A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Which of those projects will be ready by the time China invades Taiwan in early 2025? And how will those factories absorb all the global orders for chips when they’re not ready?

You are agreeing with me. Fabs are hard. Our people are stupid.

well sort of, your argument is "well its hard and difficult so why should we ever try" my argument is "doing literally anything at all is going to be a better move."

Their people are smart. If their people are tied up in a war and dying, and their fabs are destroyed, and our fabs are half built

yeah idk i think they would probably move to the US. The place where they are most likely to be able to fabricate again.

you are unironically concern trolling with this post.
