@Ned_Donovan Not only did they have a ton of money, but there was also almost no regulation. People could just do things and get away with them. Also labour was dirt cheap. You could just use orphans and the like and it was fine, who cares if a few kids die in the mine, there's 1.6K views · 31 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

@Ned_Donovan Victorian Britain's culture of "we had an idea and toyed around with it because we can" was largely enabled by wealthy elites willing to fund insane ideas. Modern elites are so greedy and tasteless that they aren't willing to spend a dime on anything cool. 3.6K views · 320 likes · 2 reposts · 3 replies Open on X →

5/x Before risking a ship, he built the room. In his garden at Denmark Hill, he erected a full-size test saloon on trunnions, driven by steam to imitate the worst of the Channel, and inside it the platform stayed level. https://t.co/69s7t3tjxV 20.3K views · 226 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

1/x The strangest job at sea in 1875: a man in a gilded salon, hand on a valve, eyes on a spirit level, keeping a 180 ton room level while the ship rolls around it.

@Ned_Donovan Every surveillance technology makes catching criminals easier. Every surveillance technology limits privacy, is regularly abused and can be used to build a police state.

Flock has joined data centers, Covid vaccines, 5G towers, pasteurized milk and fracking in the pantheon of American moral panics. Its opponents believe it's abused by police with impunity, that it can track individuals as well as cars, and that it violates constitutional 126.8K views · 234 likes · 40 reposts · 110 replies Open on X →
