Superliminal advertising is way more effective.

"Hey you! Join the Navy!!"

[–] dustyData@lemmy.world 80 points 1 year ago (5 children)

This is the opposite of subliminal. It's almost super-liminal. This people must think that a punch in the face is subtle disagreement.

Ngl I can't read it until I squint

[–] LastYearsPumpkin@feddit.ch 6 points 1 year ago

Depends on what device I'm looking at it on. The thumbnail preview makes the words super obvious, but the full size version on a computer screen is almost unreadable, even if I squint.

Other way around, people think subtle disagreement is a punch in the face

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

No, i think it ws right the first time. They think something that is super-liminal is subliminal. That's the big obvious thing, vs. the small subtle thing. So, in conparison, they would think a punch in the face is a subtle disagreement. So big obvious thing vs. small subtle thing.

On Twitter—which is now called “X” for some reason—

Best part of the article right there.

Here's what's really going on

Yeah nothing out of the ordinary

Thanks I guess

[–] stebo02@sopuli.xyz 10 points 1 year ago

it's clearly a clickbait title

[–] DagonPie@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago

It's vice, what do you expect.

"On Twitter—which is now called “X” for some reason—algorithmically-boosted blue-check users..."

Words so mesmerising I turned off my adblock

I read the ‘Gay Sex’ as ‘Day Sex’ 🤔

If God wanted us to have sex at day, why did he create the night!

[–] HipPriest@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Funnily enough gay sex was fine in ancient Rome (as long as you were the dominant one) but having sex in the light (whether natural or candle light) was seen as a massive taboo.

(Amongst the upper and middle classes anyway, I doubt the majority of people cared)

Day sex fan VS Night sex enjoyer

I read it as OAY SEX. I kept asking myself... the hell is an oay?

[–] erwan@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

OAV SEX for me

Didn't Vice go out of business like months ago?

[–] drekly@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

It's fun, I've been making my own!

[–] BustinJiber@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

What's going on is them ruining cats for me. Every time I see one of these pictures I want to puke at how unrealistic the animals look. I found myself to truly despise AI generated content with burning passion.

[–] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

I kind of like the little biped guy second from left though, cute little bundle of fur on sticks

[–] Touching_Grass@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Every week, the social media hype-train seems to find new ways to sensationalize generative AI tools. Most recently, a new technique that allows users to produce optical illusions went viral, with some describing the results as AI-generated images with “subliminal” messages.

These writers got the same energy as an envious teenage girl

[–] dangblingus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What does that even mean? It's literally a first paragraph summary of the body of the article? In what way does it sound "envious" and from the mind of a teenage girl?

[–] PsychedSy@sh.itjust.works -3 points 1 year ago

They even found words to bitch about twitter being renamed.
