It hasnt, its just gotten better at things we hate

Wait until you hear about toilets. Same design for 100+ years
Joseph Flores
>1858
>700' long craft launches
>8000hp on the shaft driven by up to 4 steam engines, with two reserve for the wheels
>variable pitch prop 100 years before it was officially invented
>seamless hull 70 years before it was the state of the art
>double hull bulkheaded construction, 70 years ahead of schedule
>made 20 knots with a range of up to 18000 nm

romans had toilets
continuous flush but still

We gave up high culture and productivity so we can become a daycare center.

It hasnt the breakaway civ decide what new tech the slaves trapped on earth get to use. They are realizing the internet was a mistake.

French Dreadnaught, heavy iron vessel, 1860's. Totally immune to all cannon which would be carried by any naval vessel at the time. Had Krupps type single piece guns long before they were officially introduced.
Julian Jenkins
We don't need to innovate anymore. The market will provide us with whatever we need.
Henry Foster
yes
Connor Fisher
1858 submarine.

later pic with the prop shroud (yes the middle part is a propellor)

Here's an early photograph from the 1870's from Hong Kong, notice anything?

okay, are these submarines autonomously powered by a nuclear reactor and over 500 feet long with missiles that can reach thousands of miles away and obliterate entire cities?
Chase Lee
Did they need to be 150 years ago?
Nathaniel Nguyen
sorry, what was that? technology has advanced to cataclysmic world ending degrees in 150 years? okay lol, nice thread
Eli Moore
How can you cope with yourself on a daily basis?

Did (((you))) mean the big nosed monarchy, generals, bankers and other trash from Africa?

butthurt user? why...

>current naval technology is basically catching up with what existed in the 1850's
>history has to be rewritten when it comes to the invention of things like bulkheaded ships, flush rivet-less construction, range, speed, even the efficiency of the steam plants currently running on nuclear power
i wonder
Kayden Hernandez
20 knots. That’s impressive.
Jose Davis
because this is a retarded thread by a massive dipshit who should try going on a mission in a submarine from 1850 before he says some retarded shit like technology has stagnated in 150 years with some dumbfuck dipshit nigger faggot retard black and white pictures which is in itself contradictory
Liam Mitchell
the range is even more impressive
Mason Sanders
Humans lived in caves for 5000 years
Oliver Turner
they had oxygen candles back then, burn a candle, has special chemicals, releases oxygen
miners still use them, they are tested and proven through time
Luke Ramirez
user I'm loving these imgs, thanks for your time
Cooper Reyes
just to escape the solar powered uav killbots
Robert Wood
Super cool looking
Kayden Powell
I do it all for a love of the board and learning and the fact that old images show a lot to the sharp eye.
Jordan Wood
do you have anything other than ridicule to offer to this thread
>guess how i know your hat is tiny?
Christopher Davis
to this day the finest steam turbines are only 1-3% more efficient than the 4 way acting live steam plant on the great eastern
Hunter Wright
They probably don't use any similar designs because of the shit fluid dynamic properties and sonar ones. We experimented with shit that looked cool, doesn't mean it worked good.
Kayden Young
it hasn't
Caleb Hughes
indeed fren, we are in decline...
Levi Ross
Ok
Im impressed with this
Damn
Bentley Fisher
>this orthodox floating church commissioned in the 1860's and still afloat in Russia comes up and slaps you on your ass during your catholic confirmation
what do?
Cameron Hall
start swimming
Brandon Fisher
there is nothing possible to offer this thread other than ridiculing the retarded bullshit on display
Landon Walker
some of the tech in there fell out of use because after the inventor died nobody know how it worked and they eventually fitted it with SAILS lol and it only made 6-8 knots with 'em
she was in service for 0ver 40 years before being broken for scrap
Ryder White
>actual historical photos and information
>i-it's BULLSHIT she cried
you're a woman! i knew it
Jonathan Hall
perhaps you would feel more comfortable at /hm/
Luis Morales
the titanic was a hybrid, had a power turbine in it (jet engine w/ shaft output)
Grayson Turner
Titanic and Olympic were switched. Bridge wings prove it.
Colton Barnes
>muh historical photos
>muh historical info
>muh muh muh muh
>muh muh muh muh
i guess theres no hope for you
Angel Torres
jet engines w/ shaft outputs can't melt ice bergs
Jackson Wilson
Modern subs are built more for silence and depth than speed.
Although USSR did have a teardrop shape sub that was faster than any western torpedo for 35 years.
Eli Rodriguez
what for?
Ethan Thomas
insurance fraud
Michael Foster
>no hope for you
duh
