I saw this post on BoingBoing with panoramas of power plant control rooms and I got almost sad when I saw this one:
Hydroelectric Power Plant, Mirejovice – Control Room Gigapixel in Czech Republic
Look all the knobs and buttons and lights. It’s absolutely gorgeous and nothing like it will be made ever again. It’s not hard to believe that in 10-20 years all workstations will be boring, flat, touchscreens. Of course, this makes sense, but it bums me out just the same. They really don’t make ‘em like they used to. Be sure to zoom in on the panoramic image. It has amazing detail. BoingBoing has more.











That’s so steampunk.
Wait, what sort of detail is that? Oh yeah. Amazing…
Hey, I still get to use the word, I didn’t abuse it like you and Justin. Amazing Shit My Amazing Dad Says.
