    Russian soldiers who occupied Chernobyl only have a year to live, Ukrainian minister says
    https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-04-11/russians-stole-radioactive-substance-chernobyl/100981372
    Russian forces who occupied the Chernobyl nuclear plant stole potentially deadly radioactive substances from research laboratories, Ukraine's State Agency for Managing the Exclusion Zone says. Moscow's troops seized the defunct power plant on the first day of their invasion of Ukraine on February 24. They occupied the highly radioactive zone for over a month, before retreating on March 31. The agency said on Facebook that Russian soldiers pillaged two laboratories in the area. It said the Russians entered a storage area of the Ecocentre research base and stole 133 highly radioactive substances

    As Climate Fears Mount, Some Are Relocating Within the US
    https://www.wired.com/story/as-climate-fears-mount-some-are-relocating-within-the-us/?utm_source=pocket-newtab
    At first, the Ashland area of southern Oregon seemed like a great place for Mich and Forest Brazil to raise their kids: It had natural beauty, plenty of open space, and a family-friendly atmosphere. But after they moved there from the San Francisco Bay Area in 2015, high summer temperatures, water shortages, and wildfire smoke became regular features of their lives, forcing them to wear face masks well before the Covid-19 pandemic, and leading them to question whether the area was the right place for them.

    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/apr/10/chris-smalls-amazon-union-staten-island
    Meanwhile, Amazon, which spent over $4m to stop Smalls’ efforts, escalated its own tactics. In addition to calling Smalls “not smart or articulate” and characterizing pro-union organizers as “thugs”, Amazon had Smalls and other co-organizers arrested for trespassing while they were dropping off food and union materials.

    Tesla returns were supposed to be easy, but this customer has been waiting more than 2 years for a Model X refund
    https://www.cnbc.com/2022/04/09/tesla-customer-has-been-waiting-more-than-2-years-for-a-model-x-refund.html
    Danny Roman bought a new Tesla Model X and took delivery of the car on Feb. 28, 2020. Three days later, he informed the company he was returning the electric SUV under the seven-day, no-questions-asked policy Tesla CEO Elon Musk was touting at that time. Today, more than two years since Tesla took possession of the car, Roman still doesn’t have his refund or access to the vehicle, which had a price tag around $116,000 overall, including various options and fees.

    Spreadsheets Are Hot—and Cranking Out Complex Code

    Even funnier, some spreadsheet users don’t even realize you can do math inside them. When Robinson and his wife hired a contractor to build their house, the guy showed them a spreadsheet of costs–but then whipped out a calculator to tote up the figures manually. When Robinson showed him how the spreadsheet could do it automatically, he was floored.

    https://indianexpress.com/article/trending/trending-globally/murdered-rappers-body-used-as-prop-at-funeral-ceremony-netizens-find-it-unsettling-7853949/
    A funeral ceremony for murdered American rapper Markelle Morrow, popularly known as Goonew, is being seen as a creepy event after fans had a rude awakening that his body was used as a prop on stage. Photos and videos from the event hosted at a nightclub in Washington DC have left netizens freaking out online. A dance party called “The Last Show” was hosted at a club, at bliss, on Sunday to honour Goonew, who was killed last month after being shot at in a District Heights parking lot. The venue itself left people baffled and many said they were “feeling sick” after discovering that it was his embalmed body on the stage wearing designer clothes and a crown. The event was organised by the rapper’s family and friends as his going-away party. Videos posted by several attendees on social media showed people singing and dancing as the singer’s body was on display.

    Sandy Hook parents sue Alex Jones again, accuse him of trying to ‘shield assets’ in defamation cases
    https://www.newstimes.com/news/article/Sandy-Hook-parents-sue-Alex-Jones-again-accuse-17068124.php
    NEWTOWN — Four Sandy Hook parents who won two defamation suits against Alex Jones in Texas last year have sued him, claiming that he “transferred millions of dollars from his fortune” to shield his assets from them. “During the defamation cases, the Jones debtors doomsday prepped for these eventual judgments by diverting assets,” reads a lawsuit filed this week in 200th District Court in Austin, Texas by the parents of two children who were slain in the Sandy Hook shooting. “This fact is only confirmed by the jaw-dropping amount in transfers the Jones debtors made during the defamation cases. In 2021 alone, the Jones debtors transferred from Free Speech Systems tens of millions more than it cost to operate that year,” the lawsuit reads. “These transfers started just four months after the last appellate court decision was issued that allowed the defamation cases to proceed.”
