Re: Thought for Today
In reality War by Remote Control has been happening for years.
The Generals/Admirals certainly do not get anywhere near the death zones.
The orders come from the top and get passed down the communication channels.
As we got more advanced it went from paper and couriers to radio, then to electronics, and it's still evolving.
The advancement of technology is already being applied, a good example is the usage of drones in Ukraine, so I suppose it won't be long before it is done in a similar way you described, but with much heavier equipment and fewer humans at the front of the battle.

hhmmmm. Once the worker assembled the car in the lounge-room, how did the s/he get it out onto the street?Musk – also the CEO of Tesla – told workers at the electric car maker in June that working remotely would no longer be acceptable.

Re: Thought for Today
It's a bit of a laugh, he expects the world to buy his cars online, but his office staff can't work online from home ..... his ruthless approach on culling the workforce at Twitter might have backfire on him as well with people leaving without being laid off .... he best be careful, his Tesla staff may start doing the same thing. The workplace pre-pandemic where everyone was scared of loosing their job is no more, now it's the bosses scared of loosing their workforce and Elon needs to catch up with the way the worker market place operates now ......

I like his pay rate…
Might try that with SWMBO…………………
I bet the lady in the Caddy didn’t offer him a higher rate.

Here today, gone tomorrow.
There is still plenty of those food delivery services available, but only if you live in a big city.

Re: Thought for Today
With Diliveroo gone it's a great chance for a couple of independent drivers to form their own group and lobby their best customers for a " Delivery contract".
Work directly with/from the best places they had delivered from before, but this time the delivery fee goes into their own pockets and not Deliveroo.
