One thing that might put you off wanting this feature in all buzzsaws:

If you read StopSaw's "how it works" section on their site, it'll tell you that the brake is a single-use cartridge that costs $69 a pop, and that you also need to replace the blade (presumably also a StopSaw proprietary part)
That'd be all well and good, if the saw only ever stopped when you actually put your finger in it - $200 for a new blade and brake is obviously a small price to pay for saving your finger.
But the site also goes on to explain that the brake is activated electrically, by the conductivity of the human body as opposed to wood.
In order for the saw to stop if you are not touching some other part of the chassis, this will need to be a high-frequency noise detector (like when you touch an audio amplifier input), which are very susceptible to.. noise.

It must be VERY profitable for StopSaw if they get $200 or so every time there is a bit of RF noise in a workshop!

You don't have to remove the passphrase to log in non-interactively. You just have to be using a ssh-agent such as keychain.
And many people (including me) do..

ditto. Should have been an option.

This is not about terrorism. This is about political power and controlling a populace.
Terrorism is merely the spectre our governments wave over our heads to make us swallow their propaganda.

Really, the idea is to give up our rights, freedoms, and equalities, and instead trust in the government.
Surveillance will save us all from crime and terror. Give up your rights. If you don't want to, you must be a criminal or a terrorist.

This search engine spam seems to me like an exercise in propaganda. The home office wants to see if it can force undesirable pages out of the public eye by means of google spam, and it has invented a legitimate way of doing it.
It won't work, of course, as the article points out. Our governments are as incompetent as they are evil. :)

So by this logic, including DRM could be equated to professional negligence or fraud - shipping a product as good when you know it to be defective (by design I might add)

I'd love to see that tested in the courts :D
(well actually I wouldn't.. I know which way it'd go ;_;)
