specifically, compare your wording with the specific wording from the regulation:

Maximum levels

Food with levels of contaminants higher than those specified in Annex I to the regulation may not be sold. These maximum levels cover the edible part of food and also apply to compound, processed, dried or diluted foods, taking into account the appropriate processing factors.

The regulation also lays down the lowest maximum levels for contaminants that are reasonably achievable with good manufacturing practice or good agricultural practice (i.e. ‘as low as reasonably achievable’).

Ban on mixing

Foods complying with the maximum limits may not be mixed with other foods that exceed these limits.

Foods that must be sorted or subjected to other physical treatments to reduce the level of contamination may not be mixed with foods intended for direct human consumption or use as an ingredient in food.

there’s no reason for your blatant fearmongering.

you will note that your summary of the regulation is quite disingenuous. establishing the maximum level of contaminants is not an approval, specifically your claim that every step of the supply chain is allowed up to a certain percent of contaminant and as long as nobody notices its “ok” is an obvious malinterpretation.

(this is not how food safety regulations work here.)

you’re an american, aren’t you?

sigh.

the marginalia dude is a bit of both-sideist, though it could’ve been worse (his second reply in the thread clarifies things a bit). and frankly, most of the alternative search engines developers are worse.

i’m so sorry.

she’s great, isn’t she?

they also have a blog where they blog about how unfair are the anti-ai terrible people and. among other things, why the luddites were the terrible, no good, absolutely not worthy of interest reactionary bunch who got what they deserved.

that is a well-tooled thread

it sure wasn’t, considering that rms’ highly problematic antics are well known for literal decades, and ddv only amplified them.

if not for the fact the bylaws of fsf basically give stallman control over the foundation no matter who’s voted into the board, he’d be ousted many times.

the nice thing about omarchy is that the fascist and fascist-adjacent arseholes naturally gravitate towards it.

there was nothing weird about RMS allegations

i mean, there must come a reckoning, and believe me that every single dude on that list will try to memoryhole their activities

there’s a few names i’d probably add; one is peter simon, known as probono, the appimage maintainer, a professional wayland hater (he’s maintaining a ginormous gist that lists the failures of wayland, most of which is not true, not true anymore or at least grossly exaggerated).

primeagen was presenting on the omarchy parteitag (among other people presenting was tj devries, one of the neovim core devs).

can you elaborate?

the point is to have a catalogue, and to realise how bad the situation is.

gyges went off the deep end quite some time ago, up to and including support for a crypto/ai grifter’s “dystopiabreaker” claims that not falling with the autoconfabulator crowd is basically being anti-vaccine.

there’s nothing centrist about him, along the lovely racist theophite, he’s one of the more aggressive confabulation machinery grift promoters.

that gleckler dude’s website has so many red flags it’s basically a 1985 warsaw may day parade.

and on top of that he seems to be a fan of autoconfabulators.
