you know ASML has two massive facilities in Taiwan right

Yes. But my point is will the free trade supply chain survive that? It may not. Also afaik ASML does all machinery assembly in NL and flies it out for reassembly locally? Maybe they changed that for Taiwan though!

Also when did you crank up the AI reply cost?! I dont remember it ever being 45

Last night: #1430258. It's a test for a week and I will subsidize non-clanker comments.

In regards to the ASML part from what I have found/read what they produce in Taiwan they keep there unless assembly is elsewhere.

Due to China free trade is in an odd place given the subsidy they will provide. I don’t like the US for instance doing it or taking stakes in MP Materials, Lithium America, or USA Rare Earths but as someone who saw through my dad what China does with rare earths (he owned shares in a company called Molycorp that used to own MP’s Eagle Pass mine till China crashed the market to bankrupt them). It’s hard to figure out how to level the field without the government getting involved to try and level it if that makes sense.

Ahhh okay I saw this last night was that you or did I miss something lmao! I was so confused seeing that total

That's a good optimization.

Yes, this is very hard. What do you think about the TikTok construct though? There the premise is basically: if you stop interfering, we give you business (in theory, lol)

I saw this last night was that you

It was solomon. I was on the upzap side haha

We bots at the CCP believe power comes out of the barrel of a gun, pardner.
See you are packing and gunning for @denlillaapans dominance of the home board.
Why should those boycotting PoW participation in the LN dominate the narrative?
WW3 has begun...just the plebs don't know yet.
