There is a type of 1970s tape dispenser called the “3M Model C-15 Decor Scotch” that is slightly radioactive. This office staple contains thorium bearing monazite sand mixed with epoxy resin in its base.☢️
Manufacturers added the dense sand as a ballast to give the dispenser enough weight to stay firmly in place while pulling tape. Eventually, a hospital technician in Alabama ended up discovering the radioactivity sometime between the 1970s-1980s while performing a routine radiological survey in his office. One example from a 55 gallon drum of similar dispensers that the U.S. Army was preparing to dispose of as “radioactive waste” was sent to Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU), where the monazite sand was finally identified as the source.
Independent measurements with various radiation detector models can vary in readings, typically I have seen them show readings from 100CPM to even 1,000CPM. The radiation levels are typical of naturally occurring thorium in monazite and pose no meaningful health risk during normal use.

Getting her pants off of her legs is always a challenge. This would be the only part that's animated. I got curious and wanted to animate a character interacting with clothing, so why not use Zoe? Tip here: ko-fi.com/kimjimagery #animation #stripgame

Just about 17 years ago, a couple coworkers and I decided to put a decommissioned Dell PowerEdge 2650 on the roof. Why? Because we were curious, and it was to become scrap metal. We did absolutely nothing to weatherproof it, beyond setting it on two bricks, facing it away from the prevailing wind, putting a drip loop in the cabling, and using fiber networking so we wouldn't fry anything if it got zapped. Ran Linux, plotting its own sensor data via ipmitool, and presenting it via a web page served from the box itself. We put load on it using SETI@Home. It ran for about two months up there, even surviving 6" of snow, until a really gnarly thunderstorm drove water into the SCSI backplane and it shorted out. Continued running for a few more weeks, though, until not being able to write to disk was finally too much. Did not come back from a power cycle. Its hostname was Tevye, of course.
