Expand allergy warning labels on products. Mammal product allergy exists, it's called alpha-gal syndrome - one of the issues that can arise from a tick bite. I would like to see allergy labels for beef, pork, gelatin, and carrageenan alongside the ones for milk, wheat, nuts, etc.

Fingernail length. Anything over 1 mm past the fingernail bed must be clean, manicured, and painted with at least a clear coat.
I'd like ALL game advertising to be composed of at least 50% actual in game screenshots or or videos, but that would actually be consequential and good
For inconsequential, remove stupid-proofing from certain products, like "warning: contains eggs" in egg cartons
I want all counties to come together and agree what sounds we use for animals.
All bags of pet food must be self sealing.
All bags of pet food must be self sealing.
Your wish is granted. All pet food bags now have integrated AI to help with SmartSeal self sealing.
A finger on the monkey's paw curls.
Lmao, I worded that wrong. Like, they should all have a way to seal them shut again. Most of them you just open, I want a little ziploc top or something
The cat food I get has the plastic Velcro at the top. It's pretty handy.
I have a food container myself since almost all of my cat's food (that she'll eat anyway) come in those bags that have to be clamped or tied in sole way. 😔
Dishwashers and dish sets have complimenting standards. E.g.
Dishwasher rack is set A.
Dishes (plates, bowls, tupperware, etc.) Would advertise as "fitting rack sizes A,B, & D!"
Check out this person with their "matching dishes"! Well, aren't you fancy?
Tipping, the default tipping options should be displayed next to the price of the item.
Hard disagree. Tipping should be abolished and restaurants forced to pay a living wage should be the only regulation around tipping.
Lol, I'm not saying this is the ultimate solution. I'm answering the question. I also think tipping should be abolished.
How about we just make tipping rounding and pay people a living wage? You know in Europe, eating out is not more expensive than it is in the US and they don't beg for tips. It's such bullshit here
I'm not from North America but I live in Canada now. I find tipping is ridiculous. But if I'm going to be forced to tip it should be made clear to me before the transaction starts. I'm not saying this is the best solution. Tipping should obviously be abolished but I'm just answering this question.
Fast lane is for passing only
Tell that to the civil engineers who designed spaghetti bowls full of splits and left-exits and ignored surface street routes and mass transit so even when the freeways are moving at the speed limit there is enough traffic that there is no guarantee there will be enough space to move over at the perfect time.
This is a lovely enough idea for actual intercity travel, and it only takes a couple of clueless asses to make that frustrating, but I see people who think it's actually realistic in populated areas and I shake my head.
Already is, just that nobody enforce this.
While I understand this, are you referring to freeways only?
Or do you include any street with a > 30 mph speed limit regardless if I need to be in the left lane for the stoplight in 1.5miles?
It's almost always safer to sit in that lane when it's busier than changing lanes ~~ever~~ last minute
Freeways
Ok, but if you are still tailgating me in the right lane because I'm doing the speed limit, I'm allowed to deploy James Bond style gadgets from my car at you.
But that's already regulated.
It’s never enforced in the US and it’s incredibly frustrating
- Pwm flicker should be regulated on all LED devices, from smartphones to household bulbs and car turn signals.
- Price displayed is exactly what you pay. With tax, no credit card or smartphone surcharge or "cash discount"
- Tip screen on POS cash registers is displayed before you swipe/tap your card, not afterward.
The top speed of cars is limited to the highest speed limit in the country they're certified for.
For emergencies, there's a covered switch on the dash which disables the limit, calls 911 and transmits your position to them.
