      Not a single attractive person thinks this is impressive.

      Have they considered what happens if they were to hit a pothole or curb? Look at how low that thing is, it's practically a street sweeper except it's making the street shittier by virtue of existence.

          I wonder if those high and mighty bazingas realize they sound just like the shlubby suburban Bush voter type of republican they look down on saying “Nothing to hide, nothing to fear!”

          It’s jarring just how much people WANT to be cattle.

    My car unfortunately has low clearance. It regularly uncomfortably scrapes against most inclines. The bottom panels in the front are mutilated. I can't get out of my driveway without worrying that I'm going to bend some pipe unless I angle it perfectly.

    There's absolutely no way in hell these aren't as gimmicky as the Las Vegas hyperloop where it's just a circular tunnel that Teslas can't even self-navigate. Maybe this thing can be manually offloaded from a tow truck and programmed to slowly move around a completely flat track, but I could not take it across my 10 minute commute. There are multiple local rail crossings I think it'd get stuck on and the storm channels on our intersections would probably destroy the front of it.

      search for "driveway curb ramp" you can find lots of hard rubber products that are built to make your driveway less of a trough

    you know how it always happens: you're in a group of 18 to 20 people, you need to all go to another location, and everyone complains that there isn't a taxi that can accommodate your whole group without splitting into four vehicles

    Forget the train, I'm more impressed with the M.C. Escheresque architecture on those pillars in the background

          Apparently they showed what I assume is a prototype at their thing yesterday? I’m curious if there’s something we already have that can move at least 20 people efficiently tho

            no, surely if something like that existed it would be the backbone of the American transportation system

    Nobody.

    Elon fans are just sunk-cost coping at this point. They know this shit is cringe but they hope but passionately insisting it isn't they can warp reality around to come closer to their mind palace.
