Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:18.4

Every Tuesday on the show, we do things that make you good, good, the small things that drive you mad.

0:24.3

What's it for you?

0:25.0

You can text me 0475-03-1043.

0:30.0

For me, why suddenly do I need to deny except all cookies?

0:35.6

I've led a cookie life.

2:21.1

And I'm not up to anything dodgy. Why do we need to deny except all cookies. I've led a cookie life. And I'm not up to anything dodgy. Why do we need to, do we need to deny everything? And they know exactly that we have no idea what it means. You know where they say, oh, or you can choose your own preferences. I don't know. I don't have time. I don't have time for that life. And you have all my information. Just take it. You know what I'm up to? What is this sick game you're playing with me? Exactly. Honestly, I reckon about 90% of being an adult, it's registering your details to buy something. Yes. And then they go, hang on, we need to verify that email address. Why do I be lying? I'm just getting these cheap-ass socks and some jocks. Yes, I don't need an account. I don't create a whole account just to do that. Then you need my email address to verify, get that number and you're just a scam. You get my details. Yes, yes. Except all cookies, denial cookies, whatever you want with me. Very dull lifestyle. It's not going to a security agency. I'm not up to anything. If they're looking at it, go, who is this dull man? He really likes cheap jocks and socks. I'd have to put in all my details to just get vacuum bags the other day. Yeah, that, that. Something as simple as that. Yeah, it takes so long. It's like the amount of calories you have to expand. And I've heard enough of that capture thing as well. Oh, God. You're going to verify, the way we're going to verify what it is to be a human is through how many fire hydrants I can spot. That's out of all the amazing thing it is to be human. The way you can cadence down, what makes a human in this, you know, artificial age? The thing that's uniquely human is how many bicycles I can spot. And I actually find it really difficult. It makes me cool. Because what they do, three of them you get bang, bang, bang. And they go, hang on a minute, there's a handlebar. A touch of a handlebar one of them is that four traffic light bicycle or bicycle is that a motorbike yeah and then you feel like an idiot they go

2:27.4

bab-bang like you're a robot you know no I'm just an idiot I'm not a robot someone told me that

2:33.2

the way that's designed it is not designed on actually how many you spot the three, the four, the five high hydrants or whatever. It's a traffic lights. It's actually how you move the cursor. Really? Oh, I don't like that. No. Because now I'm going to be so self-conscious. Me too. I'm trying to outthink the machine and like, what hope have I got?

2:56.3

Why bother?

2:58.0

Well, they'll be going, this is my most intelligent machine we've ever seen.

3:00.8

No, actually, it's a humanoid.

3:03.2

Ford you, Elon Musk sat the other side of the screen watching me, how I moved the cursor

3:09.9

because a human would move it a stunt way, whereas a spam bot wouldn't.

3:14.1

It would use it in a more economical way.

3:16.0

Right.

3:16.6

As we go, you have a video.

3:19.2

Oh my God, I'm so human.

3:23.0
