Why aren't we doing this
“We expected that they fly around each other and they never have physical contact,” Hristov said. “We have found, shocking to us, that bats crash into each other quite often. It’s a messy situation, but generally it’s very safe and it works very well.”
This implies a ideal gas law for bats, an ideal bat law, bat liquid, bat solid, and bat plasma
Cricket might know a thing or two about the bat law
In the US, only 33 cars for 50 people is optimistic
Vampire propaganda.
I have a better question - why isn’t this posted in the !bats@lemmy.world community? We would love it here. Stealing and crossposting now.
I simply wasn’t aware of the community, I’ll remember it next time
It’s definitely a much smaller community than lemmyshitpost, but we love anything bat-related!
I don’t recall this version of Batman but I’m all for it.
What we do in the shadows tv show
So a bus is more space efficient than pedestrians?
Often times, yes. Because sitting/standing requires less space than walking and that makes up for the extra space of the bus.
I guess walking is like humans being in a gas state, and riding a bus is humans arranging themselves into a solid. But idk what liquid humans would be lol
They can hook up little butt fans to the seats so when you fart they can whisk away your flatus rather than making everyone fester in your stank. I mean they don’t but they can. Like how they do for astronaut ass
If we ever run out of room for humans to walk around I think we’re cooked busses or not.
The 50 pedestrians vs 50 people in a bus is messing with my brain.
Yeah they must really be crammed in there.
Double decker?
A single-story coach has seats for about 50 people. Low-floor city busses a little less, but you can get 50 in there with people standing
50 pedestrians the way they prefer it. A bus with 50 people on board, where everyone is in each other’s personal space.
that’s gonna be one hell of a smush in the cage match
The pedestrians are just standing further apart. In the hustle and bustle of a shopping street they might be closer together.
Yeah, fuck busses. Bats are way more eco friendly.
you can make them eat other bugs too it’s so eco friendly
The nice part about riding the bus is you can kick back, relax, and smoke a ton of weed while you travel.
Just like the driver!
It’s more efficient to stack pedestrians on top of each other.
Wasn’t there a horror movie about that?
This post brought to you by Corona gang
By beer?
Where do I invest?
Squeak at the sky after dark and some guys will show up.
Imagine the amount of mosquitoes you could fit.
Imagine the amount of mosquitos you could fit if they were inside in the bats’ bellies! They eat like their weight in bugs every night.
Yeah but you have that wasted space where all the bats flesh and bones are, that could be used to fill with more mosquitoes.
What if, to save space over cars but keep the personal comfort, everyone had their own hiding place with entrance hidden by brick and rubble?
People could lay vertically in there hiding pods stacked on each other and we could put wheels on the bottom like those big baking sheet racks in commercial kitchens. But then we would need someone to push them…cue the bats.
You will certainly not regret having 150,000 bats.
Because its awful to go on public transport. Are you kidding me? You dont understand why people like cars?
For the same reason people like their own apartment or their own house. Other people are awful to be around.
What if…WHAT IF public transport is funded and improved upon?
It will have other people.
Things are bad? Just make things good. Taht
Driving requires you to be constantly alert, and if you screw up or don’t react fast enough, you can straight up die because of it. On a bus, you can be on your phone, read a book, take a nap, whatever. Driving is a much worse experience and even if public transit takes more time, that’s time that can be used doing things. That’s before factoring the cost (the car itself, gas, insurance), the environmental impact, parking, etc.
Sounds like you like the bus, thats great. Good for you.
smelling bad
look who thinks their shit don’t smell
And now the traffic report:
“I’m over Ventura Blvd., and all the vampires walking in the Valley are heading west.”
Those humans are quite large.
Much larger than bats.
really? only 150 bats? are these fruit bats or fat american vampire bats. i would like to speak to mathematic’s manager please.
That’s 150 thousand bats
are these american thousands or are these weird european thousands with extra zeroes like their weird millions and billions tho. they have been getting sneaky beaky with their numbers, the way they count things all discrete like.
How do I turn into a swarm of bats?
Love this
Do they all want to go to the same place?
And, cannot the bats fly? Surely there could be far many more.
Speaking of flying, lets just have spaceships for everybody.
Does it need to be a full-size bat, or can it be one of those mini replica bats? I bet you could fit at least twice as many of those bats.
Also, replace pedestrians with buses
Or… get way closer together… way… way closer… 😏
The bats go dormant during winter. We got about 6 months of that.
And after that - all bats are off.
Replace people with bats!
How many wolves to bats?

Why aren’t we doing this? I personally haven’t found the option to turn into a bat yet

Literally the only issue with the plan

Ethicists was too preoccupied with whether or not they should, they didn’t stop and think if they could.
