Actually, I have an RFID tag implanted in my hand, and I was rather worried that it would blow up or something when I would put my hand on our stove. Turns out it's no problem at all, I have tried everything possible to get a tag to explode, break, get warm or even just stop working, but I haven't been able to find a way.

Stupid question, why do you have an RFID tag in your hand?

Mostly for the body hack value of it, at this moment I only use it to log on to my computer. There's a book out there ('RFID toys') that describes how it could be used to unlock/start a car or unlock a door. Maybe if I ever have a spare weekend or two (heh) I'll make something like a 'hidden' safe, a seemingly normal wall that springs open when I wave my hand past it. Maybe put a gun safe in there or something. If I ever build another house for myself I will try to put some hidden areas like that in it.
Overall and right now it's of limited practical value. Still makes for a cool story and discussion starter on transhumanism.
