>When you can just transport from place to place
See, you are asking the wrong questions. We are quickly approaching a world where people have no need to be transported in the first place. Communication and delivery technology let people stay at home indefinitely, as many have already experienced during Covid, and there is a good chance that it will be encouraged in the future because moving meatbags around is not particularly cost-efficient.
As for the main question... Abandoned in place and gradually scrapped and recycled, or repurposed for transportation of goods.

"Transport" is a euphemism for "kill and 3d print a clone somewhere else"

travel as a concept becomes meaningless
space and distance are compressed just like information and time are on the internet today
the pace of everyday life increases even further

reducing travel time is never a bad thing. The goal is always the destination, traveling is a means to an end

always a bad thing*

>>2066570
traveling distracts me from my lack of goals. i walk until i feel like taking a train and then walk and repeat. then go home once cold, sleep. haven't encountered the elusive nippori toneri liner, maybe tomorrow. but spectating the marathon could be fun too

According to Americans, niggers would infest teleportation if it ever becomes cheap, and teleportation would be untenable anyway because the entire universe is too big, so it would never work. New Jersey proves that we just need one more lane, not instantaneous translocation.

Can you really "infest" what is essentially a form of non-transport though? At best they'd all just teleport themselves to KFC leaving the rest of us free to teleport ourselves to wherever else we want to go.

>>2066740
Yes, america is simply too big for it to ever work, with 50% of the population accounting for 90% of the crime. It's the same reason we can't have high speed internet access in Ohio.

>>2066245
This. Humans will never have the ability to transport a body somewhere with an energy beam because you essentially need the power of a star to create carbon and other molecules out of nothing. At best you're going to get a reproduction made of you from a 3d printer or some kind of meat agar where your consciousness gets digitally transferred across a distance into the reproduction.

It probably means that rich people will have several copies of themselves, one in each location they regularly visit. The rest of us will have to hoof it.

lel source... wouldn't teleportation be a luxury they couldn't afford

I can see the articles now:
>Huffpo: the unbearable whiteness of instantaneous transportation
>NYT: mayor announces free teleporter program for underrepresented communities
>BBC: broken doors down 80% in home invasions

mfw it would have been cheaper to just hand over the wallet

I will never step inside a transporter

Subhumans will just smash all teleporters like they currently do to EV charging stations or self-driving delivery vans.

love how one thought experiment (itself based on a fucking short story from a rag magazine) is now the canon only way to "teleport" among redditors
