Or perhaps the E-Core team continues their strides and the design side becomes competitive again. AMD used to be uncompetitive after all; tides can change, and I think people are dooming too much. Intel still has a chance.

Part of Intel’s problem is their ‘P Core’ team absolutely sucked for a decade.

> TSMC has bomb damage and Taiwan is blockaded

For anyone familiar with Chinese culture, history, and mindset, and who views China through that lens rather than a Western one, the probability of this is lower than the probability of Intel’s collapsing entirely in the next two years.

    China is building rather innovative invasion barges.

    Their plan is to invade. Or at least, that's a plan they are spending significant resources on because it's in the top five plans.

No one has doubted Intel's tech...its their manufacturing that is the problem. Anyone can make one successful chip from a wafer...making 80%+ yields is an entirely different problem to crack.
