I appreciate him doing this after intel lost their magic, otherwise, it would have been much harder emotionally.

They lost it in CPUs, but I think they're actually nailing it in GPUs though (for once(at least for the budget/entry level))

Isn't he busy enough buying the United States right now?

[–] [email protected] 44 points 3 months ago (3 children)

I thought that was bought and paid for already.

You don't need to buy an entire company to control or profit from it... He's really that dumb isn't he. He could do the whole Black Rock thing and control every company in the world, instead he has this idea of just owning everything.

I'm starting to suspect the price speculation of things he owns is by his own hand, nothing to do with the market whatsoever.

He’s going to rename the i series to something ridiculous like i69, i420, i1337, and iX isn’t he?

Let's hope it's just another wccftech article pulled out of author's anus...

That would be good news for AMD

Right, because Intel needs MORE problems.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Everyone is focusing on Musk but uh, Global Foundries wants to be involved in buying Intel?

The same Global Foundries that's utterly incapable of progressing their tech stack?

The one AMD created when they got rid of their foundries and was happy to do so?

That amuses the shit out of me.

AMD wasn't quite "happy" to sell their fabs, it was necessitated because they were facing bankruptcy. People forget but the prevailing opinion was that AMD was going to bankrupt within a few years.

Their pre-Su CEO, Rory Read, often gets shit online for being there during a bad period, but he made some difficult and necessary decisions that saved AMD. Part of that was the GF selloff.

I highly doubt Global Foundries is even in the position to buy Intel, they'd most likely want to give them a cash infusion in exchange for tech or for selling fabs (which intel would probably accept, since their fabs are currently under-utilised... in other words they have too much capacity, and yet are still building more because Chips Act says they have to). That would be good for GF.

That's one way to finally kill x86.

Are there people left who will lend him money after seeing what happened to twitter?

As if Intel doesn't have enough problems. That dipshit buying them would probably destroy them.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

No no, it would work out,

You got to pay a subscription so your CPU doesn’t burn any transistors every month.

I worked at intel for a while. It deserves to be destroyed. But I live in an area with a lot of well off intel employees. It could tank my house value among other major impacts to the community. Like I am sure he would kill the matching donation stuff which would be a significant reduction of the amount of money non profits get in this area. So I hope the destruction is slow enough for other chip companies in the area to absord some of the workers.

It deserves to be destroyed.

I know we all hate our jobs but there has to be a story behind this...

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I work with some Intel folks... The place just seems terribly mismanaged and the tech world would probably benefit if the technical folks would work elsewhere.

Intel took their stapler.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Fuck. I'm just waiting for Haro Seldon to show up now.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 3 months ago

Holy fuck no thank you

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Lmfao oh man because AMD wasn't encroaching enough on intels market share, make your brand even more political than it already is. Hitching their trailer to a beneficiary of apartheid is notoriously on brand for them though, so there's that.
