Amazon Kindle Petit Color leaked, prototype reveals adjustable colour display and more
In terms of size, the Kindle Petit Color appears smaller than the standard Kindle from 2022, making it potentially lighter and easier to carry around. Additionally, the device's pricing hasn't been confirmed yet, but it is expected to be more affordable than the Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition, which launched at around $280 in the US last year. If Amazon sticks to that plan, the Petit Color could become a more accessible entry point for anyone curious about colour e-reading.Finally, the leak doesn't confirm an exact release date, but it's speculated that the Kindle Petit Color could launch in autumn 2025. As always, with unverified prototypes, there's a chance the final product may differ — or may never be released at all. Still, if these details are accurate, the Kindle Petit Color could offer a fresh, budget-friendly option for Kindle fans.- Ends

‘Do not apply if not highly intelligent': Blunt LinkedIn job listing sparks debate
A job listing on LinkedIn has gone viral after it explicitly warned applicants not to apply if they are not "highly intelligent and hardworking.' The post, which was for a sales and analyst role at a remote company, was shared on Reddit, where users questioned both its tone and expectations. The job description asked candidates to apply only if they can work under pressure without losing precision.(Representational) The listing claimed that in its previous hiring round, 'more than 5,000 candidates applied' but 'zero' were found to be both highly intelligent and hardworking. In an apparent attempt to weed out unqualified applicants, the company declared it was now targeting the 'top 1%' of talent in India" for its US-based clients. The job description asked candidates to apply only if they can work under pressure without losing precision. However, the post's boldness and blunt demands drew attention and also sparked criticism. Many Reddit users argued that the role seemed to bundle three separate, high-demand jobs into one position. 'Any SaaS company would have three different functions for these roles and hire the right skills for each role,' one commenter noted. Others called it a reflection of an increasingly competitive job market. 'It is normal in the upcoming IT market. It's gonna be worse and more competitive, especially for companies that haven't touched a billion yet,' wrote one user. Some speculated the tone came from frustration with past hires, while others questioned who would even apply to such a job. "Looks like they have had some bad experiences with the candidates before. But who will apply for such job descriptions anyway?" said one of them.

Amazon has announced its latest sale event, dubbed 'Mega Electronics Days,' which will run from 8 to 15 August 2025. The week-long promotion features markdowns on a range of gadgets, including smartwatches, headphones, and other electronic products. One of the most significant deals in this sale is on the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra 5G. The 12GB RAM and 256GB storage variant of the handset, originally priced at ₹ 1,34,999, is now available for ₹ 79,999, a direct reduction of 40 per cent. Additionally, Amazon Pay ICICI Bank credit card holders can earn cashback on the purchase: Prime members receive five per cent (up to ₹ 2,399), while other cardholders get three per cent. The cashback offer excludes EMI transactions and purchases made through Amazon Business. The Galaxy S24 Ultra comes with a 6.8-inch Quad HD+ Dynamic AMOLED display offering up to 2,600 nits peak brightness and a 120Hz refresh rate. The screen is protected by Gorilla Glass Armour, designed to reduce reflections by up to 75 per cent under various lighting conditions. Powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset with Adreno 740 graphics, the device is paired with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 4.0 storage. It runs on One UI 7, based on Android 15, with Samsung confirming an upgrade to Android 16-based One UI 8 in the near future. The company has pledged five more years of operating system updates for the model. The camera system includes a 200MP main sensor with optical image stabilisation, a 12MP ultra-wide camera, a 10MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom, and a 50MP periscope lens capable of 5x zoom.

Will crypto be used in GTA 6? Viral post about Bitcoin reignites speculation; fans spilt between excitement and concern
As anticipation for the next instalment of the wildly popular Grand Theft Auto series grows, fans are buzzing not only about the game's graphics and storyline but also about a potential new feature: cryptocurrency integration. A recent Reddit post sparked a lively discussion when a user asked, 'What are everyone's thoughts on crypto potentially being used in GTA 6? Good or bad?' According to Binance, the most recent wave of speculation was sparked by a viral tweet from a Crypto Twitter influencer known only as 'Gordon'. With close to 500,000 followers, Gordon asserted that 'GTA 6 will support cryptocurrency payments,' specifically naming Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDT (Tether) as confirmed features. Crypto integration: A new frontier for GTA 6? The concept of adding cryptocurrency to GTA VI aligns well with the game's immersive criminal world, potentially introducing new gameplay elements like decentralised transactions and blockchain-based collectables. Fans see this as a reflection of crypto's growing role in everyday life and an innovative step forward in gaming. Fans react to crypto integration in GTA 6 As soon as the post surfaced on social media, it quickly went viral on the internet, and fans reacted to the post, 'In the story with a fictional crypto? Yes, they will do a parody of crypto bros and NFTs. What people don't understand about making a crypto game is that would drain money OUT of the ecostem. Big gaming studios won't let that happen, look at valve with cs/dota items, they intentially make you keep the money in their system, if you could play the game, spend some money, make some more by playing/trading and then exchange the currency for dollars or worse a different game's currency than that would be a loss for rockstar.' 'There wont be cryptos in GTA 6,' one commented. 'There will be crypto references in gta 6 no question but unlikely will be a means of purchasing definitely not real crypto but investing in mock crypto will very likely make its way into the game.' 'I hope there isn't much. There's enough of it irl to try and avoid.' To stay updated on the stories that are going viral, follow Indiatimes Trending.
