If the Itar-tass article is right, this makes no sense because the chips are destined for government computers and state-run companies. There are probably easier ways to snoop on those computers. And why would Russia not be afraid of the NS

I think this is just reverting back to the way it was in MacOS 8 where a window could be dragged by the frame or the header bar - the only places where the chrome was exposed.

They're too fast I guess. Try catching a rifle bullet with a blob of clay. And space debries can be way faster, i.e. have more kinetic energy.

Well, there are still brands that are long-lasting, but also pricey. I bought a Miele washing machine for $1100 in 2006 and fully expect it to last 20 years. This brand has a reputation for lasting.

Basically the allied powers had just conquered Nazi Germany and no one was 100% sure that victory was forever. Now imagine a "Werewolf" movement re-capturing a chemical weapons arsenal. Therefore better to just get rid of the stuf
