Yeah, one thing is for sure: the robot has actually understood that it is very boring to do the laundry. Proof ? Just look at how it botches the d*n task :-) I mean, I would never ever pince a t-shirt so bad :-)





I hate doing laundry. Everyone gets one task they get to abhor. Mine is laundry. If I could buy this in a few generations for less than $20k, I would, pinches and all.

Perfect is perfect. Good enough is good enough.


$20k... Doesn't that buy a lot of serviced laundry? I am unaware about prices in the rest of the world, but 20k is more than a lifetime of having my laundry picked up and ironed every week (which I do as I too hate laundry).

In my neck of the woods it costs a couple years of the cleaner dropping in every week or two. In New York, maybe a couple more years, albeit with the added burden of having to pick it up and drop it off myself.
