While uTorrent for Windows is still the most widely used torrent client today, uTorrent for Mac has not able to gain the same kind of popularity as Windows, which could partly be due to the fact that there were already several well-known Mac torrent clients around, including Transmission and Vuze....

The informal test was conducted by The Australian, where sets of identical twins tried fooling Windows to provide access to the computer. It seems you can easily trick the Windows 10’s face detection feature, as it wasn’t even fooled once. Six sets of identical twins were part of the experiment and in each case, the procedure was the same. One of the twins would register for the face recognition and set up the account and the other would test it the next time to log into the device....

The team, led by Nelson Sepulveda, an associate professor in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Michigan State University and lead investigator of the project, has created three devices: an LCD screen which “harvests energy from a user’s touch;” an array of LEDs which lights up when somebody squeezes its pressure pad; and a keyboard which is powered only by tapping its keys. The ground-breaking findings, published in the journal Nano Energy, suggest “we’re on the path toward wearable devices powered by human motion,” said Sepulveda....
