While I believe you are mostly correct, a technology that allows for competition is better than one that does not (eg TWTR,FB) Edit added: email is an example. Pain in the butt to not be on MSFT, GOOG, etc but at least it’s possible.

Couple good quotes: “The 4th generation Epyc Genoa launch marks the 3rd consecutive generation where AMD beats Intel in the majority performance metrics. “ “SemiAnalysis believes the gap between Genoa and Sapphire Rapids is larger than the

I honestly think the government prefers it. Both app stores are American, and fewer people to call when they need a favor done.

The two big oceans on either side of us helped quite a bit. Not being an easy target of your enemies might matter more than any given policy.

Nvidia has shot itself in the foot on this round. Getting used to the crazy demand because of Crypto + Covid has left them a little off-center I think. Regardless of what AMD does (although I hope the Reg is right on their pricing thoughts

That train of thought used to be true, but with the EU and Russia, it seems not to be true as much. Will be interesting to see how this plays out. The US can get along without Apple (although 401K's might take a big hit), but China wit

But the cooling.... Seriously, that was great math you did there, and a neat way to think about volume. That's a standard shipping container [0], which is less than I thought it would be. [0] - https://www.mobilemodularconta

Select "Silence unknown callers" and you're done. Last month I had a flurry of spam texts and calls. I moved the slider to the "enable" side a few weeks ago and have had zero issues since.
