Oh yeah. Glass bottles with the neck filled with cream. You could pour
the cream out, or you could stick in a butter knife and stir to make it
"homogenized".

Our house used to have a door for coal, but not for milk. We had milk
delivered until recently, but they gave us a picnic style cooler to leave on
the porch for it. Glass bottles. No pogs though.

One of my boyhood homes had a compartment in the wall between the kitchen and
the front porch. Once or twice a week, milk, cream, butter, and other dairy
products would show up, and we'd just take it out and stick it in the fridge.
There was a clip on the door that held an ordering slip. We'd just check the
items we wanted and viola! they were there.
I did a street view on the old house, and that compartment is still there; 60+
years later.

I am actually old enough to remember milk delivery. The milk could

That's funny, I live in a neighborhood that had many homes built in
the 19-teens and 1920's. Most of them have doors for ice delivery,
milk, and other things. What was once old is new again.

But it won't actually pick up the pizza piece and put it in your
mouth? How are you supposed to eat with a game controller in
your hand?
Isn't this one of the units which spectacularly caught fire and
was burning on a sidewalk a couple months ago?

Now robots will bring them pizza? I occasionally delivered pizzas
when I was in college, it’s a challenge to make several
deliveries without the pizza getting cold, I don’t see how a 4
mph robot can do it. Plus it can’t climb stairs.
I like this part:
“building owners may eventually decide to include a separate door
just for the robots, much like cat owner would include a door
flap for their pet”
