It's so frustrating right?
"I want a robot to cut my hair in 2 minutes because why would I want to have to talk to a human being"
Or one that really alarmed me was Rob Rhinehart's (Soylent) comments about groceries

>I have not set foot in a grocery store in years. Nevermore will I bumble through endless confusing aisles like a pack-donkey searching for feed while the smell of rotting flesh fills my nostrils and fluorescent lights sear my eyeballs and sappy love songs torture my ears.
We're turning into a reclusive, anti-social, afraid of each other, society because those are the types that get funding.
Shakespeare was a fortune teller:
>And private in his chamber pens himself,
>Shuts up his windows, locks fair daylight out,
>And makes himself an artificial night.
>Black and portentous must this humor prove
>Unless good counsel may the cause remove.
I don't want to spend all of my time alone, staring at one display or another, interacting with code or algorithm-selected content.
Thank you for being one of the sane ones that sees the absurdity of it!
