Unfortunately he passed away shortly after [1] but your point stands.

I'm from Poland and I get the following message:

"403 ERROR The request could not be satisfied. The Amazon CloudFront distribution is configured to block access from your country. We can't connect to the server for this app or website at this time. There might be too much traffic or a configuration error. Try again later, or contact the app or website owner. If you provide content to customers through CloudFront, you can find steps to troubleshoot and help prevent this error by reviewing the CloudFront documentation."

Your site works fine when checked via anonymous proxies located in different European countries.

Not sure if that's intentional or a misconfiguration, just letting you know.

Twitch Turbo [1] is the closest to what you're asking for.

I find it mind-boggling I had less difficulty docking at the ISS than landing a fighter jet in DCS World.

On the other hand, being able to stop the module and zero all unnecessary movement before proceeding to dock is something I can't do with aircraft on Earth.

Subcontractor for one of Polish mobile carriers here. Around 5pm we got a memo to work remotely starting tomorrow until further notice. Until now the company has been rather reluctant to embrace remote work to the full extent (maximum 1 day per week with quite a complicated procedure to go through to get approved). I've never worked remotely for this company so this is going to be an interesting time.

The closest to the ideal I've known so far is Koken [1]. Sadly I can't see any development or maintenance updates since 2017 and it's not open source [2].

Re:Show HN: JavaScript plugin to build 360-degree images on Monday April 15, 2019 @01:58PM (#19667294)
I recently built a similar plugin [1] inspired by a bug report I had to resolve at work. Back then I had hard time trying to find a good open source solution and this one here is nearly perfect. It's a little bit sad I didn't see it coming earlier.
