"If you tell a lie big enough and tell it frequently enough, people will eventually come to believe it". What is an example of this happening today?
  • The simple version is that color blindness is caused by a physical problem with your eyes. If you don't have the parts required to detect certain colors then no glasses are going to fix that. They're just tinted glasses, the guy in the video tries three different pairs from different companies and all they do is tint the world a hideous shade of pink/magenta.

    As someone else said above, what they can do is change your ability to differentiate between objects of slightly different colors. You might have a really hard time telling the difference between red and green, but find it easier to tell the difference between hideous vaguely reddish magenta and hideous vaguely greenish magenta. They don't grant you a greater range of color vision, but they do change what color is actually hitting your eyes. Mostly into hideous magenta.

    FWIW the guy in the video points out that in his experience it generally made colors harder, not easier, to differentiate.

  • The beginning of Twoxchromosomes!
  • I understand that the reddit one was created in a different time, but I feel like in 2023 there's no excuse for making the name of your general womens' forum overtly transphobic

  • uhhh... what do I call the "subreddits"?
  • There could be different linux communities on different instances, and to see them all you'd have to subscribe to them and sort by subscribed view. But yeah, in practice most of the time there will emerge one "main" linux community and, if it gets big enough, likely offshoot communities for different philosophies or more specificity.

  • Thoughts on Gacha?
  • Gacha mechanics are a plague on video games. Truly dystopian shit. But not all gacha games are that bad. Just most of them. Genshin is basically just breath of the wild but more jank.
