You have to count in the costs you as a customer don't see that are applied to the shops where they have to pay to get the money deposited to the bank counted and to get a bunch of small change coins from the bank.
Add to it the risk that the people handling the money transfers run the risk of robbery, equipment to safely handle the cash and the time used to take care of counting and packing the cash. It all adds up and the card transaction fee is then not as bad as it looks in theory.
Spreading the threads on multiple cores or multiple threads within the same core is dependent on the application which one that will yield best result. So I don't think that the OS could even make a good decision there.
For tourists it means that if they bring their cards then they don't even have to go through the hassle of money exchange, just pay with the card and let the bank and exchange rate take care of it.
But paying in local currency is recommended since you'd usually get a bad exchange rate if you are offered to pay in your own currency.
In Sweden it's hard to find shops that don't take cards or other means of electronic payments like Swish. And a growing number of shops are cashless, often restaurants.
Even taxis, parkings, road tolls and similar services normally takes electronic payments.
It can go months between each time I use cash these days.
But is the site isolation complete so that all cached info is now tied to the site you browse and third party cookies and cached data as well is living in total separation?
You'd be surprised when you discover the amount of access to various places janitors and coffee machine maintenance personnel has. They may be escorted around, but they will see a lot too.
If you have some serious secrets then the workers have to mop the floors themselves.

It would have if you had purchased a first class ticket to some obscure location known for drug trade cash.
That has already been tried and it failed.
Around here you can't even use cash when there's a power outage since it will not be possible to get the price of the products anymore.

So from this discussion it's interesting that hyperthreading has been stuck on 2 threads per core for so long. Why not 16 today?
And what would be more power efficient - more hyperthreading or more cores?
More threads on a core also burns more cache. And if both threads need to access ram then you get even more delay.
Personally I see the hyperthreading as a poor mans multicore solution.
Your mileage may vary.
What if the streaming is an intrisic part of the game?
Ok. I don't know if there are such games, but in the world of VR it wouldn't surprise me.
The skills needed may also vary depending on where in the world you are.
Either that or a tighter control of CAs where you need to pay a considerable sum each year for a certificate for your site.
There's a point in leaving PHP behind since it's a mess. So is JSP, primarily because it's a mix of three languages/paradigms:
This combo overall generates a headache of mixed code that is hard to debug and is prone to bugs.
It's not easy to build an UI that is stable, secure and useful with any of these combos.

The only reason why the authorities haven't put a demand on traceability on blockchains is because they don't understand them.

Then don't count empty flights as valid flights. That would put an end to that habit.
I agree, that's one reason why I ditched HTC in favor of a CAT S60.
Today I'm usually less worried about performance and more about feedback, privacy, security and stability of the browser.
What I really miss in the Microsoft browsers is the feedback about what the heck it's waiting for - or if it's still waiting for a server response.
X11 with fvwm as window manager and I'm good.
Vim is the editor for all hardcore editor fans.

If you want the info to look like it's a wild goose chase - leak it to 'news of the world'.

Welcome to visit Sweden - where 3-phase in the homes is standard and single phase is rare and usually found in studio apartments.
