Monitor Tabby: Welcome to Core Dump, the one-stop for techies, in this episode, we revive vintage technology, with Old Unix Grandpa.

Old Unix Grandpa: I just love vintage technology and thrive in history, Universities, for example, have adopted me and nurtured the vintage technology, like museums of computing, for example, is code-centric thinking with our Unix Maker Fairies, we were successful for a long while, so successful, it was a monopoly of thought! and now we have come to transport, can an automobile be made modular with upgradable all-in-one hub motor wheels? Like computers? Elon Musk could not, and neither could the Arabs, only the Nazis had such tech and only one automobile was compatible the Yellow VW Beetle!

Lisa: Not to mention the PM Squad, keeping women busy all night!

Old Unix Grandpa: We have with the Ant Team, Dr. Bheemaiah, and the Trio, come up with a modular steam engine, we just found an old salvage truck with turbo drive and combined the exhaust with steam from a boiler! The details are simply a mixing valve, a BioLite stove(the larger model) and a high-temperature boiler and steam controls, etc.

Lisa: You have the trio in the bed of the truck feeding wood chips to a BioLite for that added power, turbo drive kicks in the third gear, and all that steam, maybe we can replace the horn with that old train whistle and we are all set?

And it is all-terrain? Who needed the streets?
