Default OT. Dominos Delivers

Dominos has a driverless little buggy to deliver food in Houston.
https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/12/tech/dominos-pizza-delivery-robot/index.html
There's a Sieman's commercial at the start. Maybe 5 seconds.
There's a mask wearing guy at the end waiting for the buggy.

How long before someone figures how to hold them up en route?

Or you go out Sunday morning and find overturned buggies, minus pizza,
along the streets.

I just want to know the master code so I can take the pizzas,

If it runs over your dog, do you get free pizza for life?

I'd rather have the dog. Is Dominos any good, never had it.


It depends what you're used to. I think it's pretty lousy, but there
are locations where it might be the best you can get.

I'm no connoisseur. After all, I eat my own cooking. Casey's pizza isn't bad.

This.

It's ok in a pinch, but for fast food pizza, I'm bias to Jets or Hungry
Howies. Otherwise, there are several restaurant styles I prefer more so.

https://www.clovecart.com/pizza-ovens-1

The original oven has vestiges of a pedal powered scheme but with a 2
ton wood fired oven that didn't work well. They got better over the
years but the pies used to look more like a map of South America than a
circle. They're good though and had the mobile popup thing down long
before the covid crap. Also, they sell by the slice. Back in the day I
could inhale a whole pie but now a piece is fine.

Nice. When I make a pizza, it's never round. More oblong, maybe
with a short peninsula.

OTOH, two oblongs (his and hers pizzas) fit on a rectangular pizza
stone pretty well.

It isn't all that small. It weighs close to 2,100 pounds empty.

Maybe it has some sort of sirens or bright lights to activate if someone is trying to
tip it. My first thought was a set up similar to electric fences farmers use for livestock.

The robot could contain the Covid virus. Always safe to wear the mask
around it.
