CuriousMarc 将一台修复好的 1930 年 Model 15 电传打字机接入 Linux 系统当终端使用，展示了如何用现代操作系统去驱动这台纯机械的 5-bit 波多码设备。
为什么 HN 推它
终端与 Unix 历史爱好者的狂欢，用最直观的机械运作解释了 ed 编辑器逻辑以及 tty 回显机制的历史根源。
「在我看来，这绝对是整个互联网上最棒的视频之一。」HN 网友原话：It's one of the best things on the Internet, IMO.
英文原摘要（HackerTube / Claude 整理）
CuriousMarc connects a restored 1930 Model 15 Teletype to a Linux machine and uses it as a terminal, after commenters requested it. The video shows the challenges of linking a 5-bit mechanical device to a modern OS.
HN commenters love it as a vivid demonstration of terminal history, explaining why tools like ed and the tty echo model work the way they do.
