Sony experiences outages on the PlayStation Network with problems still persisting on select games

If you’ve been having difficulties starting up games on your PS4 or PS5, then the problem isn’t at your end. The PlayStation Network suffered an outage that began on Friday and seems to still be causing a few problems. If you own a PS Vita, PS4 or a brand-new PS5, just know that these platforms are going to be affected by the outage. According to reports by Engadget and The Verge, it seems that some games are affected while others remain fully playable. 

Sony's PlayStation Network experiences outages on Friday and Saturday

An update on the PlayStation Network page states that ‘some services are experiencing issues’. Account management and the PlayStation store seem to be safe. The only category that seems to still be experiencing issues is Gaming and Social. Sony has had a few problems with the PlayStation Network, with the most notable being the 2011 PSN hack. While this isn't at the level of that issue, it is still a big problem. Engadget has reported that games like Minecraft and Call of Duty: Warzone were not accessible. On the other hand, Fortnite seemed to be running just fine. 

 

Sony had also earlier experienced a short outage on PSN on February 10th. We’re not sure how bad the issue is, at the moment, but we should be hearing something regarding the problem soon. In the meantime, if you’re looking for a PS5 in India, you could be waiting till the second half of the year. You may want to read more about that here. And, in case you’ve already bought your PS5, you’ll be happy to hear that Sony is looking to grant users access to the locked M.2 expansion slot this summer via a firmware update. You can read more about that here.

First ever drone-delivered kidney is no worse for wear

Drone delivery really only seems practical for two things: take-out and organ transplants. Both are relatively light and also extremely time sensitive. Well, experiments in flying a kidney around Baltimore in a refrigerated box have yielded positive results — which also seems promising for getting your pad thai to you in good kit. The test flights were conducted by researchers at the University of Maryland there, led by surgeon Joseph Scalea. He has been frustrated in the past with the inflexibility of air delivery systems, and felt that drones represent an obvious solution to the last-mile problem. Scalea and his colleagues modified a DJI M600 drone to carry a refrigerated box payload, and also designed a wireless biosensor for monitoring the organ while in flight. After months of waiting, their study was assigned a kidney that was healthy enough for testing but not good enough for transplant. Once it landed in Baltimore, the team loaded it into the container and had it travel 14 ...
