LOL yes! A US citizen has more to fear from the FBI, local police force, domestic white collar criminals or even domestic petty criminals than they do the Chinese government.
The tolerances for the tube itself in most parts is not the issue. The tolerances at the points most likely to leak are the real issue. I guess we'll see.
I guess that means that you'll have to have really precise parking and stopping, have pressure gates to connect to all of the entrances to the train and make sure to maintain each gate with more points of failure and depressurization. The logistics of parking properly (AI assistance would be nice). It could be faster to connect logistically, but definately more points of failure. Then again even if the pressure fails, the concequence is only wasted money. its still a functional mag lift train.
If I lived in a country where the government focused on the future like China does, I'd rather invest in biomedical research, sustainable agriculture, and researching the means to industrialize without harming the environment.
The advantage of lowering air pressure is less wind resistance which is a factor. However if the tubes are longer the more likely they are to break and not able to be hold pressure. Also between stops, if the tunnel needs to be re pressurized which could logistically lose any advantage of time savings of pressurized tubes.
Maybe it can work if they build it very deep and it an express train that only goes between capital cities of each province or something like that.
I can joke about a kafkaesque version of Mac that hides that after you put in your credit card info in, it defaults to subscribing to viruses as a service. You can disable the viruses, but you have to pay even more to the non viral version.
Lack of melanin is not the same as whiteness. Whiteness is not biological. It is socially constructed. Once upon a time Itialians and Irish were not considered white. What was considered white among "hispanic" peoples is quite inconsistant. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Hispanic_and_Latino_Americans Recently liberals have been happily calling Russians "orcs" even though they are also fair skinned.
Whiteness is a super-structural phenomenon to contrast people that are "colored". The differentiation gives preferential treatment to "white" people over "colored" people. To eliminate whiteness is to eliminate white supremecy. You can have cultural ties to English, Irish, German, or American culture without being "white".
During the start of European colonization of Africa, Asia, and the Americas, the mythology of white supremacy and the burden for white people to "civilize" these people is the justification for colonization. White supremecy was created to justify colonization, genocide, and slavery. All of these allowed colonizing nations to believe that they are justified to exploit the non white peoples for wealth. These attitudes carried over into capitalism and also used to exploit people of color for greater profits. The white proletariat were exploited but not to the extent of the colored proletariat.
It is up to radicals to push back against the inertia of history. If we don't work to destroy whiteness, white supremacy will continue. We have to acknowledge the wealth stolen for generations, psychological harm inflicted for generations, and if one is understood as white, distance themselves from their whiteness. Destroying whiteness destroys coloredness. Only then can people just be people.

However I'd be worried if my brain implant was hastily approved in general, but for this man the technology improved his life so I'm sure he's going to enjoy it.
(edit) Its kind of wierd that they don't have a picture of the patient, but I do understand respecting privacy of patients.
Capitalism has winners and losers and the winners don't like competition. This leads to monopoly. The real questions is if the monopoly meets the needs of the people and have a way for the people to fight those in power with the excesses.
look at this article and her other articles. She was real with people, but she left Vox this year and she didn't publish that many articles in thestreet before she left.
Look at the list of these articles.
https://www.vox.com/22946366/the-big-squeeze
She either has to get a paycheck from a paper but she can't criticize capitalism because her editors will fire her. So she shit this crap out and this is the crap that gets published.
I'm getting the impression this article is a test if the editor will actually publish this crap. That's where we are at now.
Slave Empires,Feudalism, Mercantilism and Capitalism are grand structures that humans put themselves. Of course more pieces of a grand human structure will die in a period of centuries in systems that span the planent compared to just a small part of the world in a few decades
