A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Auto manufacturing.
I used to work at a candy factory where most of the machines that made the packaging were from the '50's or earlier, but had been Frankenstein'd with all sorts of modern sensors and stuff to maximize efficiency. Anyways, there was this one machine that was fascinating. It was from the 30's I believe but all it did was make small boxes from flat paper stock and it was originally designed to be hand loaded, but they had this robot arm set up that looked like the one in the OG Jurassic Park movie that flipped the eggs basically handing it paper. The arm was controlled by a dusty ass Windows 95 PC that had one job, the robot arm program. This was like 4 years ago.
