    Project mention: Sharp Bilinear Filters: Big Clean Pixels for Pixel Art | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-10-16

    > that to the display resolution using bilinear

    On that topic, Pillow so-called binilnear isn't actually bilinear interpolation [1][2], same with Magick IIRC (but Magick at least gives you -define filter:blur= to counteract this)

    > By default, you are opted in. Perfectly clear.

    That's called opt-out. You're doing exactly what I described: gaslighting people into believing that opt-in and opt-out are synonyms, which makes the entire concept meaningless. The audacity of you calling me "political" while resorting to such manipulation is astounding.

    These are examples of what "opt-in by default" actually means. It means having the user manually consent to something every time, the polar opposite your definition.

    - https://github.com/rom1504/img2dataset/issues/293

    It's also just pure laziness to label me as "hysterical" when PR departments of companies like Google have, like you, misused the terms opt-out and opt-in in deceptive ways.

    The README explicitly says it's not good for crops, and from the algorithm description it can't be. Or is there another thing called dhash with a different algorithm? https://github.com/benhoyt/dhash. https://github.com/Rayraegah/dhash is similar but horizontal only.
