Amazon is bricking its Astro business robots less than a year after launch

LOL, this thing was originally intended to be a home robot. I figured they were trying to pivot to business because they were having trouble with the final polish on home navigation edge cases and convincing people to drop $1750 on a less-snarky R2D2.

wtf advantage does this thing have over just having security cameras? if i was a burglar i'd look for houses that had one of these just so i could break in and smash it. i wouldn't even steal anything
