Lol at the island one

Lots of things that aren’t houses are cheaper than a house deposit.

Have we had this one yet?

fwiw I'm 'greener' than 55% of the population (ie my green is blue to most of the population)

I'm bluer than 66% of population.

Turquoise is green for me.

Bluer than 98% of the population... Should I be worried?

I'm guessing my devices screen colour config played a part though.

I just did it again and now turquoise is blue and I'm greener than 57%.

did it a few times, always around this:
Your boundary is at hue 180, bluer than 85% of the population. For you, turquoise is green.

Likewise

85% here. Screen accuracy must have something to do with it.

Your boundary is at hue 171, greener than 76% of the population. For you, turquoise is blue.

The Guardian article mentions this and suggests the best way round this is for multiple individuals to do the test on the same device for a direct comparison.

More importantly, where does leave the concept of a sweet 'baby blue' fixeh?

Also the light around you. I got different results on the same screen with the cosy light, and then with the big light. And then outside in twilight, but that was on a different screen.

Turquoise is a colour. It's like if they went from red to yellow and didn't let you say orange.

But it is blue though innit?
I was also in the 76% bracket. Blue. Clearly.

Anyway it has prompted me to get this down off my bookshelf again.

The third one, to a tune by Talking Heads came to mind, but can’t recall what the song is but I now have the earworm almost and it’s bedtime :(
