I know how they work; I was a network engineer at one point in my career. Please show where my statement was wrong; I didn't say VPNs guarantee anonymity; I said not using one guarantees you will not be anonymous
This is where I tell you how unique and interesting I am

It doesn't. I don't have to have played in the NFL to know when a quarterback makes a shitty pass. It's funny how factoring in cost has absolutely no meaning to you regarding whether or not HSR is feasible 🤦♂️
Ok, you just outed yourself, "assumption" and "hypothesis" are 2 completely different meaning words. Hypotheses are testable; assumptions are not
Another one that gets the "For the 5 billionth time" disclaimer: The U.S. is not Europe nor Spain; the U.S. has way more per capita air and road travelers than Spain. "It works there so it must work here" is not a hypothesis, it's an opinion
I don't need to do anything. CityNerd's "analysis" lacked cost assessments; his only reasoning for "Let's build this" is how long it takes to get from point A to point B via air, rail, and car. No "data" was given other than distances between cities.
- I've been a software engineer for the past 40 years with the last 10 years focusing on data engineering so I'm pretty sure I have some expertise on the topic of data, but feel free to make some more assumptions as counter arguments
- An inherent problem with a system like this is you need to either factor in cost to prevent terrorist attacks, or leave it out and wait for an attack to happen. Both approaches leave out cost estimates. Another omitted data point 3/
- Not once does he mention cost to build the system out, nor a ticket price point which would make enough travelers ditch auto or air, nor the number of expected travelers at that price point, all three of which are needed in order green light the project 2/
I watched the video the week it was released, dipshit; I'm also about as far left as it gets so right off the bat you've made 2 erroneous assumptions. Let's go over the video: - Multiple times he says "I'm using the assumption that...". Assumptions aren't data. Sense a pattern here? 1/
"Why c# stand out" Someone needs a remedial English grammar class
This is one guy's opinion, not data
For the 5 billionth time, the US doesn't have the population density to support mass high-speed rail
Those weird square lights have me worried
Search "Darrelle Revis"
The game doesn't work in touch mode on a Surface Pro
It's a separate argument. The US has definitely failed with its tax policies; it doesn't change the fact that the US has both a deeply ingrained car culture combined with the most robust air travel infrastructure in the world. It doesn't make sense to spend money on a problem that doesn't exist
Guaranteed nobody's sleeping with this loser
U.S. <> Sweden. The there are a number of logistical and cultural hurdles that make it unrealistic in the U.S. First of all, where is all this money going to come from?
Again, the U.S. doesn't have anywhere near the population density to make widespread rail cost effective
Unless you're using a VPN you are already easily identifiable
Mississippi needs to stop and ask themselves why they are at the bottom of every meaningful ranking
I don't know, did you ask the other people if this is what they want?
So because it's good for you we should spend money on it?
I get that it's superior to traditional rail for long distances. It doesn't negate my argument that the US doesn't have the population density to make it cost effective
Come on man, there aren't any maglev systems faster than a 737. Also, it would cost trillions to build this out. Where is the money coming from?
For the 5 billionth time the U.S. doesn't have the population density that China has in order to support widespread high-speed rail
Why is it a binary situation?
Everyone accepts this except employers
As soon as they recharge in 5 minutes and cost the same or less as their ICE equivalent, I'm in
Dude looks like he's had multiple sandwiches thrown at him
Yep. He pimped out pre-teen native girls for his men to rape
Just July? 👀
Just...no. We need scientists and economists in government, not personalities
Can we fucking knock it off with Boise State already? Put them in the BIG or SEC and they're mid at best
Can we stop it with Boise State already?
The people from NZ are not being dragged off the street because of their skin color. SMH
How the fuck do you watch a portrait video "fullscreen"?
If he tries to take someone into custody without a warrant, stand your ground and shoot him
LeBron tops Jordan in the flop department, I'll give him that
What does this have to do with the story?
BBS or die!
Now you know why I replied to the original post
I'm pretty sure the state of Iowa will have a big problem with this seeing as how they get over 75% of their electricity from wind
In total I've done this wash, rinse, repeat routine at least 200 fucking times
I report, block, and click "Show less like this". NONE OF IT WORKS. I don't interact with any of these accounts FFS
Just so you understand how bad this is, this showed up 5 minutes after I posted this message, FFS FIX THE GODDAMN BUTTON
When are you going to fix "Show less like this"? I click that button a dozen times every day when pics of hairy, shirtless guys grabbing their crotch show up on my feed, yet you keep showing this type of content to me. If you need help with this I'm a software engineer currently between jobs...

Wind works all the time, that's why they have wind "farms", because if the wind is not blowing in one area it probably is in another
It's like a comedy duo and Powell is the straight man
Yes, the farming megacenter of Utah
Please name a company that has zero security issues
Note to self: Don't drive in Sawyer County
They used a phone to shoot this?
Everyone in LEO should have a degree, hopefully in psychology, and be required to take an IQ exam
when did Raggedy Ann become "Annabelle"?
You get to determine for everyone else that it's trashy shit?
Another Republican hypocrite
It never said this. Stop posting this nonsense
I would argue you need to get out more
This is not surprising since Satya was thinking about getting rid of Xbox when he became CEO
Riley Gaines, macroeconomics genius
I'm not whining. You made the incorrect claim that Clark got a shit ton of calls her way. She didn't
Only president to cut taxes during wartime
Somebody needs to slap the smirk off that asshole's face
If we had nationalized oil we could be in a situation similar to Norway
Isn't his entire persona based on leering at women?
I don't need leg day bro
We are on the dumbest planet in the universe
And you think this rail system that has yet to be built is a short-term solution?
Because...?
Spending more money than China on battery tech so we can get electric vehicles commonplace sooner rather than later. Any more questions?
And we replace them with...?
That map represents every populated place in the country?
Picture all the roads in the country, now duplicate that with rails. Does that make sense?
This is not feasible. You would have to put rails in every populated place in the country.
It's because this country is continually getting dumber and poorer. The dumb and poor are easy to convince that all of their problems are the fault of everyone but the GOP
It's not easy putting on makeup when you're in labor
I know a guy that gets briefed by the FBI as he works in cybersecurity. He told me in January 2020 that COVID was going to be bad. If he (and I) knew it at that point in time then Trump absolutely knew it
And thinks wind turbines are windmills
I've left butter on my counter in a butter dish with a lid my entire adult life and have had no issues
Idiocracy come to life
No, but his tab is no longer relevant
LOL I'll take that bet
Grow the fuck up and save this shit for Grindr
Yeah I don't get why Honey-Nut Cheerios NEED to look golden
Grow the fuck up, asshole, this isn't Grindr
BTW, these storms are only going to get much, much worse. A warming atmosphere creates more storms that have more energy. Stuff like this is going to be normal in a few decades...
WTF are you babbling about?
There's a reason they build wind farms
You realize they have more stories than this, right?
It's amazing the number of whining fucking children there are on this platform
You realize NPR has other stories, right?
WTF are you babbling about
Unlikely as it can't compete with solar and wind
I came here to get away from the nutballs like you on X. Bye
NASA is a Marxist organization?
