What Hacker News says?

  1. The kettlebell in this [1] image looks a bit like the one [2] that was recalled due to radioactivity. It's probably a different one, but I thought I should mention it anyway. Better safe than sorry. [1] https://greenlightning.eu/diy/hacking-ikea-furniture/images/... [2] https://www.produktwarnung.eu/2025/09/12/rueckruf-erhoehte-s...
