Sony was at the top of the world and while their design of the PS2 was unorthodox still became the best selling console of all time with a fantastic game library and great graphics for the time. Sony wanted to follow the same philosophy for the PS3 hardware design and that was exactly what they did, only times where different and designing all the chips like they did on the two previous generations wasn't really feasible anymore. Also the PS3 hit at literally the worst time, there was a tectonic shift about to happen, the thinking at the time was to offload some GPU workloads to heavily specialized units in the CPU they had low programmability but were powerful for some very specific workloads, but literally a few days before the PS3 launch NVIDIA released the 8000 series GPUs (Tesla) and it had unified shaders, and it introduced CUDA which meant GPUs were no longer just for graphics but could be used for others things as well (GPGPU) and basically made any other design obsolete overnight.

Just days after Russia invaded Ukraine, Durov wrote that Telegram was "increasingly becoming a source of unverified information," and he worried about the app being used to "incite ethnic hatred." Investors took profits on Friday while they could ahead of the weekend, explained Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research. Saturday and Sunday could easily bring unfortunate news on the war front—and traders would rather be able to sell any recent winnings at Friday’s earlier prices than wait for a potentially lower price at Monday’s open. The SC urges the public to refer to the SC’s I nvestor Alert List before investing. The list contains details of unauthorised websites, investment products, companies and individuals.
