It’s a solved problem for real metros. Automated systems exist the world round. My city has had and automated metro for nearly 40 years. It’s rather easy with rail.

The metro in my city runs automated trains every 2-3 min at rush hour (and I think it can run them every 99s if needed) there is zero possibly the joke of a system using Tesla could keep up And sure enough 5000 ppl is a far cry from 25,000

I would love to use safari but for years now it will randomly just start refreshing pages. I have no idea why or even where to begin to debug it so on chrome I stay. Removing manifest v2 might be the kick to try Firefox again but I’d still

Sure they do when you have proper high speed rain. That journey could be 10 relaxing hours at 300kph. No security, no awful plane noise and seats. Quiet comfy and relaxing (or overnight and you can sleep) It’s also far better for the enviro

Apple is launching satellite iMessage this fall, I imagine that’s what they will start to charge for after X years. SOS uses do little data in comparison it’s not worth charging
