Lowered the noise by 5db in this one. Let me know if its still affecting people with misophonia- and if so, any suggestions for a different noise
I think this should be a pinned comment
I am engaging with this comment so it is pushed higher up
Please keep it exactly like that
The star trek sliding door noise you recreate by pressing your nose on one side to close one nostril, and exhaling sharply.
Not misophonia here but quite sensitive hearing; I didn't want to complain previously, but I find this level a lot less jarring

Please god we need the "state of train simulators" Rocz griping bonus episode
I'm waiting with bated breath PLEASE
I feel the need to plug ZuSi 3 here, the most German piece of software ever created. Looks utter dogshit, the menu feels like using Windows 98 Explorer, but if you want to simulate German railroads there is just nothing better. If you want to simulate anything else though, well, tough luck. And the name is literally just an abbreviation of "Zugsimulator" => Train simulator.
I will sign up to the Patreon for at least a month or two JUST for this bonus episode
You know a genre is hopeless when the indie games that start as passion projects intended to phase out the insane money-grabs that dominate it proceed to painfully morph into money-grabs
Oh god. I considered writing in with to pitch myself as a guest on an episode about these “glass toasters.” I worked on a project with these a couple years ago, and Jesus fuck do they suck. I wrote a report (pending publication) about them, and shouted out your podcast in my acknowledgments. Without getting into specifics, I wouldn’t be alive today if it weren’t for WTYP. You three got me through that project. Ultimately, I decided I rather like working with the org I do, so I didn’t reach out to talk. But I look forward to hearing a guest who knows less than I do butcher specifics that would get me fired if I talked about them.
How do you rate the level of commentary on these glass toasters?
I have one question: Where is the crumple zone?
@@thomasgiles2876 They have the famous full body crumple zones
Sounds like the whole point of autonomous vehicles is to move small amounts of people around, and to move large amounts of money around
Vehicle Agnostic: when you don't claim to know whether such a thing as vehicles exist or not.
As distinct from Pheroism/Apheroism which are whether or not you *believe* at least one vehicle exists, and Vehicle Gnosticism which is the belief that vehicles contain a spark of the divine within themselves, which has fallen from the immaterial world into their chassis (which were not made directly by the divine, but by a subordinate creator, humans. [This is the predominant religious tradition in the Cars Cinematic Universe])

These cowards changed it!
Americans reinvented Eastern European minibuses that privately supplemented underfunded municipal transport. From 20+ years ago. But this time with obscene amount of public funding. And failing at it. Bravo.
Come on, we also did spend an obscene amount of public funding too in Eastern Europe :)
@@sandorbaja4323but in the end. You have a great metro. Hungary is a shit hole in every sense of the word, the metro is Budapest is very nice though (and the oldest of Europe)
Oh we have minibuses too, they're also dogshit. We build them using the chassis and front body of our shitty oversized pickups, that's not even a joke. The ride quality is best described as like the mechanical bull rides at carnivals.

@@TrashHeapCustodianLmao, the email was just *recommendations* for a replacement sound from an accessibility and ADA specialist. Not sure from where you manifested the legal threat part.

4:45 Petitioning Devon to publish their Joker Laugh Rozmix
In case nobody else has answered regarding the Chained To A Railway trope, from TV Tropes:
"This familiar scenario first appeared in the 1867 short story "Captain Tom's Fright," although a more rudimentary form of it was seen on stage in 1863 in the play The Engineer. However, it really entered the meme pool as a result of its inclusion in the 1867 play Under the Gaslight, by Augustin Daly. (Interestingly, in Gaslight the victim is a male, not a fair maiden - and is in fact rescued by the fair maiden.)
By 1868, it reportedly could be found in five different London plays all running at the same time, and remained a theatre staple for decades. Variations of this trope was used in the films The Train Wreckers (1905) and Buster in Nodland (1912) before appearing in its most iconic form in the 1913 Keystone Komedy film Barney Oldfield's Race For A Life, where it was already Played for Laughs"
"As bizarre (and horrible) as it may seem, this trope is Truth in Television. At least six people in the United States were killed between 1874 and 1910 as a result of being tied to railroad tracks. Of course, it was never as common in real life as in fiction, no doubt because there are more efficient ways of murdering people."
For more information: www.straightdope.com/21343402/did-anyone-really-ever-get-tied-to-railroad-tracks
So the theater trope likely spawned real-life incidents?
I was going to add that that the footage everyone is thinking of is from 'The Perils of Pauline' but i though i'd better check. However, since that part of the film didn't survive, the famous shot must be from another film.
@@grmpEqweer or someone read a news article and got morbid inspiration.

I googled "who's the guy who ties women to traintracks" and it is Snidely Whiplash. Also his wikipedia page reads "Whiplash is obsessed with tying young women to railroad tracks; he has no reason to do so and realizes no gain, profit or advantage, but is simply compelled to do it."
This is my design.

I somehow found myself in a conversation at work yesterday with a chud about Palestine. He said so confidently "well I remember 9-11" to justify what was happening and while I was unpacking that the supervisor came in to ask what we were talking about.
I said Palestine, to which he responded "oh, that's like the Taliban right?"
Jesus.
I mean considering 9/11 killed 4 thousand Americans and the USA killed 300.000 civilians in the middle east in retaliation. So yeah kinda.
Truly people live in their own worlds
This reminds me of an anecdote in a video I saw yesterday: a _Libyan_ scientist wearing a _Palestinian_ Keffiyeh being told to go back to _Syria._ Those words are like woke/sjw/dei/crt ti them - all the same shit

I appreciate that Devon's sound has been reduced to conserve sonic energy for the ultimate takeover.
This thing looks adorable, like a vending machine tipped over and tried to make a break for it.
Love the guest. He is much like a train. He is singularly focused on one path, no tangents, in an efficient manner. If not for the delays of our hosts, this could have been a 90-minute episode.
In Toronto the transit union has been fighting against single operator subways for years. Recently there was a fire on a train and it showed why two people are necessary in emergencies. Only one person means that part of the train can be cut off from the operator in an emergency. A problem when evacuating passengers.
People forget that airline stewards aren't there to sell you drinks. They're there to evacuate the plane, and sell you drinks in the downtime.
Honestly, I don't think a 2-person crew is needed on subways/streetcars for safety reasons, provided Automatic train control is present. Modern fire safety standards and safe train operations are make accidents where this could help very rare.
When it comes to security during off peak night hours, that is something different.
The earliest I've been and I still missed the title typo. In another universe, there truly were 1156 episodes.
How long would that take them?
@@josejaimes-ramos1546Well they've been going for about 4 years and we're at EP 156, so that's about 39 EPs a year, at this rate we'll reach EP 1156 in about 25 and a half years
At that point the gang's probably gonna talk about how badly Super NATO is fucking up the resource wars against the Greater Asian People's Confederation or something.
@dftp inshallah it shall be so.
As a computer scientist I find the current trend of trying to make software do more and more safety critical tasks incredibly concerning. While to a computer scientist not all software is a black box, to a layman all software is a black box. Since computer scientist are not typically the ones operating these systems it means more and more very important tasks are being handled by something that the average operator has very little to no ability to properly monitor.
And then you add machine learning to these autonomous vehicles. It's so stupid.
and then everyone starts trying to jam "AI" into it, which is not only bound to fuck up in numerous ways, but also is a black box to everyone, by definition. what could possibly go wrong?
@twynb yeah what I said because "AI" is just machine learning rebranded. This is the stupidest bubble in history.
As someone who happens to be blind, I’m always grateful for Justin‘s consideration of access issues and not just the economics or productivity/efficiency of these things. At the end of the day, they need to be made for a wide range of human activities. Plenty of disabled people can get around, they just don’t live in a built environment that allows it to happen easily. Same as people who want to be able to walk or cycle, and they don’t live in a built environment that allows them access.
"Faith-based transportation system" with all the other shit happening, we're really speedrunning to the 40k timeline.

I was in college during the OJ trial. We brought a TV into the lobby of the engineering building to watch the verdict. It was a very surreal moment, especially since I went to an HBCU.
The first JDAM bus looks like the spiritual successor to the Fiat Multipla
I've ridden those automated rubber tired trains in Taipei. They were my favorite as a child, as you can sit at the very front and pretend to be the driver.
The view of the city you get and the silence and ride quality are great! They are above-ground only and don't connect with the rest of the metro system, and are much slower (although luckily the stations are extremely close together).

So I'm looking at this box-thingy and thinking it might be ok for urban centers?
...But trolleys, run off an overhead catenary, have been doing the same thing.
This for over 100 years, with no batteries.

This podcast teaches socially responsible belligerence and that is invaluable
Love that cities will bend over backwards to not build trains but sink (probably) way more money on this nonsense. Like they acknowledge that they need public transportation but refuse to actually fix the problem (with trains lol)
I don't know how many times I have to explain this to Easterners, but in a city like mine where the weather is horrible, we don't want to walk more than three blocks to a bus. If we use trains instead, we'd have to have rail lines every 6 blocks. My city is 600 square miles in area. Train tracks are expensive to build with 21st century labor. So my city has about three rail lines after 20 years of building. Taking a bus to a train means an hour long trip to anywhere.
@@warheadsnation trolleybuses are a cheaper alternative, but then you have to buy tires.
@@warheadsnation bruv, I live in london, needless to say it rains quite often here. you're fine to walk to the train station when it's pissing down. most the time you need to commute to and from work 5 days a week, and do not have a choice to wait until the rain is gone. urban light rail systems are so much more efficient than any other mass transit in large cities. you'll do a lot better walking a few streets in the rain than 2 hours in traffic
JTA is a shitshow. They “accidentally” demoed the building that had all of the historical photos, blueprints, books, and plans showing how efficient a street car system would’ve been.
That’s a whole other story. They had a full dump truck full of maps, charts, financial records, uniforms, coin changers etc… They hauled it all to the north side landfill in 1980 because “it became a threat to the skyway.”
Here’s a bit of history about our former streetcar system
They left the rails in much of town as Motor Transit Co (GM, Standard Oil, Phillips 66, Firestone, Greyhound) had zero interest in them. Some were dug out during WWII scrap drives. I remember a maze of switch work @ Dellwood and Rosselle (under the freeway today)
Aberdeen’s rails were pulled leaving the telling brick patches. From Willow Branch south to Ortega and the Army Base it was mostly private right of way except in Fairfax and Grand Av.
Track in the street had little value as it was all streetcar girder rail and the market for that was dead by 1937 until the 1990’s. Private RofW mostly used light weight 60-80 pound common T rail. The system closed in mid December 1936.
Wow! Can't wait to go back and listen to the 1,000 episodes that I somehow missed in the last two weeks. :3
Two weeks?
I fear you’ve been in a coma for over a century now, the current year is 2124.
I watched The Naked Gun 2 1/2 yesterday and when OJ appeared on the screen I stood up and clapped.
the *"I ALREADY DO IT THROUGH AN APP"* moment was the angriest I've ever heard Justin before
The rant about agile vs waterfall felt great. Yay Liam
@1:57:50 The way November straight-up bursted out laughing is the episode's highlight.
Have we ever gotten a good joker laugh out of Liam? We've got Roz and Nova...
8:52 the glove was leather and caked with dried blood, and he was wearing a latex glove during the courtroom demonstration. A new pair in the same size fit him fine. But yeah, those pigs were racist AF. The system didn't fail, the cops did.
That and the Rodney King riots were recent so the racist pigs came off even worse. OJ was essentially used by the jury to send a message to the police, not that they learned anything.
An autonomous pod describing autonomous pods. The future is Chrome and you need more RAM.
Using bus pods as "Urban Circulators" is just silly. Anyone thinking stuff like these can be used where normal subway, tram or bus lines are used, don't know a thing about cities. I do think they can be used in certain suburban/rural settings. Mainly as a feeder on side roads to normal bus stops etc. But the automation technology isn't here yet for even that use.
I live in Trondheim, Norway and vehicles like this has been used in both Trondheim and Oslo. ("self-driving" but with a driver who can take over in emergencies. At a speed faster than walking but slower than my bicycle.) I never did ride it, but I did overtake it with my bicycle. The trials ended in 2019/2020.
In Trondheim they were used from a car park and minor train station to the main hospital, a distance of 1-2km, crossing a bus only bridge (well bus/taxi/bicycles/pedestrians). Technically in traffic but pretty close to a controlled environment. Most adults will easily just walk (it's a very nice walk), but there some patients etc can be mobile enough to take the train (or drive?), but for who this walk is a little long. This route is now instead served as part of a much longer, major bus route. (Plus a lot of regional bus routes now has some departures extended to the hospital.)
In Oslo it was similarly used to cover a couple of peninsulas with low density suburban housing, to bring people the nearest high frequency bus stop. There they had major problems with parked cars etc in this setting. And also because because there's a very popular beaches on the tip of the peninsulas, the tiny vehicles would be overfilled on nice days in the summer. As not quite a coincidence the exact same summer weekends near the beach is also peak illegal parking. The pods don't cope well with uneven demand, and the experiment was discontinued.
I believe in both cities the trials concluded that new trials should be attempted when the technology is more mature. (At the positive side, the trials were budgeted as short term trials with leased vehicles and didn't use/(waste?) more money than they were supposed to.)
I remember these buses in Oslo. They didn't impress me
1156?? damn i gotta catch up
The incredible irony that Jacksonville got Simpsons Monorail episoded, to get rid of their monorail. This will never not be hilarious.
I'm convinced that at some point, someone is gonna come up with "autonomous" vehicles that are just remote controlled by some poor schmucks overseas like that "checkout-less" whole foods thing or whatever, and that's the closest we're ever gonna get to functional driverless vehicles
I'm really grateful that for as dumb as Portland, Oregon is in a lot of ways it was smart enough not to get sucked into autonomous light rail. We've got surface level trains (except that one station under the West Hills that's our only subway station and also the deepest subway station in the US lol) so each one has an engineer. It's a lot cheaper to put down rail on a street than build those raised tracks so more miles could be built for the same amount of money. And if AI ever gets to the point where a street-level train can run on autopilot then the trains can be retrofitted, and not a moment before hand (probably won't happen but whatever). We've had almost 40 years of development of the MAX, 60 miles of track, 97 stations, 1.26 million weekly riders (down from 1.83M in early 2020 😬) and that's just the trains. The bus system is even more extensive.
Anyway, invest in public transit, use technologies that are proven, ignore dummies who try to lure you into unproven tech.
Just curious: was that deep subway station designed to double as a nuclear shelter?
@@grmpEqweerno, it was needed to connect the west side of the Portland metro area with the central and east side. The "West Hills" are more like a small, steep mountain range and the choice was to make a track with a ton of switchbacks while bulldozing a massive park and a bunch of rich people's homes, or just tunnel under it. The station has a 600ft elevator that emerges in the parking lot of Oregon Zoo with shuttle service to the Rose and Japanese Gardens and Forest Park. It's honestly a good place for a station, it's just very funny to me that our only subway station is that deep
The rail system in Portland makes me so happy, I miss it
When I was a transit worker in the Sun Belt, Portland was thought of as a dream place to work if you could get it. Then, I got it. It's uh, well, a land of contrasts, to be sure, but I've spent more than ten years working on the light rail and streetcar systems, and the system is, despite its challenges, not Jacksonville. The majority of our challenges here have to do with the Feds swinging violently back and forth on funding and regulation. Dealing with them, and the state's equivalent, has definitely pushed me farther into the Cascadian separatist camp.
thank you for lowering the sound by 5db its a perfect sound now. nobody else will ever complain. if they do they'll have to get through me first
I had the opportunity to move to Jacksonville a few years ago. I am so glad I avoided that fate, I probably would have died immediately.
Devon, please release the Jokermode RBG laugh UA-cam Poop as a separate video. Pleeeease.
A way to only have 4 minutes for Saw between trains could be to drop a suspended structure on to the tracks. That would give all the setup time needed. A passing train at zero seconds pops a release and dumps it, essentially "start the clock", setting the stage and waking them up from being roofied, all in one.
They were testing at the University of Rennes when I was there circa 2018, on a 800m or so back and forth route.
There was a gay payed to stay in it all day and take control with an XBox controller, which happened about once every round trip. It'd stop everytime a car got to close or was parked wrong.
You could also distance them by walking.
