Sorry Apple, but you are late to the game. I dropped support for Flash over 10 years ago.

If LG had promised these features to potential buyers and they are now dropping them then LG is probably going to be hit with a class action lawsuit.

I'm a bit lost on the timing and mechanics of the split. "Each Apple shareholder of record at the close of business on August 24, 2020 will receive three additional shares for every share held on the record date, and trading will begin on a split-adjusted basis on August 31, 2020." 

I imagine the added shares don't actually get issued until the 31st? If they get issued and can be traded immediately after COB August 24th wouldn't that temporarily put the market cap at roughly $8T? (I know that SURELY can't be the case) What happens with shares purchased during the entire week between?

I’ve melted one of these (different brand) with a window A/C unit that It should have been Able to handle.  Will these be ok with a smaller (<7000 BTU) a/c?  What about a mid-sized 12,000 BTU a/c?

While the smart plug is rated to meet the typical power rating of the A/C unit, the published power draw of the A/C usually doesn't specify the peak power demand. A/C units have a much higher peak power consumption when the motor(s) first kick on. It's not unheard of to have the starting current 5x the normal current.

A very close friend of mine who is 52 hard a heart attack while out running recently, he was wearing his Apple Watch 5. He told me the day after that is Apple Watch never signaled anything was wrong before or during the attack. My point don't put too much weight behind what Apple claims about this device. 

The watch is limited on what it can detect. Apple doesn't claim it can diagnose everything about your heart. The manuals state:

• Apple Watch cannot detect heart attacks. If you ever experience chest pain, pressure, tightness, or what you think is a heart attack, call emergency services immediately.  
• The irregular rhythm notification feature on Apple Watch is not constantly looking for AFib. This means it cannot detect all instances of AFib, and people with AFib may not get a notification.

However it does an amazing job at some of these tasks. There are no other watches with these features. Most of these require dedicated health equipment and merely the rental of ones that are rated to detect AFib and these abnormalities cost more than the Apple Watch.
