I'm putting it in the category of general purpose transient incompetency, because it is so worthy of ridicule it could never have achieved the nefarious end goal an imaginative mind would imagine. Also in that category, is I'm only finding the updated license reported on Tom's Hardware and not Intel's blog or press release pages. So, I'm chocking it up to Intel just stepping on their own dick again. *shrug* https://www.tomshardware.com/news/intel-cpu-microcode-benchmark-mitigation,37684.html -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/A26UUWQL5GT43FAPJNKUUT75ZNN7PJN3/
