Probably just data mining
"Man develops app to put pre-made filter on top of women photo to match developer's opinions based on too much of JoeRogan and other such podcasts"
I never thought that journalism in 2026 could match back side of my comic book mag from 2006...
I wonder what all that blank space used to say.
I don't even bother with dating profiles where every single photo has a filter on it. It's anyone's guess what the person actually looks like.
Apparently it’s even easier than ever as you can just give a selfie to AI models and it can do all the “photoshopping” for you without actually learning those skills.
i think my favorite is profiles where every photos is them on vacation, happy and smiling stuff.
then you find out they hate their life/job and the only time they are ever happy is on vacation...
vaguely related but i think we should normalize men wearing makeup
As you wish...
We're not gonna take it!
JD Vance?
what makeup specifically?
certain kinds of makeup are more normalized than others.
and plenty of men already are wearing it, you just don't notice because it's not obvious. just like with women who wear it but people think they are 'natural'.
I expect sexism in the comments and I'm still disappointed every time. Yikes. Do better Lemmy.
Right? Holy shit. I am surprised and a bit perturbed by how many people are on board with sexism in this thread
A lot of parts of Lemmy have a sexism problem
AFAIK on Reddit you get BANNED right away. If you are lucky for few days, otherwise eternally.
I think makeup is cool, the standard of having to wear makeup is bullshit. When my girlfriend doesn't wear makeup people ask if she's sick. It seems like a lot of work.
e: this app is weird af though
is she pale and uses it to add color? makes a lot of sense.
i am a very pale dude and people accuse me of being sick my entire life ever since i was a kid. i've never really been sick though.
it never occurs to people that being pale is natural or acceptable. it's always something to mock, and make fun of and seeing as negative.
i just think it's fucking weird to be so judgemental and hostile about other people's skin color(s). but i don't ever really comment or think about on other people's pigments or lack thereof.
This is one of the biggest reasons I never got into makeup. I remember being a teen and hearing people ask women, "Are you okay?" when they didn't do their full makeup routine. I thought, "Man, it's got to hurt to feel like having a natural face means something's wrong with you. I'd rather go into the world how I am and have that be accepted as normal."
I had a coworker apologizing for her appearance "What's the big deal? You're just not wearing makeup today.", her and another older coworker were surprised and the older one stopped wearing makeup to work the next day with a smile on her face.
I could honestly see it if it's like, someone who has known you for 20 years and you make a point of always doing your face to the nines. like maybe it's genuine concern, changes like that can signal having low energy associated with depression or etc etc etc but then I'm an overthinker and I worry too much.
But it's like work acquaintances will do it to her when she doesnt do full foundation and this and that and the other thing, which is just so goddamn rude.
people don't like change.
they do the same thing if you change your style, your hair, etc.
