I look forward to a follow-up piece after someone hacks it to play porn.

Yet in Alaska we have been having a record warm winter. Its as if Climate change is real, and is changing normal weather patterns and casing extreme and unusual weather......

You really don’t understand how global warming affects weather patterns. Luckily for you, there are real scientistis that will explain it to you via the internet and old timey books

Found the guy who can't distinguish weather from climate!

“How’s your Downs Syndrome going for you?”

There’s always someone that chimes in with their SAAB story...

i think a lot of them stop around 300hp give or take... because most I4's seem to be used in transverse FWD setups. between torque steer and those poor poor front tires, i dont think theres been much of a use case beyond that.... obviously RWD can use more, but by the time a manufacturer throws money at a longitudinal…

The real issue is combustion chamber efficiency and computer modeling. Right now, we know the physics of a 500cc cylinder so well, we can get crazy with forced induction and fuel injection, and get just about any reasonable output we desire from it.

In this corner of the world I am not sure we are ready for robot bin lorries. It is only three years since these ,

A lot of Garbage trucks are now coming with controls on both the left and right side. You can switch control to either side. Which is also pretty rad. 

Depends on the car. In my Spark, there are less than three inches between the front of the backseat and the back of the front seat.

Another crazy idea - and just hear me out - is that once these larger metal vehicles are built and then attached to rails, perhaps a wider system of scheduling could be used to arrange their travels more efficiently? The municipality could even elect to charge a relatively small fee per ride, but use either tokens or …

That’s a clunky name, should be shortened at that point. Maybe Bee-Cee? I dunno, we’ll work down the line and figure something out.

To reduce rolling friction & increase energy efficiency, and to make sure the multiple vehicles all track in the same direction, maybe some metal rails could be laid down, and the vehicles could ride on metal wheels?

Guys I like where this is going.  Keep talking, i’m just gonna grab my Subway sandwich here and eat it while you guys develop this idea.

Because Kinja no longer notifies when someone stars your comments, I just have to let you know how much I appreciate the wordplay there.

That sounds promising. Perhaps you should offer to run a training course.

Maybe the solution is to have bigger vehicles that can carry more people in one go through the tunnel. If it’s really high volume, maybe link the larger vehicles together in a chain so that they all travel at once all at the same speed.

Yes, the majority of big tech’s “innovations” are old ideas done worse. 

The Loop – which runs underground from an area near the Convention Center’s West Hall to the South Hall, involves bringing people into Teslas at “stations.” They are then driven by a human – sorry folks, no self driving in the tunnel – through it to a drop-off point.
