From chip shortages to blue light, in the next 10 minutes, we'll get the lowdown on what's up with the latest tech.

I'm Bethany Van Delft, and this is the 10 News.

You probably noticed it's nearly impossible to buy a PlayStation 5 these days,

even though the console was released back in November more than five months ago. So what's keeping PS5s and tons of other high-demand

electronics off the shelves these days? A global chip shortage. Oh man. Chips are those teeny

little wafers that make up the memory and processing units of most modern computers.

During COVID, people have been stuck at home with nothing to do except work on their laptops,

spend time on their smartphones, or play video games.

This led to an increased demand for electronics that require these chips.

Pair that with the already high demand for electronics and a shrinking chip making industry,

and what you have is a global chip shortage in a nutshell.

Where's my chips?

Oh, we're not having chips tonight, Munchki. Sorry.

I want my chips.

So what's next? Some people in the tech

industry have expressed optimism that things could return to normal relatively soon, while others think it could be

2022 before that happens. Have you ever found it hard to go to sleep after watching a show on Netflix?

Do your grownups have a screen cut off time before bed?

Guess what?

There's a good reason why.
