Why don't they just start simple with a regular train and see if people take it?

BigBadSteve posted:Yes, if the hyperloop train develops a crack while in transit, the near-vacuum in the tube will cause everything to be sucked right out of the train and out of you, including your poo poo and guts. So I shouldn't flush the hyperloop train toilet while sitting on it?

so its cheaper than the other options and faster and it will generate it's own power. so much power it will be a net gain and the tickets will be affordable seems legit. where do i invest all my life savings?

How is the cost of building and maintaining and guarding a giant vacuum tube going to offset what you save in reduced air drag on the train. This idea is retarded.

ArbitraryC posted:While I don't disagree with any of the stuff the guy is saying I think it is possible that there'd be ways to get around those kinds of problems. For example thermal expansion is a real thing but expansion joints aren't the literally only solution, railroads for example often weld the steel tracks under tension so they're spec'ed to withstand the normal affects of expansion. His visual aids for demonstrating the force of something under a near vaccuum was cute but kind of pointless because they already have designed the tubes to withstand that pressure, similarly his comment about the amount of steel involved puts this in perspective certainly but presumably materials has already been factored in as part of the estimated costs. elon "elon musk" musk wants to build this thing in a fault zone

"Don't buy Smith & Wesson right after a big shooting or right before Hillary is gonna talk a ton about gun control, picking individual stocks is stupid!" I mean I'd agree if it was penny stock and microcap bullshit but it's not. It's seeing the Pentagon dump poo poo tons of money after F35 regardless of how crap the plane is and loling and buying Lockheed Martin.

Is this hyperloop thing a way to get a whole bunch of terrible tech ppl into a small enclosed space? Because that could be useful.
