That RANDOM changes occured over time.
Random means "Chance" and chance is the opposite of choice.
Chance is having no intellegence added.
The development of all tech. is the result of applied intellegence.
Even the Pinto.
You can call development that we do "Evolution" but that is not what darwin proposed.

It's a bit embarassing for you to lecture us like this when such obvious gaps in your understanding are showing.
The important part of (neo)darwinian evolution which you don't seem to grasp is that, while mutations may be random, the selection process does not treat these mutations randomly, but favors those which are more suitable for procreation. Thus, information from the environment enters the genome. This process can be used in engineering. It's basically a optimized version of trial and error.
