i see a lot of news about australian politics, news of seattle, darmstadt, brazil, … all places where i don’t live, where the posts aren’t relevant to me. it would be cool to be able to tag posts/communities with a geographical location so i can easily filter which posts are / aren’t probably relevant to me. in one setting in my profile, instead of having to block each community individually (there’s hundreds of them at this point)

5 monthsnah it’s not that simple. it’s mostly about cost. chip manufacturing is hella expensive and developing new chip manufacturing techniques is even more expensive. it’s cheaper to do it all in one place in taiwan instead of every country opening its own chip manufacturers. it’s only now due to security considerations that this is changing, but it takes 10 years to build a chip manufacturing site somewhere.
hah, calling silicon-based computing “soon to be obsolete” is surely something ;-)
it’s like calling solar energy a “soon to be obsolete” technology because surely we’ll invent fusion power / small modular reactors in a few years. how many SMRs have been deployed so far?
where can i buy these optical computers today?
