More Perfect Union did a video with Consumer Reports about this study

Bonus Lina Khan at the end.

Fuck these companies. As a consumer I feel more and more like someone existing merely to be bled dry by all these greedy mfers.

Can’t wait to hear what John Oliver has to say about this

lol AOL is still a thing?

I’ve also heard this called ‘isostatic adjustment’ Post-glacial rebound

Not a religious or spiritual sort, but from the first time I saw him during the election as VP candidate, I truly sensed evil. Good riddance

The old joke: Know what Oracle stands for? One Raging Asshole Called Larry Ellison

There is much truth in jest, as the saying goes

And Fox News

Epstein’s bday book in pictures

That’s the best I can find rn on mobile.

Here’s the House Press release with links to files but they’re raw files, not pdfs.

The world’s wealthiest woman has a blunt diagnosis of the sickness she has set out to cure. “Health care is going to break and bankrupt American companies, and America itself, if we don’t change it,” Alice Walton says in a forceful Southern drawl.

Ah yes, of course. This has nothing to do with helping people get care or promoting things to keep them healthy so they don’t fall ill, etc. How twisted.

This reads like a PR press release written to present itself as philanthropy when it’s nothing more than corporate strategy designed to keep the have-nots from bankrupting billionaires. Fuck her.

But I’m sure they have all of ours

Really sad, but as someone said, they had their chance at digital and blew it.

Along those lines, they were also interested in:

Neutron imaging

Starting decades ago, Kodak had an interest in neutrons, subatomic particles that can be used to determine the makeup of a given material or to create an image of it without damaging it.

A steady stream of neutrons is needed for these purposes. Kodak used small research reactors, including one at Cornell University, and possessed a dollop of californium-252, a radioactive isotope that endlessly sheds neutrons.

But it wanted a more potent in-house system, so in 1974 it acquired a californium neutron flux multiplier, known as a CFX. Small plates of highly enriched uranium multiplied the neutron flow from a tiny californium core.

Kodak used it to check chemicals and other materials for impurities, Filo said. It also was used for tests related to neutron radiography, an imaging technique.

The device was not much larger than a refrigerator and, in the one available photo, looked vaguely like Robby the Robot from a 1950s science fiction movie. To house it, Kodak dug a cavity below the basement level of Building 82, part of the company’s research complex along Lake Avenue.

Did you know? Kodak Park had a nuclear reactor
