“@MissTrade Already started DC to NY route. Hopefully start LA to SF next year. That will be true @Hyperloop w pressurized pods in near vacuum tunnels & faster than jetliner.”

“First Boring Company tunnel under LA almost done! Pending final… https://t.co/oWHlwOgCJE https://www.instagram.com/p/BinoVT6Acpd/?utm_source=ig_twitter_share”
“@WorldAndScience Almost ready to test the new Boring Company / SpaceX hyperpod prototype. Exciting video guaranteed.”
“@TEDTalks @i_firth Norway has some really cool tunnels and bridges”
“Upgraded SpaceX/Tesla Hyperloop pod speed test soon. Will try to reach half speed of sound (and brake) within ~1.2km.”
“Turns out joking about being a “rock” star because of digging tunnels (through, uh, rock — hello??) is deeply underappreciated”
“New Boring Company merch coming soon. Lifesize LEGO-like interlocking bricks made from tunneling rock that you can use to create sculptures & buildings. Rated for California seismic loads, so super strong, but bored in the middle, like an aircraft wing spar, so not heavy.”
“No technology is too advanced for The Boring Company! https://t.co/r3EJYpcpkO https://www.instagram.com/p/BgpwknyA--2/”
“@Ron_sanes No real surface is perfect, but it did pull about 250,000 lbs of muck rail cars out of a tunnel https://t.co/wlKbLwd0f7”
“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/”
“Tunnels”
“@2AvSagas I guess you could say it’s a 150 mph, underground, autonomous, electric bus that automatically switches between tunnels and lifts. So, yes, a bus.”
“Boring Co urban loop system would have 1000’s of small stations the size of a single parking space that take you very close to your destination & blend seamlessly into the fabric of a city, rather than a small number of big stations like a subway”
“Adjusting The Boring Company plan: all tunnels & Hyperloop will prioritize pedestrians & cyclists over cars”
“@journoanirban @Uber @dkhos @HyperloopOne @hyperlooptt @vccircle @vccstartups If you love drones above your house, you’ll really love vast numbers of “cars” flying over your head that are 1000 times bigger and noisier and blow away anything that isn’t nailed down when they land”
“The Boring Company flamethrower guaranteed to liven up any party! https://t.co/n2FiZimJia http://Boringcompany.com/flamethrower”
“@paulkrugman However, public transit is obviously not fully solving the problem, as most major cities have been in traffic hell for decades with no solution in sight. Multi-level tunnels can solve this, but we need much better tunneling technology, as it is currently super slow and expensive.”
“10 hat aficionados, in appreciation for their exquisite taste in millinery, will be picked at random to tour the LA tunnel & drive boring machine”
“After 50k hats, we will start selling The Boring Company flamethrower”
“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.”
“To preserve the transcendent majesty & specialness of The Boring Company cap, we are capping cap orders at 50,000 caps. Almost there ... https://t.co/YqjEQAfy3u https://www.boringcompany.com/hat/”
“@FredericLambert A Loop is like a Hyperloop, but without drawing a vacuum inside the tube. Don’t need to get rid of air friction for short routes.”
“The Boring Company will compete to fund, build & operate a high-speed Loop connecting Chicago O’Hare Airport to downtown https://t.co/bRqKpzSJjz https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/city-seeking-parties-to-fund-build-operate-ohare-express-service/”
“Picture of The Boring Company LA tunnel taken yesterday https://t.co/TfdVKyXFsJ”
“@CalebH92 There is an actual tunnel and it's getting longer every day”
“@freddier Btw, credit for The Boring Company name goes to @TalulahRiley”
“@freddier Gonna build that tunnel one hat at a time”
“@_andyoneal @patriciapaje That's just to win our Hyperloop student competition in ~1 mile tube. Practical version would have a turbo compressor on front taking ram air pressure at near sonic to hypersonic speeds & driving that thru air skiis & rearward for thrust.”
“Putting together SpaceX rocket landing blooper reel. We messed up a lot before it finally worked, but there's some epic explosion footage …”
“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/”
“@eKanishka @ChaseBlackmon1 @boringcompany Tunnels are sealed to 5 atmospheres of water & gas pressure. Just need walls around the apertures.”
“@bryanclark Hyperloop (near) vacuum tube runs parallel to SpaceX on Jack Northrop Blvd. It is 0.8 miles long and just under 6 ft in diameter.”
“Hyperloop pod run by team WARR https://t.co/ntaMsoxkZE”
“A Model S in The Boring Company tunnel being dug under Los Angeles (starting in Hawthorne) https://t.co/tQVD5KkIvb https://www.instagram.com/p/BYUeGjmAh8N/”
“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 …”
“Congratulations to WARR team from Tech Univ Munich for winning 2nd @Hyperloop competition! Peak speed of 324 km/h, which is over 200 mph!!”
“Just arrived at the @Hyperloop competition final. Student teams have amazing talent!”
“@OfficeOfOMAR @HyperloopOne I hope they and any others trying to advance transport technology succeed”
“@SmileSimplify @beboutside @Hyperloop @SpaceX @paradigm_hype @swissloop The latter. There are pretty long gaps between each team run, so livestream is not the way to go.”
“@beboutside @Hyperloop @SpaceX @paradigm_hype @swissloop SpaceX and The Boring Company are running the Hyperloop competition”
“@SeeDecentral @technology I'm not coming for anything. Just digging some tunnels and might draw a vacuum on some of them.”
“SpaceX student Hyperloop top speed competition coming up soon! https://t.co/R7FAPf6HLB https://x.com/hyperloop/status/892805772488388612”
“Testing The Boring Company car elevator https://t.co/zZkFz6ATGY https://www.instagram.com/p/BW_-mlYAMrs/”
“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”
“@mariom An underground Hyperloop would mean no disruption above ground and be way faster, so I think it is he right way to go”
“@ejohnson99 City of Chicago already approached us about doing a high speed tunnel from O'Hare to downtown. They've been great.”
“@curiousworlds For sure. First set of tunnels are to alleviate greater LA urban congestion. Will start NY-DC in parallel. Then prob LA-SF and a TX loop.”
“Just received verbal govt approval for The Boring Company to build an underground NY-Phil-Balt-DC Hyperloop. NY-DC in 29 mins.”
“Not as much as tunnels though”
“No longer waiting for Godot. It has begun boring and just completed the first segment of tunnel in LA.”
