Good lord, I love the understatedness of this comment.

It’s a Geiger counter. It’s cheaper than having an oscilloscope, which wouldn’t be “understated” either.

Do YOU have a geiger counter on your desk?

Well, I just ordered one, which was not a thing I expected to do when I woke up today.

We'll see if it actually ships; seems lots of people have the same idea right now.

The seem to be like £100 on amazon.

Yeah, but the fact that a Ukranian actually has one. I was going to make an "In Soviet Russia..." style joke, but a quick reading of the room suggested not good timing.

Commenter literally said “far from Ukraine”. What are you talking about?

oh, you're right. i totally missed the word far on initial read. totally changes the everything.

To be fair, I am around 500 km from the westernmost border, so not that far in American terms. We were affected by the Chernobyl disaster.
