Ember, Triune 🎶🔆🔥⚡️ @emanate@awoo.space

@kistaro I've shopped in an Amazon Go store once so far. You scan a bar code when you enter and that's it. Somehow everythjng you pull from the shelves and add to your bag is accounted and added to your cart, and checked out when you leave.
It makes it feel a bit like shoplifting except with also paying. :-P

@tastymochafox @rey Yeah I'm probably gonna do that soon too. Been at the point where I'm just gonna close my other Masto accounts and just use this one.

@faynefluff Oooh gosh yes. ^v^ Or the back of the neck, under the fluff.

@faynefluff I'm a bird (well, phoenix) so I don't have big ears (because I'm not a gryphon) but I'd still take headpets! ^_^

@phenokage@snouts.online Oh my GOSH these are adorable!

@Leucrotta Yeah, they have had for a while. I end up tethering my phone there more often than not. :-/

@Leucrotta Yeah, thanks for saying this. I get pretty dang anxkous about the 'scorched earth' revolution mentality, because tearing /everything/ down utterly and all at once both almost never happens, and causes a lot more problems than it solves, historically.
Also, the entire industry that is my career shouldn't just collapse outright either--there's worthwhile things and goods from all over the world that we can't just give away to the people or trade for goods and services. And we can only get them because there's a distribution network in place, and transportation, and so on.

@Jacel Stole it from a Boards of Canada album title, but thanks. :-D

@Jacel Oh wow this is fantastic. :-D
I always wanted to be a ship or drone in that series!
I'd probably be a (D)ROU or VFP, named Music Has A Right To Children. :-)

@Doephin Supervillain takes over Magrathea, uses the assembly floor as test firing range for megabeam... I like it!

@Leucrotta True, true. :-)

@Leucrotta @Aradia I'd be happy to hang out with you when I'm not at work, too! I'm always a little distracted when there's a lot of folks in the store at once. :-}

@Leucrotta Yeah, and the plan is labyrinthine! It's like a smaller version of my favorite bookstore when I was a kid. Huge warehouses connected together, dark and cramped, meandering everywhere. Grey Wolf Books, in the Bay Area (sadly long gone now).
