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.
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)?
I just tried printing this image but it says my magenta is too low 🤔
Your mind compensates for the teal which makes the white look red.
then why are the other parts still white

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
i used a colour picker and it’s all white and shades of gray.
My phone makes it pink too. But you can still see some effective difference when zooming in/out.
She’s right.
Damn i thought it was a shitpost at first
Here is an 8 minute video that goes into more depth on how this works. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FjjJha7HMI
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.
Is this because our brains have been programmed to see Coca Cola can as red? Or does it have something to do with the way the black and white boxes are organized? (I.e. if it were a sprite can, it would still be red)
The cyan is the one playing the trick. I can see the black and white nature without zooming when focusing on the logo or something. Sometimes it randomly changes from b/w to red
It’s effectively your brain doing automatic white balance, it sees everything being tinted cyan so it just sorta subtracts cyan from the area, which results in white being reddish
you can do this physically (by tiring out the colour-sensing cells in your eyes) if you stare at a colour for about 30 seconds then quickly look at a white surface, you should see the inverse of the first colour.
Someone did a color swap and the can looks blue when the cyan pixels are instead yellow
How come this comment isn’t clickable in the app, and you have to open a browser to see it?
Depends on the Lemmy app you use and your phone preferences for app opening certain links in different apps ( e.g. PayPal specific links may open in the PayPal app)
Thanks, I’m in voyager on Android. In the app settings, I can choose to open the link either “with default browser” or “in app”.
Even if it is set to “in app”, the app renders a browser window instead of just taking me to that comment in the thread.
Weird.
I have myopia so if I place the phone far from my face I can’t see that it is even a can… I still see a little bit of a red area there.

This is a screenshot of it zoomed in…
You tell me if the white looks warm

our minds are filling in red because we see a Coca-Cola can
Our minds are filling in red because of the cyan
Top comment explains it. It’s because of the cyan that it looks red. It’s the complementary primary color

Maybe you also try replacing cyan to magenta and see what happens. Imo the warmth of white does not do anything much

Jokes on you, I’m moderately red green colorblind so I wouldn’t realize it if there was red present
Same here. Those colour fanatics are fantasising again I suppose.
I’m colorblind this trick doesn’t work with me
Do I not see the color because I’m protan or what? Does that even make sense for optical illusions?
Burn the witch!
And what color does white have?
Fucking pattern recognition…
