Stupidest captcha ever.

Submitted by wakanasakai on June 13, 2013 - 9:49am

I'm not sure where this topic should go, but I'll try here.

When I registered here, I got the following captcha.

who gives you "4x better clean"?

What kind of STUPID captcha is that? & why is the drop-down answer "Don't know" WRONG? Does whoever came up with that captcha REALLY think that I spend my whole life watching & memorizing every stupid toothpaste commercial, hoping that some jerk will finally invent the STUPIDEST captcha of ALL TIME?!

I have a java application that requires 512 MB ​​of heap memory to work, in practice should pass these values ​​to the virtual machine "-Xmx512m -XX:MaxDirectMemorySize=1024m", there is' a way to pass these values ​​with jPortabeLaucher? Without these values, jPortableLauncher returns "Out Of Memory Error".
Thanks for the help

User ID login/password problem

Submitted by Hans Henderson on June 6, 2013 - 8:21am

Sorry if this isn't the right spot, didn't see a "site support" forum.

Every time I log in, my password doesn't work.

I request a new one, open my email, use the temp login link, change the password, no go every time.

So now every time I have business here that requires me to login, I have to use the "request a password" temporary login.

Latest Chrome. Both using LastPass auto-remember and a regular login. Also tried with IE, no go.

Not a major issue I suppose, but thought I'd let you know.
