These bots can be helpful for the elderly or those with disabilities. It’s probably more effective to legislate them at the municipal level.
Please contact me at @otter@lemmy.ca for any urgent issues.

I’ve seen students/applicants there make the same joke 😄

There should be a link, unless its not loading correctly for you?
Here if is


Not yet, here is the open issue


I had the same issue, I set it to 110% on my phone. It would be cool if someone put together a guide on common configurations to help it match other apps.


There is disagreement and outdated advice on what to do / not to do. First aid is time-sensitive so having a discussion about updated guidelines can be helpful :)

See the History section here for some controversies. From what I remember, there is disagreement on whether he asked for the name to be changed or if institutions changed it first
I didn’t intend for it to sound like that, and reading my comment again I see that I should have expanded on it further. I’m hoping my posting history can show where I stand on issues like this.
What I should have said was that delivery services can be helpful for the elderly or those with disabilities, and that legislation on delivery services can help us improve access to those without the harms of these current robots.
For what it’s worth, we don’t have these robots where I am, so I didn’t know how bad it was. In person, I’ve only seen a few that were sitting around our university plaza last fall. I looked online, and it looks like we don’t currently have any here. I will keep what you’ve mentioned in mind when talking about these bots moving forward, especially if our local politicians are going to be deciding on them in the near future.
To expand on where my thinking was coming from, I have read first person accounts from people who can’t leave their homes easily, and also how existing delivery programs are helpful but don’t have the capacity to meet everyone that needs it: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/seniors-grocery-app-delivery-anjel-vancouver-1.4938035
Often with these discussions, automation is brought up as a way to bridge the gaps that current public funding can’t fulfill.
I also recently read about how some cities have a thriving bike/scooter sharing program, while others are suffering from mismanagement, excessive prices, and chaos; and how it came down to whether the programs were started as a public project or if they were led by tech companies. So in my earlier comment, I was tying information to this story and saying that regulated and/or publicly managed delivery options might be a better thing to focus energy on
