  • I’m not fully familiar with the overheads associated with all things going on on a chipset, but it’s not unreasonable to think that this workload, plus whatever the chipset has to do (hardware management tasks mostly), as well as the CPU’s other tasks on similar interfaces that might saturate the IO die/controller, would influence this.

    B350 isn’t a very fast chipset to begin with, and I’m willing to bet the CPU in such a motherboard isn’t exactly current-gen either. Are you sure you’re even running at PCIe 3.0 speeds too? There are 2.0 only CPUs available for AM4.









  • The basic premise is that they are itching so bad to be persecuted, but are lower middle class white people. They look at their lives and see that the thing oppressing them the most is the state, but since they’re law-abiding citizens who believe fully that if you act lawfully you can get what you want, there must be a lawful way to get out of state oppression.

    The next step is to construct an arbitrary system of belief that magically explains your view of the world is correct, and Christianity has already done the work of frying their brain into thinking this is reasonable.

    Note that at no point do they even consider that there should be no reason the oppressive state (whether that is true or not is irrelevant) doesn’t simply continue to opress them during their attempt at liberation, because the state oppressing someone is something that happens to people who do unlawful things, and they’re not doing anything unlawful, according to their belief system.



  • The soaking rain thing has happened to me with a not particularly water resistant phone and it was fine. The water ratings are more intended for direct splashes and full immersion.

    My opinion is that this is a comfort we can do without, especially given the ecology and consumer rights implications (not that a phone with a user replaceable battery is necessarily porous to water, plenty of phones meet both criteria)
