Then why buy an iPhone? There are phones designed for seniors that do just that. You don't need to pay 10-30x more for functionality you don't need and can't understand. Buy a Doro if you just want to call.

I wish AMD would make ECC a properly advertised feature with clear motherboard support. At least DDR5 has some level of ECC.
Besides AMD CPUs of the early 2000s going up in smokes without working cooling, they all throttle before they become temporarily or permanently unstable. Otherwise they are bad.
I've never had a desktop part fail due to max temperatures, but I don't think I've owned one that advertises nor allows itself to reach or remain at 100c or higher.
If someone sells a CPU that's specified to work at 100 or 110 degrees and it doesn't then it's either defective or fraudulent, no excuses.
My point is various drives are bad and causes issues not only with Windows, be it with some or all firmwares from the manufacturer. Among them the only specific drive mentioned in the article. If WD advertises this mode then it ought to work.
This could just as well as a bug, be the Windows kernel now being better optimized to take advantage of fast storage media. Perhaps the software cache, scheduling, and what not became a bottleneck, and they fixed that. Unless it's part of the NVMe standard or what have you that the OS IO scheduler should not attempt writing "too fast", it's hard to blame it in good faith.
Say you'd want to pop outside in the nice weather to do some programming. You quickly find why that wasn't as glamorous as you expected. But if you had a laptop with such a screen I would expect it to work great.
