This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Ok, i just dont see it then.
It's a demonstration of how tinting can make two different colors appear the same. Zoom in and you'll see it
Left vs right:
Holy shit.
Holy shit, what? Both colours displayed are the exact same colour.
I don't see it either. I still see it clearly as black and blue on the left and gold and white on the right, even with the filter they are trying to apply overlaid.
There is nothing to "see". They are, on your screen, identically coloured on the left and right in the "boxed" sections.
Yes, they look different to you. They are not actually different colours. That is the optical illusion.
