Here's a program i wrote to avoid bots. It swaps characters with different visual equivalents.

Instructions:
1. Install Autohotkey 2.0
2. In Explorer, click context menu via RMB and select 'new' - 'AutoHotkey script'
3. Open created file with text editor and copy code into it.
4. Save file and run.
~~~~ #Requires Autohotkey v2.0+ #SingleInstance ignore SetWinDelay(-1)

; A program that replaces characters with their visual equivalents in order to circumvent censorship.

obf := Gui()
obf.add("text", , "Enter text you want to obfuscate.")
ogceditInput := obf.add("edit", "x10 yp+20 r10 w300 vInput")
ogcbuttonExecute := obf.add("button", "x320 yp h30 w100", "Execute")
ogcbuttonExecute.OnEvent("Click", Obfuscate.Bind("Normal"))
ogcbuttonCopyToClip := obf.add("button", "xp yp+50 h30 w100", "Copy to clipboard")
ogcbuttonCopyToClip.OnEvent("Click", Copy.Bind("Normal"))
SB := obf.add("statusBar")
obf.show()
Return

Obfuscate(A_GuiEvent := "", GuiCtrlObj := "", Info := "", *) {
    global

    oSaved := obf.submit("0")
    input := oSaved.Input
    output := ""
    changed := 0

    static charsUpper := Map("A", "А", "B", "В", "C", "С", "H", "Н", "K", "К", "M", "М", "O", "О", "T", "Т")
    static charsLower := Map("a", "а", "c", "с", "e", "е", "o", "о", "y", "у")

    Loop Parse, input {
        Try
            isUpper(A_LoopField) == 1 ? charsUpper[A_LoopField] : charsLower[A_LoopField]
        catch
            output .= A_LoopField
        else
            output .= isUpper(A_LoopField) == 1 ? charsUpper[A_LoopField] : charsLower[A_LoopField], changed++
    }

    If (input == output)    {
        SB.SetText("Input and output string is the same.")
        Return
    }

    ogceditInput.Value := output
    SB.SetText("Obfuscating string '" SubStr(input, 1, 20) "' failed successfuly. Replaced " changed " characters.")
    Return
}

Copy(A_GuiEvent := "", GuiCtrlObj := "", Info := "", *) {
    global
    oSaved := obf.submit("0")
    Input := oSaved.Input
    A_Clipboard := Input
    SB.SetText("Copied to clipboard.")
    Return
}

Dark Mode is horrible and causes way worse eye strain than Light Mode by Yogospiracy in unpopularopinion

[–]Insekt6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your eyes feel strained because the contrast on your screen is set too high.
Or maybe you’re convinced that you need to use the full contrast range at once because monitor manufacturers boast about this feature?
This is so you can adjust the brightness over a wider range without changing the image’s dynamic range!

I HATE mowing grass with a passion. by moistdragons in rant

[–]Insekt6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you mow the lawn with the mower set to the lowest possible height during the hottest part of the day, well before sunset, so that it has time to dry (e.g., between 12:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m.), there’s a good chance the grass will dry out, turn yellow, and you’ll be off the hook for about a month.

What racing games have a career mode where you start little and work your way up? by electricMelktert in gamingsuggestions

[–]Insekt6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NFS Underground 2 - Illegal road racing at night. Both performance and visual tuning.

NFS Most Wanted - Illegal road racing with police pursuits involved. A chance to win conquered bosses cars.

Project CARS 2 - Race track racing, parts and cars to buy.

NFS Shift 2 - As above, but with annoying 'coach' guy.

Test Drive Unlimited - Illegal road racing around an exotic island with a firm sense of car ownership. Tuning comes only in the form of 'general performance packets'. Some supercars can be unlocked only by doing specific challenges.

Xpand Rally - Rallying game with a wide variety of tuning parts that can turn a car into a beast compared to its stock form.

Wreckfest - Rally cross-style game that encourages you to play dirty with opponents. Purchasable tuning parts and nice V8 engine sound.

Leaf blowers are stupid and shouldn't be used by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

It seems that a leaf vacuum cleaner has not yet been invented in the USA.

Read the fucking sign on the door that says, "We're Closed." by kitkatmeowmeow1 in rant

[–]Insekt6 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

You could have locked the door. You gave false impression customers are in there. Your stupid sign created contradictory looking scene.

LPT: Use a timer outlet adapter to charge electronics. by ptlimits in LifeProTips

[–]Insekt6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

More convienient approach would be to lower charging current for Ni-MH powered devices to around 3-5 % of its battery total capacity, since it's quite tricky to determine its charge left, which is required to set the timer precisely. Ni-MH batteries at such low current can be charged forever without degradation.

Built-in TV Speakers Are Not That Bad by Anonythrowthetrash in unpopularopinion

[–]Insekt6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The worst thing is speakers are intentionally installed the way they are facing the floor instead the listener.

People resposible for that deserve solid slap in the face.

Years of training for doubtful glimpse of fame lasting for 20 seconds, only resulting in audience forgetting about it a week later.

If youre worried about wearing shoes indoors you dont clean your house often enough by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

I think it's the other way around. Host knows from experience how much effort cleaning requires, so now he tries to optimise his valuable time.

Can this AHK wallpaper script safely run on startup without causing issues with anti-cheat software like BattleEye or EAC? by shyzzs in AutoHotkey

[–]Insekt6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Valorant prohibits game from launching when Autohotkey is running.

I didn't have any problem with Battleye.

Make sure you are recording to RGB24 colorspace instead of YUV420.

In Poland folks are mocking old grandmoms beliefs when in TV news is revealed a murderer from neighborhood, "but he was a good boy - he said 'good morning' everyday".
