    Someone in his circle must have told him Taiwan is part of China.

      I hope to god Trump literally says “Lotsa people don’t know this but Taiwan is part of China…” Trump is horrible and his second term will be a nightmare but the least there will be an insane amount batshit humor.

    Doing this while not properly allocating the astronomical amount of funding that the semiconductor industry would need in the US is in-character and hilariously foolish.

    The US could do so much for the world/themselves if they’d just invest in open source RISC-V manufacturing and R&D inside of the US. But they only understand corporatist-style handouts and amasssing warchests of proprietary technology. It’s even more shortsighted than shipping your manufacturing overseas and having an enemy nation manufacture all of your critical tech hardware while foolishly glossing over the security ramifications of that plan.

      He wants to force the production to move to America in order to bypass tariffs.

      It can’t without the skilled workforce though. Nothing magically speeds up building a skilled workforce in the US either.

          Folks, the bourgeois, they’re no good everyone is saying it. All these workers, very handsome workers come up to me and say, Comrade Trump there is a specter haunting Europe, and you know what, they’re right. These bourgeois are very nasty people very very rude and very unfair to the workers. They are stealing our surplus value and no one is doing anything about it. The proletariat comes up to me everyday and says, Comrade Trump will you lead the revolution? And I gotta turn to them and say, Look the instruments of capitalism will be used to bring about its destruction believe me you gotta trust me on this one. The means of production, obama never wanted to seize them. Well guess what? I’m seizing them. Landlords? They’re done for folks. Everyone told me they said, Comrade Trump you won’t be the vanguard of the revolution and they would laugh, the media laughed the democrats laughed, guess whose laughing now? a-little-trolling

      I would be absentee, pursuing my hobbies, having to be briefed on the strategic elements and all of the security constantly. Only to support China and use the military for humanitarian efforts. Advocate for renewables at every step. Then I would abdicate ASAP if I were so lucky as to be given the option to not be assassinated, but I’d negotiate up to the full president’s salary

          hell yeah what are you getting? I got a 7800x3d, rtx 4070 super and 64 GB RAM. I figured since my last PC lasted over a decade I go all in and hope my new lasts almost that long too.

            Nice!

            I’m getting 32GB RAM to start (1 stick so I can expand to 128GB eventually) + Ryzen 7950X + 4TB m2 SSD

            then when I have the money, I’ll upgrade my GTX 1070 to a 24GB 7900 XTX GPU

            Hope we all get the computer power we need!

            I’ll try running some local AI as well

            About lasting a decade, I’m thinking the exact same thing! Hopefully this one will last even longer than that, I mean, my PC from 2013 still runs most games from nowadays and there is only so much room for heavier games and applications
