Where does the flour for the bread come from ?
From the essential workers who don't get to enjoy this wonderful utopia everyone is so excited about. Ask healthcare workers how they liked the pandemic.
Right? This utopia is only for a select few who brag about how great it will be when they don't have to deal with anyone else and can just fuck around without having to think of others.
Some of us were laid of in states that didn't provide unemployment pay and suffered trying to find work, and being taken advantage of. They dream of a dystopia because they were on the good side of it.
Well obviously somebody has to toil so the rest of us can do fuck all, but if they're poor and far away we don't have to think about them too much.
I'd like to fully automate grain harvesting.
Fun fact: I once talked about this with a distant relative, and they replied "but wouldn't that imply a loss of workplaces for farmers?".
Funner fact: they basically have automated grain harvesting. Combine harvesters can use GPS positioning to drive themselves. They also come with remote controllers much like a model airplane, or drone does.
And yes, it does mean that the farmers aren't hiring as many farm hands as they used to.
Do you happen to have a link? I only find articles talking about attempting it, but not making it.
Unfortunately, no. I can't find the article that I read about it.
