This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I’m in a park. The grass is being mown by a robot. (lemmy.world)

We thought the rider fell off or something and it was going to crash. Then it turned and kept mowing. Park Roomba!

Depends on how much maintenance it requires. And someone is going to need to be paid to deploy it and watch it to ensure that nobody fucks with it and that it doesn't eat some park sunbather or something. And to make sure the grounds are clear of debris. Etc.

Don't think you can count on just removing a salary here.

If a park sunbather gets eaten by a mower, did it really happen?

A second robot deploys to clean out the leaves and dead bodies.
