The YouTube Adam Something had similar comments. For example, the Hyperloop from Musk would be more efficient if you'd use pods on rails instead of Tesla's, and make the pods longer like a train. It's called a subway. Or other pod like ideas. What if you make them longer which would be more energy efficient, with one driving engine and carts behind it which you can fill with people or goods. It's called a fucking train. Years and years of development into what we have now, then to have a stupid narcissistic scam artist wanting to reinvent something which works perfectly into some futuristic looking concept which would make a perfectly fine system broken and less efficient. "Please give me money, oh people on Kickstarter, as for I think I know better then years of evolution, research and development. Don't do the math, trust me, I have a flashy computer animation to prove how cool my idea is. I did not finish school, my dad gave me a lot of money because he says I'm special." Floating mega cities, pods, self driving cars, terraforming Mars, vacuum washing machines, vacuum tunnel systems, solar panel roads, etc etc etc. Next to Adam Something I can recommend ThunderF00t on YouTube. A scientist joking about Musk his stupidity and other tech kickstarter scammers, breaking their scams with science.

Everything becomes either a train or a commie block if you iterate enough on the idea.

Are trains the crabs of the transportation world?
