So, 55 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: I mean he's thought this through at a deep level. 56 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, he said, how is society going to cope with it? 57 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 2: The hatred quote, we are destroying the middle classes and 58 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 2: it will affect us. It's unfair. So that's what keeps 59 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 2: me awake. The unfairness. 60 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: No, no, no, the fact that it could eventually, like me, 61 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: generations from now, have a negative impact on people who 62 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: are related to me. Yeah, or at least the security 63 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: guards I pay to protect me. I just would feel 64 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: sorry for them if they got hurt trying. 65 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 2: As then that would be unfair. And that would be 66 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 2: your job. 67 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: So here is one billionaire person who still is afraid 68 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: for their life, whereas a lot of them seem like 69 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: they're just like, for my birthday, I've decided to break 70 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: the land speed record on a Harley right, all right, 71 00:03:56,120 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: So there is a bicycle designed. It's kind of somewhere 72 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: between a bit and this person like he actually designed it. 73 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: It's a real less bicycle, and it's being covered as 74 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: it's breaking all the rules and turning heads. 75 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 2: And that is because it is stupid, right, Like, it's 76 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: because you know, bicycles are wonderful items because they are 77 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 2: so you know, efficient in transferring our energy. Yes, and 78 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 2: this thing has like the wheels the size of little 79 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: lego pieces and the way the chain set up. You're like, 80 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 2: I don't know if this is actually going to return 81 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 2: your investment of energetic output in terms of you being 82 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 2: able to move forward. Yeah. 83 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 1: You look at the design and you're like, oh, okay, 84 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: so something I must be missing something, And then you 85 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: see it in action and you realize you are missing nothing. 86 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: It is exactly as inefficient as you expect it to be. 87 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: There is a reason that it appears to be Like 88 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: what when he is displaying how it works. He is 89 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: operating on what appears to be the flattest piece of 90 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 1: pavement ever constructed. Like it's just it's like fake grass 91 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: and the flattest piece of pavement ever. And yeah, the 92 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: way it works is so it's like two tank treads 93 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: that are like meeting the ground at weird oblique angles, 94 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 1: and you just like are cranking on a treadmill. You're 95 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 1: basically like powering a treadmill. 96 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 2: It's I mean, I get it. I think because this 97 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 2: person designs it looks like always designing weird wonky bike designs, 98 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 2: like square wheels and shit. So I get where you're 99 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 2: coming from. But yeah, it's just like one of those things. 100 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 2: When you look at it, you're like, come on, buddy, 101 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 2: I get I mean, I know what you're doing. 102 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: Here in a universe where people are like deathly allergic 103 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: to circles, I feel like this makes sense. But here 104 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: I don't see the need for it other than that 105 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,919 Speaker 1: it's turning heads. It feels like it would be the 106 00:05:55,960 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: purview of people who go to the beach with like 107 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: a parrot or a snake around their neck. 108 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 2: Oh, like the most histrionic person in your town. 109 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't have anything to say, but they would 110 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: like you to look at them and engage. 111 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: With them and be like, Hey, what's that? Oh, what's this?
