Funny how it surprised me when I moved the same file to the folder and got no error message. I still think this is a bug though Bahamut.Ravael said: » What makes a nice person do crappy things to people? Self-righteousness? An utter lack of social awareness?

"chip shortage" is underselling and/or conflating multiple issues and sounds more threatening than anything.
OEMs almost certainly get first dibs and SKU prioritization due to pre-existing contracts
It's unreal that almost a year later and the PS5 is still in shortage. I need a 2nd for my living room :|
They say its not going to get better until at least next year.
Umm no
I mean probably not 5 years, but yeah. The ripple out goes much further than the immediate.
They were already falling behind on silicon, couple that with no workers, and shipping issues and mining and increased demand for literally everything having computers in it now. It's just a cascade. They will be behind for a while. I'm just glad that there isn't any "must have" game on my list for PS5 yet. I'm a little disappointed by the usable storage on the system, so if it doesn't take an eternity for them to release an upgraded system then maybe I'll be able to hold out. At this rate, just getting the stupid things made in the first place is a higher priority for them than increasing memory storage, though, so who knows how many years that would take.

Storage is going to be hardcore *** now/next.
New damned crypto runs on harddrives. It's about to implode. RAM going up, CPUs going up GPUs going up storage going to become impossible. All bad things. And that's all before the escalating trade wars because literally everything is made in china. Rough times ahead. I would consider FF7R intergrade a must have!

With God of War being expectedly delayed until next year, there is no rush for me to get a PS5. My PS4 is still in good working order, and I have a nice backlog.

I need a 2nd for my living room :| Some of the hardware reps that I work with from china still aren't even back open for production. Parts shortages will continue if that's not just a singular event, and I'm betting it isn't. It isn't a singular event.
I read an article last week, its focus was on Ford's pivot to the future. It touched on car computer chips. They still use 80nm dies! Surely fabs this ancient will have no production glitches but they are affected by international shortages of materials just as much as the most modern, under 10nm, fabs. Everything is in short supply. The whole world paused production of everything due to the plague. As we slowly slip out of that pause production increases but demand meanwhile has skyrocketed. Supply and demand. Demand outstrips supply and prices go up. Elementary my dear Watson. Economists predict 2 - 3 years until equalization.... Asura.Chiaia said: » This update sucked! The update following the anniversary campaign always seems underwhelming each year. Nothing too exciting in this one, but last month I was able to finish grinding out the 10k job points for an Almace augment. I turn in my final 669 points on Sunday.
