    Okay then not so smart guy should stop interrupting the smart guy. And SpaceX built rockets as a private company. No other private company built rockets quit lying private companies built parts of rockets and NASA put them together. If you’re going to pretend to know something, you should actually know something or you should shut your mouth.

    FUD story! The Boring Company and Hyperloop are not the same thing, Elon never said he was making hyperloops, just published plans for others to try. Boring is still in an R&D phase, this story makes almost no sense.

      The Las Vegas loop is largely a failure, considering time it took to build, the inefficiency of the system.

      It is nowhere near the vision that was presented.

      The expansion in the works does not make it any better, as publ8c transport goes.

      @@jizzlecizzle1388 my understanding is that this project is an R&D system for the Boring company, they’re covering the full cost of building and operations, so I don’t really understand how that is “largely a failure”. The boring company is learning, making adjustments as time progresses. the city gets a free asset, that people are using daily. Is it currently as useful as a tram or subway… no. but those projects are not free to a city. So who is it failing? people who don’t walk? the city who doesn’t pay? or the boring company who is learning? or just the media?

    Musk is a self-serving jackass and a near-constant liar. Las Vegas deserves the fiasco they created for themselves.
