    I am having some troubless finding any other reason but greed and safe bett, from apple side to even think about intel, i mean intel is the company crapple just kiked out in the hope to save make more money on production, thus making more.

      Architect, 07 Dec 2025Hahaha 😂 Old love doesn't rust right 😊Let me put it this way: there is no love in this business, just a cutthroat mentality. So if there is any "love" in wpple, is because of intel patents. Yeah, crazy right?

                "Basically, Apple wants to not depend entirely on TSMC for chip fabrication, and Intel is the way to do that."

                ~well yes and no but mostly NOT really. . . big tech corporate remains as big tech corporate. A profit 1st anything lives and dies by their strict margins' rule. The only exception here is; this is just a temporary political posturing that Apple can't really evade for the time being until the regime change. Plus point well being Apple, they can afford to do this and plan to switch back whenever down the road.

                To seriously stay committed to Intel long term would be not only contingent to how good are Intel's current + future node processes is going to be but also how they're gonna really turn to be a far better ROI compared to TSMC.

                Right now yeah it's just more of a play it safe move for Apple.

                  LOL Apple would do better making own chips from scratch than rely on any other company.
                  They would do better to make whole phone from scratch will all any and every screw inside under apple branding and making.

They both are deep in it. Also, side note, Apple seems to have a headstart when it comes to devices with newer thunderbolt versions. Maybe it's 'cause of Apple's vertical integration thing that they're able to do it first while Intel takes more time 'cause their reach is wide and spread thin.

                      Anonymous, 07 Dec 2025What difference does it make?Normalizes it. And AI generated stuff isn't real. And it also uses up a ton of energy.

                      This just contributes to AI and we should be doing the opposite.
