So if the west relies less on Taiwan for chips, does that make it easier or harder for China to take over?

"Do you neeeeeed techno-logy? I just need porn on my phone."

He's saying a 2nm chip doesn't actually measure as 2nm

“Hmmmm I can try, with a little help from IBM”

Are you saying they can produce 2 NM Chips but that doesn’t mean those chips are great ?

Thanks for this. I was really wondering how they managed to get past the quantum tunneling problem.

(friendly reminder that 2nm is a marketing name and has nothing to do with actual values compared to back when it used to, it's now just a name for a fabrication process)

"I get by with a little help from ibm"

“Before the end of this decade”. We will wait and see, but sounds exciting. Of course, not having to rely solely on Taiwan for chips is also a plus

Congrats! You walked grandpa with chest pain/sob and threw him into cardiac arrest. Good choice though, 11/10 mental math

With Japanese precision? Neat.

reducing taiwan reliance? neat

You're making claims which, whether intentional or not, serve to discount the usefulness of this technology. First of all, your claim is a stretch for a number of reasons, people don't always take the same route, people aren't always going to the same places, there are countless scenarios which would make it incredibly hard to find someone who'd had an accident even if you're incredibly familiar with their daily routines. It sounds like you're discounting the tech because you were responding to points about what makes the tech valuable. Saying "but you could probably just guess where they are" is a pretty pointless response. Sure, you could, or you could know exactly where they are and where to send help which is much better than going off a hunch which has a too high chance of being wrong when we're talking about an emergency scenario. If your entire point is that, it's sometimes possible to guess where people are, I guess.... great? It's also possible to guess and be wrong while they lie bleeding 2 miles in the other direction.

Why do you claim I'm denying the benefits of it? I'm not.

> Why are you so bent on denying the benefits of this feature.

I feel like thats a lot of extrapolation from my one comment lmao. I'm not bent on anything.

I simply saying that in the present, without the above tech, you could make a good guess as to where it happened. As you said just now it's great that he was able to tell exactly where it was with 100% certainty, i'm not denying that in the slightest.

But without it, you could probably still take a guess and still be at least probably 80% accurate. I'm no trying to claim that it's better in the slightest, just that if you knew a crash happened after the audio cut out you could probably find them pretty fast even without it.

I don't disagree, but not everyone uses that feature for a variety of reasons. My mom thinks constant location sharing is creepy but has me and my step dad in her phone as ICE contacts. She was in an accident earlier this year and I would have been grateful if she'd had this. I encouraged her and my step dad to do full time location sharing after that so we would know where she was if something happened again and she didn't want to. She'd do this though and I would rest easier if she had it.

This is an absurd take, people often deviate from normal routines for a variety of reasons. My mother was in an accident earlier this year where this would have been incredibly beneficial. Why are you so bent on denying the benefits of this feature. What's your goal here?

Not everyone uses, or wants to use, find my iphone. For people who think it's abnormal to constantly track their family members but who also may want to alert them if there is an emergency this is a great option. I don't understand the desire to drag this technology, it's almost indisputably a good feature.

You CAN be distracted, but that doesn’t MAKE you distracted. With your logic, the same would apply to talking to people who are in the car with you. Do you sit in compete silence every time you drive?

The greatest trick the devil ever played was making you believe you need an iPhone

Yes and they downvote you if you disagree or say anything bad about apple

You can have your hands free and still be distracted. You’re using your brain power to operate a vehicle while watching the road while talking to someone. You’re basically doing mental juggling.

So everything on Reddit is fake, including you. Stop pretending you exist!

Do Apple fans just upvote this nonsense? I don't get it.
