I would be excited about a well planned walkable good public transportation city during a housing crisis, but 100% of tech bro utopia ideas have been disappointments.

Wait…I thought Night City was fiction?
More like Cow City. Davis isn’t exactly vacation wonderland. Their claim to fame is pepper spraying the college kids in the face while sitting down.
I was thinking of Rapture.
It's not fiction, just anticipation.
I'm sure housing will be super affordable for all those service industry workers that will be needed to keep this place running. /s

Lol jokes on them. My Norwegian visa is already being processed so good luck america. Lol
What's the visa process like for Norway? Do you have to have a job sponsoring your visa, or can you just prove work from home income?
How can a regular joe like myself get a Norwegian visa????
Lykke til! :)
Takk :)
Let me out!!!!
I don't have european family, so I would have to get accepted on my own merit. I think maybe I can learn spanish and get into spain by working in cybersecurity or some tech thing ig 😮💨
If you cook and clean I can marry you to help you get French citizenship 👌
Im too puppypilled to cook and clean
Do you at least give back scratches?
Hehehe, sure!
Yes another way is to move to countries like Italy, Spain etc and once you become EU citizen then move to norway
If/when they build this, the local politics are going to be so unbelievably insufferable.
Holy shit Elon will run for mayor
A HOA for rich people. How exciting.
Sounds like a sitcom in the making. I can just imagine Buffet bitching at Bezos over the height of his grass
So...an HOA?
In 2017, Flannery Associates pitched an idea to turn the Solano County land into a walkable city powered by clean energy and housing tens of thousands of residents
Fuck it. I'm excited. We have so much demand for housing in this country, I don't even care if its a dystopian cyberpunk town anymore. Just give me a healthy place to live.

Funny that before the identities of the buyers was known, everyone's go to theory was that it was a nefarious CCP plot.
Solano county is north east of SF, not north west like the article claims.
Wouldn't northwest be the Pacific ocean?
Waterworld confirmed
Why barricade in Monaco when you can bring Monaco to barricade here?
We should let them build this and then build high speed rail lines directly through the richest, whitest neighborhood to make up for all the 20th century’s city planning decisions.
And before you wanna have principled or reasonable opposition to my plan, think about how funny it would be to eminent domain the investors’ luxury condo building(s). America needs a good laugh sometimes too.
California City 2.0 baby!
OMG, Now I'm sure it will become Night City
