I mean, everyone has been crying and whinging for years, decades even, that the USA needs to ramp up semiconductor fabrication in case shit goes south in Taiwan. We are finally getting some domestic production power and we're getting outraged by the traffic delays? America will sink itself because of our people's own addiction to comfort and complaining about any slight to that comfort.

Yep, the fab plant is a little east of Columbus (just south of where I live actually). This is one of like 2 dozen "super loads" that has to make its way from the Ohio River up to the plant. I swear there is a website somewhere that keeps track of when the are coming, the routes they take, and the closures involved but my Google-fu is failing me now.

Slightly less good for the people of Taiwan.

Thanks, Biden

The bigger news here is something from his administration is coming to fruition that creates American jobs and reduces foreign dependency on a major commodity for both civilian and military applications.

About 4,000 washing machines.

Well a football field is 57,600 sq ft, and a cubic foot of dirt weighs between 110-140 lbs depending on composition. That means that an average football field at a depth of one foot weighs around 6,912,000 lbs.

This thing weighs 916,000 lbs. So it is 0.1325231481 football fields.

Why didn't the transformers just drive themselves? Or better yet turn into airplanes?

Or, historically, when you’re building a new factory, the first thing you do is build a rail connection right next to it

Yes, but that is long past an actuall transistor size and just a marketing term.

It was a 280 foot trailer but due to Moore's law, it has undergone multiple shrink cycles while still maintaining 280 feet worth of storage inside.
