    It’s nice to see access to one of most important technology of the 21st century not at the hands of a single country whims

    Most people would’ve hoped for it to be from Europe but instead of working to free themselves from USA control over such important tech they regulate random stuff and make themselves look like fools.

    I strongly believe a joint cooperation of the European union could produce a powerful CPU, GPU but they’re sitting on their butts doing nothing. Shame…

      Dutch company makes the machines that shoot US chip designs via lasers via German mirrors to Japanese/German/Taiwanese silicon wafers that are further processes by Japanese machines in a Taiwanese factory.

        Care to elaborate ? More competition is always better. Usa being able to control who can and can not make CPUs is scary and heavily impact the sovereignty of all countries. Especially, in our modern world.

          Personally I don’t have an issue with impacting sovereignty of countries like China or Russia, since their idea of sovereignty means suppression of others.

          I don’t know what makes you think the US is controlling the chip sector, because it ain’t us. Almost all of the world’s general use chips are made in fabs in Asia. Why do you think the rest of the world is trying stop an invasion of Taiwan by China? The US is trying to bring BACK fabs ASAP because of that risk.

          Also, if you weren’t aware, nothing is stopping any other country from creating their own chip designs and having them fabricated.

              Being banned from use in the US due to having exploits and backdoors doesn’t stop the company from selling elsewhere. They sell a product the government doesn’t trust, so they can fix it, or not selling the US. Sounds like a Huawei problem.

                Wonder what made them stop making ARM chips and forced to make their own . Am sure they just got bored.

                  ARM stopped selling them designs. That’s a British company. When the entire world isn’t buying your stupid bullshit, you’d THINK you’d give up and try something different. Instead you have bot-like sympathizers like you buying their bullshit and defending them on the internet lol.

                    It’s okay. You can still go back and read a few articles. I am all for acknowledging my mistakes but this ain’t one. Please educate yourself.
