          There’s also a 2024 show remake of Time Bandits.

          From Taika Waititi! Although I think they gave this the old “one season then cancelled” bs. Yep. Canceled by Apple.

          Pffftt.

          We need public funding for shows and movies.

          The amount of great shows Apple has canceled compared to the amount of weird niche BBC scifi I’ve seen done several seasons just to close out one storyline or something. And they get to try things which Hollywood/American corporate producers would never go for.

      Danielewski is a nut. (In a good way)

      What a unique writer stretching the medium.

      Need to read house of leaves.

    Also note the path it took vs this scan of the area. It was like ‘oh OK I am just going to turn around and go back home’. This Roomba probably didn’t want to go to narnia.

    Should try measuring it from the outside… just to be sure

      When I’ve experienced this, it’s usually been because either the robot got stuck (was spinning its wheels but thought it was moving) or got stuck (behind or under something, so it thought it was traveling but just was going in circles).

        Wouldn’t the path continue, then? In this pic, it looks like two hard turns and back into the room.

          I don’t claim to understand the mapping program of any of these robots.

          However, for mine, my interpretation is that the map shows what it sees (or thinks it sees) rather than necessarily where it’s been. If where it is isn’t where it thinks it is and it sees an empty space ahead, it will think it saw a room where there was none.

          I couldn’t say if that’s what’s happening here, but it is what has happened to me.

    There’s probably a switch (or series of switches) on the wall which activates the door to open up that part of the map.
