  • False Flag: Social media erupts over Apple's predictive text Palestine blunder

    I'm tired of every slight against Israel, no matter how inadvertent or minor, immediately being seized upon by rage farmers as an example of antisemitism. Clearly the choices should include the Israeli flag, hopefully this gets fixed.

  • TSMC is continuing to complain about 'unacceptable' US chip plant terms

    Geez, what a bunch of whiners. They knew what things looked like going in. Maybe they thought if they stamped their foot and cried enough that the government would fold like the State of Wisconsin did. Dudes, you sighed a contract, hold up your end or pay the penalty. You don’t want to be double taxed? Talk to the government of Taiwan. 

    As far as their bi*ching about how Americans don’t work hard enough. We may not work as hard as you’d like but you see your employees as replaceable, disposable pieces that can be used up and thrown away. In the west we put a higher value on the welfare of our fellow citizens. Once again you knew this going in, so shut up or GTFO. 
    Taiwan is not recognized as a country because of Chinese pressure, the same Chinese pressure that has Taiwan under imminent threat of invasion. But by all means go off on some cultural supremacist rant if you feel the need to share your complete lack of empathy for the people of Taiwan.

  • 'Foundation' cast and crew sent home as production delayed

    Foundation was a fair try, but it needed far better writing to survive — though at least it wasn't Rings of Power level bad writing. Silo hopefully has a much brighter future, that was an excellent and reasonably faithful adaptation.
