I've asked this before, but what browser are people using that doesn't resize pictures? And is it updated past some 2005 version?
Chrome on iOS on my old ass work phone doesn’t auto size, maybe I’ll go to IT and tell the nerds I need a newer phone so I can scroll calgarypuck more efficiently.

I had to read through the rest of the thread but this post absolutely did not get enough credit.
1. Clearly busted out the ruler to make sure the lines were tidy.
2. Multiple colours to direct the reader's eye to the important parts.
3. Masterful use of labels so even the savages or 'Dopes' amongst us could still understand. Is there a median? Where is the median? Oh, there it is, thanks Sliver!
4. Arrows. Arrows are so underutilized today, but he uses them very effectively to indicate direction and to add clarity to the labels. Fabulous.
5. He even adds the dip#### ####wad, who leaves excessive space betwixt himself and the car in front of them. An ode to a CP classic GG!
6. Finally, the sheer effort. This was not jotted off when he was outside for a fake smoke break. This took time. This took thought. This took Sliver.
Bravo.
And I left the diagram in the original size as an homage. You don't minimize an artiste.
What we actually learned is that Sliver uses these in his office.
iPhone 15 Pro on iOS 18.5. Even with content blockers and extensions disabled, in regular thread view the image is still full-size. Dunno why Edge iOS doesn’t exhibit the same behaviour. Meh.
I was at an intersection just like this a few weeks back, and was one of those vehicles at the light waiting to go north. The lights further past this intersection were timed, in that the those left turners would clear when my light was green, but never fully cleared the intersection so I couldn't go. My light goes red, and the left turners proceed to clog up the intersection again. I went through 6 light cycles before giving up on going straight and just turning left to find a different route.
So if the left turners in your diagram can enter the intersection without the ability to clear, does that mean you are giving the okay for those proceeding straight north in the intersction to do the same, blocking the left turners?
The straight-through people are on the main road, so it's moving more than the side road entering. Because of that, you always have a new crop of people coming to that light and stopping before the line on the red.
It's the people entering from the side road that have to push to get in. They know they've been waiting and there is only one way to enter the main road. The main road is a whole new crop of people every light cycle, so they don't know the struggle of the left turn so they're not positioning to fk those people over. They're getting through on the next green no matter what.
Add spices/flavor (salt, pepper, paprika etc.) to meat.
Grill patty with choice of cheese until appropriate doneness
Grill/warm appropriate bun and other add on (ie: onions, mushrooms etc.)
Add whatever sauces and add ons you deem appropriate.
That’s meat loaf not a burger.
The key to any burger is freshly ground fatty meat and loosely assembled together so that it is barely holding together, never squished into a patty. You want the individual strands to be able to crisp up.

Interesting. I even double checked the settings under Safari and I can’t seem to find any toggle for auto image re-size.

Also. We also learned that. We learned lots of stuff. (And I really appreciate you playing along.)
Not least of what we learned is the lengths I will go to whip the ever living #### out of a horse that has been dead since christ was a carpenter of a joke.
