Given how fast China can progress when they put their minds to it, this is worrying.

max,

They don’t have the EUV machines needed to make the most modern chips. Only DUV so far.

Huawei recently released a phone with an SoC using that tech. So they have it in some capacity.

AnomalousBit,

Well, when you’ve spent the past 20 years stealing intellectual property and conducting industrial espionage is it really that hard to get to this point?

go_go_gadget,

I’m not sad China is stealing IP from billionaires who are hoarding their wealth. If those billionaires want American citizens to care then share more of the profits.

AnomalousBit,

I love it when the apologists’ friends show up, when you guys can’t argue the high ground any more you just take aim at everyone else

go_go_gadget,

You think coming to the defense of billion dollar corporations is the moral high ground? How much boot are you licking?

AnomalousBit,

You lost the argument, time to redirect redirect redirect!

go_go_gadget,

What argument? I just said I don’t care if China is stealing from these corporations.

betterdeadthanreddit,

Given how fast China can progress when they put their our minds to it, this is worrying.

eskimofry,

Actually they were just exchanging their cheap labour and garbage disposal for the West’s collective greed. So its only fair they return in kind.

The size of a corgi? That’s nearly an 8th of a bald eagle. If it’s really the weight of a baby elephant, then that’s at least 200 pistols. That’s hella dense, but i wish they’d use standard measures. I hate having to translate that into American like this.

Whirling_Cloudburst,

They do that to invite curiosity that facilitates learning. But. I get you.

Anyway what kind of pistols are we talking about here? A Desert Eagle .44 weighs in about 72oz while a baby elephant is about 200-300 lbs (lets settle in at about 250). Therefore, that is 1000 lbs. A thousand pounds is 16000 oz and that makes it about 222 Desert Eagles .44.

dayum the mother must be having the best day of her life - finds long-lost daughter and now she has two children who got married on the same day!

Moof_Kenubi,

Better yet, she only had to pay for one wedding!

jaybone,

Yeah but that was supposed to be their day.

What really matters is how many sideways corgi per elephant yawn it was traveling toward Texas. It doesn’t say.

jmcs, in For context, texas is a state roughly the size of texas

So anywhere between 30 and 60 cubic decimeters and 800kg and who knows what they still consider a baby elephant.

So… Almost between tierce and a rundlet? Or is it just over a quater?

Anything but metric

Phil_in_here,

An asteroid the size of 5000 9mm rounds weighing as much as 4000 kilos of seized cocaine

aksdb,

Finally a measurement I can relate to.

CertifiedBlackGuy,

I can’t. I need it in 7.62 NATO

SlopppyEngineer, (edited )

But metric can still be applied. Hear me out.

So a yard is roughly one meter. It means a kilo-yard is about one kilometer and a centi-yard is one centimeter. How many miles or inches that is, is a conversion problem within the imperial system.

In the same way, a quart is about one liter. Milli-quart is about one milliliters. Easy. How many gills those are is not our problem.

There is no immediate equivalent for weight, although a double-pound would be roughly one kilogram.

YoorWeb,
rockerface,

It’s almost like Imperial system units have all been borrowed from different measurement systems that should have nothing to do with each other. Tho I could get behind 12 inches in a foot, that seems nice to divide
