Relying on for profit corporations to do what is best for the human body is a fool’s errand.

Strong consumer labelling laws and regulation is the primary way to combat it. Encouraging consumers to actually read the packaging is also required.

It is not always easy for consumers in any country to tell whether a product contains added sugar, and how much is present, based on nutritional information printed on packaging alone.

That seems like the problem that actually needs solving.

“I’ll tell you how I feel about school, Jerry: It’s a waste of time. Bunch of people runnin’ around bumpin’ into each other, got a guy up front says, ‘Two plus two,’ and the people in the back say, ‘Four.’ Then the bell rings and they give you a carton of milk and a piece of paper that says you can go take a dump or somethin’. I mean, it’s not a place for smart people, Jerry. I know that’s not a popular opinion, but that’s my two cents on the issue.” — Rick

Looks like this only works for bulk haulage and wouldn’t be compatible with intermodal freight (shipping containers)

It’s concerning that you think “just buy new stuff” is reasonable and that Windows should only work on new hardware out of the box.

Good guy GOG wants you to actually own your own games, forever.

Doesn’t a JP only certify the copy, agreeing that the original exists and they have sighted it.

I don’t think showing them a copy will be much good on its own.

It reads like they have their family held hostage.

I’d guess it’s a cat and mouse game with Google to keep it functional.

I like the pipedlink bot and the issue seems to be resolved now. Pipedlink bot works for users without having to run a particular os or plugin/add-on.
