Ep. 145: Steamships & Ocean Portals in 1899
from Fascinating Gadgets, Gizmos, and Gear Based Technologies
I know we have done several shows lately on the technology of the Victorian Era, but the TV show 1899 is completely unique. There are weird portals, black pyramids, and retro computers controlling steamships. Where to begin? Well this week The Brain Trust explains it all. Could you retrofit a steam ship with 1970’s computers? Is it possible to completely freeze time and still walk around? Is triangle shaped Morse Code better than the traditional dot system? The key to all of it may lie in Dennin’s newly revealed superpower: The ability to solve ANY slide puzzle! Don’t worry, once you listen, it will all make sense.
