gollark: Most villains in, well, media seem pretty stupid. They're just "ah yes I will be evil for no reason", do stupid things, and get surprised when they fail.
gollark: What is or isn't a bottleneck is obviously heavily dependent on what you actually do with your computer/what games you play/etc, and you can't get some convenient exact value, let alone one to ~~one decimal place~~ 3 significant figures.
gollark: I wouldn't really take automatic bottleneck calculators very seriously.
gollark: The iPhone Xyzzy PlusProS™ will actually deprecate all non-Apple WiFi connectivity because everyone knows it's unreliable and obviously 5G™ or Apple 6G™ are better.
