CPU pinning is pretty useful for virtual machines, i.e. I've used it myself to improve performance on a VFIO setup, by limiting which cores where qemu runs on and thus improving cache locality. https://wiki.archlinux.org

I do buy on Bandcamp, and I've got YouTube Music for streaming. Streaming and buying music is _mostly_ OK nowadays, I've included it for sake of argument, the real problem lies with the movie industry.
