thanks for making me feel old …
I remember.
So people looking at this photograph actually can perceive this to be white and gold? thats utterly wild. And hard to believe.
Back when this went viral, I only saw white and gold. Then one moment it just sorta morphed into blue and black. Now I can’t turn it back to white and gold for the love of me.
I’ve been trying for the past minute and cannot see anything other than white and gold 🤷♂️
I’m right there with you. I don’t doubt they are correct, but from the start, my brain has solidly decided to perceive it as white and gold. Cannot see blue anywhere no matter how much I try and force my brain to look for it.
You want wild? I see it white and gold in the PC, and blue and black(ish) on the phone.
It‘s the opposite with me, on my PC I saw it as black/blue, right now on Lemmy on my phone it can‘t be anything but gold/white. It must be the displays causing this ambiguity, no way human perception varies this much between a large set of people.
Right? Everyone has had eyes I guess.
It had a lot to do with low quality displays at the time and not necessarily people seeing it incorrectly.
everyone’s wrong, gold and baby blue
this! me too!
This… Thank god i m not crazy
Ok is this post some sort of trick? I opened up lemmy, saw it white and gold for the first time in my life, then I took a shower, now it is blue and black once more.

For some reason, in the thumbnail, it’s much easier to convince my brain that it’s a white and gold dress in shadow. When I expand the image, it’s pretty much impossible for me to see it as anything other than blue & black.
Oh yeah, the gold and white dress. I remember some people were acting crazy saying it is blue and white.
jokes aside the actual dress was blue and black
Black and blue. You blind.
10 YEARS AGO?!
Not this shit again!
it was obviously blue and yellow.
Yeah, it’s like blue and an ugly desaturated goldenrod. Because it’s sort of yellowish instead of black I think that’s why it tricks people’s brains.
It’s black and gold. Duh….
Literally the entire planet remembers this. Even people who were not born yet.
When that was going around I saw it as black and blue, and my partner at the time saw it as white and gold. When it was revealed that it was actually the former, I made a comment something like “I guess the difference is I see things as they actually are”, which got me a sharp look. :)
I only see white gold
Yes, I do remember ten years ago.
This concludes your long term memory exam. Please see the lady at the front desk to schedule your short term exam.
Where was the lady supposed to be again?
