    Sheesh. After only a few slipups with knives, I take dangerous stuff seriously. I’d be nervous around even unpowered industrial equipment that could kill me! I’ll never understand people who can sherk safety protocols of all things, but then the people pushing the rules seldom care if the unproductive rules like safety are followed… At least when you see news like this.

      It’s crazy to me because LOTO only takes a few minutes in my experience. But anything to save time I guess

        I cannot wait until humanity is rid of capitalist brain… Five minutes of saved time ignoring safety protocol is DEFINITELY worth more than decades of a nerd’s life who’s interested in mechanics/robotics/etc. … freaking insane people, all of them.

      Having been near an industrial robot arm, it does make me nervous even if it’s powered off. It’s a giant hunk of steel that has the strength to probably lift up a car and more, nevermind crush your bones.
