AMD should be the next monopoly. Let Intel die in peace.

What he means is the feature of having a lightweight OS with no documentation running under the OS you as a customer is running.

Why is it in anyone’s best interest to keep it as a monopoly if it can’t pay its bills? Its products are going to stagnate either way, injecting money is useless.

Sure they’re down the hall, next to the Cobol room.

Hahaha I thought this was the onion and the button was the big fugly thing that covers the whole bottom

While these projects will never succeed, there’s a lot of money into lobbying for getting them funds for technical analysis, environmental impact and other paper work related things.

Worst things that can happen is they produce a budget out of their asses, and one month into construction there’s an oopsies and actually the budget is more than estimated. 5 years in, we’re 10% complete but already spent 500% of the budget. Like any airport, hospital or rail project.

At least it wasn’t comic sans

Then bad videos should make it worse

People talk about Apple only but every competitive chip designer (which Intel is not) depends on TSMC, so they all get set back.

But TSMC gets to close, and what’s more dangerous for the political stability of Taiwan is that since they don’t have oil they lose West military protection.

Not all foundries are the same. Taiwan is leading the way for quite a long time.

There’s a lot of money in both intellectual property and physical manufacturing. Trying to do an analogy with software is unfair because in software most of the costs is labor, and once the first copy is made you can make and sell as many extra copies as you want. Physical manufacturing needs machine maintenance, and expensive materials in this case.

Throw it down and bring real democracy like in Switzerland

Or throw it down and bring anarchism

None of these are realistic, so…

I meant to post my reply here but it’s on top level instead https://lemmy.world/comment/13066234

While most of the world’s people continue to live in Asia, much of the increase in hunger since 2017 occurred in Africa and South America. The FAO’s 2017 report discussed three principal reasons for the recent increase in hunger: climate, conflict, and economic slowdowns.

In 2022, Asia was home to 55% (402 million) of the people in the world affected by hunger, while more than 38% (282 million) lived in Africa.

Sounds like a 3rd world ultra capitalist creepy story. I grew up in center right 3rd world (Brazil) and that would make it a truthful but funny snectode.

Now I’m in center center 1st world (Australia) and we’ve got passed a law a few months ago to not bother employee for bullshit.

I though why did we fn need a law for that, then your story reminds me.

Maybe you need arch btw

Yes Boomer

I’m almost 50 myself, come on

Ah yes, democracy is a healthy and fully functioning institution.

You just got confused who’s sponsoring it, that’s understandable.

There’s always start ups, their role in the ecosystem is to continuously hire new grads that have been jobless for months at a pittance. Once these new grads get bigger than their ponds they swim upstream to the carnage consultancies, that will gradually allocate their "newly nominated senior developers ’ to increasingly bigger and bigger companies while syphoning their shining earnings. Once they are again bigger than THATv ponds and fulfill contractual exclusiveness noon compete deals, these developers migrate to their well known corporations, where they mature for 30 years with a stagnated salaries but augmented areas in responsibilities and diminished efforts until they die - aham - retire.

All measures available: strong worded letter.

The peeeeeen!

Is mightier

Than the sworrrrerrrrrrrrrrrd!

/S

But how would the bots reply? That’s what generates foot traffic, which is what brings ads, which is what is not enough to pay for the bills!

Perfect business model, I had a VC review it and got high marks
