    Apple is quite secretive when it comes to new products, however rumours tend to spill over from some of the most reliable sources. Now, the latest word on the street is that Apple could be working on its own handheld gaming console, similar to the Nintendo Switch. Apple has been experimenting in the world of gaming with its Apple Arcade service and a new Apple TV that can play console-level games. However, it seems logical that Apple would be working on its own Nintendo Switch-like console.

    The new rumour comes from a Korean forum post that was later shared on Twitter by user “FronTron.”

    Apple, preparing a portable hybrid console, like the Switch

    A new AP is being prepared with a new model name, not the Apple A series or M series. It features enhanced GPU performance and ray tracing support. Future games are in negotiation with Ubisoft.https://t.co/K88iSMC4bd

    Since this is just a rumour at the moment, we do advise taking this piece of information with a pinch of salt. The new hardware could include Apple-designed SoCs such as the A14 Bionic or even the M1 Chip. The handheld device could be technically more powerful than the Nintendo Switch if this rumour indeed comes to fruition.

    The rumour also suggests Apple might be in negotiations with Ubisoft to create games for its new handheld console. Ubisoft is responsible for some of the most popular franchises such as Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry and Rayman. 

    The Nintendo Switch design has proven to be a great formula for handheld gaming devices which also resulted in companies developing accessories like the Razer Kishi and the Backbone controller. It doesn’t really make sense for Apple to make a handheld console since the iPhone and iPad can already handle console-level games. Having said that, a dedicated Apple Arcade machine could actually be in the works as the company has been interested in gaming for a while now.

    Rakhi Sawant has become one of the biggest source of entertainment for the masses amid the pandemic. The star keeps us hooked to her everyday banter and leaves no stone unturned in cheering the audience. In one of the latest instances, Vir Das replied to a tweet that said Vir should be the next PM. The comedian rather endorsed Sonu Sood, to take the place of the Prime Minister and not him.

    Sonu Sood needs no introduction as his work speaks volumes of his benevolent nature. Amid the pandemic, Sonu has been working relentlessly ensuring the common people get all the help they need, at such crucial times. He has been appreciated several times for his philanthropic work. From helping stranded migrants to providing hospital aid to people, Sood was hailed as a Messiah for his hard work.

    This has now led to Rakhi Swant endorsing him as the next PM of India. Not just that, Rakhi also suggested that even Salman Khan would prove to be a good fit as the PM for the country. In a video, she can be heard calling both the actors 'asli heroes'. She said “Main to kehti hoon Salman Khan aur Sonu Sood ko is desh ka Pradhan Mantri bana diya jaye, kyunki asli hero to woh hi hai. Sonu Sood sabse zyada kitna love karte hain apni country se apne logon se.”
    She also mentioned that even Akshay Kumar and Amitabh Bachchan are also providing help to the ones in need.

    Sonu Sood has now replied to the comment and said that he isn't willing to be the PM of the country. He was recently seen distributing refreshing drinks outside his building to the photographers. When asked what he thinks about Rakhi's take, he said "Hum aam insaan ache hai bhai, aam insaan better hai." He further added that the brothers are already fighting elections already. Hence, he doesn't wish to be a part of it as that's not what he intends to do.

    Even Pooja Bhatt and Priyanka Chopra Jonas appreciated Sonu's extraordinary efforts. In fact, Priyanka mentioned that he is a visionary philanthropist.

    Speaking of Salman, even he has been assiduous at such times. From giving monetary assistance to the workers in the film industry to offering rations, the Bhai of Bollywood is reaching out to the ones in need. The actor had also helped Rakhi cover the expenses for her mother's cancer treatment.
    Meanwhile, several other stars including Anushka Sharma, Virat Kohli, Hrithik Roshan, Twinkle Khanna, etc are making headlines for providing monetary aid to several Covid-relief funds.

    The Chinese Government defended its handling of the uncontrollable rocket booster that landed very close to the Maldives archipelago. The rocket boost burned up over the Indian Ocean, however Beijing says that it is being held to a different standard than the US and other space programs. Earlier this week, NASA administrator and experts accused Beijing of acting recklessly for allowing its rocket to fall to earth uncontrolled.

    “China has been closely tracking its trajectory and issued statements on the re-entry situation in advance,” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying said. “There has been no report of harm on the ground. China also shares the results of re-entry predictions through international cooperation mechanisms.”

    Hua also complained that Beijing was being treated unfairly. She pointed to a SpaceX launch earlier this year where its debris fell in Washington and on the Oregon coast. “American media used romantic rhetoric like ‘shooting stars lighting up the night sky,’” she said. “But when it comes to the Chinese side, it’s a completely different approach. We are willing to work with other countries including the United States to strengthen cooperation in the use of outer space, but we also oppose double standards on this issue," Hua said.
    It seems like Chinese officials are still ignorant of the fact that an uncontrollable rocket falling to Earth was highly irresponsible of them in the first place. The rocket was sighted by people in Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Oman where many of them posted recordings of the debris reentering earth.

    However, with most launches, rocket boosters are usually discarded soon after liftoff and don’t go into orbit which was not the case for China’s Long March 5B rocket. Even if rocket boosters do go into orbit, space engineers can control its speed and trajectory by firing up the boosters whenever necessary, a capability the Long March 5B lacked. 

    Harvard astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell, who tracked the tumbling rocket part, said on Twitter, “An ocean reentry was always statistically the most likely. It appears China won its gamble… But it was still reckless.”

    Last year and again this year as well Sonu Sood has been in the news for his philanthropic ventures. We all know, how he has been going out of his way to help people in need. If Superman were a real character, Sonu Sood would have definitely trumped him.

    What gets lost in the background of most of this, is just how stylish the actor is, and how suave a dressing sense he is born with.
    Just recently, Sonu was spotted outside his apartment in Mumbai, in a really dope looking street outfit. Seriously if you ask us, this is one of the best takes on normcore fashion that we have seen in a long time.

    Sonu was spotted wearing a sleeveless T-shirt from Under Armour, the American sports Apparel makers. The sleeveless tee that he was seen wearing comes from a special collaboration between the brand, and Dwayne Johnson’s Project Rock initiative.

    Called the UA x Project Rock Vanish Sleeveless T-Shirt, this piece used to retail for about $40, or roughly Rs 3,000.

    Along with that, Sonu had paired a rather dapper looking pair of denim, the premium line up from Diesel called the Diesel Black Gold Jeans. The ribbing and the distress marks look rather dope.

    Because the jeans were dark in colour they had a very understated appeal on their part.

    We also like how, in places, they have used patches of dark blue denim to give the pants some character.

    Then, there are the sneakers that Sonu’s wearing. At first, they look like a regular pair of coke white sneakers. Look carefully though, and you’ll see, that he’s wearing a pair of Yeezy 350s.

    In particular, he’s wearing the Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 Cream White Triple Core, a pair of sneakers that were designed by Kanye West. Now, although Kanye owns the Yeezy label, he is involved in designing only a few pieces, like, these sneakers.

    Because they are a pair of Yeezy’s and have some legacy, they were a bit expensive when they were new.

    Back in 2017, they used to retail for about $220, or about Rs 17,000-19,000, in India. Now though, they resell for more than twice that. On most sneaker trading and reselling platforms, these pairs go for about $500, or about Rs 40,000.

    Say what you will, but it seems that some sneakers make better investments than most mutual funds. All kidding aside though, Sonu, it seems, has a great taste in sneakers. Take a bow, man, seriously.

    While the world is grappling with the adverse effects of the pandemic, there are some people who are making things worse than they already are. Remember the time when a man from Florida blew Covid-19 relief funds in July 2020 to buy himself a Lamborghini? Looks like history does repeat itself, as another similar incident took place wherein a man identified as Mustafa Qadiri, used the PPP loans to buy himself a Lamborghini Aventador S and a Ferrari 458 Italia. That's not it as the seized assets also had a Bentley Continental GT Coupe. Let that sink in!

    The 38-year-old man, who lives in Southern California, had been procuring millions of dollars from the government aid which was made to let the small businesses strive amid the pandemic. It is reported that Mustafa obtained at least $5 million from the Federal Covid relief funds fraudulently and was arrested last week for the same.

    Federal agents have seized three luxury sports cars allegedly purchased by Mustafa Qadiri, 38, of Irvine, with fraudulently obtained COVID-19 Payment Protection Program (PPP) loans. pic.twitter.com/MIdkjFeZx2
    — US Attorney L.A. (@USAO_LosAngeles) May 7, 2021
    He has been slapped with several charges including wire fraud, aggravated identity theft, money laundering and bank fraud. According to reports, Qadiri submitted fake loan applications from banks that were non-existent. Morever, the papers included fake tax returns, forged bank records etc. He also used some other name and social security number to get the loans.
    Mustafa was arrested last week and pleaded not guilty to the charges imposed on him. Besides seizing the expensive cars, the remaining $2 million has also been seized from his account. The US District Judge Josephine L. Staton has now scheduled a trial for this case on June 29. Qadiri has been released with a bond of $100,000.

    The Paycheck Protection Program came into effect in March 2020. It granted low-interest loans to businesses that employed 500 or fewer employees. The U.S Small Business Administration mentioned that at least 8.2 million loans had been given up until March 21 of at least $718 billion.

    Here's how the people reacted to this fraudulent act.
    Thank you for your hard work on this case. This level of greed and hubris makes me sick. Think of who could have truly used these funds.
    Oh yeah, he got a PPP loan. Hope he needs it in prison. ***** Protection Plan.
    — buddydog1 (@buddydog112) May 8, 2021Good work... Now get Kanye and the billionaires who took loans and didn't need them
    — Strong Moderate (@SMFM) May 8, 2021That’s quite a windfall, Mustafa!
    — ItsTerri (@ItsTerri) May 7, 2021Can I have the Lambo? I'll put it to good use.
    — asshole mirror (@NormaltonJim) May 9, 2021They should be investigating the chain of command who approved these “loans”.
    — FC (@FraserDColeman) May 9, 2021Impressive! Glad to see Justice being done.

    Israel and Palestine have been at loggerheads for decades. Since the end of World War 2, the whole world has witnessed the bitter struggle between Israelis and Palestinians. The recent violence that began as clashes has now escalated into rockets and airstrikes from both sides. The core issue is Israel's attempt to limit gatherings at Al-Aqsa and a dispute over land ownership in Sheikh Jarrah in Jerusalem.
    The religious site is equally important for Muslims and Jews who address it as Temple Mount. The recent clashes erupted after Israeli Police, on April 12, prevented people from gathering at the Damascus Gate Plaza in East Jerusalem that's under Israel's control. The Damascus Gate Plaza has been a popular gathering place for Palestinian Muslims during the month of Ramzan. It escalated when, on April 16, Israel imposed a limit of only 10,000 people who can pray at Al-Aqsa, and thousands of Palestinians were sent back.
    Everyone is sharing their opinions on social media over the recent clashes and taking sides. Just recently, Indian actor Swara Bhasker also shared her opinions which landed her in troubled waters. Swara sided with Palestinians and called Israel a terrorist state. She tweeted, “Israel is an apartheid state. Israel is a terrorist state. Nuff said. #AlAqsa #FreePalestine.”

    In another tweet, she wrote, “The cause of #Palestine and justice for Palestinians isn’t an Islamic cause.. at least it shouldn’t solely be that.. it is first & foremost an anti-imperialist, anti-colonial & anti-apartheid cause.. & that’s why it should concern us all, even non-Muslims. #FreePalestine #AlAqsa”
    © Twitter/Swara Bhasker
    She started to face backlash for her tweets and it all kinda blew up after her latest tweet. She wrote, “Dear Israel... If the Indian right-wing is supporting you... you know you are doing something wrong! Damn wrong. #IndiaWithIsrael #FreePalestine.”
    © Twitter/Swara Bhasker
    Her tweets have offended many people who are siding by Israel and they are trolling her left, right and centre. People called her dumb and felt that she has no knowledge about the conflict and she is just tweeting to be in the news while a few addressed her as a silent terrorist.

    Here are the reactions:
