It hadn't even occurred to me that working on OSS outside of work hours on your own equipment might be against policy and get you fired.

Is this perhaps only a US thing? I've never heard of that in the UK / Europe.


That is incredible to read. It's one of the things which makes you stop thinking about all the awful things in the world and realise just how incredible modern science and medicine is.



Interesting to note that almost all of the salaries from 2023 - 2024 dropped by quite a substantial amount.


Give it ago, for as little as £20[0] you can get a Raspberry pit kit which would let you build something similar to a micro mouse, ( I'm not sure if the actually raspberry pi is included/required.)

That's interesting, I actually have two Pi Zero's laying around I bought ages ago for another project. Though getting this kit shipped to Russia might range from a non-issue to challenging and expensive.

edit: yeah it's not on the list of countries they ship to which means if I were really insistent on buying it I'd have to use a mail forwarder which would cost like 2x the kit itself


Hey, this worked for me in Factorio (trains instead), I'm sure it could work here as well!


Used you chaps for my previous rent, honestly very good service but does depend on having a good relationship with the landlord.


Mitenmit, if you're the author, could I suggest some keybindings such as control enter to save and move to the next input to reduce the amount of clicking? Or perhaps tab will move you forward.


jackdh, I like your suggestion, I will implement it :)


Check the prices on that, it can get exorbitant


The site could probably charge extra for better quality results.

Perhaps they could split it into a free version using open street data, and a paid version with actual transit routes and other relevant data (tunnels could be marked as 0% sun coverage if they are able to find a data source for it)


Well it's better a window than the front falling off.


Lol, I still don't know if that interview is a comedy sketch or real.


It's a satirical interview about a real event: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirki_(tanker)

They (the comedians) posted similar comedic takes on politics for many years; eg this one about Australia's energy market https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ELaBzj7cn14


On the off chance that this is genuine, it’s a sketch. A very famous comedy duo. Unfortunately one passed away a while ago.


If a wave hits your plane the front falling off is the least of your concerns.
