Man... Screw CSS... I already know how to make everything be how and where I want it with HTML alone and I still just don't want a way to make it simpler or better...
Other commenter was right... I did it with old school js... So damn surprised tho how bad shit still is with CSS even these days tho ... Wife had to get me to click Ctrl minus to size her weird medical stuff viewable earlier because their damn site is so useless... Lol
Now, are we going take the initiative and place the flowerbed where it should be rather than where we were told to put it ?"
Designer probably got a dimension wrong on the drawing, and the pavers went "Alright, we'll do it exactly as you say. Teach you to proofread next time..."
As a builder, I can't even begin to tell you how often I'll come across something like that and ask the question only to get some ego driven response that you can tell they didn't even review the situation.
'as per the drawings boys' can be a gratifying direction to give when you have the appropriate responses to CYA.
If it were in the center, everyone would need to walk around it. This is more efficient for the foot traffic.
@darcy, that made me literally lol (irl).
Here you can clearly see the difference it makes when I use a controller instead of mouse and keyboard.
I feel like there may be a reason to this. It looks like the flowers got recently moved. Maybe it was in the way of the main footpath that sees the most traffic? I can see it getting moved if people repeatedly tripped over it at night or when drunk.
I feel that this may be in a snowy region and a snow plow accidentally moved it in the winter.
Pretty sure that's not a movable planter. It's literally a circle of bricks around a hole in the paving so you can plant flowers in the soil underneath. It's not something you can push around. They built it like this, on purpose.
Also looks like there could be a drainage issue.
There is 100% a reason for this. Because it takes days, if not weeks, to build out a feature like this. And even the most autopilot zero shits given county worker will realize something is "off". And, more importantly, realize that someone is likely to see it before they finish and insist they do it again.
I don't buy the "in the way of the footpath" since that seems to be where a lot of paths converge.
Gods I hope we're not to the point of coddling people that we're now structuring our architecture to protect the drunks.
If you protect the drunks you also protect the visually impaired, those with lacking motor skills, the chronically absent-minded, and Smombies. I do hope we protect the drunks.
So say we're protecting those people then. Makes the hand holding a little more palatable.
Hmm I don't see anything using the browser's interface. There has been a few posts like this. Something in particular I could be missing?
