I do not use Twitter.com not the Twitter app. I use third-party clients exclusively.

The solution to “too much RSS” is the same for Twitter. Unsubscribe/unfollow. Twitter does not require you to follow someone to interact with them. I follow relatively few people directly yet I have themed lists following other accounts. If I want local news I check my local list.

Twitter works quite well in this regard vs. Facebook where you need to be “friends” to interact.

I've switched almost exclusively to drinking Mount Hagen organic Fair Trade instant coffee. It's very, very good at a decent price.

Hyperloop utilizes an evacuated vacuum chamber. It's different than a pneumatic tube concept.

The huge benefit will be when this is used in conjunction with the self parking system. You drive up to the front of your house, get out, and the car drives itself into the garage and plugs itself in.
