) and it turns out there are lots of tactile galleries now:
