This reminds of a guy who was doing road work on my street a while ago. Crusty-est redneck you can imagine with a cigarette in his mouth at all times. He was a damn artist with the heavy machinery, though. I remember him carefully smoothing and filling the road after digging and it was done with delicacy and attention to detail like you wouldn't believe. My wife and I named him Dale.

Like Rex for a dog or... I don't get it...

Looks like Dale from King of the Hill?

[–] Assman@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

Et tu Dale?

My god, I would gladly switch careers so long as my ADD and I got to play with ~~toys~~ tools like that.

I already have several dozen hours of experience on a mini excavator and a mini skid steer, too bad a wrist connection like this just isn’t made for the cheap Chinese mini excavators.

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Well, these careers are going extinct, so they're not badly paid nowadays (speaking from experience).

[–] 11111one11111@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The career is going instinct like not enough jobs or the people entering these fields as career choices is going extinct so there is seemingly more work than available tradesman?

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

The number of people going into these fields as a career choices are less and less, that is what I meant.

I'm sooooo satisfied

I watched a video earlier of a robot hot dog machine fucking up monumentally while trying to dispense a hot dog, and then I watched this video and man, it really is going to be a long time before we have to worry about robots taking all the jobs.

Your assuming the importance of quality.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

My toxic trait is thinking that I can do this

[–] mjhelto@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

...and be a pro at it within days.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 2 points 2 years ago

Nah. First time.

Millions of skilled labourers probably like this exist across the globe with talent and skill beyond anything we could even imagine.

[–] Habahnow@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

cool video. How do the attachments work? there's some kind of locking mechanism right? seemed like they just scooped up the attachments into place, but that would also mean certain movement could make the attachments fall off, unless there's a locking mechanism.

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No, there's an unlocking mechanism activated on the operator's side. The locking is automatic (with a swipe), but not the unlocking.

[–] Habahnow@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

Thanks! Makes sense

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 10 points 2 years ago

I'm sad he didnt do a little tappy tap on the lid after he gently placed it.

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

He even packed up his stuff and straightened it up πŸ₯Ί

[–] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It was obviously impressive work, but what was the work?

[–] Phoenix3875@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Walter, where is the money?

[–] kenoh@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago

This is the closest thing I've seen to an IRL labor mech from Patlabor

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

Just think how good this person could be with a little practice!

[–] Randomgal@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 years ago

Bro wtf I never imagined this is what it's like to be inside of one of those yellow excavators. That looks so fucking fun!

[–] d00ery@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Don't let the AI see how well the digger arm can manipulate it's environment!

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Here? No chance. But it was posted on reddit first 🀷.

[–] zante@lemmy.wtf 2 points 2 years ago

Like that time I ran a marathon in 20 minutes
