If they don't have a publicly releasable autopsy report available then of course you're going to get these "apparently" statements. It's obvious when you look at it but you can't be legally "certain" until someone pronounces them dead and determines the cause of death.
... and yet if i change the case on my password, either in game or on the website, I get an authentication failure. Hell, that was true back when Diablo 2 was around
I recall when the "tactics" for the SAS raid on the Iranian embassy were eventually released and everyone made a big fuss, the tactic in question was sticking a flashlight on the gun, firing from the hip and using the centre of the torch as your aiming point whilst doing so. Hardly something top secret that no one else was ever going to think of.
No kidding. I do that exact thing to bore-sight when I don't have a laser or something else I can use instead. I didn't need anyone to help me figure that part out...
The paranoia is there, because you can't know what will let the enemy connect the dots until it's too late. You can't know what information they need, so you try to hide it all.
Doesn't make much sense for us regular folks, but we aren't likely to be shot or tortured if someone gets some information from us.
Gee, lets take a device that uses household-level AC current, and in the process of using it produces enough heat to fry an egg (and shortly after, itself) and put it in a flammable container.
Not necessarily. The things they could get into orbit would be smaller (because of that dang TWR) - though what they learn in getting it up there might exceed us, it would take them more effort to do something useful with it.

What's so special about that? I'm more curious as to WTF is with all those shotguns. Especially the one with the rifle scope (slugs or sabot then?)
What's so "what the hell" about that? Suppositories are a real thing and they exist for a reason.
It more than just references, they are described as direct competitors...
Not to mention Black Mesa is (repeatedly) referred to as a competitor to Aperture Science.
I fully expect the two divergent plots to merge. Keeping in mind that (spoiler):
You do escape, in Portal 2, bringing the gravity gun and your leg braces out into the world. Who knows where it goes from there? Only Valve's writers.
Portal is Half-Life. Don't forget that.
Aye!
... and claiming you know, and admitting when you discover when you were wrong, is another entirely.
Technically correct is best correct.
Actually no, i'm wrong. What the hell?

Fact seems to disagree with you.
Aw, that's too bad.
I think you mean Type 56. China does not use the AK line, they have their own copies.

Funny to think how much money we throw at defense and almost none of it gets spent on you guys. That's the real travesty there.

In the same way that 'antimatter' is 'matter.'
I bet you had Synapse running when you ran the update. MSI saw handles open to the files and says "you gotta reboot."
Next time close (kill the process if you have to) the thing first and see if it bugs you again?
That's funny, I plugged mine in and the standard USB HID mouse "driver" kicked right in.
That would be heavy as hell but would look something fancy...
Bonus points: it's nonconductive as well! (well, depending on the mineral content of that particular stone)

How could it go wrong?
I'm pretty sure that won't matter. Such a small (relatively) change of gravity really isn't going to matter for things at that scale.

That's not the point.
Like Smokey (almost) says: Only you can kill it with fire.
