Only issue I have with that is how does it deal with preparation, inspection and pre-cleaning?

Like, it's movements were basically mo-capped. That range of movement isn't great, if you mo-capped them cutting an oblong potato, how well does it cut a round one? Can it reliably peel a potato without wasting shit tons of it due to irregular shape? If there's a bad spot will it know how to cut it out and how much of it? If there is debris on or in the food can and will it remove it? Will it pre-wash your vegetables or do you have to do that yourself? Does it make bulk batches? Because that's something I do a lot of. Can I request it make like 10 servings of a dish for that, will it get fed up with my requests and strangle me because even if a professional chef mo-capped it, I'm still going to criticize robo-chef for it's shit spice choices.

I have no idea. I just think it's neat.
 
I'm pretty sure they tried one out in my city, or at least a machine like it and yeah, it definitely needs to improve a bunch still before it's actually viable beyond making for interesting novelty restaurants. But if they manage to do that it'd be kinda neat, yeah.

Let's not go into the Kyle Rittenhouse mess no matter what your opinion is on what he did or the judgement rendered.

This is a hot mess, no matter what, one which easily can and will go into Rule 8 territory.

I'm a trucker, so most of my news will be CDL related.

As someone who has a retired trucker for an uncle and a sadly deceased uncle who was exclusively a big rig diesel mechanic, I lazily salute you with my nonexistant trucker hat and can of Bud-lite, keep those wheels rollin and the engine warm. Ride eternal, Shiny and chrome.
