Alt text is good for everyone

@konstruct very good picture for arguing against any curb. Why is it there? Why don't we mix all types of traffic in areas like these and limit speed to 5km/h?

@Jhelberg Curbs are there because car drivers would park on any pedestrian walkway if there wasn't a high obstacle @konstruct

@energisch_ @konstruct that's a symptom. The reason is we let them misbehave.

Sadly, to be effective, this obstacle needs to be c200mm.

@konstruct
Yes to both:
When we design für disabilities we make things better for everyone. And alt text is good for everyone.
But!
I'd like to curb the street instead, so that pedestrians could cross on their level. It would make foot ways smoother and slow down the traffic on the street.

@gbsteve
If cities were made for people not for cars we'd curb the street upwards pedestrians, weelchair users and all kind of people could cross the street on their level.
@konstruct

@OneInterestingFact True. They park anyway they manage, no respect for cycling or pedestrian paths @Jhelberg @konstruct

@Jhelberg So true! If they were hauled away, had to pick up their cars from a station with high fines, they would learn! But sadly, in Germany this is not wanted. Politics and too often society has car-brains. All others don't count. Not ppl in wheelchairs, no children in buggies, no bicyclists, no elderlies on foot... only car drivers are heard and they complain loudly. @konstruct

@epilonious drunk drivers are getting on the curb, cut or not, the same is with AI. The real way to protect your art is to poison AI with nightshade

@energisch_ @OneInterestingFact @Jhelberg fuck cars, replace them with public transport, buses, trains, and bike lanes
