Why didn’t ancient civilizations invent basic tools such as the telephone, water heaters, aeroplanes, etc? The materials to make these things have always existed so what’s stopping them?
>>16800996>he thinks electricity always existed
>>16800996Ancient civilizations did "invent" these things eventually. It's just that by the time they invented these things they were no longer "ancient".
>>16801000electricity has always existed...
>>16801006yeah, just like the internet!retard
>>16801006so when computers were made the internet just magically existed for all this time?you’re basically spewing Christian dogma that says God exists because humans exist and are made in His Image lmaoo
>>16800996>telephone, water heaters, aeroplanes>basicyou need specialized training, abundant access to energy and hard to gather materials to build these from scratch. Just look at the logistics needed to make a modern sandwich from scratch today: https://youtu.be/URvWSsAgtJE?si=ZFcY3osSLOQYI0_A(Bonus: what one needs to do to make a big Mac in ancient times: https://youtu.be/3OSXiivR04A?si=O--NxuKAP3nAZIad ). water heaters are actually pretty old though, the Romans did it for fun.
>>16801006>>16801011>>16801015This is the same poster talking to himself.
You need to oppress women enough in the right way to get those things.Most civilizations don't oppress women enough to get those things.
>>16800996Stupidity and ignorance. There's no material reason ancient people couldn't have invented at least the tin can telephone, but even that was only invented in 17th century Europe, speaking tubes and ear trumpets in the 18th century, the stethoscope and pinard horn in the 19th (literally just a wooden/bone tube or cardboard roll initially)
>>16801000That is a real question don't just brush it off as being a power problem. Before our engines were powered by steam or explosion we had slaves. Biomechanical engines. Why the Greeks, who had a good understanding of what sound is, didn't just make a recorder and a player?Simple answer is that they did not think about it. Hard answer is up for debate.
Idk, but they did have sophisticated communication devices. Most empires had sprinters who would run from one post to another, hand it over to the next sprinter, and so on until the information got to the King or Emperor. This is how, even in antiquity, information traveled 10x faster than a man on horse.
>>16801719This is also how the Incan king got fresh sea fish every day even though a person by foot would have 1.5 weeks or more to travel from the Peruvian coasts to Cuzco.
>>16801719no wonder blacks are so fast
