You could just go to Lemvotes and figure out the specific users who did as well.

Yeah, your upvotes and downvotes are public.

For the cost of one orbital data centre, you could probably build 10 terrestrial data centres, bribe literally everyone involved in the construction to pretend that they built it in space, buy an island, fake your death, and spend the rest of your life off-grid.

I'm guessing that they might have been a bit worried about people actually dying at the event rather than just people being sweaty.

Sure, but we don't have to give our biometric data to a US weapons manufacturer in order to purchase alcohol.

I don't get why people want to eat the rich so much. Doesn't that cause prion disease?

It's a warehouse, not a store.

Which is why I tried asking other people who saw black and blue what black and blue they are seeing. The image on the right shows a deep black and navy blue, something I just do not see reflected in the left image.

The Salvation Army in South Africa did an advertisement (to raise awareness against violence against women) showing a yellow and gold dress and it's closer to what is shown in the image than what is shown in the original. Presumably, they wouldn't see that dress as black and blue.

So, in the video, when you looked at this:

You saw a dark black and a navy blue? Or is it only in the context of the full image that you're seeing it as dark black and navy blue?

So, when you say that you never understood how anyone saw gold are you

a) Seeing an extremely washed out image and compensating
or
b) You are literally seeing a solid black and a navy blue i.e. there's basically an insignificant amount of difference to your eye between the black part of the dress and #000000

If it's the former that might explain some of the difference in opinion, if it's the latter then I have no idea how I would manage to interpret it as black.

I guess it depends. Are people looking at the left image and going "Yep, that is definitely a dark black and navy blue"? Using a colour picker, the darker areas show up as somewhere around #7a6642, which definitely isn't the black #231e16 we see on the right. Same with the lighter spots: we're seeing something around #8596bb, which again isn't the navy blue of #3a45c3

Quite simply, I cannot make the dress in the left image look like the dress in the right, even if the dress in those images are supposed to be identical.

It looks like this for me. Granted I'm on Piefed so that's probably part of the reason.

If you buy them off Steam you don't actually own the game. You own a license to play the game, and that license is non-transferable and can be revoked. Doesn't matter if it's on your hard drive.
