Paper always seemed like the wimpiest player in Rock, Paper, Scissors. Sure, it's easy to imagine a heavy rock crushing a pair of scissors, and we all know that scissors can cut paper. But how does paper win simply by covering rock?Paper proves itself a lot tougher than it looks in a new video from carpenter John Heisz of the I Build It website and YouTube chael. In the simple two-minute video, Heisz uses one sheet of regular white printer paper to cut out a round saw-blade shape, and inserts it in his saw. It seems like the thin piece of paper can't possibly cut anything, but he builds up slowly, testing the blade on paper, then cardboard, then finally moving on to a small piece of wood, wh...

You might not recognize these people, but they were instrumental in making Star Trek the phenomenon it is today. Bjo and John Trimble were honored on stage at the Star Trek 50th aiversary convention. Let's go back into the '60s. "Star Trek" was in danger of cancellation after its second season. Bjo Trimble started a grassroots letter-writing campaign to organize fan support and call for a third season. It worked. "Star Trek" was renewed and then eventually revived in the late '70s with the start of the movie series. That may never have happened if the show was shut down after only two seasons. That's why Bjo Trimble is known as "the woman who saved Star Trek." Let's block...

"I like what it's doing to my body right now," Rodgers said of the shiny black headset. Rodgers, a member...

Windows 10 Mobile's Aiversary Update will start to reach phones like the Lumia 1502 early next week. CNET Windows 10 Mobile's Aiversary Update is coming, but not until next Tuesday.On August 2, Microsoft's Lumia India Twitter account confirmed the launch date in response to a query from a curious user.

At first glance, a new hacking technique looks pretty scary. Using an attack researchers at cybersecurity firm Bastille are calling "keysniffer," hackers can detect every key you press on your wireless keyboard.That means they can pick up your passwords, and maybe the answers to your security questions, like your mother's maiden name, too. The flaw affects keyboards manufactured by big names, like HP, Toshiba and General Electric. So far, bad news.The good news? To use "keysniffer" on you, hackers would have to be almost close enough to literally smell you. The attack works within 250 feet, which is about three-fourths the length of a football field. So inteational hackers aren't going to ge...
