A lot of their biggest customers are American companies like Intel, Microchip, and TI. About the only chip companies that don’t buy from ASM are the ones that are prohibited from it (the PRC ones, basically). This means that, despite Intel and TSMC building new fabs in the US, they’re not buying the machines to operate them, or at least fill them.

During the 2008 recession, Intel built new fabs due to an Obama administration tax incentive, but they didn’t put production tools in them for about a decade. They’re going to build just enough and do just enough to get their Biden Bucks and that’s it. Right now, probably a third of the US semiconductor industry workers are getting paid to chill while the bosses figure out what’s happening next.

Hmm, there’s a difference between using a chemical and burning it in an open pit diesel fire without any PPE.

An older coworker of mine died of throat cancer from burn pits in the 80’s. But he was oppressing people in South America and was unrepentant so fuck him.

At least the liberals will protest that war with us, at least until the next DNC stooge gets elected.

New poppers brand dropped.

Folks, we have the best emojis

The half frozen apple jice cartons were the best part of school lunch. Too bad they were like a double shot in volume and they didn’t give us water.
