Virgin Hyperloop - First Passenger Test

spawnflagger says...

https://virginhyperloop.com/pegasus has some more technical details, including that there are airlocks, and it's only a medium vacuum (100 Pa, but still very dangerous).
Their newer maglev tech looks promising though.

Bullet trains are quite convenient, but I wouldn't trust any built/run/maintained by USA passenger train companies - safety record is abysmal.

The robots were in some ways some of the most reasonable ones I've seen in movies. The balancing when moving in the way shown here would pose definite problems, but they had a variety of locomotions (I liked the fastest rotating one the best) and the joints between the pieces at least looked like they'd be fairly easy to make very solid and robust. Though the fittings between the pieces looked pretty tight, so basically if you got a rock stuck in there... Yeah... Some issues.

Other than that overall the movie was a very meh experience, and I was so disappointed by some of the physics (mostly the basic one, particularly the airlock explosion somehow causing the craft/station to de-orbit... How exactly?) that I almost wrote it off at that point. Luckily the ending kinda pulled it together again so it wasn't on the whole unpleasant, even though they hammered it in way too much.

You have spoiled it pretty well already, you fucking fuck.
Some of us do not live in the US and have not seen all the episodes yet.
You sir, are a douche of galactic proportions.

Then you don't want to know about Adama calling for volunteers for a one-way rescue mission of Hera, who was kidnapped by Boomer and taken to a Cylon colony ship ensconced near a naked singularity. Also, the doctor is Daniel, and Starbuck is his daughter. Adama finds out and blows Starbuck out an airlock and ends up crying his brains out, in the end deciding to abandon Galactica. But he doesn't realize that Kara was "special", and Boomer rescues her while she is making her getaway with Hera. I still don't understand why Starbuck's eyes and back were glowing red while she was floating in space, but I hope we'll find out this week. Oops! I probably should have put this at the beginning of my comment, but !!SPOILER ALERT!!

Oh. I feel no regret. I was just sayin. Ban em all and if they were just trying to share tips, well, they can always come back.

I say ban 'em all- let Buddha sort them out. It was a blatant self-promotion.
