I played it with an 8bit doe controller and when I pressed the sprint button my character would permanently look up lol

I switched to windows 10 and it worked fine, I'll try running the game on Linux another time

The UK literally already does and also on trains your tickets get randomly checked too so even if your moving between small stations there is a chance you'll youll caught

For sure, these companies that hold the data, one of them will have a decent size breach eventually, this data isn't safe

Via the NHS they'd be able to get methylphenidate or a number other drugs to help treat ADHD alot of these drugs work as stimulates that work for long periods of time making them much more effective then energy drinks regarding convenience

But I still get your concern as waiting lists are quite long In this country but there are other forms of caffeine as well that are alot more healthy, I still think this ban is awful though but it's not the end of the world for people with ADHD I luckily don't think

"your obviously affected by this" where is your evidence for that? I don't drink caffeine, I don't like coffee and I don't really like tea too much either and ive only have had an energy drink like once, my bias is that I care about personal freedom

Also are you sure teens don't care about how energy drinks affect there brain and dont do research into this stuff? And if so isn't this an issue of education, shouldn't we just make PSAs and include learning about this into personal health development style classes in schools, why is the immediate reaction to jump to curtailing teenagers freedoms and assume they are too stupid to understand, didn't we just give 16 year olds the right to vote, and these kids can already drink alcohol from a young age with parental permission

But your right in that it's fair that we are always learning about how drugs such as nicotine in cigarettes affect us and that things change and we never have the full facts, but this energy drink restriction doesn't seem to be a restriction in most other countries and the main justification seems to be reducing NHS waiting times, I don't think the idea of reducing freedom is the answer to saving the NHS the NHS needs much more complex reform to stay as amazing as it can be
