Note that in Space Jam it was the Monstars who were doing the space travel in an attempt to enslave Earth not an argument for the goodness of space travel tbh

anyway space travel and sports are both fun activities by definition, since they are hard to do and there's no reason to do them

if god had meant us to go into space he would've put us in space

unlike Sanpaku I believe it's important that all humanity perish on this rock made of garbage

I have measured out my life in coffee shop loyalty cards (silby), Tuesday, 11 December 2018 23:52 (five years ago) link

i'm not going as far as all humanity but i have a list

I Accept the Word of Santa (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 11 December 2018 23:52 (five years ago) link

it's important to determine how far out our tail of garbage might reach

Sufjan Grafton, Tuesday, 11 December 2018 23:53 (five years ago) link

our best garbage (Voyager) will most likely outlast every trace of human civilization on earth

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 11 December 2018 23:59 (five years ago) link

i thought that plastic bag in american beauty was supposed to be our "best garbage"

So saying he dismissed them; they with speed
Their course through thickest constellations held,
Spreading their bane; the blasted stars looked wan,
And planets, planet-struck, real eclipse
Then suffered. The other way Satan went down
The causey to Hell-gate...

hahaha look at this thing

Elon Musk's tunneling company unveiled its 1.14-mile tunnel in Los Angeles County tonight, and I rode through it in a Tesla SUV. It was a bumpy ride! More here, check back for updates: https://t.co/JBEy6e8NcZ pic.twitter.com/8sSUGGwDM5

Wait they dug a tunnel just, like, because?

I have measured out my life in coffee shop loyalty cards (silby), Wednesday, 19 December 2018 04:42 (five years ago) link

Part of the company’s goal, he said, is to create a tunneling process that will be 15 times faster than the “next best” option.

ok man good luck

lag∞n, Wednesday, 19 December 2018 04:48 (five years ago) link

Yeah Hitachi heavy industries or whoever has definitely not spent any time trying to make their tunnel boring machines faster, it’s probably low-hanging fruit

I have measured out my life in coffee shop loyalty cards (silby), Wednesday, 19 December 2018 04:51 (five years ago) link

Building the 1.14-mile tunnel took about 18 months and cost about $10 million, Musk said. The figure does not include the costs of research, development or equipment, the company said, and it is not clear whether it includes the money spent on property acquisition or labor. The $10 million is still orders of magnitude lower than a typical subway project, Musk said.

its not a subway tunnel............but itd be cool if it was

These are obviously easy to understand and improve on

tbh a determined person of wealth cld prob figure out how to build subways cheaper than we do considering the whole freakin rest of the world does

lag∞n, Wednesday, 19 December 2018 04:56 (five years ago) link

just driving underground, red faced, shouting "excellence is a passing grade in this tunnel. cylindrical coordinates are the coordinates in this tunnel."

Sufjan Grafton, Wednesday, 19 December 2018 04:57 (five years ago) link

One of the most annoying things we're going to be subjected to over the next few weeks is fanboys celebrating Elon Musk's invention of Tunnel Boring Machines, a technology that has existed for 150 years.

Being able to cost-effectively bore underground tunnels is great, and something the USA is not very good at doing, but it's not exactly a high-tech problem with high-tech solutions.

— Michael T Sweeney (@mtsw) December 15, 2018


The Boring Company, I'm fairly certain, is not doing anything innovative! They just bought an off-the-shelf TBM and are... operating it. Fine! Tunnels are neat. But it's like not really anything new or interesting.

— Michael T Sweeney (@mtsw) December 15, 2018

i mean if he makes it cheaper good for him. but the problems in the US are not technical so i'm not optimistic but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

the car skate is stupid though.

lots of weird wired anecdotes

The figure does not include the costs of research, development or equipment, the company said, and it is not clear whether it includes the money spent on property acquisition or labor.

So...$10m for? Musk's walking around money?

Ned Trifle X, Wednesday, 19 December 2018 10:02 (five years ago) link

One of the things that makes his tunnels faster is that they are too small to put any useful in like a train or a bus.
