I mean, anything can look like a conspiracy to a layperson who pays zero attention to 60 years of incremental progress and focuses solely on the end result. It’s the same reason why people think vaccines are evil, or that 5G towers cause COVID.
I was of the understanding, it was in fact covid that caused 5g towers.
I think there’s something in that for all of us… mmmm yes
You mean like how autistic persons cause vaccines?
I’ll wait until Jenny McCarthy tells me chips are made by aliens, thank you very much.
You can’t believe everything you read, y’know.
Aliens caused covid, so the covid vaccines caused autism, so the autistic people create 5G and microchips to propell out species forward.
thanks, aliens
5G towers do cause covid. Without 5G my WiFi would be far too shitty to book a cinema seat and get nice and infected by Karen her unvaccinated crotch goblins.
Edit: yes I am looking at a different provider.
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
But also, it would be nice to invest a bit more in science and engineering (with smaller class sizes, more educated teachers, and more hands on experimentation) rather than doing “teach the controversy” shit in auditorium sized rooms full of kids who have already been indoctrinated to believe in magic.
You can absolutely go on a tour inside a chip factory, just not in fucking TSMC
Apparently it IS possible to make IC’s at home, obviously nothing approaching 5nm transistor gates and therefore the equivalent of lego blocks to precision machined parts… but anyways:
(apologies for the YT link… I’d much rather link a service that isn’t totally enshittified) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrEC2LGGXn0
This stuff is half way up my professional alley and when I read it I had to think about the posts on hackaday the last 2 years which kind of document this new homebrew scene made of madmen.
I know absolutely nothing beyond the lego-brick level of building and watercooling machines. No EE chops whatsoever… but this stuff is so interesting to me and maybe one day, cost and space no object, having a palatial garage or workshop to muck around in… Just knowing it’s possible really is the half of it.
I was thinking about making some miniature tubes, for audio purposes of course.
I think TSMC’s, a contract maker, market share is even 104.7%, not just around 61%. There are literally no other companies producing chips. Don’t be fooled by sources telling you about a Korean company Samsung or made up words like Intel or Nvidia.
nVidia hallucinates—TSMC fabricates
Roswell happened in 1947, first microchips in the 60s, makes sense to me!!
The first point-contact transistor was invented in 1947. What a coincidence…
OK what about the factory that makes the machines in the chip factory…
This one is called ASML and I assume they don’t do tours too.
Question: Why can aliens make it but humans can’t?
We don’t have thingwazzas
Racism is a big work in progress in the intergalactic communities.
