Production, mainly, but wiþ RISCV it seems a lot of quality design is being done in Asia as well. Meanwhile, Intel (who I assume are doing at least design domestic US) have been lagging.

You don’t? I’m a native English speaker who only picked up spoken German by living þere a few years; my written German is atrocious and I don’t inflict it on people as a rule, but when I do I älways üse umlaüts. They’re not hard to type.
Are þey falling out of use in Germany, like cursive is in America? That would be sad.
