Hope the gamers don’t like cheap graphics cards
Finally, tariffs on China.
…Wait wrong China!
Bruh
?????
Finally glad the Switch 2’s SoC is an older Samsung design instead of TSMC’s best.
I was going to post a cute arisu meme and joke about it but like… this is so stupid on so many levels.
Why would anyone trust America again? We work with Taiwan to protect them, then we bitchslap them with 100% tariffs on their most important industry?
Why would you ever make an agreement with the United States if you know in 4 years it could be totally destroyed? This happened with the TPP in his first term too. I hate this guy so much.

I doubt this occurs after Trump just made friends with all the tech world who need their H100s right now. I could see it being targeted against graphics cards in the hope of building up more American industry though.
Seems like it risks Taiwan trying to find another way of selling those chips, i.e giving them to china.
Yeah, that’s not surprising.
He saw a chance to alienate one of our allies and suck up to an authoritarian. Expecting anything else would be like leaving Garfield alone with lasagna. Some things are fat, orange, and predicable.
With friends like Trump, who needs enemies?
Speedrunning the end of US hegemony’s
You get a tariff! And you get a tariff! And YOU get a tariff!
EVERYBODY GETS A TARIFF!
At this point I’m wondering if Trump is trying to get 25th Amendmented so he can fuck off and play golf while Vance does all the implementing Project 2025 stuff.
damn I might have to keep my 3080 for like 4 more years lmao
America about to feel the pain of EU GPU pricing.
