Rerun the test with Bitch and Cunt. See if the demographics don't change.
I'm not saying men don't say 'slut' and 'whore'. But those terms are mostly used by catty bitches talking shit about each other. Truth: Most men kind of like sluts, less work. It's women that hate sluts, sluts drive down 'the market' for pussy.
Back in the day, if you wanted one more encore. You rigged you bic to throw out a 2 second, 6 foot flame. These days it only works on really cheap lighters.
I was decades ago, but I also 'did a little time' at Kinkos.
What I saw was one student (as you say, usually asian) copy a textbook on the self serve machines (we wouldn't do it, simple as that). Then give us the output of his work to run off 5 or six copies. We'd then see these copies come back to make an additional 10, one at a time. Funny, we never 'noticed' it was copyrighted.
I guess our cheap asians were smarter than yours. We'd even print it on 3 hole punch or shitty bind it.
People are stupid. The key to success in life is separating stupid people from their money. Hopefully without breaking any laws, but at least, without getting caught.
Requiring their own SIMs is the least of the reasons not to buy a brand new car.
Until the car makers get their act together and build firmware to aviation standards, I will stick with brake peddle attached to master cylinder, throttle cable, stick shift, thanks. Comes from growing up in 'car cancer' country and now living in CA. The old cars are great here, hack a cradle into the dash and I'm good to go.
Those aviation standards will also likely set back 'automatic cars' a little. But so be it. It will help in the long run.
If reading about the Toyota engine controller doesn't scare you. I don't know what to say. Multithreaded, no protected memory, untrapped exceptions killing threads, threads known to corrupt memory they didn't own. If your Toyota ever 'acted haunted' and went back to normal after a power cycle, you weren't crazy.
'Robots' are old technology already. Computers have been 'fast enough' for the controller job for decades. The AI controller is still a dream. The last 'breakthrough' required was the near perfection of electric motion control (to eliminate hydraulics).
As pointed out upthread, this is just two cost curves crossing. A little sooner than expected.
Further the 'burger flipper' conveyor cooker is also decades old, as is the self timing, automatic fry basket. Granting neither is universal.
Should McDonald's not have put the self timing baskets in 20 years ago, because someday there would be an arm to finish the fry packaging job?
Making practical kitchen robots, even fast food kitchens, will just be hard work. One job/cost curve at a time, with the end game still having one or two humans there to kick the machines when needed, replace dirty and torn sanitary plastic robot covers, clear hopper jams etc.
One practical thing I'll throw in there. I'll bet in 20 years an unguarded fry vat will be an OSHA infraction. Just to put 'mom and pops' out of business.
The only reason industry went near 100% automated, in the cases they did, was the parts got too small.
After much digging, I found your source...Bill Maher.
The truth of the matter is that the average _restaurant_ front line worker is 29. That includes servers and cooks at real restaurants, who generally make decent money for their skill levels, not minimum wage.
Politico was very generous calling it 'mostly true'. As I said, dishonest argument noted. It was even worse than I thought. They not only conflated minimum wage FF workers with all FF workers, they conflated all restaurant workers with minimum wage FF workers. Lying sacks of shit IMHO.
I've had my wages counted as capital expenses. By crooks. They counted all software costs as development and capitalized it, then sold the place on the strength of the cash flow.
You'd think company auditors doing the due diligence would have noticed the insane development/support cost ratios. Fools and their money were lucky to get together in the first place.
If you are 20-25 and think you are a competent software architect, you are almost certainly wrong. It just takes experience dealing with long term consequences of early design decisions. Then repeat and learn that what you thought at the end of the first project didn't apply universally.
About 1 in 5 fast food workers is a crew chief, 1 in 10 fast food workers in an assitant manager, about 1 in 20 is a manager. They don't make minimum wage.
Dishonest argument noted. Shift from 'minimum wage' to 'fast food worker'.
If true, it says more about the wide ranging lack of skills in America than anything else.
3.5% of American workers are making minimum, a person must really really suck to stay there. If 35 was the true number that would have to mean that many 16 year olds are able to get more than minimum. Which must make being 35 and making minimum really sting.
The reality is that, unless you go out every 2-4 weeks and drop $500 on a new video card or the latest whatever the fuck for your PC, it is unlikely that you are getting the same game quality that you get on a console.
Game consoles update how often in your fantasy world? Every 2-4 weeks? Smoke some more crack, console boy. With a console you are anywhere from 1 to 5 years out of date.
Face facts, serious gamers are on PC and always have been. It's also the only path from gamer to computer professional. PC = personal computer, not IBM PC clone.

Always been humor. It's not like I stubbed my toe, that's tragedy. (para. Mel)
I'm going to find clean one and make an ElCaMetro. Put a Honda B engine and drivetrain in it. Should fly.

It's going to cost you a buck or two to get that all removed, but it can be done.

It was the core of your argument, along with the thought that South Africa was somehow an exception, 'because franchises'.
Just by way of clue. McDonald's makes _terrible_ hamburgers, literal shit and pink slime sanitized by ammonia.

You assume robots improve at roughly the pace of computers. That's a terrible assumption.
Name one country were McDonalds put all the local fast food out of business.
You can't, because you are _full of shit_.

You'd think company auditors doing the due diligence would have noticed the insane development/support cost ratios. Fools and their money were lucky to get together in the first place.
You have no clue. There are millions of working people in America working for cash. Almost everyone on SS disability to start.
Kilowatt linears are FCC approved. Until I hook it up to my cell phone.
Cite it then. It's not that I don't trust you, I don't trust anyone.
The shortage is in competent software architects.

If you can really train any average schmo to do your job in a few months it's going to suck to be you very soon.
Don't assume because you have an easy, phone it in, job that all are. Most tech jobs are not.
Can you get that or similar information from a _reliable_ source?
Nobody involved is trustworthy. But only one it running for president.
I for one hope Lanzo has the complete archive.
I'm going with 'Citation needed'.

A Modular console will just be a locked down PC. Why would anybody touch suck a pile of shit?
