In 2009 amd, facing insolvency, sold its entire mobile graphics department to qualcomm for a measly 65million that technology went on to become snapdragon. It’s one of the only things that kept amd going at the time, but qualcomm got insanely rich off it.
It’s rather poetic to now see intel face a similar decision. According to the article intel is also planning to spin it’s chip manufacturing out to its own company which is also what amd did with global founderies around the same time as selling to qualcomm.

Wait how does this work this post got posted on both mastodon and lemmy from a lemmy account tf I thought this was only possible the other way around
Those dot character on your keyboard. Yep, those are the ones.
What do you mean? Mastadon users can follow lemmy communities to see posts
Edit: to clarify, Lemmy is not set up to make or view microblog style posts. Therefore we don’t see into that side of the fediverse from Lemmy. However, my understanding is that Mastadon users can follow communities on Lemmy as if they’re a microblog account, with all posts and comments from that community coming in as one steam in chronological order. So compatibility isn’t great over there either. They can also make posts in Lemmy communities by tagging it in their post. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong.
