It's about the lack of visible flame, but more about the velocity of the burn, essentially instantaneous at normal camera speeds.

From what I understand, some of the fraudulent drives have firmware that just wrap the writes around to the beginning.

Sure, so if the drive is genuine, or even one sector short (I recognize it's more typically a much larger fraction for the fraudulent drives), you'd still have to write to nearly the full stated capacity to verify. This approach t

How long does this tool take to verify a real drive? "it only writes what’s necessary to test the drive" How does that actually work, wouldn't that mean the whole stated capacity would have to be written?

"MAY BE THE LAST SOLDERING IRON YOU EVER BUY" It's got batteries in it. Is it really going to last longer than something that runs on AC with no chips in it?

It's expensive and difficult to do. In the end, you're left with something that cost you more, and is less capable than a new EV.

Or... lose less money. It's not like they're reaping any profit. They're trying to prevent the company from failing.

What makes you think the bank account wouldn't be stolen, opened in a foreign country, or opened with false credentials?

A lot of the scams originate in other countries. Convincing them to prosecute on behalf of a foreign victim is difficult.

Other materials can be cast, such as various aluminum alloy. Casting can have a higher cycle time, be cheaper, and require a less expensive equipment.

There's still a potential for a short circuit and a rapid release of energy. Whether that release itself is fire, or the energy causes plasmas and fires doesn't really seem to matter much.

This goes back to before lithium batteries were common. It was a fear of electric fields.

It took decades to allow electronic devices to be used in flight, despite no evidence that they would cause a problem. I wouldn't count on battery chemistry changes leading to changes in FAA rules very quickly.

The last bit... Surely the court wouldn't want to force these companies to continue to advertise against their will on a platform that can sue them for not advertising? Monetary damage make sense if twitter prevails though.

Botulism is the biggest concern, and even still, it is pretty rare and avoidable. Mold is generally visible, and if found, you can just discard. As long as you're following good practices (cleaning, temperature, proper salt ratios, ver

Farmers get their inputs much cheaper than I do, especially water. Water is essentially free compared to residential rates at about 100x cheaper.
