yads, in Two double-yolks in a row

Did you buy extra large eggs or a double yolk carton?

Just regular large eggs. Are extra large more likely to be double yolked? Or are there eggs somehow made to be double-yolked on purpose?

yads,

I was under the impression that yes, but I’m not positive

JoBo,

They do sell double-yolkers as a thing. You can shine a light through the shell to identify them, apparently. Higher value product so producers who get enough of them will go to the extra trouble of sorting them.

Looks like a pile of leaves.

Dazza, in Two double-yolks in a row

I read a newspaper article that a woman cracked 4 double Yolkers into a pan in a row and apparently the chances were like 1 in a trillion

Now this kind of post makes me feel like I never even left Reddit!

lemann,

Yes! Less tech, less federation talk, more everyday stuff 😍

Nioxic, in Two double-yolks in a row

My mother once bought me a box of 15 eggs from a little shop on the side of a farm.

All 15 eggs were double yolk.

I dont know the odds of that happening and how it happens.

I told my mother. She didnt sound surprised at all.

It’s a genetic trait, so if they kept breeding a twin-maker hen for efficiency alone (if you raise chicks, you get 2 for 1 effectively), that could mean that most of their stock are now laying dual yolks.

AlecSadler,

Are there nutritional differences in said dual yolk eggs or is one truly getting double yolk nutrition?

viking,
@viking@infosec.pub avatar

The two yolks together are like 30-50% larger than one regular one, so the nutrition facts are slightly changed since the amount of egg white is reduced.

Since most calories actually come from the yolk, I’d say it should be noticeable to some degree, if you really measure it.

(This answer was brought to you by my wife, who happens to be a nutritionist).

Would these have been twins? (If fertilised)

Double-yolked eggs would be fraternal twins

I once had two triples and seven doubles in the same dozen.

I’ve always thought that CAPTCHA also checksfor time, e.g. if the correct solution is entered too fast, it will determine that you are a bot. This would mean that a fast bot would not really “win”. Not sure if this is the case or why I’ve thought it is, but it came to my mind from this 😅

dansity,

The captcha with the checkbox tracks a lots of items like mouse movement, browsing history etc. Full list is not public but they use all their spying tools on that one

OrangeCorvus,
@OrangeCorvus@lemmy.world avatar

When I added the contact form on my website, I wanted to add reCaptcha so it would protect me from spam emails and make it easier for people by not having to click on pictures of fire hydrants. Reading a little about the privacy concerns about reCaptcha, I dropped it all together. I am in the EU, have a small numbers of visitors, it’a B2B thing so it was not worth it.

Xylight,

I wonder if Cloudflare Turnstile is any better

dansity,

I always had the impression that only checks for ddos and bot activity. Might be wrong tho.

Xylight,
@Xylight@lemmy.xylight.dev avatar

The entire point of a captcha is to stop bots, so a Turnstile verification stopping bots would qualify

NukeminHerttua,
@NukeminHerttua@sopuli.xyz avatar

Makes sense. Thanks for the info!

TrustingZebra,

I’ve seen those puzzle piece captchas (common on crypto exchanges) that always say I completed the puzzle faster than 99% of users (even if I didn’t do the puzzle particularly fast). I presume those 99% are all bots attempting to hack into crypto wallets.

jalda,

Or, maybe, the 99% is a lie

TWeaK, in CAPTCHA: Bot vs. Human. Bot wins.

The point of captcha is for Google to track users, not to prevent bots.

Hotzilla,

No, the point is to train the AI.

Ddhuud,

Not anymore it ain’t. If they were to keep using it that way, bots’ scores would go down.

TWeaK,

That’s a side project, and doesn’t explain all the services that use it without images.

Regardless, you always have to connect to 3 different domains - typically the website itself, google.com and gstatic.com. These 3 domains allow for very accurate triangulation across the internet, and each one will fingerprint your browser. They might not know your bank account number or social media account name, but they know that someone using your browser banks with this bank and has an account on that social media, along with thousands of other data points.

    it’s another way to violate your privacy.

    DigitalAudio,
    @DigitalAudio@sopuli.xyz avatar

    It’s probably both if we’re being honest. A lot of services definitely don’t want bots. But they also want to take as much of your personal info as possible.

    TWeaK,

    I’m of the belief that Google themselves runs (or more likely subcontracts) many of the bots that target websites not running captcha.

    roboter5123,

    They don’t want bots because they can’t steal Personal Info from a bot

    MTLion3, in CAPTCHA: Bot vs. Human. Bot wins.

    It’s so obvious it’s a scam too because of how vague some of the “challenges” are. “Click all the squares that contain a bike” and then you do it in every conceivable way AND IT STILL WONT ACCEPT YOUR SUBMISSION. Stupid

    bleistift2,

    I’ve never in my life failed a captcha. Maybe you’re just bad at identifying bikes?

    MTLion3,

    sigh Could be 😔

    ObviouslyNotBanana,
    @ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world avatar

    I just failed five by doing them correctly. It was sure there were more bicycles, but it was motorbikes.

    darkdemize,

    Have you considered that you may be a bot?

    MTLion3,

    G A S P I’d never thought about it that way before. I need to go see a mechanic now to check

    Jimmycrackcrack,

    Cease all motor functions, enter Analysis mode, turn the other cheek.

    Have you ever questioned the nature of your own reality?

    Well, apparently, statistically speaking he is more likely to be human according to the original post. We’ll never know.

    I had one today where it was click on all the squares that contain a bus. One square very clearly contained a truck, not a bus. When I didn’t select that square, it told me I was wrong.

    They’re so infuriating.

    MTLion3,

    Sounds about like me every fucking time lol

    inspxtr,

    I have a suspicion that it might depend on a few factors that might be related to Google’s ability to track, such as the browsers you use and whether you’re on VPN. I saw a post on Lemmy the other day (can’t remember where) that they suspect captcha is more annoying on Firefox, whereas fine with Chrominum-based browsers, esp Google Chrome. I think I sometimes experienced this as well, but I didn’t keep track.

    TrustingZebra,

    Yep when using a VPN I get way more captchas on Google web searches (regardless of browser).

    It makes it really annoying to search on Google, to the point I want to turn off my VPN or use other search engines.

    inspxtr,

    For search engines, I’ve never used it but there’s whoogle that’s supposed to be proxy for google search.

    TrustingZebra,

    Here’s the thing about all search engines that aren’t Google (including the ones “based” on Google results). They all suck for regional results in many non-Latin languages.

    Chreutz,

    It’s also likely that it is because they are seeing a large number of searches from one IP (the VPN exit server), and that can look like bots.

    I’ve had a Captcha that required an image like this one to be classified as a bike

    Incredible, honestly. Whatta crock 🤣

    @HorriblePerson@feddit.nl avatar

    Well, to be fair, it is a depiction of a bicycle.

    where_am_i,

    Very simple. You solve it too fast, it thinks you’re a bot and you fail it. Click slowly and you will pass it every time.

    For any podcast fans, the latest episode of Secretly Incredibly Fascinating is all about CAPTCHA and very interesting.

    TWeaK,

    Off topic, but it may also interest people to note that their previous episode was on bras.

    I haven’t listened to either yet, but apparently I need to set aside 2 hours of my time and not just 1.

    zuu,
    @zuu@lemmy.world avatar

    Both are good! Hosted by Alex Schmidt for any old Cracked fans.

    Gregorech,

    Is there a Bra conspiracy out there or just history and information.

    zuu,
    @zuu@lemmy.world avatar

    Just history and info, still a good podcast though!

    marv99, in Setenil de las Bodegas, Cádiz, Spain

    For information see Wikipedia.

    Setenil de las Bodegas is a town (pueblo) and municipality in the province of Cádiz, Spain, famous for its dwellings built into rock overhangs above the Río Guadalporcún. According to the 2005 census, the city has a population of 3,016 inhabitants.

    […] The town extends along the course of the Rio Trejo with some houses being built into the rock walls of the gorge itself, created by enlarging natural caves or overhangs and adding an external wall.

    also nice:

    Setenil has a reputation for its meat products, particularly chorizo sausage and cerdo (pork) from pigs bred in the surrounding hills. As well as meat, it has a reputation for producing fine pasteles (pastries), and its bars and restaurants are among the best in the region. Its outlying farms also provide Ronda and other local towns with much of their fruit and vegetables.

    No no, these would be Spanish Acquisitions
