[Eupalinos of Megara appears out of a time portal from ancient Ionia] Wow, you guys must be really good at digging tunnels by now, right?
Fuck everything about these tunnels.
- He proposed them to stop the city from implementing a subway system (fuck that shit).
- He first proposed them as being effectively a subway/hyperloop but then stopped when that cost too much money
- He then turned them into just underground private roadways accessible only to teslas.
Fuck that shit. The problem the city was trying to solve wasn’t “We need more highspeed roads” it’s “We need to be able move more people”. And musk torpedoed that with a pointless underground tunnel.
Subways would have been way cheaper to operate, served more locations, and would not have been this stupid exclusive system for tesla owners to show off an LED light display.
Have you seen the tunnels on Google maps? They are essentially a tunnel from one side of a parking lot, under the main street, to the entrance of the convention center across the road. A distance you could walk in 5 mins on street level, except your way is blocked by the 6 lane road without pedestrian crossing.
God I hate Elon Musk. What a fucking twat.
he really is the worst isn’t he
He is. Did you see the crap he posted on Twitter about the Baltimore bridge? Fucking dumbass.
Edit: found the screen cap:
Yeah, let’s reuse steel that has been weakened by unknown amounts and rebuild the bridge with the exact same flaws that caused it to be vulnerable to this type of collision.
Well to be fair, I think a lot of bridges would collapse if a 160.000t ship rams into its support structure.
