    confidential cpus are typically engineering samples, usually given to motherboard companies to work on bioses for the cpu generation and meant to be returned to the company after done. engeering sample cpus can be missing features, lower clocks and such that the retail varient may have.

    as for geneeation of cpu, its easier to find out via what motherboard socket it is

    on thecontext of finding second hand, i wouldnt say its common, but can happen. some chinese companies sell dirt cheap ES cpus for basic computing.

    the ilm says lga 115x, so its either 1156(1st gen), 1155(2nd or 3rd gen), 1150(4th and 5th gen) or 1151(6th to 8th gen)



  • its more or less the pro/con of strong labor laws vs at will.

    strong labor laws guarantees both sides will have some body to work a position, but theyre almost handcuffed together forever, so its extremely imperative to find the correct candidate.

    at will has poor job security, but you have the freedom to get out of the contract with the other party as long as its not a protected reason. at will lets people jump jobs more often which is better for increasing your pay. but it has a shit saftey net, so the people at the bottom struggle.









  • gacha have element of chance, but usually speaking, gacha especially in asian games tend to also be tied to some form of power and is not purely cosmetic.

    ao its not just purely, i want this character/costume/weapon because it looks cool, but theyres stats attached to it.

    western game loot boxes generally sit more often as coametic, so the desire to pay isnt as bad (but can still be bad) but of course this doesnt apply to all western games either. an example of gacha based power is ultimate teams for sports games, which its gacha has players stats tied to them for team building.

    gacha and loot boxes are fundamentally the same, but connotatively, gacha usually implies power and lootbox implies cosmetics, but technically not incorrect to use it either way.

    if you want a dumb comparison, gacha is seen like trading card games, where power of the card also has value.

    lootbox is sorta like sports cards where its collective in nature and really is about rarity/how the card looks
