A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Mixing every color using light = white

Mixing every color using pigments (paint, ink, etc.) = black

True, but I think maybe you missed this being about additive and subtractive color mixing.

My color processing system is neither additive nor subtractive, at least not in the contemporary sense.

My system adds, subtracts, and adjusts the actual colors, without interfering with the brightness.

Dude your mom adds, subtracts and adjusts the actual colors without interfering with the brightness.
