“Inert gas” does not have to mean “Helium” it could mean any noble gas, and from a practical point of view (depending on the kind of fire you’re expecting) even Nitrogen or CO2.
From their website they seem to use Nitrogen or Argon, not Helium.
Helium is the lightest element, way lighter than air, so it seems not very useful to extinguish a fire. A cheap and abundant gas of comparable density to air or higher density seems to make more sense, that would be Nitrogen, Argon or 3M stuff.
They may just not have been technically advanced enough to have enough spare time to come up with those ideas. You need a proper, stable food supply to afford people whose only job is to invent means of torture.
> So why is AC still using the term "savages" to refer to non > Western European cultures, and why the fuck are you defending the practice?
And why the fuck don’t you at least TRY to educate yourself on the term “Noble Savage” and it’s contemporary usage which is exactly criticizing the pseudo-positive racism, colonialism and paternalism that is inherent in the combination of those words.
Bah, all hope is lost if even people on your side of the trench can’t be bothered to think.
AFAIK Information about your devices is stored encrypted in the iCloud and can only be decrypted with the keychain. The keychain can only be decrypted by you, not by apple. If you access actuators from outside the house, information is exchanged by sending e2e-encrypted iMessages to an iOS device in your house to relay to the device. This all looks like a sound concept to me.
A company suing someone for libel / defamation is completely different from suing someone for copying your designs. Has there been libel / defamation in the past? How many times did Apple sue someone for libel / defamation in the past, again? Zero times? Why would they start now?

Whether trademark or copyright, a reasonable reaction could have been to license it to them for $0 until further notice. IIRC was the reasonable reaction of some food or beverage company a while (years) ago, but I canâ(TM)t find a reference.
Just keep the adaptor plugged in into your headphones. If you're still losing it this way I don't think that your parents should trust you with handling their expensive mobile phones. It's just a non-issue.
If one in a million batteries catches fire per year that seems like a very rare, maybe acceptable risk. - compared to the risk of _being_ killed by a firearm in the US of about 30 in a million persons per year*1 Apple sold > 200'000'000 iPhones in the last 4 quarters.(*2) So that would mean 200 exploding new iPhones per year. The press would be all over it, so the real number and thus the risk must be waaaay lower.
Same goes for Samsung and the rest, of course. So move along, nothing to see here. But yes, it's funny that it happened in an Apple Store:)
My Bosch washing machine I bought this summer needs exactly 1:53 hours for a 60C cycle. I find it very hard to believe that I accidentally bought a super fast model and that the average washing machine today needs 3-4 hours per cycle as you say.
Nonsense, time passes, stuff gets old and unused skills are lost. Those are no factors that make conspiracy theories any more probable and the mirror is still there for anyone to check.
They (and other people) have been raided as witnesses not as suspects. And not in a case of money laundering but because the police figures that they have a connection or data on all other mailadresses @riseup.net.
Please stop justifying the raid by making things up.
They even found powdery substances in one room (for etching PCB), concluded that the CCC must be building a bomb and even seized a model of printed. Actually it was a 3D print of Fat Man and a few inches / cm long.
The print translates to: "Offense: Inducing an Explosion with explosives "Site of crime: Augsburg "Time of crime: 2018-06-20 Object (diverse) red, 3D-Print, likely model of an atomic bomb"
Yes, its true. No, it's not actually funny but police is framing the CCC as a criminal organisation.
The current MBP with escape key is a sane option. it’s nice, light and capable device. If you need a gazillion ports for external drives you may need a dock. If however you have a current WiFi setup, proper NAS and only need to use USB-Sticks on the go you‘ll be happy with a cheap matchbox-size USB-C to HDMI/USB-A adaptor, maybe an Anker 1xUSB-C/4xUSB-A Charger and a cheap adaptor for your display at the desk.
Im currently running some Linux and Windows VMs with ugly Oracle- and MS-Enterprise“-Crap and some native development environments.
I was provided the MBP a year ago and I’m a very happy owner‘. And - gasp - I like the keyboard and it still works. Though I see that dirt could be a problem...

From a psychological perspective fighter jets ARE giant dongs...

I don’t think so, that sounds very impractical.
Do you have any sources?
Old cat pees on bed. Again. And looks into different direction.
Seriously, how is $TRUMP accuses $NON-TRUMP of $STUFF_HE_DOES_NOT_SO_SECRETLY still any news?

This is a lie.
The neighbors in Düsseldorf / Germany told my father, who was a child back then, that sticky tape was made of dead Jews and dead Russians.
They knew.

Autocorrect is even more freshly.
For a German the situation is really frightening.
