The first, "the pattern of electrical potential flowing through the laptop's metal parts..." What about multitasking, that would change the feedback, though I am confused why there would be electrical potential through a heatsink, that's why I am saying feedback. Also the last method, audio...

Yes they did years ago. It's not nearly as bloaty as it once was.

There is an efficiency problem I see with slow cookers even today. At least the dummer ones. They are not insulated by anything more than the glass dish and the thin metal chassis of the cooker. You can tell if it's not insulated if the outside of the pressure cooker becomes hot to the touch...

I guess encrypting the incoming/outgoing torrent traffic won't fool them? Perhaps there will be a way to fool them.

*MQ thank goodness and yeah. Buy the SSD separately in most cases will save $$

MSI GT70, it has a nice upgradable CPU. I think 3-way RAID 0 SSD possibilities along with a mechanical drive. Removable battery so you can swap it out if it runs low

Nah, carburetors suck. Go with multi-port fuel injection and OBD2 at least, before key encryption and drive by wire. That's a good car ('99 Civic). Though a used red Chevy Volt is in my future, my heart is driven to it for some reason.

Microsoft is office is free if you look in the right places, such as old versions of Office or other ways. Most laptops can play movies. Conclusion; Don't buy a laptop for the software that comes with it. Buy it for the power and options you need, reliability, ergonomics.

Electric power steering, collision avoidance technologies could cause crashes if hacked. All cars are drive by wire these days so hacking the butterfly valve solenoid could also cause a crash if the driver doesn't put it in neutral or press the brake. All cars have manual braking controls even...

It may be helpful to have an manual transmissioned car, but if it's hacked, it equally easy to stop from accelerating. Put it neutral. Electronic ebrake is something that could be controlled by hackers, depends on if it's networked or just controlled by a physical switch. I think some research...

Intriguing, a USB stick that can make the computer think it's a keyboard, maybe a mouse to control the computer.
