    Well bummer. I only use it for app development, so I keep it powered down most of the time, so it should be OK, right…?

      RC car enthusiasts use “lipo guard” bags to control any runaway fires during charging and transport, one the size of a pixel is under $15.

        Rip I guess I’m gonna have to look for one or something, signed in to the site with my college email and then it asked how I wanted the money so im guessing that means my pixel is affected

      I don’t think they’ve made the failure conditions public. That may not mitigate the risk.
