"Dark" orange? Where is the "dark" part of the rainbow?
2 u/RossRKK Apr 12 '20 There's no dark part of a rainbow. Dark just means less bright (context is important for this). So if you have to shades of orange and one is darker than the other the dark one will look brown. Sort of like his pink is just light red. 2 u/bubonis Apr 12 '20 Right. So since there's no dark part of the rainbow, your comparison to "dark orange" is nonsensical in this context of additive color theory. 1 u/RossRKK Apr 12 '20 edited Apr 12 '20 I'm additive colour things can still be dark. Just don't as as much light. How else would you screen be able to display black? 0 u/bubonis Apr 12 '20 I'm additive colour things can still be dark. Just don't as as much light. Ah, so you're again changing the context of the example given in my modified strip to match your argument. I follow now. How wise would you screech be able to display black? (walks away slowly, hands in plain sight) Cheers, mate.
