Elizabeth Warren Campaign Staffers Get Tattoos On Their Arms That Look Exactly Like Holocaust Camp Tattoos, Because They're #Smart

Wow.

The tweets have now been deleted. But here they were:

warrenholocaust.jpg

warrenholocaust2.jpg

"Hex" I assume means hexidecimal code, where which is a base-16 system. Numbers beyond 9 are represented by letters: 10 = A, 11 = B, 12 = C, 13 = D, 14 = E, 15 = F. Numbers beyond that use multiple digits, so "30" would be 1E.

The hexidecimal system is used in two main contexts: Character statistics in the Traveler Role Playing Game, and to designate colors (with each two-number group indicating one value in the Red-Green-Blue trinity).

Apparently Elizabeth Warren adopted "Liberty Green" as her main campaign color theme, so this "hex code tattoo" is just what you'd input to put this pale pastel green on your gay-ass website.

And it also looks just like a Holocaust tattoo.

So it has the added benefit of reminding us that these coddled weakling Millennial brats think that working for this old bat for a couple of months is like being at Auschwitz.

I mean, in a way: Sure.

But in other ways, not so much.

119 My father had a crossed-out tattoo on his forearm.

Over the years, several times I asked him what it originally said. He refused to talk about it. To this day, I don't know what the tattoo originally depicted or said. He's a gazillion years old now, and yet the crossed out tattoo is still faintly visible.

It all looked very primitively done, like a prison tattoo made with a ball-point pen.

Knowing my father, I wouldn't be surprised if it WAS a prison tattoo made with a ball-point pen.

I believe those are called the three primary hues. Hues, like paint, are subtractive, in that a color paint appears that color by NOT reflecting other shades of light.

Whereas actual color, shot out of a tv or lcd screen, is additive. You add wavelenths of color.

Anyway, the three primary hues are indeed red blue yellow, but the three primary colors are red blue green.

Supposedly, television engineers went with red, green, and blue because they most closely approximate the wavelengths that the three types of human eye cone cells can perceive.

It's just a matter of blending intensity across those three wavelength peaks to give the illusion of other colors.

No, I think you're slightly misunderstanding it.

The "color wheel" is based on actual physics, and the three "primaries" are red, blue and yellow.

The "red/blue/green" spectrum is NOT based on reality/physics, but instead on some cultural artifact of humans. I forget what, exact -- maybe the colors that cathode ray tubes can emit, or something like that. It is not equal, or parallel, or equivalent to the reality based red/blue/yellow primaries.

So what was the purpose of shooting them and haling them back to town. The county farm association would pay a $5 bounty on each of them because they were so destructive of farm land located near the river and feeder streams when they flooded them out.

251 @168: "Is that where we get "four color printing" from?"

Yup, and one of the greatest computing challenges throughout the late '80s and early '90s was figuring out the differences between how colors looked on a computer screen, and how they appeared on a properly calibrated four color printing press.

Literal metric fucktons of money was spent trying to figure out that problem in the digital pre-press and commercial printing industry.

Seems trivial nowadays, but it was anything but.

253 167 @91: "i thought the 3 basic colors were Red, Blue and Yellow?"

Supposedly, television engineers went with red, green, and blue because they most closely approximate the wavelengths that the three types of human eye cone cells can perceive.

It's just a matter of blending intensity across those three wavelength peaks to give the illusion of other colors.

I know it's required by the Rock Gods that everybody cream in their jeans over Made in Japan but I can't get through those endless wank-off solos. I prefer the studio versions. And Blackmore did the same exact thing when he spun off into Rainbow. I freakin' LOVED Rainbow's albums and was so disappointed when I saw them live and was bored to death by 20-minute versions of "Man on the Silver Mountain" and shit.

395 More interested in Trump's reaction to whatever comes off the Hill re FISA than the pandemic panic. Will have to wait for that.

Meanwhile, AL senate candidate endorsed by Trump seems to be somewhere between former chief of staff Mulvaney and AOC on illegal mass migration, and legal immigration. Based on his public comments. Notwithstanding his disastrous failings as AG, Sessions would not be yet another useless "GOP" seat warmer on these key issues.

Can't blame Trump for the country simply not caring enough about what it says it cares about to actually vote appropriately, I guess.

405 @199: "You can do pretty good color with 4 ink printers but high end printers may have 8, 10, 12 or more colors of ink for better and more vivid color reproduction."

Yeah, commercial printing is kinda fun when you get into the production details.

For example, back in the day, AT&T had a very specific blue color they used for their 2D globe logo, and it was often more cost effective to print the logo with a fifth ink blended to that exact color, overlaid on top of the usual CMYK.

And, yeah, if you get into photorealistic printing, rather than newspaper and junk mail type printing, then there are specific color shades that just won't "pop" without additional color inks. Many shades of greens, and gradients from one type of green to another, are notoriously hard to get right with CMYK alone.

Then there are metallic inks, semi-transparent inks, glosses, etc., and the different ways you can layer everything from the paper upwards, and boy oh boy, paper doesn't always have to be pure white either, and underlying paper types change the way colors appear too.

One of my personal theories about Bloomberg's candidacy was him wanting to preempt Hillary entering the race in case of a contested convention or Biden falling ill late in the process.

He never expected to win, but actually being in the race, spending as much personal money as he did, and promising to spend more in case of emergency, all gave him a moral claim that she couldn't top.

Closing schools isn't about saving the kids.

Thankfully, this strain of coronavirus has very little impact on children; few outward symptoms, almost zero mortality.

But grade schools, and grade school aged kids, are basically glorified petri dishes, and they could spread the disease very quickly to parents and grandparents with much more dangerous results.

=-==================================

People voted for Trump because they hated Hillary more, not because they liked him.

Now Trump is outright hated and is facing an incredibly likable opponent. It's a disastrous matchup for the Pres and he needed a roaring economy and booming stock market so he could ask voters "are you better off than you were four years ago" and they'd answer yes.

He can still run on the judiciary, but that's the only weapon in his arsenal.

484 More interested in Trump's reaction to whatever comes off the Hill re FISA than the pandemic panic. Will have to wait for that.

Meanwhile, AL senate candidate endorsed by Trump seems to be somewhere between former chief of staff Mulvaney and AOC on illegal mass migration, and legal immigration. Based on his public comments. Notwithstanding his disastrous failings as AG, Sessions would not be yet another useless "GOP" seat warmer on these key issues.

Can't blame Trump for the country simply not caring enough about what it says it cares about to actually vote appropriately, I guess.

515 405 @199: "You can do pretty good color with 4 ink printers but high end printers may have 8, 10, 12 or more colors of ink for better and more vivid color reproduction."

Yeah, commercial printing is kinda fun when you get into the production details.

For example, back in the day, AT&T had a very specific blue color they used for their 2D globe logo, and it was often more cost effective to print the logo with a fifth ink blended to that exact color, overlaid on top of the usual CMYK.

And, yeah, if you get into photorealistic printing, rather than newspaper and junk mail type printing, then there are specific color shades that just won't "pop" without additional color inks. Many shades of greens, and gradients from one type of green to another, are notoriously hard to get right with CMYK alone.

Then there are metallic inks, semi-transparent inks, glosses, etc., and the different ways you can layer everything from the paper upwards, and boy oh boy, paper doesn't always have to be pure white either, and underlying paper types change the way colors appear too.

552 @527: "But hey, let's just shut down the country, because."

Long story short:

No one can stop or prevent this coronavirus bug. It spreads too quickly, and they won't get a vaccine into mass production soon enough to save people.

They're just trying to slow things down.

Public health types call it "flattening the curve."

Meaning, you make the peak number of cases smaller, especially those that require hospitalization, and you try to spread out all of the severe cases over a longer period of time, so you don't overwhelm the capacity of the health care system.

That's why they're freaking out so much at the beginning.

They don't think everyone is going to die.

They just wanna manage how quickly (slowly) those that will inevitably die, do die in a more manageable fashion, so people who can be saved don't fall through the cracks.

559 Hexadecimal is practically a universal code for which data is transmitted digested and Multiplex throughout control systems. It's to consolidate binary code. It can still be interpreted by the machine running it but it is not nearly as dense as binary like some of these Millennial bintz are. For such a large swath of people who f****** Love Science as they love to say sure know how to express in every way form possible otherwise
