    My teacup is radioactive, it has a uranium paint from like the 30s

    It’s also safe to use

    So how radioactive is this “Olympic swimming pool” of radioactive water?

          Please, don’t drink from this teacup. It’s really not safe.

              Fair enough. I just got alarmed by your reaction to the video I linked. Take care

                To get enough energy from the plate for a single low quality xray image the dude had to wait weeks with the items literally pressed against it

                  Totally right, it’s radiation is very low. And he wouldn’t eat from it.
