My grandpa rents some of his fields out to an amish guy who also rents a lot of other fields in the area. The amish in our area are known to be pretty loose with their rules so my grandpa wasn't surprised when the guy showed up with combine harvester but he was kind of surprised with how new it was. My grandpa asked him how he could drive a combine when they weren't allowed to drive cars. To which the amish guy responded, "Well, I don't actually drive the combine; it drives itself. I just sit in it."

Most based Amish dude I've ever heard about.

Jewish people on Sabbat vibes.

Sounds like the Amish would be ok with a robotic vacuum as long as it charged itself from a solar panel.

Quite possibly. A lot of their electricity aversion stems from avoidance of relying on an electric grid owned and maintained by outsiders.

(Which to be fair is also pretty based)
