Biden's new country-tier-based restrictions on Nvidia chip exports.
Biden's new country-tier-based restrictions on Nvidia chip exports.
Wake up babe, new first/second/third world definitions just dropped.
Ah, the cracker index
What's up with Switzerland and Austria?
Politically unreliable
I'm not sure what tier 2 loses in terms of access.
This obviously continues the Chinese need to "delete America" and capitalize competition to Nvidia, where they are not horribly behind H100 if that is the tier 2 standard. Tier 2 is now automatically motivated to help China to help themselves. Nvidia buying Trump is an easy path to get their oligarchy prioritized over bad arguments against capturing smaller global market that reduces innovation.
Are those chips actually made in US? Or just designed?
I guess the US feels threatened by Greenland's prospering chip industry
Denmark is blue but Greenland isn't. The comedy basically writes itself
Either that map is wrong, or the US doesn't understand how the EU works.
Both them and China try very hard not to.
Fuck Portugal I guess?
Yea what the hell, why us?
How often did you elect a socialist government you sickos?! I am disgusted.
Where do I sign up btw? Just so, you know, I can avoid becoming Portuguese.
Who knows what that's revenge for.
Also Mexico? The Phillipines? Greenland?
Austria too!
I mean, austria has no issues skirting sanctions and the incoming right wing government around the FPÖ and Kickl is very Putin friendly.
I can see why Biden might be careful. But that may change with the new government.
"The worldwide interest in accelerated computing for everyday applications is a tremendous opportunity for
the US to cultivate, promoting the economy and adding US jobsimperialism."Regarding your Peter Griffin meme: Us Swiss and our Austrian neighbors are pretty white on average, but even beyond that, the Czech, the Polish, Estonians, Latvians and Lithuanians are very white on average.
Also Japan, South Korea and Taiwan in the blue tier... Don't know what OP is on about.
Edit: lol didn't realize i was on .ml
The ROK is essentially a US colony, their military is subservient to the US' military "in wartime." Guess what? They have always been in "wartime."
Taiwan is similar, the US maintains a large military presence there and in Japan to try to keep China in check as a geopolitical adversary.
East asian countries after WW2 (minus China) are essentially subsidaries of Western/US imperialism.
Occupied Palestine is tier 2? Doesnt he love their genocide?
Excluding some EU countries is a great move toward accelerating the Union’s fracturing.
I really doubt any sort of US action could lead to the EU fracturing.
If anything, having to deal with the US has brought us closer together. On one side there's Trump making a fool of himself and of the US. On the other side there's Musk, thinking he can take on European unions and actually win, because he thinks he's still in the US, and in the middle there's what i like to call the sheep pen of tech companies. We shear their wool for fines on privacy violations every couple of months to fund our regulatory organs.
I'm not sure I get that part. Movement of goods within the EU is tax free, so why wouldn't another country just import it, and move it to, say, Portugal?
I guess letting a handful of white-collar racist IP lawyers draft your foreign policy isn't such a good idea after all.
Meh. CTU means stuff comes into e.g. Rotterdam and then easily wherever it needs to go from there, and complaining about "evading sanctions" seems to me like an exercise in futility.
Oh, it's the map they always use
Biggest shock on here is Israel isn't blue. I guess this as much of a fuck you for ruining my presidency Biden could muster on his way out.
He's giving them $8bn in arms to kill Palestinians, so I don't think that's the case there. Obama did the same on his way out.
"There is an urgent need for a ceasefire in Gaza and the return of hostages, alongside a surge in humanitarian aid"
They will just steal any tech they want anyway, like the nuke.
The more you buy, the more you save!
Switzerland..?
Geopolitics. Whoever isn't on board with USA (or is suspected not to be) is getting sanctions. Austria and Swiss are neutral (on paper), that's not really going to fly with "you're with us or you're against us" attitude of the US.
The world seriously needs an alternative to US technology.
Also what does Biden have against Iceland and Greenland?
Biden didn't want to provoke the Turks and so Greece is also a tier 2 country
whole east Europe is tier 2. What an influence Turkey has!
The stuff in yellow on EU's Eastern border is the stuff Trump plans to give to Putin.
What about Portugal?
Didn't you know? Portugal is part of Eastern Europe.
Probably a side deal with Morroco or something.
