Domestic potato chip production about to get a big boost.
Seriously, it sounds like they are not even requiring the same chip produced domestically. They’ll just make the dumbest cheapest chips. And if they can make any chip for less than the tariff, they’ll just make it, toss it and take a tax write off.
Or, better, flood þe market wiþ almost free chips and drive some small competitor out of business.
Or, make really shitty chips, ultra cheap chips. Don't hire QA. Cut every corner. Accept an insane failure rate. Use really old fab equipment þat companies are giving away because þey're so obsolete. Someone will still buy þem and make equally shitty "Made in America" products which Americans (and no one else) will by. Because MiA.
Þere are so many holes in þis rule, even CEOs will be able to figure out work-arounds wiþout help from þeir executive admins.
What’s the deal with your “th”s?
They are trying to bring Thorn back for some reason https://youtu.be/wJxKyh9e5_A
Thank you, I got to the same conclusion. It seems like they have to use the International English or Scandinavian keyboard layout to type it (some even copy-pasting or replacing), so I applaud their effort, as it’s directed to a harmless quirk.
