I thought you could check if the spectre patch was applied without needing anything weird like this.
Nathaniel Stewart
Litterally this. I ain't running that shit unless I go through the source with a fine comb. Regardless, I already know I am vulnerable to all of the attacks. I haven't updated my kernel since a bit before the vulnerabilities became public because the latest kernel completely fucks up my laptops display. The latest kernel doesn't even think I have a display on the laptop at all. I have been meaning to find where the issue is but I am not concerned since I don't just run random shit.

or just cat /proc/cpuinfo

Whoda thunk. In the end it's your own fault for using custom hardware. Don't be a cheapskate and buy a proper laptop next time.
Xavier Gray
this, I ain't just runnin that shit. jesus fuck

This is actually a Chromebook. Linux support should be perfect. And it was... Until the kernelfags changed something. Changing to openbsd right now. It more or less just werks.
Christopher Watson
incelfags on suicide watch. how do you even dare go on the internet?
Lincoln Hughes
We already did this ages ago.
Daniel Flores
Spector doesn't affect internet usage. Just local software.
>inb4 browsers though
Already mitigated
Lucas Torres
there is people here vulnerable tho
Benjamin Howard
Nigger that's an oversized smartphone, they don't support it beyond release. They expect you to buy a new one every year.
Kevin Collins
remember the spectre checker for linux hosted on github that included malware? that was something.
Joseph Taylor
Linux supports old shit Windows won't. Linux != ChromeOS Fuck off brainlet.
Caleb Bennett
That's not how it works. If nobody cares to support something, it falls out of stability with the rest of the system and eventually breaks. Nobody gives a shit to support Chromebooks, not even Google, so Linux support deteriorates over time.
Thomas Evans
how's performance with it on linux
Adrian Morgan
Ran it on my Ubuntu 18.04.01 VM on my Threadripper 1900X rig. Came out pretty solid. Sucks to be an Intel CPU owner.
Grayson Parker
so where is the patch for linux?
