Does anyone still use scruboards and clotheslines for laundry? What about only using the sink for dishes (that one is a bit more common)? I feel automation already hit the bad things she is talking about.

They've tackled part of the process. You still need to clear the table yourself, get rid of the large solid food scraps and saturated fats, load/empty the dishwasher. You then have things that need scrubbing, or material that can't handle heat well, and those need to be cleaned manually.

I have a dishwasher, but find that I rarely use it because the time it saves is negligible compared to manual washing. The only time it's helpful is after something like a dinner party where there are a lot more dishes than usual so space is the limiting factor.
