Did I just get spikepilled?
37Automatically deployed road spikes are the solution to all traffic infractions. Speeding? Road spikes. Ran a red light? Road spikes. Didn't signal? Road spikes.
27Throwing out trash? Believe it or not, road spikes!

19How do you view the alttext on mobile?
19XKCD has a mobile website, just change the URL to m.xkcd.com and it shows the alt text at the bottom
24Looks like I'm one of today's lucky 10,000

On Firefox, long press the image. If the alt text is long then you also have to press the text to expand it.
13Most mobile browsers show alt text when you long press the image, sometimes you have to tap on the alt text if it's longer than a few words (same as mentioned by the Firefox comment)
Also, in sync for lemmy the xkcd comics load as an image but the overflow menu contains extra details including alt text.

He wants the harpoon from snow crash.
I want the stickers.
And the shockwave projector.
9Can I mount Reason on my bike

No, spikes aren't permanent enough, drivers can just move them tot he side or cover them to pass over them. We should plant Czech Hedgehogs and Dragon's teeth on out roads!
3Ayy I had a flat tire yesterday and I approve
3Example: translated bike road, cars are guests!
3I think people are just confused on how that would actually work, it's like boomers staring at a roundabout thinking it's making traffic worse. People are so used to congested streets with cars that looking at the example probably gives them anxiety thinking about navigating it.
3saw a comment a couple days ago – “You are not stuck in traffic. You ARE traffic.”

Already got a Onewheel, I just need a 'pon now... 😁
1Sure, just throw tires spikes on the road. Let's have people buy more tires, and trash the (what used to be good) tires into a landfill. Yeah that'll show them drivers
-11Something tells me that people don't want to drive somewhere that has road spikes on the ground.
6Now I'm imagining the city hiring armored trucks with spike-plows and police escort, clearing spikes from the most important lanes after car-haters have scattered huge quantities everywhere.
