Independent of whether this is electronic-voting-from-home or show-up-at-the-polls-and-touch-a-screen-voting, there's a simple concept from the business world that can be adapted for this situation...
Actually, it's easier than that... the Edgerton technique was to leave the shutter open with the lights out, and then the flash illuminates the scene - because there is only a light source for a fraction of a second, you don't even need the logic controller for the "snapping" of pictures, you just need it to close the shutters before you turn the lights back on:)
Okay, well, let's put a mini-fridge with the heating on the outside and the cooling facing inside (assuming no leaks) and I guess that should solve the problem... I guess it wouldn't be a closed system though:)
IANAP, but I hear that Aerogel would be more analogous to a glass foam.:)
And since the first samples were produced in 1931, I think it might be safe to say that they don't totally require a zero-g environment for manufacturing... of course, the real concern is how to mass-produce it:)
There's probably more personal information in the credit card than the watch. However, with RFID, there's an aura of mystique that makes everyone think that the Government can track you every where you go if you have one... kind of like how They track people with the metal strips in dollar bills.:)
But seriously, they do have download links for stuff like that. I think the option is catered specifically to sysadmins with large numbers of machines. And can't you run your own internal windows update server and tell the Windows boxes to grab and install updates automatically?
No, the proper technique is called a "reach around". You reach around behind the box, unplug the network cable or phone line (I caught a worm over dialup once, that was the most hilarious thing ever), and consider yourself lucky.

I do believe it would be "every possible permutation", not "combination". In a permutation, the order of things is important - this means that there are actually an even larger number of possibilities.
Like, lets say you have five letters, ABCDE. In a combination, the order is irrelevant, and so it doesn't matter how you arrange them.
In a permutation, order is highly important. For five letters, the number of possible permutations is 5! (factorial). This means there are 120 possible ways to arrange those five letters. (Try it: 1x2x3x4x5). Imagine if you have 50 characters? Most calculators refuse to calculate 100Factorial.
(I don't know if I really have a point, except to say that I think you should have used permutation instead of combination, because combination - despite the socially accepted meaning - actually makes it seem less impactful than it should be.)
People who don't know how to apply their degrees are worthless, to a certain extent. The degree itself is not worthless - even if it didn't cost anything.

I think that all of Man's great erections should be cherished.
Finally, a true successor to Ernest Goes To Camp.
Try it.
Uhm ...

Hey! I saw Gigli, and I use Mozilla. You're trying to give me a bad name ...
(Note that I didn't LIKE Gigli, I just wanted to watch a train-wreck in progress.)
They made fun of it on the news here in BC ... Smart & Biggar! (That's the correct spelling, btw)
I rather enjoyed WFW3.11 :)

Gorram right! :) Mmmm, DVD box set ... I hear they might be making a movie, too.

I think one of the properties of proper insulation is that it can keep heat OUT, not just in.
... and you have the best air conditioning on the planet. In theory.
Take the candle from the example in the story, and replace it with a block of ice
"Are you insane?" counts as an "inquiry" to them, I think.
What if they did the movie "Alien" without showing any space imagery or aliens?

I was just trying to make a joke about the paranoia surrounding RFID ...
I'll have a filet-o-fish meal and a side order of invasion-of-privacy, please. :)

Isn't a dream by definition fantasy? Therefore, all game genres and concepts are fantasy. :)
I once got hit by a worm that installed a D.Net client in the background. I didn't notice it for two or three months.

I damn near fell over laughing when I found it.
Many of them have no balls, therefore they have no wool. This makes it a rare, though not exactly sought-after, material.
