- baq 2y agoThat’s one of the few reasons to leave the house. I’d like dishes and laundry bots first, please.
- dodslaser 2y agoYou mean dishwashers and washing machines?
- baq 2y agoYes, but no. I want a robot to load and unload those.

I can imagine the convenience, but at this scale it sounds a bit unreasonable. dishwasher runs at least once a day, at least 80% full, every day, unless we're traveling.
