Homeless Friend posted:I can never tell what the actual water usage of these fabs are because dumbo journos use the term "use". A lot of water is 'used' per chip but its largely recycled because the water has to be ultrapure anyway. So like a large amount must be trapped in the refining loop onsite. Process / cooling water can be (and is) highly recycled. But the majority (like >70%) of water use in a fab is ultrapure water for rinsing etc. UPW production is not a closed loop. UPW waste streams can be recycled for cooling or other things, but since those systems don't require nearly as much volume as UPW (and since those are already easily recycled), this doesn't help much. There have been increasing efforts to re-use UPW effluent as the input to UPW production, but this is only done to a limited extent. A lot of UPW effluent just gets discharged to the municipal sewer. In many ways, the UPW waste that is flushed is cleaner than what is provided in the first place, but that does not necessarily mean it is just as suitable (or more suitable) as an input stream for UPW production, since each process step introduces contaminants that are not present in the municipal supply, sometimes at high concentrations. At the end of the day it just boils down to money. If the water utility forced fabs to be more efficient with UPW, either by charging them more or restricting their allotment, they could absolutely be much more efficient not only with UPW recycling, but UPW use. Reprocessing of UPW effluent is becoming more common but there is still a lot of waste. The TSMC Arizona fab is "supposed" to achieve a 90% water recycling rate but I have no idea how many asterixis accompany that number or even if the loving thing will ever be built lol.

Not buying fast food is technically a boycott and is therefore antisemitic. Buy 2 Mcchickens for 20 dollars on the app or else.

I'm trying very hard to understand this wikipedia entry without getting a nosebleed. Can someone explain the various stages of American capitalism detailed herein and what they mean? I was trying to understand why every florist where my parents live, except for the most boutique and upscale ones, which I know are brick and mortar, offers the same flowers for Mothers' Day, and now I'm at a total loss.  Where the gently caress do flowers come from? posted:
How the gently caress did a florist become a telecommunications company, become a hedge fund (?)?  My best guess: Floral Wire Service and Retailer (Early 20th Century): Emergence of national markets facilitated by technological advances like the telegraph, which FTD used to establish a network of florists to deliver flowers across distances promptly. This era saw the growth of service-oriented businesses alongside industrial enterprises. Retailers' Cooperative (Founded 1910, Demutualized 1994): As a cooperative, FTD was owned and run by its members (florists) for mutual benefit, typical of early 20th-century cooperative movements seeking to protect small businesses and local industries from monopolies and larger competitors. Demutualization and Acquisition by a Private Hedge Fund (1994): Reflects the deregulation trends of the late 20th century, emphasizing privatization and the shift towards maximizing shareholder value. The transition from a cooperative to a private, for-profit entity underlines the financialization of the economy. International Expansion and Use of a Global Telecommunications Network (Mid-20th Century Onwards): Expansion beyond national borders, leveraging global telecommunications infrastructure to facilitate international business transactions. Initial Public Offering and Listing on NASDAQ/NYSE (2000s): Emphasizes the role of large corporate entities in shaping economic landscapes, utilizing stock markets for capital and public investments. This stage aligns with the growing influence of corporate governance and finance in the global economy. Merger and Acquisition by United Online (2008), Spin-off and Later Transactions: Characterized by the consolidation of businesses to form larger conglomerates, often driven by the search for synergies, cost reductions, and expanded market dominance. Complex financial strategies and restructuring efforts to boost profitability and shareholder returns. Bankruptcy and Restructuring (2019), Acquisition by Nexus Capital: Reflects the volatility of neoliberal market practices, where companies may undergo rapid expansion but also face significant challenges that lead to restructuring and bankruptcy. The involvement of private equity firms and hedge funds in restructuring reflects continued emphasis on asset optimization and financial engineering.

https://dallasexpress.com/business-markets/buy-now-pay-later-phantom-debt-mounting-wall-street-warns/ ‘Buy Now, Pay Later’ Phantom Debt Mounting, Wall Street Warns New purchasing options available to consumers are leading to short-term debt accumulation that Wall Street is struggling to track. Retailers are increasingly offering “buy now, pay later” (BNPL) options. This short-term financing solution allows consumers to make a purchase immediately and pay for it in installments over time. While the programs can vary, they are typically short-term in nature, with fixed payments and no interest. Commonly, the payment plan is divided over four periods, hence the nickname for the product: “pay in four.” The first payment is often due right away, with the three subsequent payments due every other week. The actual magnitude of the short-term financing program is unclear but is likely substantial, according to one expert. Tim Quinlan, a senior economist at Wells Fargo & Co., said the program is driving a growing “phantom debt” in the U.S. economy. This is largely because the major players in the space, Affirm Holdings Inc., Klarna Bank AB, and Block Inc.’s Afterpay, are not required to report BNPL loans to credit agencies. Even without official figures, surveys of consumer usage point to a rising and largely untracked bucket of U.S. personal debt. Last year, The Dallas Express reported that one in five Americans planned to use a BNPL payment plan to make purchases over the holiday season, according to a report by Adobe Analytics. In another survey, Bankrate found that 8% of respondents intended to use BNPL to finance holiday travel. While the loans do not charge interest, consumers are still at risk of being hit with late fees for missed payments. Adobe Analytics estimates that in the first quarter of 2024, $19.2 billion was spent using BNPL, representing a more than 12% rise from the same quarter the previous year. One estimate predicts that the opaque “buy now, pay later” market will reach nearly $700 billion globally by 2028. This could spell trouble, as a recent Harris Poll survey conducted for Bloomberg News found more than four out of 10 respondents who owe money to BNPL services were past due on payments. The survey, conducted in April, found that dividing payments encourages consumers to overspend, with over half saying BNPL enabled them to buy more than they could afford. For nearly a quarter of respondents, BNPL spending was deemed “out of control.” Simon Khalaf, Chief Executive Officer of Marqeta Inc., a firm focused on assisting payment processing for BNPL providers, says the hidden debt may be so large that it could have broader economic implications. “They’ve reached a certain scale that they could impact economists’ assumptions about their economic outlooks,” said Khalaf, per Bloomberg. The major players in BNPL blame credit agencies for the lack of transparency, saying they cannot handle their information. They also claim disclosure could harm customer credit scores. For their part, the big three credit bureaus say they are prepared to manage the financing details, and VantageScore Solutions and Fair Isaac Corp. (FICO) similarly say they are prepared to assess how BNPL products affect their credit scores.
