Imagine how long you'd crash for in a vacuum at 120+mph. Pieces of you would be strewn about for a half a mile

The trick is they cram all the peeps in there like a large buckshot and then just open the front door and let them be flung through the barrel to their destination on the wings of vacuum

You were kind of underselling the fact that they didn't have accessible ramps. They had them, but removed them to make room for more seats. quote:Leap had removed wheelchair accessibility ramps from its buses to make room for “plush leather armchairs.” How fuckin' stupid.

Guy Goodbody posted:You need a link to support the idea that a brand new transit system involving a massive underground tunnel system built to create and sustain vacuum while also opening dozens of times per day via hundreds of car elevators to transport this new kind of see through plastic pleasure bus is going to be more expensive than the regular buses that he have now? Really? You really need to see documentation to support the claim that a massive infrastructure project based around the implementation of vacuum tube technology at a scale never before seen, and also the installation of hundreds of giant street level elevators in one of the most expensive real estate markets in the world, is going to cost more than buses? Buses, the things that even the poorest countries in the world have? Which are basically just big trucks and operate on existing roads? Lol

Trans-LoafWithTail posted:Tech bros are libertarians who want to help people, which is sort of a paradox. Tech bros are people who want to automate things that their mothers no longer do for them. Think about it. Food delivery, Uber, juice, there was one with a bed that made itself, all sorts of bullshit that grown-rear end people do for themselves but techbros want a computer to do for them because they never learned how as kids because of how loving self-absorbed they were.

Sardonik posted:I can't be the only one getting massive star citizen vibes from this. Are you saying that it's a idea that seems sort of cool, but is doomed to inapt execution and the developers pocketing millions before buying sailboats and never being heard from again? Or are you saying that you fear clipping through the floor of the bus while it's in motion? Both are valid, just curious which seems more likely.

Karate Bastard posted:* These stations will all be in Chicago. The glass on the vacu-bus looks way easier to clean jizz off of than a regular bus' wall. It's something that someone designing a mass transit vehicle should take into account.
