It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

I can't even tell which side is before and which side is after

In both pictures, the left is before and the right is after.

Weird how it desaturates in the first one but adds saturation in the second one

i have a feeling one of the pictures has it reversed but we can't tell because we're looking at screenshots of screenshots

I, too, am a philistine who finds these changes to be, if not imperceptible then inconsequential.

I just thought the second one looked better on the right and the first one looked better on the left

FWIW I was being sincere, about myself anyway; I can’t speak for you.

It might be much more noticable as an actual video, or at the full 4K resolution, but posting these low-resolution still side-by-sides just makes the OP look like a snob.

Wait, what? lol

I don’t think you know what the word ‘snob’ means.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

a person who believes that their tastes in a particular area are superior to those of other people.

I.E. someone who rants about one thing being significantly worse than another, but provides examples of the two things that are basically indistinguishable from one another.

Like I said, maybe the actual video supports the point, these shrunken still screenshots do not.

That’s not what a snob is. I just posted links to the pictures so you can see for yourself. It definitely isn’t indistinguishable, especially if you look at Tom Arnold’s face. It’s quite the opposite actually and if calling out weird AI smoothing is being a snob than it seems a large portion of people are.
