NEWS: Dubai is building a 4 mile long @boringcompany loop tunnel with four stations linking the Dubai International Financial Centre and Dubai Mall, with an eventual length of ~14 miles.

Only @Tesla vehicles will be used in the tunnel of course.

"This phase will pave the way for expansion into the full project alignment, which will extend up to ~14 miles and include 19 stations, connecting Dubai World Trade Centre and the financial district with Business Bay."

Hard to say why but I’ve always found something kinda cool about the glitz of Dubai. I’ve perused some travel information in the past and it looks like a great place to visit.

Unless I’m reading it all wrong, the UAE seems to like Americans in general. They seem more tolerant that many other Moslem nations. I get the feeling that they’re more interested in making money than making revolution and violence.

The only downside is that it looks like it’s very expensive to be a tourist there - even if one is avoiding the 5-star hotels and restaurants.

It’s getting less Boring all the time.

That company is really digging a hole for itself.

That s hole wouldn’t even have an outhouse without a massive imported near slave labor immigrant work force.

It also a great place to buy a slave. Slaves do most of the work in the Emirates and Saudi

This Boring company tunnel is in Dubai not Saudi Arabia.
And Saudi Arabia has had plenty of highly successful mega projects.
You wanna talk about Newsom’s “high speed rail” which is running like 10 times over budge, far behind schedule and has still not even built a working train yet?

Dubai is is part of the Arab Emirates, I mentioned. “United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a federal semi-constitutional monarchy in West Asia, situated at the eastern end of the Arabian Peninsula. It is composed of seven emirates: Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah, and Fujairah.”

So you consider an 8 trillion dollar Saudi boondoggle a success?

Don’t change the subject - conflating is a sure sign of a losing argument.
