@Allusernamesdur@HaareBlond@Felix_Nuno Bro can you please read my comment or just use google before looking dumb on the internet Chips that are in smartphones and tablets and anything high tech are sub 5 nm in size, which DUV is unable to print ASML is the only one with EUV, thus the only one that can print that small
@Allusernamesdur@HaareBlond@Felix_Nuno No cope at all. You didn't read my tweet at all. As I said, there are other machines but without ASML there is no modern smartphone, no AI, nothing that makes us a modern society. China also doesn't have the most advanced chips and if they do theyare also made with ASML machines
@Allusernamesdur@HaareBlond@Felix_Nuno Yes you can make chips with those other non ASML machines. Do you know what you can use these inferior chips for? Your fridge and microwave and nothing more. Without ASML there is no modern smartphone. You would go 15 to 20 years back in time in technology.
@Allusernamesdur@HaareBlond@Felix_Nuno Wrong, there is no alternative for ASML in the EUV machine sector. These ASML machines arent just better, Nikon and Canon are unable to make machines that can print the highest end of chips
@Leonard1383290@BlackadderMac@vonderleyen No, again, the 2% mark was only put in place in 2014. Untill then there was little reason to spend money on defense anyway. The only reason the US spends so much on military is because they want to force themselves onto everyone to protect their own interests
@Leonard1383290@BlackadderMac@vonderleyen Yes they have, because the US wants to project power all around the world. The US interferes with everything and everyone. They benefitted in the cold war by supporting Europe. I hope Europe wakes up when we have a strong military again and closes all US bases here
@Leonard1383290@BlackadderMac@vonderleyen Brother, the 2% norm was first agreed on in 2006 and introduced in 2014. Before the collapse of the soviet union many nations spent lots on defense. Only between 1990 and a couple of years ago they didnt
@Leonard1383290@BlackadderMac@vonderleyen That is simply not true. 23 out of 32 meet the 2% requirement now. I agree it's still not enough, but the US has always agreed to defend us also because of their own interest. Seeing how America is not and ally any longer, we should support European defense manufacturing
@Leonard1383290@BlackadderMac@vonderleyen Most people can, but we arent car infested and dependant on them like in the us. We luckily have walkable cities, good public transport and just great infrastructure overall
@BlackadderMac@vonderleyen Some older American cars have a cool factor, but modern ones not so much. They dont suit the market here and quality is not good. Much better European alternatives
