Can humans do nothing now? Is it that hard to pick the potatoes yourself? You already planted them in rows (nature already does this). is it that hard to water them yourself? also feels insincere to tell your neighbor you grew those potatoes when a machine did everything.

Yeah lets compare organising a desktop with planting potatoes. Tractors didn't need subscription, entire thing was owned by you. Automation in agriculture started the income inequality we still see today as Rich landowners didnt need to pay many people. Later the fertilizers and industrial agriculture led to dust bowls. But yeah it was all good right?

  • damn, didnt think i would get pushback from the anti-plow lobby. Why are you on a technology forum if you hate technology?
