I believe also that the 9000x3D series (from my memory of rumours) also has the 3D cache on both CCXs, meaning no latency with cross-CCX communication.
I think that has the possibility to make it worse honestly. It’s not like the contents of the cache is duplicated. Instead it’s split across a ccx boundary and if the data is in the wrong cache you’ll be hit. Now clever thread management can help avoid this but so far the 9xxx series has shown terrible thread affinity choices with many existing games and apps. I’ll wait and see how the 3D cache helps here.
Long term as games start using AVX512 I expect the 9000 series will be seen as a big step up against previous generations. One of those "fine wine" things.
"The practice allows law enforcement to confiscate property from people suspected of criminal activity, even if they haven’t been charged with an offense."
Suspected of criminal activity due to "money existing".
It should be a very simple procedure.
I have no issue with the seizure itself. What should come next is the police ask the person or business to explain it. They show an invoice / receipt, and the money is logged and returned promptly.
from wiki -> Victims often have "long legal struggles to get their money back".[35] One estimate was that only one percent of federally taken property is ever returned to their former owners.[43]

If you're paying someone to be on-call, this is not an issue.
Kind of a big thing most people don't understand about the various forms of "Business Insurance." For the most part, businesses have whatever insurance whatever they are doing requires them to have. Those requirements are set by laws/regulations applied to those entities and the various entities they want to do business with.
At every small shop I've worked when the topic of Business Insurance came up with one of the owners, the response was extremely negative -- basically summarized as "it's the most you will ever pay for something you won't ever be able to use".
Yep, it’s pretty much a toll on doing business with entities. I’ve no doubt the intention is so your customer can sue you without you winding up, whether it actually works… no idea.
It's possible that some chains could have credentials or other sensitive information in ticket chains.
