    South Africa excluded as a former colonial state.

    Im not sure what you’re trying to infer by what you’re saying, like we’re all some backwards ass fuckwits with 0 ability to do anything? Fuck, we used to produce our own RAM at a stage. Nuclear bombs even.

    I live in Russia, I could have written “ex-USSR and African countries” so that you’d not feel offended. Would have the same meaning.

    Point being having actual electronics production and not assembly.

      The irony of somebody from Russia calling anywhere else a shithole is just profound. Don’t you guys have to pour water in your toilets to flush them? The rest of the world has indoor plumbing mate, even Africa.

      Anyway everyone knows that China produces all of the cheap crap anyway, so why wouldn’t you go at them?

        Are you high or something? Why would we?

        The rest of the world has indoor plumbing mate, even Africa.

        I would expect an entire continent to have some variability.

        China produces all of the crap. Without the “cheap” constraint.

        Not in every dimension, but in that of producing computer mice yes it is. Which is all that is relevant to this conversation.

        By the way, I know that sub-Saharan Africa in general is becoming better very fast, and that Sahel has record population growth, and that Africa as a continent has bright future.

        While Russia may hope for that only after a fucking revolution.

        These are just irrelevant.
