Disgustingly good level of quality. You've truly outdone yourself on this video

[@thekaiser4333]

Respect for your high-quality work! But How is it possible to make a living off this channel? And pay your rent? I guess you're not alone and have a little team. Are you secretly paid by Alibaba, the Chinese, aliens, Amazon or the Russians? Even with factor box sponsoring it doesn't add up to feed the family. Or does it?

[@multiply67]

Factor's business model is equally dystopian. Wagie slop cooked by God knows who, packaged in a toxic plastic box that you then microwave to destroy your hormones and fertility even faster. The box is also disposable, so that you can poison people that don't buy it by polluting the environment. Yummers.

[@MikeBusby3773]

I thought that was genius too

[@zachdugan7320]

What's so interesting to me is how functionally insignificant details completely transform how people perceive ideas. For example: in the "Human Transport Device", if the chicken-wire was replaced with something like plexiglass, the "scary dystopian cage" suddenly become "futuristic forklift".

[@Phytocryst]

Those details are indicative of the mindset, origin, and intent which birthed the idea, precisely because they are insignificant. Whether you use chicken wire or plexiglass, the worker inside will remain safe regardless, so from the perspective of the person designing it, it shouldn’t matter which one is chosen, but which one IS chosen indicates the sensibilities and mindsets of those who designed it, which is highly predictive of how that idea will be implemented in the real world and the impact that it will have on your life, hence why it impacted how well-received the idea is.

[@zachdugan7320]

@@Phytocryst are you suggesting that it was designed specifically to imprison the operator? It seems infinitely more likely that chickenwire is simply more cost efficient

[@Phytocryst]

@@zachdugan7320 no, I’m not. Yes, chicken wire is more cost-efficient. That’s probably why it was chosen. But the fact that cost-effectiveness is prioritized at the expense of aesthetics essentially reflects the fact that the people who designed it also prioritize efficiency over beauty, and that they failed to see the value in sacrificing efficiency for beauty. This sends an important signal, because any organization with such a set of priorities will inevitably compromize human welfare in the pursuit of improved productivity. Hence, the one, seemingly superfluous signal is indicative of deeper, more meaningful information, which is why people subconsciously induce that information from the signal and thus react so extremely negatively to that signal, despite the fact that, from a naive perspective, the reaction to the signal may be regarded as irrational and disproportionate.

The only thing I think they got wrong was that any of the warehouses would have humans working in them in 30 years from now.

[@jonmiller4361]

Worked at frito lay in the warehouse. We had an rf scanner and console on our forklifts. We had to scan when we picked up a pallet, when we got the pallet to the truck, then we had to type on the console that we were beginning to stack the boxes on the truck, had to type when we finished unloading, take the empty pallet board to the drop off spot and scan that we dropped it off, then go back and get another pallet of product, beginning the process again. Above the supervisors desk was a TV with all the employees names on it and their efficiency value (ev). You had to be above 65%. If you finished below you'd get a warning. 3 times in a quarter, a write up. And everyone got to see your ev, which would lead to shit talk as well. Fun times. Money was banging though, oh and bonuses were tied to your ev. Got Hella bank if you busted ass.

"If an intruder broke in your house they'd probably be at least somewhat hesitant to hurt a dog but with Astro well I'd take pleasure in it." Hard oof for the robot, and hilariously true.

I'm pretty sure that the closest a company has ever come to winning capitalism was the Dutch east India company. They basically owned a country or two, multiple massive islands, world trade dominance, a private military that was one of the largest in the world at the time. And they literally _invented_ office work. Ps. The first office worker in human history hated it, and said he spent half his time doing nothing pretending to be busy, it's been an issue for hundreds of years.

I worked as a package handler at an Amazon facility back in 2020, only for a month though. I had to be clocked in at 4am. My first break would be at 8am, where I'd usually just fall asleep in my car and come back to the shift 15 min late. The looks I'd get from the higher-ups whenever I came back, you'd think I killed someone. Then back to scanning packages off a fast-moving conveyor belt for another 3 hours, till I'd clock out at 11am. Everyone was so disconnected, like you were simply a cog in the machine. My god that place was so depressing, not a single soul looked even remotely optimistic about their work. That's why I lasted a month, I just couldn't take it anymore

[@nerdzone]

This production is of insane quality. Terrific job!

Well boys, he's finally back from the realms.

I have emerged from the depths of the Adobe suite to bring you another offering.

i sure do love living in a nightmarish dystopia!

[@A2L112]

Honestly replacing workers with Robots at Amazon facilities would probably be a good thing since humans wouldn't be forced to work in the awful conditions

[@DWardington]

yeah, that's the least dystopian part. Does eliminating human jobs suck? for these types of job, yes in the short term, but BIG No in the long run.

[@scrappyanimations4096]

Less jobs = less money for consumers, more money for Amazon, which further contributes to their power acquisition, allowing even more jobs to be replaced by robots until eventually they own so much of the workforce that it's virtually impossible to get a job where you don't work for them. Slippery slope.

[@MegaBruh-fr6mt]

​@@scrappyanimations4096 Someone has to service the robots. Additionally, someone has to make the parts for the robots and also extract the resources necessary to make the parts, which in turn means someone has to produce machinery parts for the machines that extract resources so on and so forth. The moment Amazon replaces humans with robots means that they deemed the the cost of hiring a human to be greater than the cost of purchasing the robots to do the job with maintenance cost also factored in (Including the wages for those who would service the robots). This also means they are likely able to scale more rapidly since Amazon will not be directly bottlenecked by workers (Amazon could be indirectly bottlenecked if the company they purchase robot parts is for whatever reason unable to supply more parts at the price Amazon deems worth the cost of keeping robots rather than hiring humans as workers. However this would also signal to the market that robot parts are in demand which means more should be produced which again means more jobs, more machinery more resource extraction etc.) which in turn means more output. This also means more profit for Amazon in that they will be able to reduce their prices to compete with competitors such as Walmart in an attempt to gain a larger market share (It is for this reason that a company can actually profit more from reducing the price of an item rather than raising the price of the item). It is important to reiterate that this benefits the consumer because now they are able to purchase the same or similar goods but for a cheaper price so in this instance it is a win win situation for both Amazon and the consumer. What I'm saying is Amazon replacing it's workers with robots will probably not actually mean their will be less jobs. Fun fact 61% of Amazon's revenue is from third party sellers and has only been increasing since its inception.

@@scrappyanimations4096 This is such a dumb way of thinking. The ultimate goal is that nobody is forced to work shitty jobs. You say it will be impossible to find a job that's not at amazon, but you fail to realize that at that point, most of the work will be automated. If we automate shitty jobs, it is a good thing. Obviously in the short term people will lose jobs and wealth, but then things like universal basic income happen. Most jobs are already pointless, if you want to work them go ahead but don't force me into your weird view of the world. Rising unemployment rate is a good thing.

[@sxaft1320]

@@gaddummit what makes you think they don't just kill you instead of giving you UBI? why do you think they want good things to come to you?

[@myusername570]

This video made me realize I'm old when you threw that disclaimer in for how shipping from online stores used to take awhile. I guess there really is people now who never experienced 2 weeks wait on a sweater from a cool store lol. Pretty high production value too. Keep it up dude

[@I_Covermoreground]

Incredibly well made and presented. This is something every single person should see.

[@soyo1]

a slow start upload has made my week, and the week just started :D

[@heatherm00ch]

Your production value is so on point I had to subscribe😊

[@nunyabiness181]

This was better animated and more entertaining, not to mention much more informative than anything I watched on tv from 1998-2008

[@thecactussword4304]

What dropped on TV in 2008? No judgement, I'm just curious what particularly dropped on TV in 2008 that was better than this?

[@NodoanSmash]

I'm going to take a guess and say peak history and science channel docushows. You got to see triremes with catapults and flamethrowers in 2000's cg. It was pretty peak.

[@montchellvonctor]

I'm so glad I found this video and your channel. This was killer, please keep making more stuff like this, I'll watch every one :)

[@zcustard]

Wow. A lot of work went into this. Well done it's awsome

[@atanasijesimic4651]

Damn dude, went from reviewing toys on a table to this. I'm impressed! Keep up the great work!

[@derpymcderpster5526]

17:17 It also doesn't help that if you fall below a specific percentile of that quota, you get written up automatically. I got fired back in June because I didn't meet them because I had a broken arm at the time. And even though I already had accommodations in place to keep me out of departments with high quotas, they kept sending me back to Pick. Didn't help that my Area Manager was a complete dickhead (also a massive homophobe). The stress got so bad I was openly cutting in the warehouse, and nobody did anything. I'm currently in the process of filing a complaint with the EOC, to get compensation for the bullshit they put me through.

[@petermmm42]

good luck

[@HeathenFitness]

Openly cutting?

[@Orphioux]

The amount of effort that went into making this is insane. Killed it.

How am I just now finding this channel?!? This intro alone is top notch professional quality. Who funds this channel??😂

[@xbm41]

creativity and time

[@ebrzyy]

Blown away by the editing quality man.. had to sub after seeing that you are somehow under 1 mil. Keep up the amazing work!

[@BenVanik]

Wow. This would have been fantastic as a podcast with just the writing and delivery -- throwing in the CG interactions is Captain Disillusion-level cool.

[@diyangenchev-7881]

How is this channel so undersubscribed? The production quality and the top-notch humour are worthy of millions of subscribers

[@VeedddeeR]

My mans is quite literally upping production quality ten fold every video now.

[@roproart6529]

Everyone talks about this stuff like it can't be stopped. All it takes is a decision to be strong and resist.

[@wastelandman198]

The last part hit especially hard kind of reminds me of the Matrix.
