I’m not autistic but I like most of these things.
i see linux,minecraft,japan(i just like the games that originate from this country mostly),thinkpad,C,Rust
wait…
I think I’m autistic.TIL I am, apparently, as well.
Aside from that weighted blanket, dnd, and my love for maths, I’m not this type of autist at all. Good for those who are though, I’m not hating, just different.
Japan, Lemmy, Minecraft. Damn, I think I’m autistic.
No Sonic mention? Shame
Magic the Gathering and D&D
You’re absolutely right! I’ve edited the meme to contain your suggestions.
Me except im not that intrested in Japan (I love Vietnam tho), im not that intrested in Minecraft (ive just played it for too long), not that intrested in Pokémon (never got into it). You forgot a few things tho
- Programming socks
- Star Trek
- :3
- Mechanical keyboards
- Walkable cities (and a general obsession with people focused city planning)
Socks as in Berkeley Sockets or socks with programming Lingo on them?
Neither, thigh highs :3
I feel personally attacked, how did you know my entire personality
Not a fan of Japan tbh
The flag is a big plus
No, that’s Switzerland
Is this how I find out I’m autistic??
This is how you find out you’re cool 😎
Cool and autistic 😎
is this an engineering meme?
Based on posts around here, the Roman Empire.
i’m not a fan of it at all, it was a country of rapists the way they invaded their neighboring countries.
I obsess over half of these things and my kids’ mom the other. Our kids never stood a chance.
Why is Lain so popular these days? I still have my rips from 20 years ago on an old hard drive.
I just don’t seem to understand.
The kids find her “gen z stare” relatable
The opening song Duvet became popular on tiktok and a new generation got to know Lain thanks to that
We started living in a terminally online cyberpunk dystopia around 2020.
if you’re that online, you should consider going offline more, tbh, meeting people irl is great :P
A shame, you seemed an honest man.
I see a flag. I like flags. Especially the Japanese flags. I don’t specifically care for Japan, but the flag is one of my favourites. I prefer flags with low entropy: so I wrote a script once that ranks the nations flags by entropy so I could quantify my preference. Thanks for letting me infodump a bit.
I also love flags, flags are so beautiful (except the flag of Haiti, fuck you Haiti with your MS paint looking flag)
Their previous version was indeed without the coat of arms. Much cooler I think. During that time the Liechtenstein flag was identical, but they (Liechtenstein) changed it upon discovery.
I love that you have multiple people replying to you asking for technical details on how you ranked the flag entropy. This is how you know that you are amongst your people here <3
Well you gotta share that ranking now…
I owe it to the community. Since I don’t have it anymore I am coding it up again. Allow me some time - it’s weekend and I have family to look after.
And that script. I’m curious how you implemented it.
What is it about the flag of Japan that you like so much?
Simplicity I suppose. Colour combination. In my opinion if i can draw it from memory it’s a good flag.
Two colors, with a basic shape centered? I guess it’s ok.
How are you defining the entropy of a flag?
i’d define it as size of an svg file that represents the flag, since more complex flag -> more fundamental elements (rectangles, circles) needed -> bigger file size -> more entropy.
Subtracting it’s normalized negentropy from 1
How do you rate entropy? Is the script open source so we can see it?
I tried different definitions and settled on spectral entropy. This one uses fourier transform and (I think) this takes the spacial relation of the pixels into account, as opposed to the more common Shannon definition. I’d like to share it but am not sure on how to do that: were I to use GitHub I would doxx myself.
…and what is the stack ranked result?
“Welcome to fun with flags!”
