Nächste Runde im Wettkampf um #Halbleiterproduktion und -lieferketten. China führt Ausfuhrkontrollen für #gallium und #germanium ein.

Exporteure müssen wohl ab dem 1. August eine Lizenz für die Ausfuhr haben und können diese ab dem 1. August beantragen. 🤷‍♂️ Die Bearbeitung eines Antrags kann bis zu 45 Tage dauern.

Gonna have to fund #ElonMusk's asteroid lassoing operation if you expect to have computers and our overlords keep pissing off #China. But our overlords are done with the #informationage experiment in narrative-setting and #indoctrination. Next up... You will own nothing, eat juiced bugs, and be happy... or else. #Germanium #Gallium #GreatReset

The US-China chip war is still escalating | MIT Technology Review

>Last week, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce announced a new export license system for #gallium and #germanium, two elements that are used to make computer chips, fiber optics, solar cells, and other tech devices.

"#Brussels appears to have been caught off-guard by #Beijing's imposition of controls on the supply of #germanium and #gallium — rare elements used in #ComputerChips and #FiberOptics. The Chinese move, a swift response to Dutch curbs on the export of advanced chip equipment, comes as European Commission President #UrsulaVonDerLeyen pushes a new economic security strategy" #ASML #ChipWars #US #Netherlands

Laut EU-Schätzung beherrscht die Volksrepublik den Weltmarkt bei #Gallium mit 94 Prozent und bei #Germanium mit 83 Prozent Marktanteil. Für Gallium und Germanium gelten ab 1. August neue Exportbestimmungen. "Um die nationale Sicherheit und Interessen zu schützen"

美國宣佈財長耶倫 #Yellen 出訪北京，半日後中國宣佈限制兩種半導體業及多項電子產品的重要原料鎵 #Gallium 和鍺 #Germanium 的出口，似是向耶倫施下馬威。

oh good it’s everyone’s favourite hate machine, the damaged 1N34.

_fuck_ germanium

i ask in all seriousness: has anyone ever made or seen a zero-insertion-force holder/adapter for germanium diodes?

(i’m gonna try a silicon replacement but i’ve had to order it)
