Submission + - More Than Half Of What Americans Eat Is Ultra-Processed (studyfinds.com) 2
fjo3 writes: A group of leading nutrition scientists, food policy lawyers, and public health experts has released what may be the most actionable blueprint yet for tackling one of the biggest threats to American health: ultra-processed food. Released in May 2026 by Healthy Eating Research, the report offers a concrete definition of what ultra-processed food is and a ranked list of policy options lawmakers could act on right now.
More than half of calories eaten by American adults come from ultra-processed foods, industrial products containing few or no real whole-food ingredients and made with additives that keep them cheap, shelf-stable, and highly appealing. For kids, that figure climbs even higher. A recent study found that of 651 baby and toddler food products sold in the eight largest grocery stores in North Carolina, 71% were classified as ultra-processed.

Submission + - New "Dirty Frag" Linux Kernel Vulnerability Could Lead to Root Escalation
hcs_$reboot writes: Linux administrators had barely caught their breath from Copy Fail (CVE-2026-31431) which was patched just days ago when researcher Hyunwoo Kim (@v4bel) dropped another one.
The disclosure went public on May 8, 2026, after a third party broke the coordinated embargo, forcing Kim to release the full exploit before any distribution had issued a patch. There are currently no CVE identifiers and no fixes for any affected distribution.

Synthesized music, CGI... all initially rejected.
But AI is somewhat different in that it directly threatens the income of the entire film industry.
Once AI has advanced further, no one will want these “physical” actors who perform more or less well in films with questionable scripts.
