Good news for RISCV !

I actually bought a Huawei Matebook in February 2019 (2018 model) from the Microsoft store for just over $1300. You know, the MacBook ripoff one? It was just a few months before they were banned. Honestly, that thing is still a solid laptop.
Okay battery life, really good specs, super light, amazing display. Unfortunately heats up a lot and throttles under load, but not terrible. I mainly got it for music production with Ableton Live 10, and still use it for that. Gaming is meh but can play some games at modest settings. Good for Photoshop and Premiere. Great for basic computer use. It even barely had any bloatware installed. I suppose there could be some backdoor for spying as is often rumored, but it's really not something I am that concerned about.
I guess it's a shame they got banned. I feel like there's nothing else in the PC market like it. These days it seems like I'm better off buying a MacBook Pro given my hobbies.

But I was told China has a burgeoning tech sector ready to overtake the US at any moment, right yogthos?

Huge blow to Huawei, which is a firm I dislike.
It seems they can't buy x86-architecture processors from Intel and Amd. How can they make x86 💻?
If Windows arm will succeed in the far future (this is a big if for me), I wonder if Huawei can buy Mediatek chips for Windows arm 💻. I did a quick search. It seems Mediatek wanna design arm chips for 💻.
A Reuters article said Qualcomm licensed their 5g tech to Huawei. I guess not being able to buy from Qualcomm isn't a big issue for Huawei. Huawei has their own 5g tech.

Why can't they regulate capitalism when it comes to important shit.
...This article is about the US government doing exactly that. Did you read anything other than the headline?
They probably meant things like monopoly breakups, wage increases, lowering healthcare costs, you know, things that directly affect the average person. This isn't going to affect my life in any way whatsoever. This squabble is between governments, not us.
