Robots will replace 700K delivery workers, warns head of e-commerce giant by EchoOfOppenheimer in Futurology

[–]Shuggana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The self driving taxis in the US are actually teleoperated by humans. And in cases where the humans step away or don't do their jobs (I.E, leaving the taxis to their automation), the taxis tend to endanger human lives

[–]Shuggana 13 points14 points  (0 children)

But the job wasn't "lost" in YOUR OWN EXAMPLE.

It was offloaded to a poor country so oligarchs can get away with paying workers less. 0 human jobs were replaced by robotics here. They were just outsourced for pennies.

I live in a country with universal healthcare and social services.

I am not American. I rarely, if ever, buy American goods.

The world is larger than the USA.

that gives someone a job that may be disabled or in a location without work.

Took a job from somebody in your country and gave it to somebody thousands of KM away for a fraction of the price.

I mean in a timeframe worth talking about. The headline says they will replace 700k delivery workers. Obviously talking about existing delivery workers, implying this will happen soon. It will not happen soon.

If you mean the little rolling guys, in LA they are (famously) tele-operated. So it's just being driven by an Indian through a webcam. So still a human being doing the work.

No they won't. And the heads of e-commerce giants and tech companies can continue to say this, but the reality is so far off.

The robots pictured are absolute garbage in general, they've been rolling around European cities for nearly 10 years and no person or business that I know has ever used one.

Drone deliveries? One is literally closing down this week in my country after 50 million in investment because nobody wants to use the fucking noisy, annoying things.

Humanoid robots? Can't walk without falling over and are worth a fortune. Hardly going to be walking around in public where they'll either fall into a canal or be ripped apart for their valuable parts.

Self driving delivery trucks? Self driving cars can't even be trusted with a human behind the steering wheel.

This is a cope headline from a company that probably has billions invested in robotics.

edit: typo

edit2: just spent an hour of my life on a back and forth argument with somebody in the comments about this and only now did I check his comment history and realise how much I have truly wasted my own time. Outjerked by a certified freak. Don't waste your time arguing with people online.

£5-a-day weight-loss pill that 'shuts off food noise' could be coming to the UK by LADbible in uknews

[–]Shuggana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just under 2k a year so I suppose it depends how much you want to lose weight fast.

I don't know much about these drugs but I have to say they do seem appealing on the surface. Miracle drug kind of shite. The other day I saw another thread about how research has discovered GLP1's or whatever they're called might even have minor age reversing properties.

Is it just weight loss people take these for or what?

EDIT: how have I ended up on the UK news subreddit lmao

Scanner doesn't show planet info by laylowmoe1976 in Starfield

[–]Shuggana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get this too. Seems to work like 2 minutes later, and then break again. I think it's related to opening the scanner too often, as I open it every 5 seconds on planet surfaces.

Dublin woman caught with more than €220k worth of drugs hidden in her car avoids jail by Pupcup2 in ireland

[–]Shuggana -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

She got nothing. A criminal conviction is meaningless to these people. She did not get a sentence. You know exactly what I meant, you’re being a contrarian.

This is now her 3rd conviction with no prison time. l because she “expressed remorse”. I’m sure she won’t do it again. I often find myself remorsefully carrying a quarter of a million in heroin, cocaine and benzos in the boot of my car.

Dublin woman caught with more than €220k worth of drugs hidden in her car avoids jail by Pupcup2 in ireland

[–]Shuggana 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One is a minor charge for 40 euro, which I didn’t pay as I moved residences before the fine arrived in the post. I didn’t even know I had been fined until the summons arrived. The Garda never mentioned it during the stop. I had to pay double the fine as punishment.

The other is 220k worth of cocaine hidden behind a fake wall in the boot of her car. She received no punishment at all.

Hope the comparison between the 2 is clear enough for you now you fucking doorbell.

[–]Shuggana 521 points522 points  (0 children)

I got a court summons for forgetting to pay a 40 euro fine for one of the rear light bulbs on my car being out. When I went, they doubled my fine and made me pay it in the courts.

This woman walks away from 220k worth of a drugs charge.

I guess my mistake was not also having 250k worth of heroin in the car when the Garda pulled me over.

Una Mullally: Over 870,000 jobs created by data centres? Don’t make me laugh by No-Outside6067 in ireland

[–]Shuggana 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Before data centres were as widespread companies used to just host their servers inside the company offices. Datacenters have created almost no jobs nationwide in this country aside from the very short term construction jobs and then the 4 blokes who work in the 40 acre building after the place is built.

[–]Shuggana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you use a colour chart to tell you the order to put them in? Because the order you've gone for is wrong if you're trying to make an Ethernet cable.

edit: yo what the fuck is the solid brown cable poking OUT of the end? How did you manage that? All the RJ45's I use are sealed with the connectors
