Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

You're given the challenge to solve by the server, yes. But just because the challenge is provided to you, that doesn't mean you can fake your way through it.
You still have to calculate the answer before you can get any farther. You can't bullshit/spoof your way through the math problem to bypass it, because your correct answer is required to proceed.
Unless the server gives you a well-known problem you have the answer to/is easily calculated, or you find a vulnerability in something like Anubis to make it accept a wrong answer, not really. You're stuck at the interstitial page with a math prompt until you solve it.
Unless I'm misunderstanding your position, I'm not sure what the disconnect is. The original question was about spoofing the challenge client side, but you can't really spoof the answer to a complicated math problem unless there's an issue with the server side validation.
@Passerby6497 my stance is that the LLM might recognize that the best way to solve the problem is to run chromium and get the answer from there, then pass it on?
Congrats on doing it the way the website owner wants! You're now into the content, and you had to waste seconds of processing power to do so (effectively being throttled by the owner), so everyone is happy. You can't overload the site, but you can still get there after a short wait.
@Passerby6497 yes I’ve been told as much 😅

Jokes aside, I understand this was the point. I just wanted to make the point that it is feasible, if not currently economically viable
