HiTech Robotic lawn care system pioneered by Google, threatens Mexicans everywhere

Robotics are totally coming of age, as is artificial intelligence. Google just implemented one of these systems and it seems to be working well. I'm guessing cheap illegal labor will not be able to compete.

This robot has a complex AI that can produce a general awareness, though rudimentary knowledge of where it has been so it can logically compute where to go next to mow the grass. It is low power and has a low carbon footprint for those that care about such things. Dang impressive.

You are getting more and more beyond the pale everyday.

Can you just admit your feelings and be done with all this?

In my personal opinion you have shown on multiple occasions a tendency to be outright racist and downright beyond the pale. I do not see how you expect Neal to keep tolerating such posts.

He tolerated your conspiracy theories and right wing bullcrap (And by bullcrap I mean some stuff you talk about not even deep RWers touch) But I don't think topics like this help to convince people you deserve not to be banned the hell out of here.

Note folks: There is no "Mex, Mexico, Mexican" word in that article.

Caricaturing a nation by the social class of some of it's people isn't really on.

Hey I mow people's lawns in my town for like, £5 or £10. Does that make me an "illegal immigrant"?

I used to mow lawn too, when i was a friggin kid, but I am an adult and have a real job. I have not seen one ethnic group other than Mexicans performing yard work in my city. It pisses me off because they insist on using leaf blowers early on Saturdays. I take care of my own yard and when they see me doing the work they come over to solicit me even though they cannot speak english well at all. Just last week I was trimming the hedges and one of the workers just decided to start using that god damn leaf blower on my sidewalk. I had to stop the fellow and attempted to communicate to him why the frick he was doing that, then his Poppi came over and in broken english said "He pick up leeeves for chu...". I asked, "Por Nada". "No-no senior! For money", he said. I told them both to get the frick off my sidewalk. I do not mind being solicited, but to just start working without permission is pompous arrogance I do not care what ethnicity they are. Eh, I will buy the robot

Man - being politically correct instead of saying they are illegals (hint hint) doesn't get you anywhere. I'll be more blunt next time.

It was supposed to be funny.
