Could we please include credit for webcomics?
XKCD makes linking with attribution super easy: Permanent link to this comic: https://xkcd.com/2684/ Image URL (for hotlinking/embedding): https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/road_space_comparison.png
Sorry about that, I found it somewhere else without credit and completely forgot the art style was from XKCD.
I’ll add it to the post.
fun fact: it’s illegal to not credit them! see the creative commons license at the bottom.
This community is awesome.
