Here’s an interesting observation that’s almost assuredly not a coincidence: Sony has been busy beavering away on patches for a bunch of first-party games prior to the release of the PlayStation 5 next month. ResetEra user Lant_War has pointed the conspicuous activity out, but we’d noticed it in a couple of cases, and also found it odd.

[PLAYSTATION Platinum Trophy Hunters Thread???]

New trophy point values:

Bronze: 15

Silver: 30

Gold: 90

Platinum: 300

 

The only difference above is that platinum trophies are now worth more (300 points instead of 180). The values of bronze, silver, and gold trophies did not change.

 

New trophy level calculation:

Once again, the trophy level calculation is not a smooth curve, but rather has cut-offs. Here is how it works:

Levels 1 - 99: 60 points (4 bronzes) per level up

Levels 100 - 199: 90 points (6 bronzes) per level up

Levels 200 - 299: 450 points (30 bronzes) per level up

Levels 300 - 399: 900 points (60 bronzes) per level up

Levels 400 - 499: 1350 points (90 bronzes) per level up

Levels 500 - 599: 1800 points (120 bronzes) per level up

Levels 600 - 699: 2250 points (150 bronzes) per level up

Levels 700 - 799: 2700 points (180 bronzes) per level up

Levels 800 - 899: 3150 points (210 bronzes) per level up

Levels 900 - 999: 3600 points (240 bronzes) per level up

 

Platinuming a single game gets you to level 23 now. It takes a total of 1631340 points to reach level 999, which equals roughly 1200 full games platinumed.

The world’s first iodine-based sanitisers, which are said to be more effective and long-lasting than alcohol-based hand cleansers, will be launched in India over the next two weeks.

Moreover, India would be the manufacturing hub for supplying the iodine sanitiser, which will be named as I2Cure, to other parts of the world, said Anil Kejriwal, Global President of the Singapore-based biotechnology firm I2Pure, which holds the patents for this molecular iodine-based product.

Using it for a couple of days:

 

Still getting used to the form factor. 

Working on it is a breeze, brilliant all across.

Not used the front screen for more than 10%

Not all apps are optimized for this, leaving some weird aspect ratios.

May miss the S Pen as my last two phones were Note 9 and 10+.

Disney's content is available everywhere through their app. So, if Xbox is not on playstation, and using this analogy equates to Disney not being on Windows or Android. Not the same thing.

It seems Ji Mantriji has been wiped off the planet. I am talking about the Indian series featuring Farooq Sheikh, based on Yes, Minister. 

 

It was an epic show. Can't find it anywhere.

 

Loved Ji Mantriji, can't seem to find it anywhere either.

 

This is news.
