Here's what actually might take shape as Apple CEO Tim Cook launches the iPhone 7 at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium tonight. I f rumours are to be believed, iPhone 7 will be a slight upgrade from its previous iteration. The two iPhones will be powered by an all-new A10 chipset, which is expected to be 20 per cent more powerful than its predecessor, the A9. Keeping with its recently-found gusto, the Cupertino-based smartphone giant is expected to release two variants as always: iPhone 7 Plus with a 5.5-inch display and iPhone 7 with a 4.7-inch display. The 5.5-inch variant could come with a 256GB ROM and the 4.7-inch iPhone will be loaded with 128GB ROM. Disappointingly, in the RAM department Apple is likely to stay with 2GB RAM for both the variants even as competition from Samsung and scores of Chinese phones have been upping the ante on this front. It is in the camera department that tech enthusiasts are expecting some novel additions to both iPhone 7 Plus and ...

Have you ever wanted to learn how to pick locks? Well, this stupid simple GIF is your ticket. Now you just need to practice. A lock, in its simplest form, is just a series of pins,  each of which has two parts that are illustrated in red and blue to the left. To pick a lock, you simply need to insert a pick and push the pins into place so that the upper, blue part clicks into place outside of the cylinder. This will allow the cylinder to turn freely and the lock to open. So what you do, is first insert a tension wrench. (That's the L-shaped tool on the bottom.) This will let you turn the cylinder slightly and apply some torque to the lock. Then you dive in with your pick and feel out the pins. You simply need to find the pin that you can push outside of the cylinder first. (That's the one with the little yellow stamp on it.) Once all of the pins are set, you just turn the torque wrench, and the lock should spring open. Obviously,  lock picking gets more complic...

Here at Paleofuture, we love failed predictions. It’s kind of our bread and butter. But shockingly, some of the failed predictions being passed around on the internet are often misleading, frequently taken out of context, or sometimes completely fabricated. Fake quotes on the internet? Unbelievable,  I know . But today we have seven predictions you may have seen recently as examples of “bad predictions.” They sound too good to be true. And that’s because they are. 1) “Everything that can be invented has been invented.” - Charles H. Duell, Commissioner of the US patent office in 1899 This is perhaps the most popular “failed prediction” of our age. I think it’s now technically illegal to make a Powerpoint presentation about business innovation without this quote in your first slide. The only problem? It’s totally fake. There’s no evidence that Duell ever said it. It gets debunked from time to time in books like  Future Hype (2006) and  Atomic Aw...
