  • there's a crosswalk near me that has a 50% historical chance of the approaching driver ignoring the no right on red. of that 50%, roughly 25% are close enough to me that I would say I am in danger and I can reach the vehicle.

    I could absolutely have avoided some of those if I just waited for the car to blow the stop line, but I don't, because I don't want to live my life in fear, it's their fucking obligation to stop and not maim me, and then if I hesitate to walk out that just means it'll confuse other drivers who stopped for me but then see me not going and take the opportunity to blow the stop anyways as soon as I start walking. I'm fucked either way.

  • glad I live in Canada where if I do this, when somebody nearly murders me in a crosswalk after they blow the stop line on a red light, that the worst that'll happen is they'll try to get me to come back into traffic and fight them, but they'll be too pussy to pull over and park and come over to me.

  • I'm a hell of a lot more sympathetic to a privately owned local restaurant employing people in my neighborhood and using that profit in my local economy than I am an oil company, though

  • if companies chase the same profit levels, then yes. that is the inherent flaw with the state of capitalism in today's world. it requires the working class to get exhausted so the rich can have a greater unnecessary level of wealth and corporations can return profit to shareholders.

  • I'll have to look into those and see what level of autonomy is happening, thanks for the info. a quick search says they do some welding as well. usually the fully automated stuff is just final assembly stuff and paint, which is simpler to automate because everything is in known locations.

    that's also kind of why I always find it funny when people brag about where the final assembly of a vehicle happens - okay but like where did all the parts come from? there's four $5 million cells in Mexico, designed and built by Canadians, making the rear subframe and employing hundreds of people; why is a car "American" because you put the last pieces together in the US?

  • well, that and the fact that it can't actually do something to the same level of quality.

    but that's not going to stop it from taking the jobs. only from actually completing them successfully after it does so.

  • eh, sort of.

    I work in automotive manufacturing. it's a huge world. there are tons of people involved in designing, building, and running these cells.

    also, the human part is pretty much always the most basic shit - loading and unloading feeders, moving material around with a forklift, loading parts by hand into the machine from material bins because it's cheaper to hire someone to do that complex task (that is not sarcastic, picking something up from a loose bin and placing it in a known orientation is a difficult task to automate) than to teach and operate a robot for that

    I don't know how line operators stay sane. I've designed cells where it's somebody's job to do the same dozen motions every minute for an entire shift. many cells like that.

  • lol one of my friends does this.

    asked me how much caffeine I drink and like idk dude I rebrew my used grounds like a disgusting person does, because it just naturally becomes decaf that way, right?

    then he goes on to say how many mg of caffeine he likes on an average day and how it varies depending on length of work day, intensity, and weekends etc

    aight dude that's way more thought than I put into it, all I know is that I have a caffeine addiction and I'm slowly weaning myself off it

  • any low speed (<2000rpm) handheld rotary tool with a buffing wheel ain't gonna do much. i.e. drills

    a palm sander with a soft attachment is basically just an electric toothbrush

    compressed air isn't going to hurt your teeth. and leaf blower low pressure air certainly isn't. like the other guy said. same for vacuums.

    that's really about it. I was exaggerating a bit for comedic effect when I said "a few", because tbh I didn't think much about it.

    oh and of course you can always stick your head in a lathe, lathes are like the super safest tool there is
