@stux i was hoping it would also serve a coffee in the end
@stux the way they tap off the little (huge) brush before they put it away honestly I can't get the carrots off my chopping board and into the pan with 20% falling on the floor.
Surgeon at work!
@stux my favourite bit is the nudges on the panels in the stack when moved. Also, the sweeping up of soil on the far side of the path at the end.
Yes, technically impressive but a real focus to doing it with an amazing attention to detail impresses me the most.
WOW!! An artisan at work! 8- O
I find the preparation & layout impressive! Using the protection panels *prior* to digging and using a nearby space to place the various tool-heads, which go *back* to their respective *spots* !!
The operator has a deft hand using the various tool-heads *and* the pincer claws!
I particularly like the diamond pattern for compacting soil around the access cover!
Thanks for sharing!

@stux
That operator has skills. That was a joy to watch.
@stux that person probably goes home and cooks dinner without getting out of their digger
@stux Wow! That's seriously impressive skills!
@stux Never thought I would appreciate something like this, but wow, that is some serious precision
@stux Impressive!
@stux That is skill. Wow.
@stux anyone else hearing
"I am a dwarf, and I'm digging a hole
Diggy diggy hole, diggy diggy hole
I am a dwarf, and I'm digging a hole
Diggy diggy hole, digging a hole"
@stux more like an artist
@stux So satisfying! Love to see someone so talented at work, (almost) no matter what it is is.
@stux so elegant! Thoroughly impressed!!
@stux so satisfying to watch!
@stux This is artistry. Wish I could show this to my dad, who taught me as a boy to drive a small excavator.
@stux ...instead, I showed his grandson.
@stux Fantastic. I was waiting for them to roll the sod back on... in place.
@stux the operator has a light touch and fantastic hoe skills
@stux@mstdn.social
Kwalität ist unsere Schangse!
@stux
I will never not be impressed by excavator operators.
@stux I could watch his person work all day.
thanks, @stux!
this is soooo soothing, isn't it, @MikeMayak?
@IAmDannyBoling Hmmm ... Can't open it!
Really? The animated gif is playing for me right now. Check again and refresh the page. Maybe it was just temporary. If it still fails then I'll save it as a video and send it to you directly. :)
@stux that is really cool. You can hardly see where the hole was let alone where he worked. So clean. And the way he puts his gear away. I bet his house is spotless. Actually, is it a man or a woman doing this?
@stux that is a work of ART.
@stux I want to be a digger driver when I grow up
@blueorangeblue @stux me too. One piece of machinery I never got a go off on the farm.
@stux Awesome. If that were my job I'd be out of bed every morning like a shot.
@stux Is there a video at original speed?
@linguistgoneforeign @stux Exactly why i ask.
@stux you see a “professional at work”, I see a 5-person team losing a day’s work to 1 person and a machine
(I’m joking. But I genuinely find it interesting and funny how attitudes towards this kinda thing change over time)
@Sector9 @witewulf @stux I see one person who (like everyone) should have a 5 hour work week, because we have the capability not to need everybody working 40-60 hours a week doing bullshit. We don't have to make up more stuff to do. Just meet our needs more efficiently, mostly with machines, then fucking STOP.
@dalias @Sector9 @stux so you'd be happy if 80% (I'm assuming a 40hr work week) of your work (and pay) was taken away because a machine (regardless of it's perceived ability) was doing it?
Or are you saying that 80% of the work you do is pointless and you shouldn’t be doing it (and being paid for it) in the first place?
@witewulf @Sector9 @stux I'm fortunate enough to be able to survive, with varying degrees of comfort that aren't great, without doing the bullshit stuff. I'm saying well over 80% of "work" done, as a whole, is bullshit, largely in the form of maintaining systems to account for and police who's allowed to benefit from the actual work that's done.
@witewulf @dalias @Sector9 @stux wages could be increased to allow people to work reduced time and still make a living wage. In theory this is what technological advances should be doing whenever they improve productivity. In practice historically improvements in automation increase or hold steady working hours because its viewed as a way to double profits instead of reducing work hours.
@stux I want to hire that person to do my taxes.
@zeitverschreib @stux I would hire that person to perform my appendectomy!
@stux If Da Vinci were alive today, this would be his medium.
@stux That’s beautiful. I could watch stuff like that all day.
@Ronnie mesmerizing huh \
@stux People may hate on Meta for their prying ways but that kind of content is basically my whole Instagram.
@stux That truck would be in flames by the end of the video if I tried that.
