Parallel communication modern computers. Before the development of high-speed serial technologies, the choice of parallel links over serial links was driven by these factors: The decreasing cost and better performance of integrated circuits has led to serial links being used in favor of parallel links; for example, IEEE 1284 printer ports vs. USB, Parallel ATA vs. Serial ATA, and FireWire or Thunderbolt are now the most common connectors for transferring data from AV(audiovisual) devices such as digital cameras or professional-grade scanners that used to require purchasing a SCSI HBA years ago. One huge advantage of having fewer wires/pins in a serial cable
Serial killer that serial killers are always white might have become "truth" in some research fields due to the over-reporting of white serial killers in the media. According to some sources, the percentage of serial killers who are African American is estimated to be between 13% and 22%. Another study has shown that 16% of serial killers are African American, what author Maurice Godwin describes as a "sizeable portion". A 2014 Radford/FGCU Serial Killer Database annual statistics report indicated that for the decades 1900–2010, the percentage of white serial killers was 52.1% while the percentage of African American serial killers was 40.3%.
