Why create new news community? I'm tired of getting banned by crazy lemmy moderators under made up reasons for posting news articles (likely reddit subversive operation).
Also most of news communities are empty - this one will be full of content.
So i'm now creating my own community. everyone welcome, let's tear reddit down together.

In comparison the limit in Germany is at 20 mSv per year and 400 mSv per life for work related exposure.

10 mSv is equivalent to 1 rem (why do americans always insist on using other units than the rest of the world? We replaced rem with the Sievert in the 70s/80s)
