I’ll assume that Loongson are equally as backdoored, but by Chinese intelligence rather than US intelligence.
RISC-V and OpenPOWER are the last remaining non-user-hostile ISAs. That and possibly old x86.
I don’t think any ISA is backdoored.
The implementations can be. But, of course, you can without any problems make a backdoored CPU with RISC-V ISA. Or with OpenPOWER.
I’d like ppc desktop hardware tbh. With OpenFirmware and all the convenience, but modern.
Thought you guys already got your own chips.
They have both shrimp and pork flavor.
Yup
So don’t use Intel brand shit 🤷
Sounds like sino manipulation of publicly traded companies to me. Very on brand.
How much did Intel spent on share buybacks?
What about R&D
They spent 16 billion dollars in R&D in 2023, which is a bit lower than the 17 billion in 2022, but still way higher than the 13 billion from 2019. In 2023 they distributed as dividends (might be wrong on the calculation here, but I think that this is the right number, 1 billion dollars)
Intel wasted 108b between 2006 and 2020. During this time AMD recovered from near bankruptcy and took the lead.
We are also gonna give intel. Illions for the fab now 🤡
If Intel happens to potentially go under by losing China, the US government coming in would be convenient for both parties.
So Intel’s in a funny position where they can actually pressure China for more economic incentives like subsidies or tax breaks
Lolwut
