transactions cost complications.... liquidity issues ....... still lots of problems to work out
just gonna have to start printing pieces of the ledger and storing them in warehouses
and then tie them to some sort of categorization system
interesting... Charles dickens wrote a peice in 1837 which was a bit like westworld
with printed cards
a theme park where people fight automatons
LOL sick. i would so do that
gotta bring back card catalogs
I grew up in a small town where there is a big museum... which holds an automaton from 1772 ...and as a kid I really did not appreciate how amazing it was
sounds hella fun xD
whoa.... i would like to see that!
this was made in 1772 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0LMe5pi7ME
I want to open a theme park of old and semi-old computers that can do things if you know how to operate them fully. π
they muted it, but it has sound too
all pure silver leaves
hah wow.... seems like itd take some engineering genius to pull that off back then.... like passive mechanics or something... maybe some wind up crank?
yeah its wound up
thats classy too lol
pretty cool π
for their time
all mechanical
Mark Twain saw it on tour and wrote about it
MT was way before his time
had like one of the first telephones
and even then he wrote about it in 1867 - so even to him he must have been like, wow they made this back in 1772 π
Has anyone heard of the turk?
βI watched the Silver Swan, which had a living grace about his movement and a living intelligence in his eyes, watched him swimming about as comfortably and unconcernedly as if he had been born in a morass instead of a jewellerβs shop.β
It's the most interesting mechanical marvel I've heard of
just think, in 4 years after that was made the world changed forever
FREEDOM
yeah its older than the US
which we also invented ;P
you might have invented it
Automatons are really impressive. I like the one of the writing boy which can be programmed to write whatever you want it to
but we perfected it
fair enough π

Also the one of the Japanese archer because it actually shoots a miniature arrow which is hilarious to me
