All that speech does not change that the weighing scales he is using is cheap af and thus the measuring error is high enough. Even if the guys at the company had the best measuring system in the world without error and they packed 410g of pasta, the guy measuring at home with that scale would probably mesure a vaule not equal to the nominal one.
Maybe the scales have measuring errors because they defend evil corporations. "Please scales stop defending evil corporations!!". Dude i hate scales they are so much pro system....
Srry your comment was too funny for me.
It’s clearly a conspiracy by Big Scale to sell more scales.
All that speech doesn't change the fact that your standards don't matter, ours do, and if our scales don't match what that package says, you have to put more product in to make it do so or you are defrauding us. Period.
Now come back when you're ready to meet our standards.
You aren’t shit. They scales do meet standards that are tested periodically to ensure they aren’t false advertising. Do you really think these corporations don’t have audits?
Calm down, touch grass, try to get in touch with reality and stay off the tankie portions of the internet that feed these delusions.
You sound like an angry oldman not wanting to accept reality.
So you want companies to put excess product because you don't know how to measure correctly (or don't have good equipment). Well ask them. For the price of 410g, too? No? And maybe a paycheck supplement too.
I want a lot of things too.
The point is that it isn't false advertising if you don't know how to measure well. Is not a standar or whatever you think it is. It's reality.
Outside the kindergarten where everything seems so simple and easy to understand. In real life you don't have ideal things. You don't have an ideal measuring place.
Sources of error when measuring:
And you are ranting about evil and "our" standards or whatever for a 2% error in the measurement? I would expect a 5% error given all that. That scale must be an exceptional good one.
It's not standards it's reality. Why do you think measuring labs are so expensive? Evil companies?
Try measuring your height more than once and see if results change. Hey if they change, you work for the evil companies, and you probably live in our "standards zone".
Our/Yours standards was pure comedy. It's getting better and better.
I'm not sure if I'm missing a joke here, but are you asking for some alternative-metrology here?!
Weight is a well-defined standard, and a properly calibrated scale > your kitchen scale.
Yeah this guy is pure comedy at this point tbh. Are you of the "our standards" team or "their standards" team (very evil, probably eat childs too)
