I have a Clara 2E. It was some time ago, so I cannot remember all the fine details, but I couldn't get mine to start without some internet connection. I gave a throwaway email and allowed it to update before I switched off WiFi and could freely move books with Calibre.
To it's credit, in 3 years since purchase it has not asked for internet since switching it on the first time.
No, it's worse than that.
Putin attended a wedding (in 2018, 5 months post Crimea annexation) of the then foreign minister [link].
They dissolved their government in 2019 after the then leader of the FPÖ told a journalist pretending to be a relative of an oligarch, that she could ensure positive coverage in exchange for government contracts. This might not be a direct link to a foreign enemy, but the corruption runs deep.

A senior quasi-secret service officer was discovered by the British to have been a spy for at least 7 years before he was apprehended. He was (cheaply) selling state secrets and providing information to the Russians... [link.]
The discovery of the missing data from the budget airline's Boeing 737-800 jet's crucial final minutes was surprising and suggests all power, including backup, may have been cut, which is rare.
Is that your take from a 2 second clip of a discussion with a police offer? Or are you referring to something else?
I don't think I've heard very many (or any) people speak openly about supporting the colonization of Palestine and the genocide of the Arab Palestinians.
And this is why it is too cheap to call these people idiots. They know exactly how to get the image they need and spin it to their advantage. AND they move faster than their lies.
I've done this with an old pair and works fine. It may be worth noting that I have had a few of these adapter's fail over time. So if OP takes this solution, I would not recommend permanently fixating the adapter to the headphones (e.g. with super glue)
Alone, each layer (slice) of the security system has holes. But, when you put more layers on top (each with their own holes) some of the holes are now covered. Add more layers, and cover more holes.
In an airport, it is not just TSA but also cameras doing pattern recognition in the airport for suspicious activity, add into the mix complex national security measures and you would hope there is sufficient layers/coverage to stop most serious cases.
Sure, nuclear energy is valid and all, but you sound like an absolute spanner...
If you want to argue that nuclear energy has its place, maybe don't ridicule people who remember how much of an issue the last major nuclear meltdown was (and partially is).
That is about the price I paid recently for 10 organic medium eggs in Austria.
