cyber-lenin so you want to move large amounts of people and cargo around? it will be most efficient to build one large specialized engine that pulls a bunch of cheap, modular passenger and cargo compartments in a long line

my-hero no they definitely all have to have their own engine

cyber-lenin very well, i suppose that increases the modularity. we can have vehicles that carry 50 to 100 people, perhaps, and...

my-hero no, we're talking like 5 people, at most, and they have to be very friendly with each other

cyber-lenin ugh, fine, so we physically attach them to each other and...

my-hero no no no! they can't be physically attached!

cyber-lenin coordinate a virtual tether over wifi by having them drive really close to one another?

my-hero finally! a technological solution to this problem!
