Dream on you loopians, just don't expect me to fund your crazy ideas!
There is a new company, Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HTT) that intends to revolutionize high speed continental travel. It’s CEO, Dirk Ahlborn, recently announced an agreement with the Slovakian government to build Hyperloops from Vienna, Austria to Bratislava, Slovakia, and from Bratislava to Budapest, Hungary. Its competitor, Hyperloop One, recently tested an open air propulsion test of a vehicle with its “Blade Runner” test rig.
The Japanese “bullet trains” going at 200 mph are like snails in comparison. The new hyper-things are envisaged to do about 760 mph. That’s even faster than modern transatlantic planes by a good measure.
Another kickback scheme promoted by the kickbackees eh?
Great idea, Dirk Dirkenson. Who else have you managed to hornswoggle into buying your dreams (or at least financing them)?
Wait until a squirrel shorts out a transformer while one of these things is at speed.
Anything like Mr. Garrison’s It?
I heard the hyperloop really, really sucks...
