What will he think of next? Maybe spaceships but for shorter distances--- staying in Earth's atmosphere---- So we can avoid traffic and lessen congestion by going over roads. GENIUS

you know how normal rich people try to spend their lucre on things like eradicating malaria or scholarships for children, or even just seeing who can own the largest luxury yacht? musk has a fetish for dying while sealed in a tunnel, tube, or other confined space and he wants to share this compulsive behavior with his fans turn off the TV posted:what happens when the elevator breaks down? he will found a new company devoted to making maintenance-free elevators that ends up crushing an orphanage or some bullshit

If this ever comes to fruition in any shape or form, it will quickly be sold via access passes. $10k to $50k membership fee a year for the rich to use. Uncongested traffic in LA would be awesome and there are plenty of people to pay for access. Then cities will sue, unfair use of public lands, and then buses will be added. Within 5 years it will be like any other subway. But shittier and more dangerous as Musk is trying to build a cheap rear end tunnel in a high-frequency earthquake zone.

Lol there’s already an elon thread but I welcome more muskchat The tunnels are never getting built, this is pure fantasy / grift The dodger stadium thing is going to be a gondola and it will be cool. The city has already released a letter of intent for it. Not a lovely tunnel that sucks. Sorry elon

A MIRACLE posted:Lol there’s already an elon thread but I welcome more muskchat the tunnels are going to happen because musk is putting up his own money on the project. that's how much he believes in the rosy scent of his own farts, he is sinking millions of dollars into a bugfuck idea because he's not willing to pay any graduate level traffic engineer to detail the many reasons this plan is lovely and stupid like aside from the tunnels being actual health hazards, and aside from the fact that there's no efficient way to access the tunnel, really anyone involved with traffic planning can tell you about induced demand and triple convergence and etc. etc. the many mathematically demonstrable reasons why adding road capacity does not reduce congestion in any way

I've seen wheelchair bound old men grab women and refuse to leg go until the cops are called and throw piles of spit. I've smelled things you people would not believe, and had dozens of people cough in my face while watching the gang bangers scratch poo poo into the windows. And that's not even close to the poo poo that goes down in Japanese subways. I can't believe Elon Musk is a goon who loves cartoons. I like the Bladerunner quote in there, Mr. Musk, I hope you do the Roy Batty voice when you outline just how your tunnels will keep people safe from the mad, disgusting poors.

imagine how extremely cool it would be for a battery to catch on fire since all of the traffic in the tunnel is supposed to be point A directly to point B so when that car fails to exit every other vehicle in the system is going to now be trapped for the entire length of the tunnel by the retard loving elevators as it fills with flames and smoke as a chain reaction of batteries dooms everyone inside to horrific deaths but, better that than have to ride a loving BUS

whoa,,, uh it kind of seems like somebody went all in on their idea for a digging-based business plan, without really knowing too much about digging? so, in the u.s. it's actually really, really hard to do a lot of digging, in part because of NAGPRA- the "Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act" basically there's Native Americans buried everywhere, and if you find some, even on accident, you have to find out which tribe they belong to and negotiate their repatriation, which can take months or even years and even if you want to dig for more than like a couple feet in your own backyard, there's also so much infrastructure down there, pipes and pipelines and conduits and whatever, that we have a dedicated phone number that you're supposed to call first. you know how 911 is emergencies and 411 is information? 811 is the number we have for digging holes. no joke also, you know how in Paris, there's that thing where they have a really low skyline and keep most of their old buildings, not building for density even as the population booms? my understanding is that's partly because there's so much empty space under the city that it can't hold more weight or it might collapse idk I'm not an engineer but if they tried to build  and ended up building  I don't think I want them digging anymore. I don't think they know what they're doing how does that concrete look like it's the floor of a century-old aqueduct? they JUST put it in.

So it would be impossible to put out, would be filling the tunnel with smoke and toxic fumes, would be burning at around 600 degrees, and could possibly continue burning for hours or even days on top of carrying the risk of spontaneously reigniting. really neat and I'm excited to hook it up to my garage ASAP!

Cubone posted:it kind of seems like somebody went all in on their idea for a digging-based business plan, without really knowing too much about digging? exactly, musk is on record multiple times stating "let's just put all the cars underground, it will solve congestion" where like literally any student in any traffic engineering or urban planning program in any university could explain why that is stupid. musk didn't consult any experts at all because otherwise he wouldn't have done any of this nonsense. he's either completely full of his own ego or this is a distraction from tesla or something, who knows like, at any point in the seventy years we could have buried all the freeways. fringe libertarians often propose this. there's a real good reason nobody ever does it Cubone posted:also, you know how in Paris, there's that thing where they have a really low skyline and keep most of their old buildings, not building for density even as the population booms? my understanding is that's partly because there's so much empty space under the city that it can't hold more weight or it might collapse iirc it's mostly for heritage preservation and to protect the tourist industry. london is kind of the same. all the skyscrapers in paris are shoved off into their own district outside of the tourist core because nobody comes to paris to see giant glass office buildings, they want to see the iconic hausmann design

The part of the underground car train tunnel that I'm having the hardest time dealing with is that it's making me think that Elon Musk is even more of a retard than I did after he made the child sized dildo submarine.

When I was around ten I "invented" a new propulsion system based on the resistance 2 ? (lol) positive sides of magnets have to touch each other. For a day or two I thought I had changed the world and finally told my dear brilliant grandmother about my breakthrough. She humoured me a little, but then asked me questions about how it would WORK and I soon realized I had nothing. I think Elon is like I was at 10. It's great to have ideas and want to make things better, but it's even better to have a brilliant grandmother.

Blazing Ownager posted:There is a huge difference (and a difference that will impact traffic big time) between driving somewhere and emerging with your car already and parking to ride a packed loving subway and emerging sans car on the other side. From a time and convenience issue: In reality getting on a train requires finding a place to park (10-15 mins), waiting for the train (5-15 mins), waiting for the train to make all it's stops while en route to your destination, then walking to a connecting form of mass transit and waiting for a bus to where you are actually going (another 10-20 mins). so trickle down theory, but for traffic. that’s what you’re going with, huh? despite decades of research showing traffic always expands to exceed capacity in urban settings. ok
