    Well if you are on a budget go for the B450 Tomohawk, its not a bad board at all for the price point and the ability to flash the BIOS is quite a good selling point.

    I'm surprised Huawei doesn't roll out their own. If North Korea can do their own distro of Linux, surely China's biggest telecom company can.

    Own a restaurant so can speak from it, I’m not really enthused about paper straws, but plastic straws need to go. ( I live in the Great Barrier Reef and go scuba diving a lot, plastic fucking everywhere). There’s no true alternative yet so whatever you end up with has a compromise compared to plastic. Paper is the best alternative for really thick drinks like thick shakes as they’re wide.
     
    We trialled basically every type of straw.
     
    Metal Straw Pros: Not disposable. Cons: To reuse, have to clean them. When you use several hundred straws a day, that’s a notable rise in labour cost. You also can’t bite down (which a lot of people do reflexively on straws) without hurting yourself, there’s no flex. Also high upfront cost they have a taste to them.  Paper straw. Pros: Reasonably cheap much better for environment than plastic. Cons: go soggy impact taste of drink. Bamboo Straw Pros: None really. Feel better than metal straws and does effect taste of drink Cons: Expensive, hard, have to clean. silicon Straw Pros: Most similar to plastic - great flex, can bite down, doesn’t effect taste. Cons: Expensive, have to clean. Straw straw This is what we ended up using, it’s so close to being the perfect straw. Pros: Cheap - less than $0.01 per straw. Not as cheap as plastic but closest too. Can bite down, theres just enough malleabilitY Compostable, we use them in the garden compost that we use to grow herbs Don’t have to be cleaned Don’t affect taste of drink Cons: Not enough flex to bend, will just snap variable width, so sometimes have to use two straws.  Usually too thin for really thick slushies.

    They're straws made of cardboard/harder paper as opposed to the plastic ones that they currently use. There are some benefits and some negatives. I recommend you do your own research on it so I don't influence your opinion with mine.
     
    Metal straws are superior to anything.
