El proyecto The Line, la megaciudad futurista de Arabia Saudita sin carreteras ni edificios, se convierte en un desastre financiero tras su paralización.
Este ambicioso plan de Neom cuestiona la viabilidad de proyectos urbanos de escala gigante y afecta la estrategia económica del país (#Vision2030). #TheLine #Neom #CrisisFinanciera #CiudadesDelFuturo

Realitätscheck für futuristische Wüstenmetropole: #Neom und #TheLine kämpfen mit massiven Verzögerungen und Kostenexplosion. Experten zweifeln an Realisierbarkeit der ambitionierten Pläne. https://winfuture.de/news,149433.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia
Oh no, you only recorded a profit of three-quarters of a billion dollars in six months?
Fucking diddums.
Die saudische Sci-Fi-#Wüstenstadt #TheLine erhält einen völlig verspiegelten Hafen. Bilder zeigen die irrwitzigen Dimensionen des Vorhabens. Die #HiddenMarina soll zudem 200.000 Einwohner beherbergen. https://winfuture.de/news,148927.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia
The Line es un ambicioso proyecto en el desierto de Arabia Saudí en forma de enorme línea futurista. Este rascacielos de 170 kilómetros es una de las atracciones principales de Neom, una ciudad enfocada a los turistas. Se supone que será una ciudad que prescinda del tráfico, donde sus habitantes puedan caminar en línea recta hacia cualquier parte y hagan uso de trenes de alta velocidad en caso de necesitar desplazarse. La idea del príncipe Salman era depender menos del petróleo, pero el diseño crece a un ritmo lento; de los 170 kilómetros planeados se esperan apenas un par de kilómetros de aquí al final de la década. El proyecto no prospera debido a sus problemas de sostenibilidad, además las críticas por el desalojo de tribus del desierto que vivían en la zona. Tampoco se continuará con la construcción de la planta desalinizadora que iba a radicar en Oxagon, una ciudad flotante paralela a The Line. El millón y medio de personas que se estimaba albergaría la ciudad en 2030 se ha visto reducido a 300 mil. Una idea fastuosa que no cuajó en la realidad y que poco a poco se está hundiendo.

The Line in Saudi Arabia is such a cool idea... and the western arrogance that i read so often is quite worrying for me. I guess it is yet again a future leading project that is laughed on by ppl that laugh at anything that is exploring the future... but let me explain:
The Line is a extendable project that could house half of Saudi Arabia's citizens while providing an almost complete solution to the urban problems and those that will arise with climate change.
Saudi Arabia will become inhospitable quite fast due to climate change, they already reach temps of 52.0 °C.
As a result The Line is planed to be build in such a way that one does not need to leave the building. This thing is self contained as much as feasible possible.
There are no cars, only a central moving system. And in the bigger neom project 100% of the water will be recycled.
Saudi Arabia does not care if it is feasible to build it, because it is a experimental test balloon how to build a climate doomsday bunker that will inevitable be needed there since the current car centric urban environment is not maintainable and many skyscrapers are hard to connect in a climate change resistant way that is efficient. I guess something like the Line is just so much cheaper to build since you just have to build the same modules over and over again and put them in a straight line.
But hay go ahead and laugh about the "crazy and decadent" project that has "no reason to exist"...
Also there seem to die a lot of humans for this and Saudi Arabia just does not seem care about it... [0] (This article speaks of "laborers"... they are not... they are slaves [1])

Ok, I thought #LucidMotors is funded by #Dubai, which would be questionable, at best, but I was wrong.
They're funded by #MohammedBinSalman (#MBS) as part of his 2030 campaign for #SaudiArabia, like #NEOM's #TheLine project, and many others.
So, even if I had the money, I couldn't buy the two #LucidAir models I lust after, the Grand Touring for every day use and road trips, and the Sapphire for going out on the town.
Poor ass #consumerist problems

Neom: Confront Saudi leaders over futuristic city death, human rights groups urge UK
A UK delegation to Saudi Arabia has been urged by human rights groups to pressure Saudi leaders over a BBC report that revealed #Saudi forces were told to kill for a futuristic city.
#Neom's #TheLine, the desert city, is one of the projects promoted at a UK-hosted event in Riyadh.
It will come as no surprise that NEOM which felt more like a dystopian beginning of a B movie than the building of a new city is exactly that except it is no film and the people cleared from the land are real people and really killed if they resist.

Vor kurzem hieß es, dass das Mega-Projekt #TheLine zwar entstehen wird, aber in einer stark verkürzten "Light"-Variante. Das wurde nun entschieden dementiert. https://winfuture.de/news,142566.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia
Die saudi-arabische Stadt #TheLine ist und bleibt ein Megaprojekt, das umgesetzt wird, allerdings schalten die Verantwortlichen nun einen oder zwei Gänge zurück. https://winfuture.de/news,142175.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia
@lobbycontrol #Funfact: der #VoloCity wird auch beim Fiebertraum der #Saudis prominent gezeigt...
I don't understand how people can so eagerly work for the #murderer and brutal #dictator, #MohammedBinSalman.
The basic idea of #NEOM's #TheLine #VerticalCity project seems radical in the best way, and overly optimistic.
The external mirrored walls may be the first point of failure. Unless there's sufficient openings under the project, blocking the desert may be the second.
