Hopefully by 2040 both you and Usenet (of which alt groups are NOT a formal
part) will be long gone.

Listen to the advice of "Talker".

The rest do not provide to you!

well, the tutorial he quotes tries to fake the effects of a polarizing
filter, but, as all the other posters in this thread have written, no
image processing can really achieve all the results a polarizing filter
will.

I have the impression that you have no idea of what you're talking about

No one wants to see your bottom...

Of what then, are alt groups a part? Usenet isn't just the Big-8, you know.

That's why some post at the top! See ... even you 'know' that!
Now ... bottom's up ...

"alt" => Alternate!
Usenet is a formal structure, but any idiot can create an 'alt' group with a
bit of cooperation from someone having a server.

And that's all the OP asked for.
He asked for a way to imitate the effect of a polariser. Not for a way to
replace it with software.
That's what the tutorial offered does. It imitates some of the effects
created by a polarising filter.
Of course, some of the effects can't be recreated by software, nomatter how
clever the technique may be, but as a vague approximation, the technique
works quite well.

Oxymoron?

You don't buy the Anarchists, Lunatics and Terrorists explanation?

Heh, Usenet is about as informal as it gets in most places. And, if you have
the cooperation of someone with a newsserver there's no reason I know of
that you couldn't "create" a group in any hierarchy you wish. Getting it
propagated might be another thing, though.
