    And then some say "Oh you see. The market came up with a solution. And so fast! We didn't need to do anything!" Ignoring the fact that we in Europe, China and so on did actively supported that development and that's why we got there.

    Whatever in the US or not regulations and tax advantages and support / unfair market was a thing.

    Battlefield 1 is fine using ~10 threads here:

    Lots of games would run like complete garbage if you forced them to run on one core without hyper-threading.

    Gaming performance has and still is a single core endeavor

    lol, absolutely not.

    By now you can expect the games to take advantage being able to run four rather than two threads at-least.

    Sure one of those may be the one with the highest load and hence performance be limited by how fast that thread can be executed but that DEFINITELY NOT mean that games only use one core/threads. There's definitely advantages of having more and being able to just run one thread at the time would completely destroy game performance in lots of games well beyond what having a say 30% lower IPC quad-core processor would do.

    The "old" Pentium Gs (dual-core with no hyper-threading) could result in games more or less locking up relative on an i3 (dual-core with hyper-threading), but sure, processors like the FX-6300 wasn't without trouble either.

    Anyway a 5 GHz "Pentium 4" wouldn't be a stellar performer today.

    At least the companies competing on the global market/outside of the welfare in the EU have to compete under capitalism and here in Scandinavia the culture has been that what defines you and are the first question a native stranger ask you when getting to know you is what you work with/do, everyone is supposed to work, the politians want to force everyone to work and if you were out of job / not working you'd be seen as a loser and social outcast. That may have changed with massive immigration and long-term/life-long unemployment and the anti-racist idea that it wouldn't be OK to complain on the immigrants living that life. What culture are they and possibly there children in regarding necessity of work?
