macsformewell, there goes the useful life of my 9-year-old Westmere Xeon CPUs01:14
macsformethis attack looks pretty bad... the recommendation to harden systems seems to be disabling hyperthreading entirely01:14
macsformeand no new microcodes for my generation of CPUs, either01:15
macsformeoh, and no newer desktop towers than my 10-year-old model from Apple for me to upgrade to, either (the model from the year after and three years after had almost exactly the same components)01:21
macsformenot sure what they are even thinking (or maybe they aren't)01:22
blast007time to get my 8086 working again :P01:35
blast007they can't hack me if there's no network!01:36
blast007many of my systems don't have hyperthreading at all01:38
blast007only found one motherboard manufacturer that has recently (March 2018) released an updated BIOS for a Sandy Bridge compatible board.  The rest, including Intel's own boards, are more like 2012/2013 as the last BIOS update...01:59
