Hi all! I hope it's ok to bother this list with this question/suggestion/rant about the forum registration process. I've been using arch for a couple of months now and I'm very happy with it. Today, I somewhat broke my box so I was excited to post my first question to the forums at bbs.archlinux.org. On the bottom of the registration page there was a very clever "captcha". The question was: What is the output of "date -u +%V$(uname)|sha256sum|sed 's/\W//g'"? I might even have found this funny if I wasn't ON A NON-LINUX LAPTOP. <rant> I'm sorry, but this is ridiculous. To be honest I am extremely annoyed because this barrier is so unnecessary. Why is there not just a simple normal captcha that helps Google with house numbers or something. It looks to me like someone wanted to demonstrate that whoever is not able to find the solution to *such* a simple question is not worthy of the forums. Only they failed to consider that possibly there might be situations where even the cleverest person just *can't* find the solution to a question like this. </rant> Could this please please please be replaced with a real captcha? Also, this is obviously absolutely unsuitable to tell computers and humans apart (if that's what was intended), considering that the result only changes once a week and any unix machine could easily calculate the result. Aaanyway. Could someone please give me the solution? I'd still like to join the forums once I calmed down :) FE
