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.
Lol, what the fuck does he hope to accomplish with this? What the hell does he think is going to happen when his
base can’t get their jalapeno poppers any more?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.
Develop Capacity?
No investment in personnel, only tariff!Except maybe… Immigration?
The ICE camps are right there…
Lmao, is this seriously going to happen?
God willing, nobody will step in to correct this.
This must be lathed hard. Pray everyday for it
I have never used this phrase unironically before, but
LET HIM COOK
??? Taiwan is your unsinkable aircraft carrier why are you doing this? I mean yes Mr. President, brilliant decision, I think you should sanction them even more actually
“they said 100% tariffs was all the tariffs you could have. well, they were wrong, Trump tariffs go to 200, 300, 10000%! they should have bought american!”
Gamers are gonna be hit hard by this. So many things will… But fuck gamers in particular
literally everyone will be affected by this in every way. There is no way in hell this is happening lmao. Absolutely insane. Like is he placing tariffs on NVIDIA GPUs??? AMD CPUs??? IT MAKES NO SENSE
This coming off the back of deepseek shaking shit up… Damn near every American is cursing the day he learned the word tariff. Wtf is going on
>Trump hears about Chinese AI hurting the rich
>Trump places tariff on the Republic of China
His brain fluid is Big Mac sauce, his brain tissue is 7.5% prion disease. Allah willing he disbands the US before walking directly off a cliff
Americans about to be reminded of how shit intel was the last time they had total control of the consumer CPU market
im using this emoji as a flashlight to navigate my apartment at midnight btw
I am continually vindicated in my opinion that Trump would be better than Kamala for the world at large (before any of you comprehension-lacking dinguses comment: Better does not mean good)
Lmfao it’s as if these people don’t know how to run an Empire. Half of us here would do a better job.
I’d resign try to permanently resign from the security council. Pretty sure all it takes is a president and an ambassador appointment to pull off.
This empire is being ran like the IT morons at my workplace, where every time they fail, it is a spectacular trainwreck that grinds the company to a halt.
Half of us here would do a better job.
I’d be driving it into a wall first chance I get though
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
Accelerating de-dollarization to levels previously considered purely theoretical.
I made some more popcorn, what did I miss?
Nvidia is gonna have another rough day
LET HIM COOK!TaiLOST
Donaldo trump please no i havent upgraded my pc since 2013 please dont make it any more expensive
Literally this is why I bought a new PC last month. My old computer was also from 2013
doing this next month, luckily I’m not in the US
and same, pc from 2013 lol
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
I upgraded from an i5 4690k and gtx 970 lol. I had to underclock my 970 a few years ago to keep it alive
damn, thankfully my brother gave me a 1070, I had a 760 before which was on its last days too lol
and my current processor is a i7-2600 + 24 GB DDR3 1333 mhz
