Quietly? I feel like Ive been seeing this loudly across media for quite some time

[-] besbin@lemmy.ml 25 points 8 months ago

The reporter probably considered nothing less than a nuclear first strike a"loud" announcement 🤣

Inaccurate title. As the article states, they have major sanctions against them and are developing their domestic chip market out of necessity, frequently vocally condemning the sanctions.

[-] Quastamaza@lemmy.ml 20 points 8 months ago

this comes as no big surprise, given usa’s sanctions and bans.

[-] hry@lemmy.ml 5 points 8 months ago

yeah, its not like they had much choice. the article has a pretty weird framing

[-] assassinatedbyCIA@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

It’s an economist article. Of course it’s garbage.

I wonder if/when they are competitive, if I'll be able to buy a China desktop.

[-] RatherBeMTB@sh.itjust.works 4 points 8 months ago

If you live in the US probably not.

[-] Heavybell@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Yeah, if I lived in the US it wouldn't be a question. But seeing as there's no domestic chip manufacturing in my country there's no loyalty question for me; whatever tech I get, I'm ceding some power to a foreign state so it doesn't matter so much which I pick.

The way things are going they are probably coming up with some interesting ARM or RISCV stuff.

[-] Heavybell@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

That's what I was thinking, yeah.

But at what cost...?
