Articles about deextinction often reference the Pyrenean Ibex that died 7 minutes after birth. Why has nobody tried that one again?

No exactly like they said. In the US eggs are (chlorine?) washed, removing the protective natural coating and making them more shelf unstable.

Delhi Metro

Unless th US also has a Delhi…

But a metro? One can dream.

Yeah, like a digital “ideal line” that the cars can follow.

Maybe even a physical guiding line.

We could even connect all the cars via WLAN (WiFi) to exchange info when they are braking and accelerating. That would increase efficiency.

Maybe we could even connect them physically to have a stronger engine pulling more cars more efficiently.

If we already have an ideal guiding line, we might actually save some asphalt and make the roads more optimised. Use different materials so the tyre particles don’t pollute as much.

Ah, let’s just build a train.

The secret is to never want to remove it.

It’s easy to care for it, you can totally neglect it and it still thrives. When you think it’s grown to much, you cut it down, it springs right back. You can rip it out, as long as there’s a 5cm piece of root somewhere in the ground, it will be there again next year.

I’ve ripped out many a bushel and gifted to friends and still have my own mint. I like it.
