My head canon is this guy had a kid with a woman of opposite patterned people from this episode, and somehow our boy here ended up with every single recessive gene possible.

I wonder if plaid is possible...

^^I mean, this is really a great comment :)

I would love to know if this fools facial recognition systems.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 38 points 2 months ago

I don't think so ..... it would specifically only identify one person dumb enough to have this tattoo on their face.

Makes recognition for humans way easier

He’s the guy they used to train the facial recognition system.

Not like that face is going to blend into the crowd.

No, the execution was not great.

Some of the sides of the squares are lined, while some aren't, and those that are lined are pretty shaky. Color saturation seems decent, but it's hard to tell with the image quality being low.

In the tattoo artists defense, this is a brutally difficult part of the body to ink, and as a result, they likely haven't had a lot of experience doing facial tattooing.

[–] entwine413@lemm.ee 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Right, but it still doesn't make it great execution.

[–] neukenindekeuken@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

That's fair

Hmm, does that mean there's artists that specialise in doing the face, then? If so, I wonder what kind of battle stories come out of their workplace.

As a guy that paints Warhammer 40K Orks, I respect it.

Same. Good checkers are hard.

He looks like if one of the members of mudvayne got really into meth.

[–] VitoRobles@lemmy.today 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Awful taste? Yeah.

Great execution? I mean the lines are kinda straight so yeah I'll accept that

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 months ago

You know, I wasn't actually sure, but this thread has convinced me it's impressive.

Wasn't this a Star Trek episode?

derp, i made that joke, but before seeing your comment, should have replied to you!

You can't just post a picture of a headless man like that. Scared the bejesus out of me.

[–] YoiksAndAway@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago

WTF? I saved this file as a jpg and now he's gone!

This guy's got a real checkered past

Always wondered how the heck they tattoo the eyelid. I find simple/light tattooing on meaty areas somewhat peaceful and relaxing, but do that to my eye and I'll be twitching like a flea on crack

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What a stupid thing to do.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Why?

While easier for humans to recognize, I wonder if this might help avoid many automated facial recognition systems.
