General purpose housekeeping robots. Something that can roam around, picking up laundry and putting it in a hamper, then loading it into the washer and dryer, loading and unloading the dishwasher, picking up and wiping countertops, general organizing.
We got robot vacuum cleaners and things paused after that.

Why do appliances need to be aerodynamic, anyway?

Consumer Reports weighs heavily on features and initial quality but it seems to me their ratings care not at all about longevity.

Well we can’t just stay home forever. Trying to plan an eventual cross country parks and cities trip.
And I can’t figure out what the truth is about San Francisco. Is it the most beautiful and awesome place in the world where only the richest of the rich can afford to live? Or is it littered with needles and excrement, full of strung out homeless criminals who smash your car windows twice a week even if there’s nothing valuable in there at all? Or is it somehow both?

Would you bring a family with six kids under age 11 to visit San Francisco?

Really? I thought we were already about 70 or 80% of the way to self driving cars, and I figured identifying, picking up and moving laundry to a hamper would be of similar difficulty, but with far less danger if errors happen.
