Oh man, you just unlocked memories of my Mom’s 8086 back in the late 80s… her first pc was an Apple but the software… there was more for the Intel. I remember so much disk inserting and printer interface issues and the DOS. We had like boxes and binders of those huge discs…
Intel can go anywhere. To the highest bidder and the lowest cost.
or they will just move overseas.
Right? Good Luck America. FAFO.
there is no real rationale. Trump is all impulse, no long range thinking/planning.
That is what the tariffs are for and Apple has promised to invest a shit ton of money into manufacturing those phones here… so they can raise the prices to the ceiling of the tariffs imposed on China, India, Thailand, Indonesia … etc. There are no other smart phones manufactured in the US so they will effectively… have a monopoly.
the problem is that those people actually exist and post. so it is hard to see the difference btw the monopoly/technocratic feudalists and the average sarcastic poster. being naive about that group is probably your first mistake. sorry for the heavy eyeroll and expression of disgust. Maybe find another way to have “fun?”

Exactly what we need in a bubble. There is no there there… okay, no profit there; just a big bottomless money pit and a bunch of tech edgelords fantasizing.
Wow. I didn’t know that dial up was still a thing in the US
