Are you familiar with the landscape of California? Most of it won't be covered in grass - at least not the type of 'backyard grass' you may be thinking of, but likely some tall, dry, dead-looking, wild grass that is native to the area and is also shown in the original photo renders. (eg. www.yardi.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Apple-2-2.jpg ).
I don't know what that type of grass is called but it can withstand droughts and doesn't need to be watered. It's also kind of 'patchy' how it tends to grow in nature. I'm sure it will still look beautiful - don't get me wrong.
Except for your idiotic state government! Gov. Brown approved the very expensive high speed rail that will hit taxpayers and likely be outdated by the time its built. Why not invest in future technologies like Hyperloop that could revolutionize travel and lower cost. California also seems to think that its a good idea to house ILLEGAL immigrants and grant them drivers licences. Not to mention the states out of control budget. I like California but their politics could use some major adjustments.
Railway is always a good thing. You all in USA have a poor railway system (compared to Europe), so you absolutely need to modernize it. It's ok to pay taxes to fund public services that improves everyone's life.
Luca Lindholm - The US is larger and spread out than Europe so it's much more difficult to have an updated rail system. I don't think rail is the best way to go because I think newer technologies will be cheaper and faster than rail.
When I look at this video I remember a magazine with one page devoted to quotes from business & tech "leaders" and "experts" in which they said such things as, "Apple is on its last legs and they should merge with a viable company such at AT&t" and "Apple is a software company & they should sell off their manufacturing division" and "Apple is doomed; they should salvage whatever they can", et cetera. If I can find that magazine again I'm going to frame that page. And, of course, I should have sold my business equipment and bought MORE Apple shares.......
GamingW/O Friends it probably is. I don't use Samsung but if I did, it wouldn't bother me. I don't get offended over things that don't matter. Sheeple will be as they are.
That barn was the place that Steve Jobs was born in. His mother and father had to stay in the barn because there were not rooms at the Inn. That happened on Christmas Eve.
Maybe those cube/box-like metal pole structures at the base of some of the entrances are going to have tarps over them? Some sort of right-outside-the-door station or relaxation area? Really can't for the life of me figure out what those are going to be...
So how long would it take to walk around the entire building. Hopefully not to many people need to get across very quickly. That's typically why buildings are built upward, so a quick elevator ride can get you to any floor pretty quickly. This building looks incredible but is it practical? Is there some sort of shuttle/horizontal elevator?
That's exactly what I've been wondering. For able bodied people a pool of bicycles would be useful and conductive to their fitness, but there would also need to be some power chairs for the disabled. There would also need to be some powered carts for package delivery, building and equipment maintenance and grounds crew.
I am still thinking it was a huge step back when you decided to not add the comments of what is currently shown in the video. I am struggling if I should give thumbs up or not... but you get one. But please think about to bring the titles / comments / descriptions back to your great videos.
Marsorry Ickua that was my thought as well. How long would it take to walk to the other side? It just doesn't seem practical. There would have to be some sort of tram or something. This design just doesn't seem practical
Dear Matthew. Have you asked RU-vid why they are so insane of not letting Mac users who use Safari of not viewing the 4K videos? There is no need for me to use any other browser.
perhaps it is because it resembles a UFO, and have to remember that the Noah'sArk was unveiled 2016, Kentucky, so you have the two Biblical landmarks, though neither are true Biblical, there were No Apples 2,000 years ago, and the Ark was a perverted word from Nu Ankh, the new energy being Artificial Intelligent Technology,
I hope NOT! The California state government doesn't know how to use it's money wisely. Plus they are so stupid to put windows type computers there which is insane. Those type of computers are CRAP!!! Then one wants to know why the state is so poor. Give me a break. By-the-way, don't EVER get me riled up on CalTrans, their road webcams are so outdated.
Apple is out of touch with the environment. Do you believe the people will like being inside all the time with such nice weather in this area? Also, no one will feel the wind anymore in the center of that circle.
Travis Heinze exactly. You would think that the design would have been more open and built into the natural landscape. This circle would feel more like a futuristic prison. Just being completely surrounded by building 360 degrees.
It's really starting to resemble the artists' concepts. Funny how all of the Microsoft and Android hangers-on like to come here and insult Apple and all those who support them, but I guess if all I had to look forward to was the next big virus attack I'd be bitter also.
ㄷ얌ㄱ야 듀문 hipsters don't buy Apple. It's to trendy for them. They are to busy falling into the trend of pretending to be something they're not. They all use the old Nokia phones from 20 years ago
Man, apple must be paying youtube a lot of money to get any positive apple video trending. I hope they go bankrupt and people working at apple get better jobs as well.
Vytas form over function, those modern buildings you talk about are very expensive and don't provide much benefit besides aesthetics. this is a mix of both.
How long before we hear about Apple selling this just to try to stay afloat. I'm a huge apple fan but come on they are so lazy since jobs died and really before that.
look how filthy those solar panels are - unless this has power storage (unlikely) the total green wash useless solar panels will create a ton more maintenance also. Did apple forget to ask what happens at night or when it's cloudy - or are they ok with the power going off or not changing base load requirements at all? How much energy did these solar panels take to make, and how much will they take to clean in their lifetime? These solar panels are destroying the environment, not saving it greenwash is everywhere.
Nick Donnelly There will be some sort of power system which will be charged from the Solar Panels and work for the night. Actually Solar Panels don't need Sun to Produce Energy they can do it just as easy on a cloudy day. I'd do a bit of research first.
