Tomas David Hood: "Today in History: May 24, 1844 On this day in 1844, a quiet revolution in human communication took place. Samuel Morse, the American inventor, sat in the Supreme Court chamber in Washington, D.C., and tapped out a short, profound message on his experimental telegraph system. The message--“What hath God wrought?”--was sent across nearly 40 miles of wire to the B&O Railroad depot in Baltimore, Maryland, where it was received instantly by his partner, Alfred Vail. This moment marked the first official public demonstration of the electric telegraph, a technology that would fundamentally shrink the world. By enabling near-instantaneous long-distance communication, Morse’s invention ended the era where news could only travel as fast as a horse or a ship. It laid the technical and conceptual groundwork for the modern telecommunications age, paving the way for everything from the telephone and radio to the internet itself. The choice of phrase was suggested by Annie Ellsworth, the daughter of a friend of Morse, who selected it from the Bible (Numbers 23:23). It perfectly captured the awe and technological magnitude of a feat that transformed the human experience forever." #TodayInHistory #History #Innovation #TechHistory #SamuelMorse #Telegraph #Communication #OnThisDay

So I tried Meshtastic for the first time this week and I figured I'd summarize my experience in meme format.
