The video was made by a German. It is intended to symbolise an excessively over-engineered solution to a problem, which is a common stereotype of German engineering. permalink fedilink source parent [–] in_the_dark_forest@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago I believe it is a reference to this video: https://youtu.be/m74zazYPwkY?is=xOXt6rlqpbZpZarI permalink fedilink source parent
