The Earth Died Screaming
First, producing silicone monocrystals does not equal the ability to produce modern chips. The only somewhat significant semiconductor producer from Russia, Mikron Group, announced in 2020 that they would start using the 65nm process, a process that has been available since 2005.
So the biggest domestic manufacturer is 15-20 years behind the West and mainland Chinese manufacturers have a global market share of 8% compared to Taiwan’s 66% (and American lap dog Korea with 17%).
Sorry to break it to you buddy but its not looking good for the Russians
Ideally: Topple your government and become a based degrowth socialist society that also invest into adaptation
More realistically: Learn, exercise and grow your network of likeminded family and friends so you have a community to fall back on if times get tough.

I agree! We should try to change the narrative towards a more constructive angle, talking about what makes lemmy unique.
This sticker was made shortly after I joined lemmy and wanted to start some kind of guerilla ad campaign where lemmy users could print out stickers and posters and market lemmy in their city or area. But life happened and other things became a little bit more important for the time being so I just decided to release the best sticker design
what about “fed up!”?
we are fed up with popular social media and we also want to “up” the fediverse
EDIT: I actually had a similar idea to OP a few months ago and I already created !fedup@lemmy.ml but I got sidetracked by IRL things. I would be glad to give someone else a mod role if anyone is interested
Disclaimer: I don’t know about the threads @dragonX@lemmy.ml posted about. Maybe they were really against the rules…
And of course it is possible to set up your own category or instance but i think it would maybe be worthwile to have a discussion about these topics, especially if someone makes the effort to do a post explaining their position. We shouldn’t just tell everyone who might have problems with the moderation of a sub to “just set up your own instance”.
Never claimed that the Chinese are that far behind but they just don’t have the same production capabilities as Taiwan or Korea. That might change in a few years tho.
And I guess losing access to modern production facilities in Taiwan ain’t no biggie for the Russians as they plan to produce their own 28nm chips by 2030 (28nm was introduced in 2011 btw) so maybe I’ll game on a Russian CPU by 2055 lol.
