Sure. Have 2 conductive plates separated by an insulator. Each one should be connected to the circuit in the manner of a switch. Make sure that you have redundant circuitry in case a bullet hits a vital part of the circuitry. If the plate is compromised, then it will likely cause a connection, and subsequent triggering. Alternately, you could use a thin container of mercury which when compromised, would spill out and complete the circuit. Dear DHS/FBI, I am not a bomb maker, just a geek that likes to think about problems and hypothetical engineering like this, and express it through his First Amendment right of free speech. Please leave me alone, as I have NO intention of making/using a bomb (baring the odd firecracker or bottle rocket). I am not a threat, and I do not need to be dragged from my house in my underwear, and interrogated for hours on end. There is nothing to see here. Thank you, Ustice

Hasn't Apple blocked apps for political reasons? Shouldn't this app be blocked then? Honestly, I'm surprised that it wasn't required to be included on the device.

I'm remembering all of those TVs that are broken from flung Wiimotes. Imagine the pain when someone flings there iphone into their monitor.

So, if we all decide to boycot a particular gas company for a month, the price of gas will go down! BRILLIANT! Oi. Why would people pay for something that they use for free. If Yahoo is worried about spam protection, then they should just use Google's spam filter, like they use MS's search engine. Problem solved.

Give her the option. Tell her what you are thinking, since she isn't paying for them. She may just abandon them, or she may pay you. If you are footing the bill, I don't see it as wrong at all. She may just not remember that there IS a cost to it.

So... This law somehow prohibits either snipping a wire or replacing it with a small resistor?

All this does is prevent me from taking pictures of my god-son in concerts and the like.

Idiots.

It sounds like this jack-ass is using the system that Philip M Parker developed to create "custom books" where a computer network scours publicly available sources of information and then pieces together a "book" based on the information that it picks up. To someone scanning the books, you may not notice, but it you try to understand anything in it you can't help but realize that either the person that wrote it was a complete idiot, or it was computer generated.

Depending on what kind of geeky you want, there are replicas of the Rings of Power (Lord of the Rings), and the Aes Sedai rings (Wheel of Time).
