        Should have asked the Swiss, they probably know how to drill holes in rocks. Don’t need a startup for that…

          We know how to drill holes in the US too. That’s why Musk doesn’t sell his tunnels to people who know what they are doing, but to morons on City Council who don’t know their ass from a hole in the ground.

            Don’t know their ass from a hole in the ground

            Then what is Elon really selling them? Their own ass or a hole in the ground? 🤔

          Don’t ask Sweden, Hallandsås tunnel (8.7km) took 23 years and a lot of dead cows to complete. Turned out that the sealant Rhoca-Gil wasn’t compatible with livestock.

    What the hell kind of crap is that writing?

    Also, I’m surprised this is even this a thing, I thought he’d abandoned the boring company years ago.

      the Boring company isn’t there to make money, it’s there to make public transport projects go away

        Yeah and it unfortunately succeeded, so I’m surprised it is still around.
