This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

We thought the rider fell off or something and it was going to crash. Then it turned and kept mowing. Park Roomba!

Going to need you to lay down in front of the mower to see if it stops.

The public demands to know.

It's more likely remote controlled. There's probably a guy with a controller near by. They've been around for a couple of decades now, but are generally only used where an angle is too steep or too close to a highway or cliff face.
