Whatever that gets a RISC-V open source chip made i am supporting don't care if its china or russia lets just hope this makes the giants follow along .

China, Russia, and open source? Hahaha

Execs from Huawei and Tencent are on the board of directors for the Linux Foundation.

That should set your alarm bells ringing.

I don’t know if it should. Linux is obviously important to the Chinese. The foundation also has employees from Intel, VMWare, Meta, Qualcomm, Microsoft, and all the Japanese electronics manufacturers on the board. If we are so afraid of China maybe we should pull all of our manufacturing back.

Isn't that what we were trying to do? A slow pullback of manufacturing from Xiland in phases.

Obviously there isn't a consensus. 187 House Republicans and 33 Senate Republicans voted against the CHIPS Act for example.

Yeah i also thought about it but decided to be optimistic for a sec . Atleast i hope they indirectly press others to do so.
