Technology

Well, this being the Internet it's natural to expect less than impeccable truth from strangers here, both because a lot of people just want to feel like they "won" the argument no matter what so they'll bullshit their way into a "win", because most people aren't really trained in the "trying to be as completed and clear as possible" mental processes as Engineers and Scientists (so there's a lot of "I think this might be such" being passed as "it is such") and because it simply feels bad to be wrong so most people don't want to accept it when somebody else proves them wrong and react badly to it.

I'm actually a trained Electronics Engineer but since I don't actually work in that domain and studied it decades ago, some of what I wrote are informed extrapolations based on what learned and stuff I read over the years rather than me being absolutely certain that's how things are done nowadays (which is why looking up and reading that Intel spec was very interesting, even if it turned out things are mainly is as I expected).

Also I'm sorry for triggering you, you don't need to say sorry for your reaction and I didn't really took it badly: as I said, this is the Internet and a lot of people are argumentative for the sake of "winning" (probably the same motivation as most gaslighters) so I expect everybody to be suspicious of my motivations, same as they would be for all other people since from their point of view I'm just another random stranger ;)

Anyways, cheers for taking the trouble of explaining it and making sure I was okay with out interaction - that's far nicer and more considerate than most random internet strangers.
