Nonsense. My phone screen uses red, green, and blue to make up each pixel. The white pixels have their red component all the way at full brightness. Therefore there is a lot of red in the picture.
You could also see this by opening up the image and looking at the red channel which would not be completely black.
I just tried printing this image but it says my magenta is too low 🤔
Texts on computers is made this way, so use a magnifying glass on black white text in a word document (for example) and you’ll see lots of colors. zoom in using the computer and you will still just see black/white.
So that’s why I can’t print greyscale documents when my yellow ink is too low!
Ha ha nah thats because all (color) printers also print a unique pattern with yellow, so that anything from your printer can be traced back to it
Can plz anyone find a link (am at home with wrecked right arm)?
Yeah, that was the point of the joke
But you’re right, better leave a link, the more people know, the better
Still red with no logo.
White light has red in it. Cyan does not. We fatigue blue and green cones everywhere but the white can, and we only stimulate the red cones on the white can. The result is it looks red.
Thank you. I thought this was going to be like the dress.
Your mind compensates for the teal which makes the white look red.
Here is an 8 minute video that goes into more depth on how this works. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FjjJha7HMI
Hm… when I glance at it, yeah I see the white is very very light pink. But once I focus on the details, I see no trace of red.
Burn the witch!
The “white” is actually very pale pink. At least on my phone screen
When I zoom in on my phone, it’s absolutely white
Must be hardware variant
I had that issue on an old phone, could very well be hardware variance.
Might have a blue light filter on your phone or something
That tends to make your phone screen look yellow/orange. Pink is a different thing.
My phone was old when i got it a couple years ago so yeah
My phone makes it pink too. But you can still see some effective difference when zooming in/out.
Do I not see the color because I’m protan or what? Does that even make sense for optical illusions?
Great lectures on this kind of thing:
…I was gonna say it took until it was shrunk down to the thumbnail to see red, but nope, it actually has red in it in the thumbnail.
Guess this is specific to how often you see cans of coca-cola?
Here, I put the image through a ditherer (only available colours are black, cyan, white). I don’t see any red at all now.
[edit}
Actually, that “red” is mostly just gray so I played myself here. Still, the luminosity must be closer to red before I detect it as red, white doesn’t do it.
