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

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 16 points 2 years ago

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

[-] hry@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

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

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.

If you live in the US probably not.

[-] Heavybell@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years 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.
