My mom got my son one of these, it was literally just a slop machine. Thankfully it was also a Bluetooth speaker so you can play audio books instead.
One of the nasty little secrets of decarbonization is that once we stop using fossil fuels, slavery is likely to return in many parts of the world as we lose the capacity to prevent it globally through overwhelming military force, and the economic incentive to prevent it through other forms of energy.
[Admin mode] Down for about half an hour. Not really down, but I had to make a change to the electrical for the access point, which obviously knocked down DNS, and I have to manually update DNS now.
The electrical change is a sort of funny thing -- it was already set up, but then one day the Internet went down and we had to reboot the access point, and it's too well hidden. I moved everything around so there's an easy way to restart it at eye level for the future.

tbh most companies do exactly that now, because the real estate part of the business is more important to some of the companies than the food part.

This video discusses two behaviors of drops of liquid. One is that that drops of liquid under a vacuum do not splash. Another is that drops of liquid with a charge do not splash.
We live in a world where we've been told since children that space is the final frontier; Here we can see that drops of liquid, something we live around every single day, has attributes that have only been discovered and documented in the past 20 years. The vacuum thing was documented in 2005, and the electricity thing was documented this year. There are no final frontiers we've discovered yet. Even the mundane in our lives have undiscovered properties.
Some people want everyone to think the world has nothing left to teach us, that there's nothing left to learn, that we know everything. It's a lie. There's everything left to discover, everything left to learn, everything left to explore.

The fediverse is the last bastion of a great tradition of Internet freedom.
That's a place worth fighting for.

"before you watch this video: what do the US presidency and bedtime with bonzo have in common?"

How cold is it out? Depending on your answer I can tell you if it's 5 1/2 or 3 1/4 inch floppy.
One thing people don't talk about is that in the 70s and 80s houses might have been less expensive, but money was way way more expensive. Would you put a house on a credit card? Because for a chunk of the 70s and 80s, your mortgage was at the same levels of interest as credit cards today. You might end up with the same house payment back then as you did today, but the bank got the bulk of the money instead of the buyer.
A common accounting trick is called the "rule of 72". You take 72, divide it by your interest rate (or your rate of return for an investment), and you have how many years it takes to pay the entire purchase price in interest, or for your investment to double. At 18% interest, you'd be paying the entire cost of the home in interest every 4 years. In the 1970s, minimum wage was about a dollar an hour, so that's a lot of money to come up with for later gains.
Let's say I buy the house and pay the bank for seven houses worth of interest, and I have this house that quadrupled in value. And? What do I do with that? If I sell the house I have to go buy another house, so it isn't like I'm rich, I've just got this asset that I can't get rid of without getting another one.
People hate on the boomers, but in reality they were already dealing with the fall of the post-war boom. Wages stagnated through their entire lives, cost of living exploded, and a few got super rich but most were just blue collar schlubs trying to make ends meet. People go "The boomers sent away all the manufacturing jobs", but they don't realize that those jobs were the ones the boomers lost directly -- it isn't that they never had them, it's that they had them and then had to deal with the mass layoffs as industry left the west.
The crazy thing I see now is people saying "Oh, they had it so easy in the 2000s" -- for those of us who lived through the 2000s we know that's a load of crap, but that's what people are saying! In 2050 will they be saying the same about 2025?

Cesium 137 is commonly used in radioactive measurements such as density or level. Not saying that's where this came from, but it's one place it could come from.
I would expect shrimp to be heavily radiated to meet FDA guidelines for biological safety, but I'd expect an isotope with more energetic particles to be used for that purpose, because food radiation tends to be insanely lethally powerful.
Given that, I think it's more likely that something odd happened with a measurement device than with the sanitation equipment.

Anyone who's ever dealt with one of these little shits knows full well that they have the biggest Napoleon complex in the western world.
