You're right, but...
The idea comes from the desktop world. AMD's zen 4 desktop cpu's especially the gaming variants like the Ryzen 7 7800X3D almost matches the performance per watt of Apple's M3.
Their laptop cpu's as some companies did release same model different cpu were less efficient than intel.
But the Asus ProArt P16 (used in the article) did manage an extreme endurance score in the video test called Big Buck Bunny H.264 1080p which runs at 150 cd/m² with 21 hours. With it's higher resolution, oled and 10% less battery capacity that's better 40 minutes better than the macbook pro 16 m3 max. In the wifi test also run at 150 cd/m² the m3 run for 16 hours, the asus 8.

For me noise matters, that Asus has a whisper mode which produces 42db as much as an M3 max under full load. Please be aware that if you're susceptible of PWM, that ASUS laptop has issues.
The EU minus Denmark and Ireland who have opted out from the area of freedom, security and justice domain. I don't see how real democratic control over CSAM-scanning is possible in the EU. But national parliaments can vote for/against laws with their version of CSAM-scanning.A new parliament can changes those laws.
"USB-IF strongly discourages its members and the industry at-large from using specification names/terminology in
consumer-facing branding, packaging, advertisements, and other marketing materials."
They recommend the following naming:
XYZ's USB 40Gbps 60W USB Type-C® Cable or USB 40Gbps 60W USB Type-C® Cable
USB 40Gbps... correspond to the USB4 Gen 3×2 mode
Hi-Speed USB is USB 2.0 (High-Speed).
A tip usb cable and a number in the logo = not USB2. A usb c cable and black/white in the logo = not USB2
Sometimes the marketing name and a logo specify a certain mode like
USB 10Gbps the marketing name is only used for USB 3.2 Gen 2×1 mode, the black/white logo with 10 Gbps always correspond to USB 3.2 Gen 2×1 mode.
If you see USB in blue and 10 Gbps in red than it's either USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 or USB4 Gen 2×1
( those modes have different encodings )
