Samsung: mostly Korea, TMSC: mostly Taiwan, Intel: Israel, U.S., etc... Globalfoundries: Dresden, Singapore, U.S... The only company I see with a lot of fabs in China is SMIC, and they're at 40nm, so they sure aren't making the X

I'm not the strongest person. I probably don't have the ability to beat your face in if you welsh on a deal, and if you go nuts I'm at a bit of a disadvantage. I do have one attribute, though. I can say "no" to so

Flash doesn't just have a set list, he uses his general intelligence exhaustively during games - and he still loses a lot from being too predictable, too routine, producing the same responses to the same stimuli - even though his macro

Well, if you build enough to be safe against just about everything, your build will lose against any build which is properly executed. If you play the numbers and just have set builds which counter the most popular builds you might face, t
