Man, think about what you write. TSMC is a motherfuckin' business of $14 billion turnover per year. You just do not call them and ask to the operator, "hey, are you still doing those Avalon chips, yeah, those for that Yifu student in his 20s and his friend"?

Come on, how can you even dare to post something like this in a forum without feeling ridiculous?

Wake up, man: TSMC has more than 30,000 employees. Your "friend" is full of shit, and your crazy/dumb/whatever for even listening at her without laughing out loud.

1) This was all settled on the last page. You missed the bus bro.

2) As I mentioned before, I was told what I was told a week ago and I didn't bring it up. The only reason I brought it up now was because of some potentially troubling news in the OP. (I missed the post where Yifu said that he was woken up in the middle of the night and came to post)

3) This person represents a network of people in China that have previously been extremely good at sourcing anything we've possibly needed. In the case of the Avalons this is the first time they've ever been unable to find something for me. This isn't the case of someone who says he has an uncle that works at Nintendo.

But all of this is a moot point because it was settled on the last page.

Man. It's so f**king obvious that nobody can "source" Avalon chips from TSMC that is ridiculous you even asked. Do you have a clue of how a company like TSMC works? They are producing chips for EVERYBODY, including Apple or Nvidia, their security standards are top-notch and applied to every customer by default. Probably they don't even know who "Avalon" is, very likely every customer is just a number for 99.9% of the employees, and there's no friggin' way you contact TSMC and somebody is able to tell you that they are not manufacturing for this or the other customer.

Sorry, I didn't read the other page, I was (and I am) too amazed that you dared to ask such a thing to your "contact", and even more amazed by the fact that you had the guts to post such a ridiculous nonsense in a public forum.

And BTW, you have the proof now that "this person" is at the "an uncle that works at Nintendo" level, because he laughed out loud at your face telling you that somebody told her that TSMC is not producing those chips anymore. Only two options here bro, either she is a clown, or she is clueless, otherwise you just do not say such thing because you would feel ashamed.

AND BTW: next time ask her to "source" you the prototypes for the next iPhone from Foxconn, and when she replies that "somebody told me Foxconn is not manufacturing Apple devices anymore" you tell us, ok?

LOL
