Also William Gibson wrote about foiling facial recognition with makeup over thirty years ago.
Some years ago, Pussy Riot put out information on how to use Makeup to confound face detection algorithms.
On an unrelated note: This is probably going to be blocked in ML because I used the word "pussy". I wonder why that instance has a problem with me mentioning that word. Could it be perhaps the name of a feminist anarchist group activity resisting domestic Russian oppression? No, I'm sure that's a coincidence.
Edit: Ty to everyone who helped correct my misunderstanding. The feedback has been informative, but I'll leave my comment as-is so people reading have context incase they also have misconceptions.
No, it's because there's no sex in the USSR.
I'm on ML and can read your comment without a problem. Let's see if I can type it.
Pussy Riot
EDIT: No problem there.
AFAIK .ml doesn’t automatically block comments from other instances containing slurs, they only automatically block slurs from being posted by their own users.
That's so removed
Stop trying to make removed happen
Turns out animals' camouflage including background matching, disruptive coloration, shadow elimination, counter shading, counter illumination and others are there to prevent optical recognition.
Who would have thunk.
You'll also need a silly walk to defeat gait recognition
Well that's why they set up a ministry to manage the silly walks, to make sure they complied with gait recognition before they were used.
Bonus: Also helps avoid detection by sandworms.
I'm sure this could be negated with flowy clothing that contains adversarial patterns. At least for a while.
I met a juggalo once and he was a racist Trump supporter who steal scrap metal from construction sites for meth money.
That sucks. I worked with a few when I was younger and knew a couple others in high school too, and my experience was the opposite. They weren't exactly Rhodes scholars lol, but they were open-minded, kind, and dependable colleagues. Juggalos have a reputation for being trashy, and it's something they proudly embrace, but I've found them to be generally harmless. Unfortuantely, I think just about every fan base these days has to deal with its share of racist Trump supporters who steal scrap metal from construction sites for meth money...
My buddy and I were just talking about this. Juggalos get a lot of shit, but my experience is that they are one of the most accepting groups around. It doesn't matter if you're a PhD or are stealing copper out of abandoned houses, if you show up with some clown makeup and fire poi, juggalos are down to clown.
all I know about juggalos is that magnet meme and this episode of tv
Chiming in with another juggalo friend who was an incredibly good hearted person. Ended up going to jail for "assaulting an officer" by trying to pull a cop off of someone during the George Floyd protests. I lost touch after that.
I mean it's close. The Cyberpunk ttrpg was released in '88 and ICP's first album dropped in '89.
As an enjoyer of most of icp, this makes me laugh.
Bring back the Juggalos! I've been saying it for years. We need them now more than ever.
It's nice being able to see people talk about icp like this thread without being nasty about it tbh
I'm not a fan of the music, but I'd rather be surrounded by authentically deranged weirdos than an endless sea of yuppies.
Love the worst band in the world, fam.
If nothing else, they're an inspiration for just doing your own thing artistically. Fuck the critics, just make some shit you're passionate about, make it available to find its audience, and connect/bring in other folks who want to do the same.
IMO, they created/'popularized' an entire genre of music, and some of it's better than what they put out (for example, I like Twiztid more - but they wouldn't be what they are if it wasn't for ICP and Psychopathic Records)
Edit: For those who need a pick me up going into work tomorrow, a little MMFCL for ya.
They never left...
Incoming novel featuring Dazzle camo face paint

I don't think so.
That's not doing facial recognition though, that's a reverse image lookup. It's a lot easier to find an exact match for a photo.
Exploitable
Replace top clown with normal person to show it finding that Juggalo
(Apparently that’s Violent J, next to his buddy… Shaggy 2 Dope)
Abracadabra boom shacka dae
I'm Violent J, and I'm back like a vertebrae
Huh, the tweet the article referenced is five years old, I wonder if there’s been any advancement in facial recognition in that regard
