No no no, see, DNS is bad, that’s the whole point. No touchy.
Can’t have any of that neoliberal stuff, gotta delete the hosts file.
Ah, you’re right, I should just look up IP addresses in my NAT table. Maybe I should add comments to it so I know which IP is which.
“You wanna put that in a memo and label it shit I already know?”
Well then you just take whatever you get, it’s website roulette.
See? If you don’t like DNS, you don’t have to use DNS, it’s not so hard.
And IPv6 won’t be that much harder, it’s only… uh… 32 hex digits you’ll have to remember, for each website. No big deal.
I mean… OK then just remember the IP addresses of the sites you use and don’t use the domain names?
The public use case.
The Z80 (which was the core processor of the TI-8x calculators) was only just discontinued last year. Lots of old chip designs find uses in embedded devices and consumer electronics.
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
Yeah, it’s more than just the fabrication machines, it’s a massive logistics network.
Maybe. Some of the older fabrication is still in heavy production use (e.g. 28nm, 16nm, 7nm):
These produce a lot of the chips that go into everything electronic, things like bus controllers and timing ICs, which are needed in higher volumes than CPUs and GPUs. But I kind of doubt the older fab technology will be a priority to build in the new facility.
TSMC isn’t just a single factory production line that gets upgraded to the latest and greatest every year. It’s a collection of many fabrication technologies that has grown and developed organically over time. While it will be helpful to build a new facility with the benefit of lessons learned in Taiwan, it will not be possible to completely replicate what that original facility is.
All of them.
The US plants may be coming online but it will still be years before they’re at production capacity, and they’ll probably never have all of the same production capabilities. The chip fabrication lines in Taiwan have been decades in development and growth.
Sports is boring. The games are vaguely entertaining if you’re actually playing them, but watching? Washing dishes is more engaging.
Hell, CSPAN is a better watch.
This breaks the economy.
If the US defaults on its loans, its creditability drops, which will probably destabilize the global value of the US$. China and Russia will benefit most. Every nation with financial ties to the US will suffer for it.
When trying to understand why certain decisions are made, follow the money. Donald Trump is a foreign asset.
Dependent on federal money.
Hard to do anything in an elected government if you weren’t elected.
The genuine commies are totally fine. It’s the authoritarian apologists that need to fuck right off.
no shit son
