we are using these to work less and let the machines do the boring shit for us, right?
Given that it's happening in China, there's a good chance automation will be used to reduce work.
I got a mid cost ($450, they go up to $2700 being the most expensive i saw) roomba and while it isn't perfect like I'm not gonna have to clean my floors again. This thing charges itself, empties itself, it mops and refills its own water tank and shit.
And this is just a roomba. Some of those features i only saw on $800 alternatives, China's giving me that self refilling for half the cost
That 2700 dollar roomba had a fuckin robot arm on it to pick up pet toys like a fucking star wars droid
Ok that's pretty amazing. I gotta check out these Chinese robo vacuums. :)
