History

Originally named the Nancy Dousman, the ship was built in 1833.[2] By 1846, the Dousman had already sunk once and had been raised and re-built in a larger size, as well as given its new name. In 1851, the ship sank again due to a gale.[3][4]

gollark: Hopefully brains parallelize well.
gollark: Maybe. Growth in computing power has slowed lately.
gollark: I think people have (obviously very roughly) estimated that you would need something like an exabyte of storage and exaflop of processing power to run a brain.
gollark: We have quantum computing to some extent now. It's not magic. It just does some operations faster.
gollark: I'm not very hopeful about brain uploading soon, since brains are very complex, poorly understood in some bits, and would be very computationally intensive to simulate.
