In just the last few days, the White House confirmed that two U.S. chipmakers, Nvidia
and Advanced Micro Devices
, would be allowed to sell advanced chips to China in exchange for the U.S. government receiving a 15% cut of their revenues in the Asian country.
Apple

(1,731 posts)And for all those businesses getting in line with cash in hand and painted, pooched lips for his ass, You all need to understand that there are a lot of people who are dumping you now and/or will be dumping you first chance they get once this nightmare is over. You can all go under as far as I'm concerned. I will never buy another fucking thing that has your fingerprints on it.
Sorry for the rant. I am just so disgusted by all these companies, giants of industry, and above all the media so willing to prostrate themselves.
