unfortunately the same effect isn’t achieved when people just take the headset off and go to bed in their own home
the problem is that you still need a driver, so frequency is going to be limited, which makes the service barely usable. Lack of places for vehicles to pass also limits possible frequency on these rural lines.
the idea behind monocab is that you can just throw more vehicles at the problem, so people can either just order a cab or you can have them constantly circulating like a very strange merry-go-round.
Railbuses are still good, but they made a lot more sense in the past. These days people have very very little tolerance for waiting.
this verse is why muslims don’t eat pork, understandably
on the testing tracks, because it’s new technology and needs to be exhaustively tested before the government allows it to be put into service.
like, trains were also new technology at one point, being new doesn’t somehow inherently make it bad lmao
that’s where the workouts enter the picture
unfortunately i am now left with 0% and am having a panic attack
fuck the idea that you have to give 100% in any situation other than life or death, we should be expected to give like 60% at most
F2 is such a boring name though, we should change it
reality stuff is so exhausting because they can never just actually have it be real, like good lord give me 10 people on a tropical island in the style of survivorman! It doesn’t have to be drama, people like slow tv and humans just like seeing other humans do things, and the budget would be some camera equipment and a helicopter with medical staff on standby…
i want to outlive the last fascist
he travels the entire world in two (maybe 3? idk if any country has christmas outside of 24th/25th) nights, of course it’s going to be impossible to wake him from his torpor the rest of the year!
iirc deep rock galactic specifically lets you kick people with the message “oops, this was meant to be a private lobby”, which is quite funny
thank you for justifying my dislike of the name
isn’t it literally just a fork of mastodon?
exactly, i’m catiously optimistic because if this works it could be kinda revolutionary, if rural germans can be convinced to use some form of public transport that’s a huge step towards weaning that hideously car-brained nation off the deathmobiles.
and the big thing with these is that they just run on normal tracks, so you can just… start running normal trains once you see that ridership with the monocabs is reaching sufficient numbers!
have you actually looked at what we’re talking about, like at all? or are you just following the programming of “small vehicle=bad”?
and unsurprisingly it’s a german project, a country which is absolutely fucking covered in rural lines that are just rusting away
like, holy shit, can we stop branding everything that isn’t a bog-standard train as “tech bro gadgetbahn”? this thing very explicitly has a specific problem it’s trying to solve.
and that is why they must never be allowed to escape the mirror universe
even if you like ICE you should call the cops on them, because they won’t prove they’re ICE, so you don’t actually know if it’s ICE or a group of unaffiliated shitheads using the excuse to do whatever they want.
that’s true to a degree, but not for 10k hours, 10k hours is literally the amount of time people use as a benchmark for slogging away at something until you master it and i can’t think of any FPS game that is quite that varied unless you just play a new map every day
