    Why did they get a 40% discount? That’s a bit high as service for good customers, isn’t it?

    TSMC’s best decision was to never compete with its suppliers or with its clients. Intel unfortunately competes with both and now it has come to back to bite it.

    Ever since Gelsinger took over the helm at Intel, the firm has focused on reestablishing its manufacturing technology leadership in the global chip manufacturing industry and setting up a contract manufacturing division to compete with TSMC. At the same time, Intel is also working with TSMC to outsource some of its production needs to the Taiwanese firm.

    For fucks sake, he’s just into BDSM apparently. Wants to take it in the A while sucking the D. While of course pissing away billions the rest of the world could use for so many other things. Sigh.

        It is if you get your ass spanked hard while it happens, which fairly accurately describes what’s been happening to Intel in the last year or so lol.

          The spankening is being done by shareholders as well, so it’s a bit crowded.

            The best most effective kind of spanking is a crowded spanking. Really drives the point.

              I would imagine the efficient way, in a scenario where only a single one is being spanked by a crowd of many, would be to tie him to a bdsm chair on wheels or even tracks & have his butt paraded (at some speed) in front of rows (or a giant circle) of people.
