    Ever since Gelsinger took over the helm at Intel, the firm has focused on reestablishing its manufacturing technology leadership in the global chip manufacturing industry and setting up a contract manufacturing division to compete with TSMC. At the same time, Intel is also working with TSMC to outsource some of its production needs to the Taiwanese firm.

    For fucks sake, he’s just into BDSM apparently. Wants to take it in the A while sucking the D. While of course pissing away billions the rest of the world could use for so many other things. Sigh.

        It is if you get your ass spanked hard while it happens, which fairly accurately describes what’s been happening to Intel in the last year or so lol.

            The best most effective kind of spanking is a crowded spanking. Really drives the point.

              I would imagine the efficient way, in a scenario where only a single one is being spanked by a crowd of many, would be to tie him to a bdsm chair on wheels or even tracks & have his butt paraded (at some speed) in front of rows (or a giant circle) of people.

                  I just can’t get it patented!
                  (Something about "a train" already being a different sex thing)

                  I’ll make a kickstarter (or similar better provider) about it.

                  It will run on solar energy & get up to 30kmph, so spankers need only to hold out their hands or paddles & the little TrampTram™®© will provide them the spankees butt already presented at desired speed.

                  If I lived in the USA I would market this as a judicial and prison tool as well, public spankings is a tradition we gave up for no good reason at all.
