      Interesting ... childish name calling because I've proved you're wrong on a different thread

      As for robots doing this kind of job, it's been the case for decades so do please try to keep up. I was working for British Gas in the early 90's and we were using this type of technology (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pigging)

      Seems though that you're not smart enough to understand the difference between this type of activity, and the work required to care for sick and vulnerable individuals. Let's hope you or a loved one never needs this kind of 24/7 care, you'd never cope.

        Ah Warty I have always called you that back when you and Assgoo were regularly going for circle jerks, competing to be the most condescending and bullying people. I had hoped you had realised that your behaviour was unpleasant and tried to stop it but you haven't.

        Yes you proved me wrong Accountants must be licensed to trade in the same way as IFA's are. oh sorry they aren't are they?

        Robots and assistive technology are already looking after people I added links and everything.

        If you think a metal slug pushed/pulled down a barrel qualifies as a robot then you are a bit thick.

            Might one refer Sir to that fine documentary series "Sewermen" on 5/Paramount wherein one sees the robotic equipment available to said chaps (and chapesses as it transpires).

            Some of the fatbergs on that prog proved so recalcitrant that after spending £0.5M, they gave up & put a new sewer in.

              Are they robots or remotely operated vehicles? The thing about a robot is the autonomy or forced labour if you are Czech.


              (especially in science fiction) a machine resembling a human being and able to replicate certain human movements and functions automatically.

              Similar:
              automaton
              android
              machine
              golem
              bot
              droid
              • a machine capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically, especially one programmable by a computer.

                  If that's immunity from stupidity, it's not working for Vetran
