    Wasn’t Biden’s chips act meant to encourage chips and semiconductor manufacturing to be shored in the US? What’s he doing nuking everything with tariffs? Surely, the oligarchs who bankrolled him won’t appreciate this.

      Yes Biden’s chips act did create a ton of new investments in chip building in the US. Only for Trump and Maga to kill it upon taking power. Now he’s going to claim the credit for all the investments made from the time of Biden’s chips act.

    “Likely”? What kind of pathetic simping language is that. There is no “likely” about prices going up from such a move.

    If he wants to give up the supercomputing race this badly he can also just drop the export restrictions on high performance GPUs to China when he’s at it.

    This is an amazing idea.

    I’m sure manufacturers will have e their new supply chains and manufacturing plants ready to go in a few weeks.

    I am kinda hoping that our history books would read:

    “…Jen-Hsun ordered a successful hit on Trump. Despite clear evidence, he was found not guilty by the jury, and news networks were very lenient. Those who threaten the gold, are liquidated. Fortunately, the working class still overthrew Jeff Bezos and the other overlords, despite their merciless nature.”

        As long as he is alive he can be propped against a podium to say racist, upsetting shit, then Stephen Miller and more clandestine moneyed interests like David Koch and Peter Theil pull the strings of the party and movement. Its probably better for operators heavily invested in Trump if he’s less intellectually competent.
