Hey! This god damned steam engine keeps using up all our fucking water and coal. This shit is so inefficient and overhyped
It's like how steam powered cars were developed, but by the time they engineered out all the disadvantages like start to bring the car up to temperature half an hour before driving, the gasoline powered car was there leaving the steam car is the dust.
Not to mention the experiments with steam powered aircraft.
yeah might as well wait for LLLLLMs
Marketing will give it a better name.
Did you know that Boeing first named their passenger jet the 700 series. but marketing found that 707 sounded much better. That's why we now have the famous 747 and so on.
surprised it didn't end up in a razor blade race where you fly the Airbus 900000000000009
Remember that time the dot com bubble burst and that was the end of internet commerce? Crazy people thought they could buy and sell goods and services over the internet. Glad we live in saner times now.
