PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X Might Become Even Rarer as Chip Prices Soar
As the global semiconductor chip shortage continues, price hikes for GPUs and CPUs may lead to both Sony‘s PlayStation 5 and Microsoft‘s Xbox Series X/S being even harder to purchase.

The semiconductor manufacturing powerhouse supplies some of the world’s largest brands, including Apple, Toyota, and AMD, which happens to in turn supply GPUs and CPUs for both Sony and Microsoft’s consoles.

R. Kelly’s First Male Accuser Testifies in Sex-Trafficking Trial
“That’s not it. That’s not it,” he said Kelly responded before asking him if he ever fantasized about having sex with men. He described how Kelly then “crawled down on his knees and proceeded to give me oral sex,” even though, “I wasn’t into it.” Afterward, “he told me to keep it between him and me,” he said. In a later episode, Kelly snapped his fingers to summon a naked girl from where she was hiding under a boxing ring to give Kelly and the witness oral sex, the man told the jury. He kept seeing Kelly after that because “I really wanted to make it in the music industry,” he said. The witness was testifying as part of a cooperation agreement stemming from his guilty plea in a separate case alleging he was part of a botched scheme to bribe a woman to not testify against Kelly.
