    I recently saw gamers nexus’ Intel tour. It was like seeing a sci-fi movie, it’s incredible how advanced the stuff they do is. I also found it incredible how much it takes to build a chip… It takes about 2-3 months from wafer to chip.

      It takes about 2-3 months from wafer to chip.

      After spending 3-4 years building the factory and even more time finding and training staff.

      But, sure, tarriff the hell out of things that can’t be made domestically for (optomistacally) half a decade. That’ll certainly make it happen instantly…

      /fucking morons.
