I remember seeing all the big brain French train engineers blowing the fuck out of the Hyperloop back in the 2010s, matching up with my understanding of the technology and I guess that was the moment the Musk Hypnotism broke for me. We really don't even need maglevs, we can still move fast on iron, maglevs are only proposed to improve density by speed.
It was frustrating to see friends and cohorts think the hyperloop would solve a solved problem. And do it in a cost-efficient way. It didn't do either.
Touching grass is not enough, I want Elon Musk to get cancer in his dick and die
Its maddening, we have the real solution. Its not flashy magitech that will instantaneously move you while leaving your fecal matter behind. It is just fucking hi speed rail. Turns out, putting a bunch of people that all need to take a largely similar path on a high capacity, fast moving vehicle is just really efficient.
This is like watching a children's show where they pause before they give the answer, but instead of giving a logical answer they regurgitate nonsense.
It was so obvious that this wouldn't work that even Elon Musk didn't want to have anything to do with it besides posting his brainfart on the Internet for the whole world to smell.
Awww no waaaay maintaining a hundred mile long vacuum tube in a state that gets earthquakes more often than Seattle gets rain wasn't viable? Who could have possibly anticipated that??
