Elizabeth (1806 ship)

Elizabeth was a snow launched in 1806 at Liverpool for the slave trade. She left Liverpool on 19 April 1807 and gathered slaves in West Africa.[1] On 17 October the French privateer Général Ernouf,[4] under the command of the notable French privateer captain Alexis Grassin,[5] captured Elizabeth after Elizabeth had embarked her slaves. Général-Ernouf sent her into Guadeloupe with her cargo of 176 Negroes.[3]

gollark: No, that seems to just *naturally* have no users
gollark: Initial CUDA support (it is apparently maybe 10% faster on nvidia stuff, but generally the same) and nobody ever bothered to change it because all the researchers just bought from nvidia? That seems kind of implausible.
gollark: Which does make me wonder why machine learning tools aren't written against it.
gollark: Yes. This is vendor lockin. OpenCL works basically fine.
