Still a part of nutrition though, no?

I'll also take this opportunity to point out that taking just fibre is not particularly useful either.
It only really makes sense when in conjunction with other substances in forms that come with traditional foods.

... reading comprehension of a 12yo

I'm going to disagree on the mod's comment over here.
I am yet to see a 12yo with such a bad reading comprehension and I was pretty stupid back when I was 12.

Problem with humans is that due to the pesky human rights laws, it becomes exceedingly difficult to fully control their food intake and normalise any other variables that may cause similar effects.

But as long as those laws don't prevent us from normalising the usage of our products in the society, that's all well. Even better, if someone does such a study on humans, we can simply state "other variables" to invalidate those studies and it shouldn't affect our revenue streams too much.

I always tend to avoid stuff with the "Diet" or "sugar free" labels, just for this reason.
And it didn't require a study to convince me that random stuff that is not a part of nutrition, is better off being out of a regular diet.
But it definitely takes a study to validate my concerns.

Yeah.
My point was, that if you are re-encoding anyway, might as well choose all the options yourself, properly.

W*ite Hous

Did you mean "Weite Haus"?

I would love to have Seagate techs comment on it, but that's probably not going to happen, so I'll just take some guesses.

Maybe in the 2FR102 variants (which I am definitely not going to buy just to try them out), they changed the provider for the SATA controller or maybe some IC related to power management, which made them have to make some changes in the firmware.
They checked the changes with whichever system they had at the time and there is some edge case caused by the setup that causes a problem in the newer kernel.

The thread seems to have 2 other instances of similar problems, which seem to stem from a different issue, but are not the same fix, since they are not using the same device. Considering that there is only a single example (well I didn't read it as deeply, so I might have missed sth) of the specific HDD, I would also consider something going on between the HDD and the SATA controller on the motherboard.

I just play the computer ones.

I know 1 thing though.

If someone walking by, falls over that, that's a lawsuit waiting to happen.

The incident from xz gives a good example of where self-compiling stuff would be a good idea.
The code was mostly fine, but the maintainer managed to include malicious instructions in the binary. Most people who read the source, didn't realise the possibility. I checked it out afterwards and it was still hard to get.
