My i5-4690 and i7-4770 machines remain competitive to this day, even with spectre patches in place. I saw no reason to 'upgrade' to 6/7/8th gen CPUs.
I'm looking for a new desktop now, but for the costs involved I might just end up parting together a HP Z6 G4 with server surplus cpu/ram. The costs of going to 11th+ desktop Intel don't seem worth it.
I'm going to look at the more recent AMD offerings, but I'm not sure they'll compete with surplus server kit.

Maybe Centaur + Top-half-fish mermaid?

No, the Belgian man was not German.
I used to think so too, but I've got an Intel box where I have to turn hardware offload off in order to not have networking 'crashes' (complete with kernel dump data) that take out my networking for 5-15sec. Chip is i218-LM r05.
I've never had an issue with my i210 and x550 chips, but this 218 is super frustrating.
Whelp, time to post this, I suppose.
The original Rosetta, which was emulating PPC on x86 is directly comparable to the situation of PS3-game-on-PS4 hardware. I was able to play Halo CE for Mac on x86 with Rosetta and it felt native.
The point is that this isn't a limitation of technology, this was a decision on Sony's part.
This method is literally killing the patient's entire immune system by irradiation. They then replace it with a donor immune system that might in turn try to kill them.
This isn't a good option for the vast majority of patients to wipe out a virus that can be well managed with drugs.
The reason that it was done here is that the treatment is intended to cure them of cancer, and as a side effect eliminates their HIV infection.
The brutal bone marrow transplant that can "cure" HIV is only an option for patients who also have leukaemia
So they wipe out all the patient's bone marrow, let them simmer in a immuno-bubble-room for a bit, then give them a stemcell bone marrow transplant from someone whose bone marrow is hiv resistant and hope to high hell that the process itself doesn't result in the patient's death.
Oh, and out of caution they continue to consider the patient HIV pos for the rest of their lives anyway.
For me, the real takeaway is that medical professionals no longer view HIV a big enough health risk to consider stuff like this viable for HIV patients in general.
Whaaat..?
