“@WorldAndScience Almost ready to test the new Boring Company / SpaceX hyperpod prototype. Exciting video guaranteed.”
“Might be possible to go supersonic in our test Hyperloop tube, even though it's only 0.8 miles long. Very high accel/decel needed …”
“The demo ride takes you in *same* car on road, down elevator, zips through tunnel using guide wheels, up elevator at destination & then drives on normal roads back to start”
“@SciGuySpace Yes, hardware-in-the-loop testing of software is essential”
“Maybe there should be 2 providers for Chicago advanced transit. Monopolies are so boring ... https://t.co/hXJBtKgbiB https://www.teslarati.com/elon-musk-boring-company-chicago-ohare-tunnel-final-two-bids/”
“Boring Company Hyperloop will take you from city center under ground & ocean to spaceport in 10 to 15 mins https://t.co/VhpfhgdXSd https://x.com/tedtalks/status/988501449586987008”
“10 hat aficionados, in appreciation for their exquisite taste in millinery, will be picked at random to tour the LA tunnel & drive boring machine”
“@MarioNawfal Tunnels will be important on Mars”
“@BLKMDL3 @boringcompany Vegas Boring Co tunnel”
“Next year’s @Hyperloop competition will be in a 10km vacuum tunnel with a curve”
“It shall be called "The Boring Company"”
“@techreview Director of CERN asked me about Boring Co building the new LHC tunnel when we were at the @royalsociety. Would probably save several billon Euros.”
“It means that AWS is in the loop and can take out Signal at any time”
“Another great thing about many layers of interconnected tunnels with ramps & elevators is that they can go from near your home all way to popping up at destination parking lot”
“Will be presenting & taking questions about The Boring Company plans for Los Angeles at 7pm on Thursday”
“Discussing physics of tunnels with Mayor Vargas (who has a physics background). Hawthorne support for The Boring Company much appreciated. https://t.co/UAOCildbnT https://x.com/sandymazza/status/888511194553737216”
“@JonErlichman Boring Company: Flamethrower (Not a)”

“@boringcompany @ResortsWorldLV @LVCVA The Boring Company just connected Resorts World hotel to Vegas Convention Center!”
“We took the SpaceX/Tesla Hyperloop pusher pod for a spin by itself a few days ago to see what it… https://t.co/4hr1yN37he https://www.instagram.com/p/BYckipugds5/”
“No technology is too advanced for The Boring Company! https://t.co/r3EJYpcpkO https://www.instagram.com/p/BgpwknyA--2/”
“New @Hyperloop top speed of 463 km/h!!”
“SpaceX student Hyperloop top speed competition coming up soon! https://t.co/R7FAPf6HLB https://x.com/hyperloop/status/892805772488388612”
“Fundamental advantage of layers of tunnels is you can have as many lanes as you want going in any direction. Will feel like folding space from one part of a city to another.”
“But The Boring Company is right behind you at 1/15th your speed & soon will be 1/10th! Start sweating …”
“And we start digging the tunnel tonight https://t.co/UYSIU0qg34 https://x.com/hyperloop/status/825204857975894017”
“@ArtemisConsort Government-enforced monopolies always result in a broken feedback loop for serving the people”
“@TechAmazing @UniverCurious Tunnels!!”
“All Boring Loops will include continuously circulating cars dedicated to pedestrians & cyclists”
“@boringcompany Congrats Boring Company team!”
“@Tesmanian_com Zip around Vegas super fast with Teslas in tunnels!”
“@JohnnaCrider1 @stats_feed In the coming years, Boring Co will attempt to build a working Hyperloop. From a known physics standpoint, this is the fastest possible way of getting from one city center to another for distances less than ~2000 miles. Starship is faster for longer journeys.”
“@FrancisSuarez @CityofMiami Cars & trucks stuck in traffic generate megatons of toxic gases & particulate, but @boringcompany road tunnels under Miami would solve traffic & be an example to the world. Spoke with @RonDeSantisFL about tunnels last week. If Governor & Mayor want this done, we will do it.”
“@ValaAfshar Tunnels are the solution to traffic. You can have as many levels as you want. Usable tunnel depth far exceeds tallest buildings, so would work even for New York or Beijing.”
“RT @Real_RobN: And here is: Elon Musk: “Effectively, there’s a giant fraud loophole: the government can send money to an NGO that is no l…”
“Not as much as tunnels though”
“26 ft diameter tunnel running 2 miles under D.C. https://t.co/XFQkioEsg8”
“@shaunmmaguire The throughout in the Vegas tunnels is already better than an average subway btw. It’s a myth that subways are super efficient.”
“@vincent13031925 Will also be launching The Boring Company China on this trip”
“Upgraded SpaceX/Tesla Hyperloop pod speed test soon. Will try to reach half speed of sound (and brake) within ~1.2km.”
“Boring Company guide to why tunnels are awesome & safest place to be in an earthquake https://t.co/ZZIPQlscw1 http://boringcompany.com/faq”
“Hyperloop Alpha at http://t.co/ZRTcT2b8bP and http://t.co/7cucKKprPB http://t.co/LYhuRxUntA http://spacex.com/hyperloop”
“@BillyM2k We are changing the auto-reply from 💩 to a “We will get back to you soon” infinite loop”
“Will be building a Hyperloop test track for companies and student teams to test out their pods. Most likely in Texas.”
“This time, the vacuum tunnel will be a bit longer & SpaceX will provide some advance funding for student teams with most promising designs. Bonus award for all race pods that exceed half the speed of sound!”
“@flcnhvy @boringcompany Fallout-themed opening party for Vegas Loop happening as soon as allowed!”
“@tobi It’s a game-changer. Buildings are 3D, which requires transport to be 3D to solve congestion. Many layers of tunnels underground to impedance match to the many floors of buildings above ground.”
“That special hat delivery will take place deep within the real, but fictional (of course), tunnel we are building under LA while you drive the giant machine blindfolded. This will actually happen.”
“Imma gonna dig that tunnel with this here hammer”
