Same insanity with any framework computer, bc of China lurking around Taiwan
Why framework specifically? TSMC makes the chips for all AMD/Apple CPUs and all Nvidia/AMD/Intel/Apple GPUs.
Yeah lol they also have a literal self destruct that will destroy the fab process in case of Chinese (or other) invasion corporate or national
If this ever gets triggered, the world economy is fucked for years or even decades to come.
This is my only hope as an INTC bag holder.
Does it even matter? Just opening the door of a clean room is enough to make the whole thing useless. Also, even without opening the door, how does one even run an ASML device without their support even without remote shutdown? It’s not a $350M toaster. That doesn’t sound realistic.
Not to mention all the software will be deleted if the military shows up. These things don’t run in the cloud for security reasons.
All of which goes in the AI bullshit the rich actually care about.
When China invade Taiwan, shit will go bananas.
Oh gods, you’re right! D:
I need a laptop for work at 3F. I was hoping to eventually afford a Framework.
F*ck those nazi apologists. Instead of framework rather get a linux laptop e.g. starlabs. Oh, repairability… Yeah, it hurts me too.

Framework donates to nazis. When their community brought this up, they defended giving money to nazis.
The full saga starts here.

While it’s still awful, I believe they donated hardware, not money.
So… They support a lot of open source developers and you think some of them are nazis?
You’re so right. Financially supporting nazis is akshually totally fine sometimes. /s
I’ve donated money to lemmy instances before. If someone posts nazi shit on lemmy, do you consider me to be someone that financially supports Nazis?
Also the claim is that someone associated with a project has said some far right shit, not specifically a Nazi. I got a racist uncle, does that make me a Nazi to you?
They’ve done more than donate. They also rigged some stuff to benefit Hyperland developer specifically from something they didn’t qualify for as well or some such.
But it wasn’t finances though, it was hardware…
Oh dear… I’m in Denmark too…
However, Valve has warehouses of Steam Decks here in Europe. When I bought mine 5 years ago it came from some East European country… I think it was Czech…
There’s a good chance that none of the Valve hardware comes from the US at all. I’m not really worried. I am worried about the price; RAM effects everything…
“East European” “Czech”
Oh boy, hope a Czech person doesn’t overhear that lol…
It’s a common misconception here in Denmark that any country east and southeast of Germany is Eastern Europe.
A lot of people still go by the NATO vs Warsaw Pact division that we grew up with. I still have to envision Czechia as the western part of Czechoslovakia.
Exactly
As a Swede. Czhechia is east in our worldview as well. But I don’t think we think lesser of east Europeans in general. That time has past.
Cool, never seen a Stealth screenshot before!

Call of Battlefield: WWIII is gonna be lit
Of course you’d be able to purchase it. It’d be your American right.
To quote a certain mr. Carlin.
“They aren’t rights if they can be taken away.”
Jokes aside, selling shit is America’s bag. That is all America wants, is to sell stuff to everybody. And to buy people’s stuff cheaply. Sell and buy. It’s all America does, whether it’s goods, services, peoples lives. And whether people want to buy or sell those things, America demands it.
Be more worried about GTA VI. We have a whole year of this stupid ass Trump fucking up the world. Can’t play GTA if I’m fighting in a civil war.
As a trade unionist, I would say fuck R!* Fuck them with a spiky metal cactus.
When WW3 comes out before GTA6.
But seriously, fuck rockstar. Orc studio treating their workers like shit, what else is new.
Because of the guilt, or because of the nuclear war?
