Trump to impose 25% to 100% tariffs on Taiwan-made chips, impacting TSMC
-
That’s because syphilis hasn’t mushed your brain
-
Trump is basically a sad fat kid in a classroom that just cries and screams when shit doesn't go his way and then ruins everything for everyone else.
-
100%
It’s as crazy as foreigners holding Chinese stocks
-
Yes but people will pay redhat Linux to use a distro with support. Also almost the entire US internet server infrastructure runs on Linux.
So yeah a company can provide an open source product with commercial support
-
Give it 6 months and Amazon will be running this model for you "serverless" with a code name making it seem like their own product.
-
Issue with that, they would love to have "chipless" cars they can repair with a screwdriver and a wrench.
-
That was interesting but it didnt talk about the export ban. It was more like an overview of the Taiwanese economy and how the chip industry relates to it.

He's probably has had dementia for a while, that's where his lean and dumptruck ass come from.

Has it ever been?
-
The US definitely doesn't give a shit about all those countries.
But my take is the US is doing it so that it can continue its global dominance. Russia or China will happily take its place if the US relents. Are you willing to take a backseat to China or Russia? Doubtful.

They will say that was the work of the democrates as a last 'fuck you'.
-
You mean we finally can get a gpu?
-
They are pocketing the higher margins in countries without tariffs.
-
To be fair, we mostly have examples of how free trade reduces prices. But this reduction in prices usually wasn't instantaneous and perceivable by ordinary folks. Because corporations wouldn't hand out the savings to consumers until the very slow market force of competition forced them to.
Tariffs will make everything more expensive and even if they are eventually culled, stuff will not become suddenly cheap again. -
I mean Puerto Rico is literally part of the US and that doesn't seem to matter for them.....
-
He doesn't have the ability to directly set prices, no. He could massively subsidise things he wants to be cheaper. Do you think that's going to happen though?
-
Best I can do is a GPU box with a rock in it
-
Does that always happen? I cant think of examples but yeah what you say makes sense
-
But that wouldn't make billions of chicken appear into existence. The eggs would be cheaper and there would shortsges.
-
I'm sorry, I'm not sure I'm following your train of thought....
Are there currently egg shortages? Subsidising something doesn't mean there's less of it, means the government pays someone in the production stream to keep prices low. Like what happens with gasoline just about everywhere.
