Perhaps they could establish a payment network for them or otherwise make them actually useful. File and pay your taxes for you.
Nah dude, difference country.
I'm no lawyer but this sounds suspiciously like an export tax. I think Nvidia now has a solid case that A) it's illegal (only congress can tax stuff, right?) and that B) a ban is unwarranted because of the attempted illegal export tax.
Kinda seems like the grifter just shot himself in the foot again.
It's not the Taiwanese that are crying censorship, it's the Chinese. The KMT are just wannabe CCP members who are just as truthful as the real CCP. Actual Taiwanese people don't want something that China controls.
The only reason th US is where it is right now is because the dollar is still the world currency. It remains so because you need dollars to buy oil.
People who complain about the US dollar and oil are people who've never taken an economics class.
If you're too lazy to learn economics, then do a simple search to find out the world's oil production compared to the number of dollars in the world, and that should give you an idea of how much influence it actually has.
see, here nobody accepts my belief system, they have moded both of my comments as "troll", yet I never troll here, I always say what I mean when it comes to tech, politics and economics. To mode my comments as "troll" means to declare that I do not believe and practice what I say or maybe that I am trying to start some sort of a riot. The former assumes that I am not serious, the latter assumes that everyone reading these comments camnot engage in civilized discourse, it is disgusting really, that people deny others their intentions or agency.
The USPS is also pretty crap about it. They regularly just don't bother to add new addresses to their databases for months or sometimes even years. At work we're having to use an alternate address for a multi story residence with dozens of units because of this. It's really quite irritating. Their address validation system is also shit. They will tell you for example that an address has an invalid secondary (unit number type, e.g. suite/apartment/whatever) but then won't tell you what the correct one is even though they have to know in order to tell you that the one you used is invalid. And this is when you PAY for validation! I don't know how much of this is due to DeJoy but it's shit.
We don't need more military. In fact we need less.
The reason for the existence of the second amendment was to not need a standing militia. We DEFINITELY don't need both things.
Did they actually get it? I only saw it was proposed.
Will farmers actually get it? Farm subsidies are mostly claimed by large corporations.
They are understaffing on purpose not only despite the requirements, but because of their desire to not meet them.
any amount of government, all of it makes me sick to my stomach, that is all I have to say on the topic.
This kind of thing can lead to insolvency crises which can affect you.

China is not stupid enough to tip their hand. They will continue preying on Russia by doing sleazy business with them (like selling them the tires that got their advance stuck in the mud) as long as they can first.
