There is much truth in jest, as the saying goes

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.
Hatshepsut@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Alice Walton’s prescription for a ‘broken’ US health system0·27 天前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.
Hatshepsut@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Not promoting suicide. But my question is can someone with onset dementia and hire a person to put them down like a rabid dog? Or do I have to still be with it to jump off a building or bridge?0·1 个月前Very sorry to hear this. I would feel the same as you, were it me. You didn’t mention but are you in the US? If so check which states have MAiD (medical assistance in dying)
Hatshepsut@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Kodak cautions there's 'substantial doubt' about its ability to stay in business0·2 个月前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.
Those socks look like dyed TEDs (high compression socks)

Hatshepsut@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•what unbiased media sources do you use?0·9 个月前Associated Press and Reuters.
Rigatoni? And I agree!
Thanks for the info. I never looked into it but glad I know that now. I bought a Sig P365XL and later got a 12-gauge (not sawed off). Love the pistol.
House was broken into while I was at work. They’d gone through the house and messed it up a bit. But when I got to the bedroom, they’d flipped the mattress and taken the pillow cases off. Couldn’t sleep in that bed for maybe six months. Slept on the couch. Even had my bow next to me too for a while.
Cop who showed up told me to get a sawed off shotgun and/or a big dog. Ended up moving 8 months later bc I never felt safe again.
Sorry about the car. That happened to me too, long time ago. We were walking out from work at night on Black Friday and saw them in my car. I caught and tackled one of them and beat the shit out of him. Other 2 the cops got.
Waiting for someone to do a slow mo version of the vid with a soundtrack. Alas, I suck at such things.
