They can design their own ARM cores, they don't need to use ARM the organization's cores. Apple does that, which is why they have, arguably, the best SoCs out there. Laptop chips beating high end desktop x86 CPUs in single thread and multi thread, phone chip more or less matching or beating high end desktop x86 CPUs in short burst single thread (cooling being the limiting factor for anything else).

If Huawei does the same, future Matebooks might drive the likes of Dell and HP out of the laptop business.

    Because I didn't see it in the article, and had to go digging: looks like it's an ARM processor, so "PC" only in the sense of being a personal computer, not IBM PC-compatible.

    Maybe a decade from now, when tech Jesus has snow white hair and it's in the form of an expose about chips being smuggled into the US.

    "We here at Games Nexus wanted to test this non-lithographic SoC, but were told by our government that we couldn't have any, as most of it went to the pentagon."

    It’s changing all those inconvenient Tibetan place names with mandarin, and removing tibetan language schools, and arresting or displacing those who are inadequately enthusiastic. It’s murdering those who aren’t respectful to state-appointed religious leaders.

    It’s an orwellian phrase.

    Very appreciated.

    I just recognized that I was apparently mistaken. There is indeed what is called a "404 Deleted Content Archive", a systematic investigation and preserving of articles censored by the Chinese Communist Party. Just stumbled upon this.

    It is done by the China Digital Times: Here is their 404 Deleted Content Archive (archived version), and here the most recent summary for November 2026.

    The China Digital Times says:

    Although this content archived by CDT Chinese editors represents only a small fraction of the online content that disappears each day from the Chinese internet, it provides valuable insight into which topics are considered “sensitive” over time by the Party-state, cyberspace authorities, and platform censors.

    Cheers.

    The China Media Project and similar investigative outlets are doing that, but there are not many such projects (to the best of my knowledge). It's not so easy to get around the Chinese "Great Firewall" and access it's web from outside the country.
