A large warehouse like building sits on the corner. People bring in large baskets of assorted laundry, as if it were a public laundromat. In a way it is...
The clothes are fed singularly onto a long conveyer belt, where a sensor reads the RFID tags imbedded in the item. Various devices seperate
the items onto different lines, much like the sorting system of postal services. The items are sorted by color, wash cycle, and specific instructions left by the customer.
The clothes are then lumped together by type, and are plunged into a large vat full of hot soapy water. The clothes continue on their journey, drying here, bleaching there, until they are finally redirected into customer specific baskets. The baskets are then directed into the storage area, where rows upon endless rows of baskets wait for their respective owners.
When the customer arrives to pick up their clothes, they swipe their claim ticket, check the bill, then swipe their credit card. Once validated, a robotic arm eagerly rushes to retieve it's master's fresh laundry. Another happy customer walks out of the auto launro.
All unidentifiable items found adrift are donated to charity.

Alright. It's about time we all just stop
wearing clothing. I'd give you a plus if
this was just a giant vat everyone
through their goverment issued clothes
into. (or if all unidentifiable items were
recycled into free fancy napkins for rich
people) |

I'd give you an even bigger plus if you'd offer some extra insight as to the meaning of your second sentence. |

croissant, but im curious as to the
affordability and how long it would take
for your load to get through and for you
to find your load and get home with it. |

Clothes aren't quite useless, especially in colder climates. If nothing else, they allow expression of individuality. |
|

This would provide vast savings on energy and water, hopefully covering the cost of manufacture. There's no need to search for your load. It is automatically delivered to you upon request. The entire system is automated, allowing you to quickly dump your items and pick them up later. |

I propose genetic modification that
grows thick fat like whales have on our
bodies eliminating need for clothing.
Individuality? Tattoos. |

Most Americans already have the former...the latter tends to be rather permanent, unless you utilize programmable inks. |

That summary sounds mighty suspicious. |

If a few of the ideas on this site were actually implemented, then RHID tags would be on near enough anything that moves. |
