Where's Fallout? I fucken swear a quarter of the fan base is autistic, the other quarters are trans, fascists, and Slavs.

Why do autistic people love pie charts with red circles?

[–] GarboDog@lemmy.world 5 points 12 hours ago

(Mostly just us) Fursuit/furry stuffs, a billion plushies, bicycles, city architecture, trams, hiding when guests are over, Star Wars, one piece, the *perfect note book * (it’s one we made from a spare book cardboard, sewed in our own pages and it in many many stickers,) Books, old English, ASL/writing what to say when non verbal and safe foods

Star Wars!

When my son joined Cub Scouts, we went to our first big Cub event, some big potluck dinner, and I sat next to a kid with a Star Wars t-shirt. I love Star Wars, saw the first movie in the theater, and have been a fan my whole life, so I asked, "You a Star Wars fan?" And he started talking, and so did I.

We were having a nice conversation about Star Wars, when his mother came up and said "Are you talking about Star Wars again? What did we say about that? You can't just start talking to random strangers about Star Wars!"

I responded, "No, you don't understand, I asked him about it. I love Star Wars, too," and the kid looked really happy that I'd defended him.

His mom said, "You don't understand, he has Asbergers, he'll NEVER stop talking about it," which didn't sound so bad to me, I had lots to talk about with this kid, he was a big fan, and knew his stuff.

We parted, but I've wondered ever since if I have Asperger's about Star Wars, too. Probably Music, too.

*edit, since OP is adding things in I removed the white background. Also for OP, you can use https://www.remove.bg/upload for that, you don't get the full quality image but for this use case it's good enough

Thanks Quinny, but uploading to lemmy seems to automatically convert to jpeg.

I relate to others, but isn't the Rubix cube quite common in STEM people? Dunno what that has to do with autism

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 7 points 19 hours ago

Thinkpads are objectively good laptops tho. At least T series.

Especially for linux.

I'm not autistic but I like most of these things.

I'm autistic and the only thing i like is D&D. Trains are fine i guess, but I don't particularly care for them

[–] residentoflaniakea@discuss.tchncs.de 146 points 1 day ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (18 children)

I see a flag. I like flags. Especially the Japanese flags. I don't specifically care for Japan, but the flag is one of my favourites. I prefer flags with low entropy: so I wrote a script once that ranks the nations flags by entropy so I could quantify my preference. Thanks for letting me infodump a bit.

Edit: Due to people aski g for it: here is the top ten of my ranking:

Nations' flag entropy ranking (n=208). 
Image source: Wikimedia.

0	white_field			-1.439759075204976e-10
1	Indonesia			3.3274441922278752
2	Germany			3.391689777286108
3	South_Ossetia			3.8174437373506778
4	Monaco			3.9718936201427066
5	Poland			3.9719290780440133
6	Austria			4.372592975412404
7	Ukraine			4.405280849871184
8	Hungary			4.4465472496385985
9	Albania			4.6134257669087395
10	Mauritius			4.707109405551959
11	Luxembourg			4.721346585737304

Here's how I defined the entropy value for each flag:

def color_weighted_spectral_entropy(image):
    b_channel, g_channel, r_channel = cv2.split(image)
    
    # Calculate spectral entropy for each channel
    def channel_spectral_entropy(channel):
        f_transform = np.fft.fft2(channel)
        f_shifted = np.fft.fftshift(f_transform)
        magnitude_spectrum = np.abs(f_shifted)
        if np.sum(magnitude_spectrum) > 0:
            normalized = magnitude_spectrum / np.sum(magnitude_spectrum)
        else:
            normalized = magnitude_spectrum
        # Entropy calculation with color channel weighting
        epsilon = 1e-10
        entropy = -np.sum(normalized * np.log2(normalized + epsilon))
        
        return entropy
    
    weighted_entropy = (
        0.333 * channel_spectral_entropy(b_channel) +
        0.333 * channel_spectral_entropy(g_channel) +
        0.333 * channel_spectral_entropy(r_channel)
    )
    
    return float(weighted_entropy)

"White_field" is just an array that holds zeroes. I use this as a sanity check. Code is on github. I can send DM to whomever is interested. I guess it can also be searched for.

I like Kazakhstan's flag because I think its a nice combination of colors:

Its not very low entropy though, at least not compared to ones like Germany's or Ukraine's.

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 6 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Hmm. It seems weird that any tricolour flags would have different entropies, but I don't know how you would otherwise do a multichannel entropy.

I was imagining a kolmogorov-esque doodad

Yes! And weirder that bicolour banded flags are not consistently on top. I suspect some float errors. I just know that using the typical Shannon style does even worse. I might add some filter that calculates a differential or something.

[–] CelloMike@lemmy.world 67 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Well you gotta share that ranking now...

[–] ByteJunk@lemmy.world 47 points 1 day ago

And that script. I'm curious how you implemented it.

I owe it to the community. Since I don't have it anymore I am coding it up again. Allow me some time - it's weekend and I have family to look after.

[–] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 20 points 1 day ago

I love that you have multiple people replying to you asking for technical details on how you ranked the flag entropy. This is how you know that you are amongst your people here <3

Is this how I find out I'm autistic??

[–] webp@mander.xyz 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This is how you find out you're cool 😎

[–] myedition8@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Cool and autistic 😎

i see linux,minecraft,japan(i just like the games that originate from this country mostly),thinkpad,C,Rust
wait....
I think I’m autistic.

C and Rust mentioned in one meme? Be more careful to not cause a ruckus next time.

You forgot pride flags, blahaj, astronomy, and psychedelics. I would also say far-left politics, but there's plenty of right-wing autists out there too.

[–] renlok@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago

I feel personally attacked, how did you know my entire personality

[–] kittenzrulz123@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Me except im not that intrested in Japan (I love Vietnam tho), im not that intrested in Minecraft (ive just played it for too long), not that intrested in Pokémon (never got into it). You forgot a few things tho

  1. Programming socks
  2. Star Trek
  3. :3
  4. Mechanical keyboards
  5. Walkable cities (and a general obsession with people focused city planning)

Wow, the precision with which this struck me is concerning. I'm really, incredibly autistic at all times aren't I?

Why is Lain so popular these days? I still have my rips from 20 years ago on an old hard drive.

I just don't seem to understand.
