[Eupalinos of Megara appears out of a time portal from ancient Ionia] Wow, you guys must be really good at digging tunnels by now, right?
The agency ultimately fined Boring more than $112,000 over eight violations it deemed “serious.” The company is, as Musk businesses are wont to do, contesting it.

Fuck everything about these tunnels.
- He proposed them to stop the city from implementing a subway system (fuck that shit).
- He first proposed them as being effectively a subway/hyperloop but then stopped when that cost too much money
- He then turned them into just underground private roadways accessible only to teslas.
Fuck that shit. The problem the city was trying to solve wasn’t “We need more highspeed roads” it’s “We need to be able move more people”. And musk torpedoed that with a pointless underground tunnel.
Subways would have been way cheaper to operate, served more locations, and would not have been this stupid exclusive system for tesla owners to show off an LED light display.
Why didn’t we just make train tunnels instead?
