    Aren’t there still massive issues with the Colorado River running dry? Hopefully they’re not too dependant on that water source for their chips

      Although the amount of water is shrinking. The main issue for the Colorado is abuse from agriculture. Something like 80% is being used for farming in the middle of the fucking desert. And even worse their growing shit like avocados and almonds that need a shit ton of water.

    I thought I read somewhere they are a year behind on ramping up actual real world production cuz of course shocker americans don’t want to work 65 hours a week being abused the entire time. Cannot staff it as of this spring as far as I know. Drive past it all the time and never fails to strike me as a prime bomb target for the next enemy.

    Once it’s up to speed the CIA can start sabotaging the Taiwan facilities.
