Adam SomethingThe problem with only hiring “idea guys,” techbros and consultants is that eventually you’ll need actual work done.

03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMAnd I've already banned the first person getting triggered by my mention of Brno's treatment of Roma. Keep it up! I like to keep my comment section's average IQ high.

03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMUS should never build HSR networks. It goes against the privacy and comfortability.

03/03/2025 - 3:02 AM"This idea from 1888 was first conceived by Elon Musk in 2012" Subscribed. I need to see nothing further.

03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMI always wondered how the capsules were supposed to "float on a cushion of air" in a vacuum.
@jcortese3300
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMI keep thinking that these projects are not just spun up to torpedo other projects, but also to just shuffle money around and into the coffers and tax havens of whichever windswept paragliding playboy billionaire jackass who's pushing them. Almost all the money in the world isn't enough for these crackheads. These projects are spun up to funnel public money — OUR MONEY — into their pockets. They are a con game from the start. They're stupid engineering but smart cons. I actually feel like you are going in the wrong direction a bit when you talk about them. It sounds like someone who accuses a con man running a shell game scam of claiming to break the laws of physics when he isn't even thinking about them. He's not failing to break the laws of physics. He's successfully bilking his mark — and he knows it.
Getting projects cancelled isn't the end game. GETTING MONEY is the end game, public money most of all.

@someidiotwithnoname
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMJust build a rail network and put solar panels as a canopy to produce energy to power it. Trains already run on electric motors, even the diesel ones have engines that serve as power plants producing electric energy for the electric motors, so making a system that could power it via solar power could reduce the need for diesel fuel in SOME parts of the world (depends on the number of sunny days etc. etc.) making them cheaper. Also diesel engines are heavy, so are batteries, so by making the train power it self by railway infrastructure would make it lighter and as the old formula goes if you want to double the weight you need to quadruple the power to maintain the same acceleration and top speed. With new technologies that allow automatization and remote control the rail network could be segmented so if an accident happens the system shuts down the power supply to the affected part and that could be done after the train passes a segment (to please hardcore wildlife protectionists and added safety). If there is a desire to be more innovative there is room in the shape and the track gauge, both of them have had some small improvements over the year but have been limited mostly by metallurgy meaning they were optimised for the stress levels of targeted materials but those calculations have shifted over the decades meaning we could have wider tracks and more effective rails allowing for more passengers with comfort and payload and both of those equate to … income and profit.
@cern1999sb
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMI have an idea. Instead of propelling pods with air pressure and a vacuum, he could add a motor to each one, perhaps electric. Then, since the vacuum chamber adds a lot of issues, just remove it, and place the pods on top of some metal lines, that they can automatically follow. And finally, to make it more efficient, he could attach lots of pods together, and just have an engine in one of them to push/pull the whole lot

@laughingvampire7555
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMthose hyperloop guys look as shady as the Simpsons monorail scammer
@laughingvampire7555
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMwe already have to magnetic levitation trains, the German monorail and the Japanese which is a birail but also has rails on the sides.
@DrKoneko
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMIf it was possible to build the hyperloop without any of the restrictions we would have to adhere to, it would be one of the coolest ways to get around ever. Unfortunately reality is reality.
@ObsceneSuperMatt
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMOnce everyone has a car, there won't be any further demand to induce, so adding more lanes won't be able to cause more congestion! You anti-laners just haven't thought it through to the end game!
@yavins4566
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMWe got a hyperloop TT design bureau in our city, they DID achieved to drain both public and private fundings. Strangely enough, said fundings seem to have disappeared in a vacuum, though.
@Ethan783
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AM8:42 as a resident of california: I will point out that the state government didn’t need anyone to sabotage the high-speed rail. It did it just fine by itself.
@playspianointhedark
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMExactly, just look at HS2 that's just a bog standard train
@zephyr8072
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMHistory is full of misunderstood, genius innovators who's ideas were too advanced, too incredible, too galaxy brained for their contemporaries to understand.
Elon Musk is not one of them.

THE TUBES ARE IN A VACCUM??? A Vaccum the length of hundreds or even thousands of kilometers?
I assumed its just a shell and there would be air inside.
@alexmoscatelli149
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMIt's pretty funny: "Arrivo" means "I'm coming" in italian.
Yup! We're still waiting for you!
@dohminkonoha3200
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMI have a good news,500 kmph maglev line will be completed until 2027 in Japan.
Super Conducive Maglev in real world is possible.

@Autogenification
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMIt just pisses me off that there's people out there that were paid $100k+ salaries to 'manage' or pedal all this bs… this world is so full of wasted time, effort, and resources
@gordonsneddon5914
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMHow about a Hyperloop through the centre of the earth…cuts down travel time between major cities on opposite sides of the planet to under an hour. Slight drawback in that passengers are destroyed in transit, but hey…you can’t make an omelette without cracking a few eggs.
@carvoloco4229
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMTo be fair, Arrivo didn't have the word "hype" in their name.

03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMOh hey, Heroes of Might and Magic 3 music during the Delft section. Neat.
@SupernovaeTech
03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMA maglev in a vaccum tube seems like a good idea on paper. Though first it would be somewhat useful to have large scale maglev trains running revenue services would make sense first.

03/03/2025 - 3:02 AMHey Adam, you're mentioning Delft Hyperloop, but more excitingly, the same university town also hosts Hardt Hyperloop, who recently collected 12+ million Euros for the development for their hyperloop, too! It's def a hub there.
