No, comics are the primary legitimate source of facts so I'm sure it's true.

I'm sure TSMC would become untenable if either the US stopped buying or selling to them, though I tend to disagree and think that not licensing US tech would kill them faster. I'm pretty sure that much of that tech is not available from anywhere else and would just cause a full stop of their business, at least for some time. It's easier to survive on lower revenue than it is on a fully shuttered assembly line.

There is likely a lot of US tech in that chip. TSMC is just a fab, they don't have a lot of their own technology, they buy thousands of pieces of tech from all over the world to make their chips. A lot of that comes from the US.

A smart businessman would make sure to tell them they need to leave anything pointy on the ground.

I am curious how you decide to make the leap from pianos to automobiles, though..

I know :-(. Let the enshittification proceed.

I'd much rather have upgradeable RAM and SSD thanks.

I did.

Well done, you are a better internet sleuth than me!

It's more the news media they are referring to, I think.

If they are using GPL code, shouldn't they also release their source code?
