    Self check-outs are an awkward sort of half-measure as far as automation goes.


    I kind of expect retail automation to head to a place where customers walk into what amounts to a lobby, select what they want on a screen and then have the good delivered to their spot in the lobby. Or, if a lobby can't realistically provide enough outputs, just have them all be stations attached to the building exterior.

    The internals of the store basically acts as a glorified vending machine.


    Or maybe we do away with big stores altogether and just have smaller vending locations everywhere.


    Or maybe we just burn everything down in WWIII and everyone goes back to subsistence farming.

    "aliens" isn't really like...what prey was about

    Prey was about a fucked up alien invasion humanity didn't even have a prayer of a chance of surviving and one dude going on a fucked up spirit quest in the process

    also weird shrinking growing portal stuff

    a human operated checkout means I don't have to use my arms as much

    yeah but then you have to deal with judgy teenagers judging your purchases.

    but Amazon can't manage order fulfillment without an army of poorly paid people to get stuff from shelves, and i am picky about produce.

    also, how would i min/max my diary product expiry dates?

    you could even take advantage of the fact that nobody knows how to use computers and create a bunch of pre-bundled garbage, filled with your highest margin items, and label it with a big 'CLICK HERE TO BUY ALL OF YOUR GROCERIES REAL SIMPLE RIGHT NOW' button.

    Its in our nature to give them things and then take them back for ourselves.

    I can't remember if Tommy lived or died at the end of the first game.
    The girlfriend croaked, though. That was a hilarious boss fight.

    don't worry, you can still go to your old tyme grocer, just like my step-dad still goes to the human teller at the bank and my mother still goes to the bakery
