Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@jfk2214 says : Hyperloop actually refers to the loop the money takes from investors pockets to Musk/ Branson pockets.>> <<@animatem says : @Thunderf00t that had to feel so good... So good. Now, I am not convinced about Starship, BECAUSE, Elon inadvertently put real engineers in charge. SLS is the only competitor and you have not yet said how bad THEY are. The government will spend on space, and Space-X has some record of eventually getting things done. They are really the only viable transport to the Space Station. They also have secondary income via Starlink. I am also aware that they did put that big monster almost into space, and probably could have. Who cares if it can't land. If it can make it into space with 40 or more tons of hardware, that means many more satellites. So, convince me.>> <<@primerye says : The Musk saying this concept is easy to that journalist is like some dipshit saying "yeah, a space elevator is easy, it's just a space satellite connected to the earth with a cable and a car that goes back an forth on it, it's really simple and will be available in Q3 of next year.">> <<@ethakis says : Hyper loop is really good at what it's intended to do, waste money and cock block highspeed rail.>> <<@Nirsi says : I'm not going to lie, when it was the time of Hyperloop hype, I was one of the believers and your video really pissed me off, because it seemed like one man believe he could outdo the work of tens or hundreds of men. Well, since then, I've been healed from the Musk cult virus and I can see how blind I was to all the BS he was telling his followers over the years. I must thank you and people like you who do not fear criticizing BS, even when a super wealthy celebrity is trying to argue why it is the best thing since cubed sugar.>> <<@solomassive6233 says : I genuinely feel bad for WV, my grandparents lived there and my grandpa was a coal miner. WV is so economically depressed, they were just hoping for an economic miracle and were scammed. Yes they were stupid about it but broke people will believe crazy things.>> <<@somuchfortalent says : The new religion of "skepticism".>> <<@rosspharlanmiller5316 says : I say the same about space travel(Space X, NASA,ESA all space money scams). Bull. But hey Video(and that can't be faked) and cgi says that i am wrong. So....how are there fabric space suits in a 10 to minus 11-17 Torr?? A railroad cylinder of half to three quarter inch steel collapses when internal pressures are reduced to a few lbs when external pressures are 14.7lbs per sq inch. So...."astronots" space walking, the ISS and hyperloop are proven factual bull. So why are so many people deluded? They wasted an "education" because they didn't have an open mind, critical thought and discernment; the true measures of intelligence. We can all be fooled. Look at the reality presented to us from kindergarden by the system. Hubris and surrealist mathematics and cartainly not founded in an objective reality governed by the scientific method. Just smoke and mirrors and empty wallets and minds. And snake oil meat puppets. Like a puppet called Leon Skum. Ps. I have 3 O Levels, left school 84 at 16 no further formal Ed. Boy did I save money. Better than Hyperdoop anyway.>> <<@akunawuran5116 says : I just noticed that guy in 9:24 mark is just wrong or stupid he say its Carbon neutral because they run on vacuum tube and completely seal like that not how things work the gas need to go somewhere out from the system where you gonna store them inside the vacuum tube>> <<@erebos3526 says : It was a literal pipe dream>> <<@branislavjakubovic4973 says : who ever invested with this BS s got 2 be the dumbest fuck around, ohh the government money, never mind :))) its americans>> <<@fireh3211 says : The americans has too much tax payer money.>> <<@davidelghammer6449 says : Love it!! China is making progress!! We should be more like China! OMG that didn't age well from "tofu dregs construction" to the housing debacle, the giant roads initiative designed to subjugate weaker countries, to massive bankruptcy to young people refusing to participate in the BS and shutting down. Oh my 😅😅😅😅 I root for thinking! Question authority! Love the videos!!>> <<@mikerash-pc4jc says : Elon musk is not the smartest person on earth. He is the newest scam artist. I don’t get it? I can spot a liar from 300 yard. When Elon is lying , you can tell if his lips are moving and he will always be looking down. You know instead of looking you in the eye. He has succeeded in his fraud for almost 2 decades. If not for falcon 9 and star-link he would already be in prison. Starship and Tesla shelf life is already up. Can you say going out of business!>> <<@wegder says : I think the hyperloop was my first questioning of Musk and his incredible cult.>> <<@biljancanin says : Patience pays off, even if it takes 8 years 😆>> <<@ripley_hicks_newt_86 says : The media whores eating up any bullshit with that weird excitement is so hilarious.>> <<@periurban says : Oh, I really enjoyed this! "packets of car" and the Carlin quote about stupidity were amongst my favorite moments. But I have to say "techno-Ponzi-rocket-Jesus" made me laugh.>> <<@user-cx4ll4rj1t says : I think most of us understood Elon was just an uneducated thief and has probably wasted more money than any other person that ever lived - other people money that is......... how are all those Tesla owners doing? lol....>> <<@mikerash-pc4jc says : Hey this was Elons project. All of his investments are head in this same direction.>> <<@bazoandonov9929 says : Musk is an Idiot>> <<@palbi says : LMAO every single West Virginian who spoke was a brainless buckethead. Officials from the south are something else.>> <<@palbi says : Weird how Casey gaslights about HSR. Copium I guess? HSR works great in Europe such as Germany. Sie haben Berge und Unebenheiten dort drüben.>> <<@svensubunitnillson1568 says : RFC1925 rule 11 Every old idea will be proposed again with a different name and a different presentation, regardless of whether it works.>> <<@66cuda says : Years ago i did traffic control/closing a lane at space x, in Hawthorne, ca so they could do work, it was a non union job, not even prevailing wage>> <<@DanDeGaston says : My two main take aways from this video. #1) Thunderfoot is not an engineering expert, but as a physics expert who knows the weaknesses in an engineering design. All of the weaknesses Thunderfoot points out in his previous videos never had satisfactory answers, but people just kept pushing forward with their belief taht the system could work, even though they didn't want to address the most difficult points first. (AKA, Actually building the long distance vacuum tube.) #2) Thunderfoot never said a Hyperloop is impossible, he just says it is a really complex idea with dozens of weak points. But he never says it is impossible, which means Thunderfoot actually would applaud a working hyperloop system if someone got it to work, But the current approach was dumb (If you do want to build a hyperloop, first prove you can build a vacuum tube that is 1 km in length with multiple expansion/contraction joints, and prove to yourself that this 1 KM long tube is resistant to sabotage, weather, extreme changes in heat/cold and holds a strong vacuum for months without difficulty . . . Once you actually get a working vacuum tube for 1 km length, then build a 20 km tube that has the same resillience as a vacuum tube. After you get a working 20 km vacuum tube, THEN BUILD THE FREAKING TRANSPORT PODS!!!! Seriously building the transport pods BEFORE the vacuum tube is like putting the cart before the horse.)>> <<@ThorstenKreutzenberger says : Full self drive is possible with Hyper loop. Thats why he liked it.>> <<@seeyaatthebema says : Hyperloop and moon landing...an apt comparison.>> <<@alastairleith8612 says : who's the bow tie at 43:17?>> <<@alastairleith8612 says : 39:13 is that an, er, pineapple icon, on an, um, legit concrete block?!>> <<@alastairleith8612 says : "Hyperloop Certification Centre" 33:00. that alone… if any doubt remained…the Richard Branson "Virgin HCC" LOL>> <<@jean-guillaumelonjaret5741 says : University presidents, politicians and big stupid shiny expensive new ideas: always a good match.>> <<@davidhatch7603 says : West Virginia needs to bring fraud charges.>> <<@straftanz7512 says : West Virginia mountain momma take me home hyperloop>> <<@mrfeckoff162 says : A god damn good fought war. Congrats, your video six years ago was just brilliant.>> <<@veggiebad2087 says : Reddit was a mistake.>> <<@dognameddisgrace1080 says : One thing gets me really irritated by the whole Hyperloop saga. I mean, if they had some real scientists working on the whitepaper, wouln't they at least consider going at it the other way round by pressurizing, rather than de-pressurizing the tube? This could theoretically solve a few self-induced problems: 1) The tube wouldn't be as fragile and susceptible to micro holes 2) If you could pressurize the air in the tube and make it go constantly at 120-180 mph inside it, it could serve as a propellant pushing the carts inside it to reach the nominal speed of the entire loop (like bullets in the barrel). Actual carts could thus be cheaper. 3) Any structural failure of the system would be stretched more in time, resulting in the loop coming more slowly to a stop. 4) We'd need to think out how the in/out points of the system would work, but it still sounds less difficult than designing the in/out points into the actual vacuum loop. 5) It's just my imagination and understanding of physics, but I feel like it would be easier to implement heat expansion/contraction into a pressurized, rather than vacuum tube. My intuition tells me it still wouldn't work at scale, but I think it at least theoretically would sound like they put some thought into the concept.>> <<@robertplatt1693 says : I remember as a kid doing a school paper on Boeing SST.>> <<@RyanLesnerhatesneebsgaming says : Listen I don't want to be the one to say this. Elon is creating a massive potato gun.>> <<@ChimpFromSpace says : It looks like the days of vaporware being the hot new thing in the world of money laundering are finally coming to an end.>> <<@rtz549 says : Total Barnum Bailey South African Huckster!>> <<@Zminator1986 says : Just finished binging you're Hyperloop Saga. Congratulations on standing firm on truth and reasoning against these idiots with the same intelligence of a crypto-bro and receiving the vindication you rightfully deserve.>> <<@jacekmarczyk4436 says : It is amazing how quickly one can lose credibility. It is even more amazing how (uneducated) people can get excited and convincingly speak of BS as if it existed already even though it doesn't. Clueless idiots. Physics versus delusion.>> <<@jacekmarczyk4436 says : All these clowns that appear in the video speak like E. Holmes of Theranos.>> <<@MaYstruction says : That song really is a masterpiece by Conan!>> <<@nukeacitrus883 says : Elon musk keeps repeating that “We’ll totally have self driving cars tomorrow , you guys!”, earning him several billions of dollars from pure hype, and these buffoons can burn several thousands of dollars an hour without getting ANY result. Money talks loud enough to drown out any sense of reason. 😂>> <<@jetdigital says : NO I GOT YOUR BACK MY FRIEND>> <<@onradioactivewaves says : Its like a tube with an air hockey table>> <<@ThatsCrazyBro3752 says : I can’t believe the Simpsons, once again, predicted the future>> <<@user-zb9lv3gh8s says : Elaine Chow.... Oh my god, so that abortion was committed by... (wait for it...) THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION who didnt see that coming>>
