The way I mentioned, yellow and blue don’t blend to make that sort of green. Comes out a lot duller than the green shown in the drawing:

It’s a play on how real skin color tends to work. Most of the time, (but not always,) the child tends to get a skin shade somewhere between the parents. Just like if you averaged the colors.
Using that same logic, the second pencils would have expected a yellowish-blue baby. Instead they got the technically correct, but unexpected color of green.
The joke comes from how colors are mixed. Red and white will always make pink but green and blue make different colors depending on if you’re adding or subtracting colors.
Additive color (RGB) is when you shine red green and blue flashlights at a wall. If all three meet, you get white light.
Subtractive color (CMY) is where you add pigments to a surface that absorb certain colors. Adding cyan, magenta, and yellow pigments results in a black surface since all light gets absorbed. (Normally it’s CMYK for printing where K is black so you can get deeper blacks)

Browsing Steam on an ultrawide monitor leaves an awful lot of unused space.

Hmmmm… In that scene he was lying. He very much did care. So the meme is really saying that you do care about what people with anime profile pics say, but you just don’t want to admit it… 😆

No idea. I’ve never needed to use things like alt text, so I wouldn’t know.
I don’t think I can view alt text on the Summit app 🫤
Plus, cast iron can 100% get dirty. Baked on food, rust, rancid oil, etc. Sometimes the easiest thing to do is just scrub it all off and re-season the pan.
Bubs@lemmy.zipto Cybersecurity@sh.itjust.works•7-Zip Arbitrary File Write Vulnerability Let Attackers Execute Arbitrary CodeEnglish5·5 days agoFrom the article about what is vulnerable:
For Linux systems, attackers need the target to be using a vulnerable 7-Zip version while extracting an archive format that supports symbolic links, such as ZIP, TAR, 7Z, or RAR files.
On Windows systems, additional requirements must be met for successful exploitation. The 7-Zip extraction process must have elevated privileges or operate in Windows Developer Mode to create symbolic links. This makes Windows systems somewhat less susceptible but not immune to the attack.
So Linux users would have to scan for symbiotic links beforehand, and Windows users just need to never run with elevated privileges, or scan beforehand if they do (I’m assuming that elevated privileges means “run as administrator”?)
Good forbid someone wants to read the text lol
The English text needs some drop shadow or something…
Bubs@lemmy.zipto Global News@lemmy.zip•US | Three more victims of 9/11 identified, almost 24 years laterEnglish52·8 days agoWas confused at first from the title, wondering how they found new victims (one of them being on the plane). The article is about how they identified the remains of two people recovered after 9/11.
Apparently there are still over a thousand victims still not identified. Roughly 1,100 out of the 2,977 victims have still yet to be identified 😟
That’s right!
It goes in the square hole!
In the most technical way, that green is what you would get.
If you blend the colors with a gradient, you get these, which to me feels like a more natural blend:
More muddied and dull versus the technically correct color.
