In that order, preferably. Fuck this techbro shit.
You’re forgetting a fundamental one:
Technology is not mature yet, we'll need another 10 years til we could make those work.
Just let Elon Musk handle it, it will be ready in two year tops. Perpetually two years away.
He'll get two miles of underground sidewalks put in during four of those two years.
And 6 years after starting his two year project it'll go bankrupt because no one is paying to use his underground sidewalk service.
Looking around the infrastructure of Texas, it's gonna be a whole lot longer than 10 years if they decide to make anything sidewalk safe.
Better get used to walking on grass if you choose to walk somewhere here.
Whats wrong with walking on the grass? It always blows my mind people choose to walk in the road, as close to vehicles as possible, rather than choose the clearly safer option and walk on the grass.
I'm genuinely curious why so many people are afraid of the grass, fuck, ill walk in the weeds/trees before I walk on the side of a road.
The road isn't a better option but issues with grass in residential areas:
And on the larger sidewalks you can ride bikes on them relatively safely.
Agreed with preferring to walk on grass than the road, but the grass here is thick, uneven, and patchy. Very easy to trip or get stuck going through a section that hasn't been mowed in months.
If they had instead just made a sidewalk, things would be much easier. Especially in the areas that have sidewalk ramps that lead to nothing but grass. Laziness.

I live close to my workplace and have been a skater most of my life, bought an electric one and I take it to work whenever the weather is nice.
It's a great cash save and the board itself is awesome fun and very fucking quick.
What about little electric scooters that you can rent with an app but we just dump them all over the fucking sidewalk when no one is using them.
I like the idea, but I have no clue how to regulate them properly. Right now it's chaos all over the world.
I want state owned electric self driving g taxis. I want to walk out of my door and get in the neighborhood self driving bus to take me (up to) 2 miles from work, where I can either walk or use a lil razer scooter to get to my job.
Alas, I work 62 miles away from home.
Have to be heavy duty e-bikes. most americans are probably too heavy for normal ones that have a weight limit of like 200lbs.
A pointlessly, stereotyping answer. The type of people willing to invest hundreds of dollars into a [e]bike are usually fit enough to ride them without undue difficulty.
