global terraforming

and control of tectonic movements

to get the ideal conditions you're claiming could exist

it's actual insanity

that you think that just because in theory it's possible

"global terraforming
and control of tectonic movements"

that it's possible in practice

actual insanity is ketchup on your mashed potatoes

So if I come to hour house right now with a couple hundred k

you don't think

we could create something in a vacuum

say a few km long

that could travel at extremely high speeds?

awk.

we could do it but we couldn't sustain it

but is it possible.

so what

it's not possible for actual use

so what currently stops it from being used.

REALITY

You just said it's possible.

Just not sustain it.

So explain -

I said its possible to send an object down a vaccum tube at high velocity

Yes.

Now how do you sustain it - what are the barriers to sustaining it.

well for example

if you were to take

don't banks use vacuum tubes?

a large vaccum tube and stretch it across the entire state of california

spanning desert and farmland and everything in between

all these biomes are gonna be very different

so heat expansion alone

would be a nightmare

just the differences that would come up

across the course of the tube

Heat expansion on a vacuum with an outer shell?

I think I might be considered a Puritan.

yes

then tectonic motions

would also be an issue

because we're in fucking california

If it's underground, tectonic motions are a non-issue

@Tornzy it’s a meme

The place to be during a flood is in a submarine.

The same is true for underground.

then there's of course the sheer amount of energy you'd need to run the system at all

So you are saying there is no material that can withstand tearing - it's not fucking glass.

Also it's underground

Gotta pump those Authority numbers up, Dvir. Those are rookie numbers.

THATS EVEN WORSE

HOLY SHIT

?

Don't believe what pokemon taught you.

Are you saying earthquakes are more effective to ground types.

Being underground is quite safe from earthquakes.

Oh

My

Lord.

Young one, you have a lot to learn.

Think about this.

what

Okay you condescending fucks.

if you have two slabs of land moving against each other

thats being underwater during a storm

I'm pretty sure they're...basically right.

and a tube is going between them

Rip the heads off your necks, set them on a table infront of me. And shut up.

its gonna fucking destroy it

especially if that tube

is at 99% fucking vaccum

While I explain why it's safer to be underground during an earthquake, than on top.

Most earthquake fatalities are from collapsing infrastructure, buildings, and the chaos afterwards.

"dig a hole dig a hole dig a hole"

Bookworm gets it.

If you're underground, you're shaking at the same speed and tempo as everything else.

yes but this is about running a length of vaccumm tube that's supposed to be under ideal conditions to operate across a vast swath of land that spans a fault line

Bookworm is spot on

It's the SURFACE that has all the damage passed to it.

Its like if you're under the water during a storm

isnt this much like most injuries happen at home

I even said that @Dr.Wol

and in the kitchen

The place to be during a tsunami is in a submarine.

I even sed dat @Dr.Wol

well you said flood, but yes, the principle is the same

I even said that @Dr.Wol

I even said that @Dr.Wol

REEEEEEEE

ouch

hah

DAMNIT

You wanna know why it's Sharknado and not Sharknami

FUCK

I think its funny that @ even acts like he watched the video at all seeing as he doesn't know any of the points that were actually presented and proactively rejected them on the basis of who the presenter was

ram raaaaanch

@Scribblehatch i do

Because a tsunami means nothing to a shark.

woow

Use to be a fan of Thunderf00t then he got obnoxious and my eyes were opened to the amount of straw man he does.

Why is Contro responding to me.

He might as well be a fucking scarecrow.

and why is it that sharks don't fear Tsunami's but they do fear Typhoons?

!rank @

how

Whaddaya mean how.

!rank @Scribblehatch

am I lvl 6.

cuk class ^

@ that doesn't mean his points are any less valid on this issue

i've made like 20 posts in here.

!rank

@BFG Straw man arguments are meant to make you feel that way

fuck im slacking

im slacking too

@ you claimed to have watched the video, but he's not even making any straw man arguments

They make arguments that nobody else makes or is defending to attack and break something down.

this isn't a fucking political video

the arguments he made in regards to the practicality of the hyperloop are all fairly good arguments

STRAW'S ARE BANNED IN CALI

Straw manning doesn't directly refer to politics...

He made arguments nobody was making or even trying to defend

to completely dismiss the idea

and convince others into it too.

Staws will be banned in EU by 2021 😭

@BFG to respond you the claim you stole from thunderfoot. His assumption is basically a small hole will immediately turn into such a large hole that its like you opened up the entire end of the tube itself. Basically imagine a fire hydrate leaking water from a seal vs a fully opened fire hydrant. You won't get knocked over at a leak from the hydrant but a fully opened one will knock your ass down.The assumption of instant collapse assumes that such a small hole causes enough structural damage so that the structure can't withstand the 1 atm of pressure currently around it. If i can, however, with this small hole, then the amount of stress the structure is taking is constantly going down as air floods the system. At the same time, the sleds themselves are now slowing down as air pressure is mounting. and that assumes that a loss of vacuum doesn't start an emergency stop

How will i sniff my coke now?!

I am away from wifi, tldr on tims bomb video?

@ Get a name.

It's really annoying.

@Scribblehatch Get a cooch.

well I don't see how you can fucking strawman the fact that trying to maintain a gigantic vaccum tube spanning the entire state is unviable

Don't dis @

He is bae

I took the moral test. Apparently I am some kind of purist...

Same

Dunno where mine went

But I also care

but my care was non existent

LOL

you care about purity

LOl

@Joe_Limon
- Most people who care say its Conservatives
- Some people say that Conservatives wouldn't do it since they're winning so it wouldn't be needed
- Its prolly some nutter
- The majority of uninformed people wont care since they just hear "a bomb happened" and will get scared and might turn for safety in whatever party they believe is gonna protect them

For those of you saying that the vacuum tube is not viable.

Always know, Dvir will care about you.

https://youtu.be/syK2dSExa1M?t=7m5s

Im touched

Here is a sibling and father trying to convince someone that automobiles are not practical.

Dvir means Holy Place in Hebrew after all.

It all sounds really logical, right?

I agree with you @Scribblehatch that cuk boi @ needs a avatar and a name

@Dr.Wol ty

@Grenade123 well if possible I"d like to test that

its gonna be pretty hard to justify that kind of test though

"several People are typing " (reeeeeeeeeeeeeeee in the backround)

because it would take so much resources just to conduct that test alone

@ needs a name
"Several people are typin"

`the fact that trying to maintain a gigantic vaccum tube spanning the entire state is unviable`
its like maintaining current water and gas pipe system with bigger scale.
it shouldnt be that hard.

@ You're deliberately annoying.

We can't address you or your points.

@Scribblehatch Yes. Yes I am.

moar annoying than scribs

You can if you simply asked me what you should refer to me as.

@Jasse gas pipes and water pipes do not need to maintain a 99% vaccumm and when they rupture it doesn't cripple the entire line

REEE

The point is that I shouldn't have to ask.

Then you can choose to respect my pronoun

Or not.

New person enters the room

They need to then ask

should we launch a nuclear missile at ram ranch

I identify as and

Oh right, so when you meet a new person you don't have to ask their name?

you dont

they introduce themselves

you shouldn't have to ask

@Dr.Wol How dare you identify as a verb and not a noun

lol

Suppose we all did what you're doing.

I'll have you know, i identify as a plural

OH god its happening

lol

I wish that were the case - everyone has no usernames and when you introduce yourself to each new person only those people can see it

I said earlier that i think @ is NPC source code

how dare you not identify me as your credit card information?!?!?!?!?!?!

not ur safe space

@ Stop being a jackass and get a name.

It would make life so much more worth living.

@Eastern Roman Empire BRING BACK BYZANTIUM

This is not your Safe space English Mayor HOW dare you lol

WE WILL TAKE CONSTANTINOPLE!

!

Deus vult

!

Stop forcing your speech on me @Scribblehatch

I just hear powerwolf in my backround as you said that .(in the name of God we go to heaven) !

I will choose to identify myself when you ask.

Beautiful timing @Walsp

It is

Gg you win

retake Constantinople

retake Antioch

retake Alexandria

Tucker addresses the tucker face

OH god

restore the Pentarchate

"Steven Crowder is the conservative equivalent of Jimmy Kimmel" - Tim Pool 2018

I agree, they're both not one bit funny 😛

Alexandria would be harder

25% coptic christian population

@Dr.Wol i would say acuired taste but that doesnt even work

@Dr.Wol Are you sure they didn't mean Jimmy Fallon.

jimmy fallon laughs at everything ?

nah, Crowder doesn't laugh at being greeted

he does

from time to time

you can tell him a holocaust joke he probably try to hold it in

OH god

sigh

u cant compare crowder with fallon

im not

i watched a video explaining that he might not do it on purpose. . But its so hard to NOT see it that way

Yes you did.

in his newest vid Tim compared Crowder to Kimmel

You compared Crowder with Fallon, I saw it

You guys, Dr.Wol is talkin shit

hmm

they should sell a fallon figure with a button that when you press it it fakes laugh

no

Dont be silly Crowder cant be like Fallon hes canadian

lol

😉

i probably would only laugh at Crowder if he said ey Bud like my canadian friends

BEHOLD A NEW MEME IS INNOVATED

😮

Nah. Weak.

Oh no NPC apple

It will take a byte out of your hardrive just looking at it

the face isn't the NPC stock-face

badum tisss
