Every american having a car is "normal", but then you imagine every indian/chinese/nigerian owning a fucking car and suddently most westerners turn into
ecologistsracist genocides.Sadly I don't think cars will ever go away. Even if we find a way to teleport people they will probably build personal teleporting spaces, because sharing something with poor people is not possible.
I don’t think cars will ever go away.
if we tear up all the roads and replace them with train tracks they will :sicko-hippie:
Japan is going to embargo the US, so they'll have to keep retro 2020s cars in good repair, and eventually they'll get painted pretty colors and become a tourist thing
I find the Japanese government my favorite in terms of contrast. It can be highly forward looking and implement large plans both domestically and internationally. It’s happy to make deals with anyone. At the same time massively corrupt with hilarious scandals and so backwards you get open sexism and a complete failure to understand anything software.
China is kinda doing it anyway, unfortunately. Cars delenda est everywhere pls
You how in TV and movies when ever you see giant underground complexes you think "How the could they have built that without anybody noticing?" I assume this is what it would really look like.
Holy fuck you could have all of those in one, small, multi-story parking garage. NA infrastructure is designed by children I swear.
That would cost way more and they're not about to spend spook money on sensible infrastructure
I'm guessing the land was a lot cheaper than building up, if you look at the satellite image you can see that even now there's a big buffer of nothing around it.
Furthest parking space in the lot on the top right is half a kilometer away from an entrance lol.
The agents who have to use that parking space are the same ones who get tasked with monitoring this site.
Agents? Those are for the janitorial and maintenance staff.
You park and then hire an Uber to take you to the front door.
The bus stop there is closer to an entrance than some of those parking spaces
Imagine building your car centric infrastructure shitty enough you not only manage to create a last mile problem for a parking lot, you actually manage to have it be worse than the one for public transport in the US
When you need to set up base camp and supply lines on the walk from your car to work.
The NSA hq is somehow worse. Very cool country.
(old picture, dunno if it's the same today)
On Google Earth, zoom in on the NSA (in Washington DC) and use the ruler on the carparks
Most of the time the Mormon Assault Vehicle is used for going to church, family trips, and grocery shopping with your 8 kids in tow.
You say "parking lot" I say "tactical open space that's easy to surveil"
parking means they drive to work. Mir Aimal Kansi figured out how to take advantage of that.
