The roomba automatically updates the map everytime it cleans. Normally I leave the door to the backyard closed. But today I forgot. As it was cleaning near the gate (vertical red line at the edge of room 10 & 11) it saw the backyard. The app has no way to delete a room. Very mildly infuriating indeed

JP’s substack on leaving X today is 😚👌🏻

“..because Elon Musk is an annoying dweeb, and I simply find X too tacky to continue with… the whole thing feels slimy now… all these things feel downstream of Musk’s slime trail… like things that came directly from him scooting his ass across the platform.”
