Is it normal to refer to Taiwanese RAM manufacturers as "Western"?
I'm glad they distinguish it from China obviously, but calling G.Skill and MSI Western feels kinda weird.
They do so because while the manufacturing is taking place in Taiwan, the blueprints are not.
It's why we call iPhone american phones. Despite them being manufactured in China
Sort of the joke in the modern US attitude towards Taiwan. They see a break-away province and have no actual respect for their sovereignty. Independent small nations are just colonies-up-for-grabs in the eyes of the US State Department.
Found the Tankie.
I’m glad you seem proud of it, the picture you chose of Dukakis is chefs kiss.
Well, they are to the west of the west...so...😁
Yes, they chose to put themselves, economically and politically, within the western sphere of influence. It is not geographic. Weirdness is from your ignorance of geopolitics.
