That is literally the most dangerous bike lane in existence
holy shit, i thought that was some kind of graphical overlay. that’s a bike lane!? that has to be intentional, like some kind of malicious compliance from someone who hates cyclists
I saw the picture first and finished the headline in my mind:
A self-driving freight truck just drove across several cyclists
The cyclists were turned into butter
And then they were delivered
I can’t believe it’s not bikes
Delivered to
or
Delivered from
?
No, like a baby.
JFC, whose bright idea was that?
The buddy of the governor who got the contract lul. At least that’s what happened in my friends small town when they built a roundabout that took 4 years to finish for a small 4 lane intersection that had stops before on a road that got maaaaaybe 12 cars a day
You are so full of it. It’s not a fucking bike lane it just goes to the turn and disappear. This is not what bike lanes do. How much of your life is just riffing off others guesses and piling on anecdotes like this?
That 12 cars a day is probably the biggest reason it took so long. When you don’t want to spend money you prioritize more important projects.
The next self driving truck will be delivering ice to alaska.
Hear me out: trains
I’m sure glad we developed technology just to avoid paying one person to drive that truck. This is progress and will not have knock on consequences. We should celebrate this.
This, but unironically. Automation is a good thing, and every driver who loses their job over this drives the necessity of finding post-scarcity solutions that much closer to the breaking point.
Oh yes, I’m sure our current socioeconomic systems will get right on finding post automation solutions. That’ll happen real soon now. I mean, it’ll have to happen, right? We won’t just let all the jobs dissolve away so that shareholders get richer, right? That would be crazy to do that. I can’t imagine a society that would possibly do that, could you?
This but realistically it has ruined equality at the rate time as it improved life quality
Yes because losing your job to robots is fun, rich will be richer and poor will be more miserable
Caption better than meme!
King Harlaus: heavy breathing
I don’t get it.
their only purpose is to pass butter

That was hilarious, sad and adorable at the same time. Thank you for the context, I’ve never seen the show before.
The fanbase can be… quite something to behold, but I’ve found the show hilarious and clever almost every episode.
