  • he managed to hurt rich people so he'll always be good in my book.

    sure the damage he did was next infinitesimally small and non-enduring to the rich; but you have to take whatever victories you can get no matter how small because that's all you're going to get when it comes to the rich. lol

  • it takes billions of dollar and nearly decades to build fabs; which are the only places chips can be produced; that's why western hegemonic forces like the american gov't or the international monetary fund will only help build very few, to ensure that there's no viable competition but enough extra capacity in cases it's ever needed.

  • the de-regulation from 40 years ago means that american consumer carriers are always decades behind and that was okay until they saw that made huawaei so far ahead of them, so american the carriers employed their leverage with the trump administration to slow down huawei and it's been working; american carriers and their ecosystems brands have been catching up on the world stage to huawei since the embargo and china is doing its best to keep hauwei afloat with this new chip.

    it's all of the moneyed technology focused interests in the world versus hauwei, so huawei is going to lose if china doesn't step up more; but if china does too much to keep huawei alive, they run the strong chance of pissing off more of the rich and then all of the moneyed interest in the world (tech or not) will be against china and china would lose in that situation.

  • we should start counting down to when the sabotage comes; china only has a handful of places that can make these chips and a well placed explosive; management suddenly jumping out of windows; or people demanding fair labor practices/pay should ground the whole thing a stop long enough to guarantee that china will never catch up.

  • until it suffers a catastrophic accident that's totally going to happen and then china will have to play catchup for at least ten years to reach the level that they're at now where, by then, they'll be far behind. lol

  • I also have this question. Except it seems to me like hexbear is full of liberals not reactionaries.

    i would have guessed teenage libertarians based on the juvenile humor and strong coordination to derail liberal topic threads
