This is what they say: >the system is operating exactly as it is designed to >This is not a bug or a flaw in Intel products
Also: >Intel has developed and is rapidly issuing updates for all types of Intel-based computer systems — including personal computers and servers — that render those systems immune from both exploits (referred to as “Spectre” and “Meltdown”) Which is clearly false since the Google researchers said Spectre has no fix.
Didn't Linus tell them yesterday to accept responsibility and fix their CPUs or get fucked? Why do they keep pretending everything is fine?

>How is it legal for companies to lie so much? Intel is a monopolist of GOOD cpus. That's the reason. Friendly reminder: g4600 is the best cpu that was EVER created by humanity.
Ayden Russell
Damn, I guess since Linus told them to get fucked, they'll just have to. I'm guessing Linux will drop support for intel within the hour
Adam Thompson
>Why do they keep pretending everything is fine? Because it IS fine. Calm down now, AMDrone.

Linus is an antisemite. Don't listen to him, goyim.

See the pic on That's the patch AMD made to disable the Meltdown fix on AMD CPUs
The code in checks if you are running Intel and quits itself
>Retard >Created single most used kernel in computer history
Pick one user
Tyler Edwards
>This is not a bug or a flaw in Intel products. Yeah, that's why AMD is not affected by Meltdown.
Jaxson Gonzalez
>Created single most used kernel in computer history What the fuck does corn have to do with anything? We're talking about computers.
Jordan Nguyen
they know they will get away so... why bother? Just do the normal pr bullshit.
John Diaz
Lets see which one of the two parties has most to gain from lying about this?
Gavin Nguyen
"Look Inside" What did Intel mean by this?

>Intel is unable to provide a generic update due to management engine firmware customizations performed by system and motherboard manufacturers. Reading the text makes me wonder if all the money they "invested" to solve this... were just a couple of coins to the guy who wrote that text and that's it.
Hudson Davis
They were mocking us the entire time.
Asher Myers
>The statistical analysis of these behaviors can in some cases be used to potentially expose sensitive data on computer systems that are operating as designed. These exploits do not have the potential to corrupt, modify or delete data.
But we are in the early stages. Once people have done enough statistical analysis, they can start to build heuristics, which can then be used to build a specialized tool for point and click exploitation (TAO likely already did this because it's a good idea).
Aaron Jenkins
Also you can execute whatever code you want. So you can flood the CPU so that it is forced to execute the code you want, such as a miner, monitoring software, or just ransomware.
Landon Scott
>This is not a bug or flaw >Everything is totally intended
I have absolutely no trouble believing that they knew about all these problems beforehand and intentionally fucked everyone over. Classic shintel.
Jacob Wilson

Oliver Thomas
Sheesh. That's less of a fix and more of an overhaul.
Robert Robinson
Which is why this is such a big deal. Not only are basically all modern processors potentially insecure, but all CPU design optimizations from the last 20 years might be inherently insecure.

So it's not a bug, but they still need to make an update for exploits?
Alexander Jenkins
Linus named the Jew.
Camden Butler
They already made the fist move did so w/e
Landon Harris
It is not a bug or a flaw because Intel processors are insecure by design to let the East spy on you.
Kevin James

You CAN't make this stuff up. No one would believe it.
Isn't Linus usually accused of being a blue team shill and shiting on amd in his reviews?

Can you IMAGINE how everyone at intel is feeling right now? Heads will roll
Jordan Fisher
What they mean is "we hope this wont be covered by consumer protections". A bug or flaw would be.
Sebastian Young
I still can't make user of javascript VM making anything like that...
Systemfault. Mehehe
Benjamin Roberts
We should realize one important aspect, no application that is running on shared processor has necessity to even have possibility for it's it to run this sort of bullshit. PHP can be restricted on user level to not execute stuff and thus being somehow making shared hostings running loops being capable of ignore this bug with no necessity to run individual kernell for each user, ... Guys simple don't know how to share.
Robert Perry
Intel is trying to safe face as much as possible, stock has been shed only thing left to do is hope for some gullible companies to keep supporting them.
Investors are also morons so they might eat this shit up.
Cameron Moore
Yea, right, faggots don't reckognize a feature of shared memory.
Jonathan Perry
How much of a performance hit should I expect with the emergency update on the i5-2520M?
