Perhaps we'll just need to bring the papers and effects closer to our "person" in the interim. How many people might get a little bio-engineered implant that holds a relatively large amount of data? Access it over bluetooth, direct via your mind, or something else.
Of course, there are a lot of steps between that technology and reality, but I think forcing a person into surgery to get at some data which may or may not be hidden away inside of them would rub a lot of people the wrong way.
You think the Government is going to let you install a hard drive in your brain? I dont see the FDA letting that happen. Hope you know a good street doc.
In fact it is probably best to think of this without quantum mechanics at all. What they did is pretty much like figuring out the shape of an object by shooting BBs at it and looking at which ones make it past the object.
Ok, well we could give everyone a receipt. And you could go online to make sure no one changed who you voted for. Like you can look up keno games now. You could look up vote #s. As long as the vote # isnt ties to a person there would be no problem. With the results public you could write verify the results yourself, and anyone whos vote was changed would have their receipt to prove it.
Any election where your vote is secret can be rigged. There have been stories of boxes of paper ballots disappearing. If the e-voting machines gave you the voter a receipt with a vote ID number, and your vote was published(say online) how could elections be rigged? Would it be worth the invasion of privacy to ensure a secure voting system?
The Pirate Bay bought Sealand I thought. They are the first on Sealand, because they own it! They even changed the name of their site to The Pirates of Sealand.
The MPAA is essentially hijacking bittorrent technology for their own greedy uses. We will see non-regulated bittorrent become a relic of internet as we know it.
A relic, not so long as torrent sites like the Pirate Bay are around, and it doesnt look like PB is going anywhere. If bittorent moves into the history books it will be because it was replaced with a better p2p protocol. The free exchange of data cannot and should not be stopped.

Cant they sue Microsoft for stealing bandwidth, and bad design?
Devlin(writer of original movie) has, however, stated that he plans to write his own sequel to Stargate separately to its spin-offs, providing two versions of the continuing story.

Oh, what bullshit. Look, if the constitution wasn't supposed to be amended, then Article Five wouldn't be there in the first place, would it?
Just because you can do something, doesnt mean you should.

You mean like a X-Ray.

Carmack might not force you to use DX10 and Vista, other developers may.

Just for a laugh. I mean, they're not mutually exclusive, are they?
Who cares, let the lawyers figure it out.

They wish, they only have $17,000 so far http://buysealand.com/
Sealand has an asking price of $977 million.
but until now has been thought to have too much 'technology risk
Whats the risk the smell?
and a claimed Mean Time Between Failures of 1.6 million hours.
Thats 182 years.

Who wouldnt want to be the first torrent site on Sealand?
You can't sue Microsoft for bad design!
They're still in business, aren't they?
I know, i was trying to be funny.....hey so where you.
The summary is titled "Could HP Beat Moore's Law?" - highlighting the article's signifigance in answering this hyptothetical with a resounding Maybe!
Well this being Slashdot I assumed the title declared this already happened and didnt bother reading it.

the first movie was good. Never seen the series.
Loved the SNES version. Microsoft has bought the parent company and is planing to turn it into a multiplayer only fps unfortunately.
Now you too can win an ipod.
