No chills. Backdoors are expected these days. Linux is known to be severely lacking in security. That said, most users will give you their password if you just call them up and ask them. Backdoors are the least of my problems. We're at the point in "software engineering" where fixing one...

I don't want any of these "fixes" that affect performance. I am the only one on my machine. If the attacker has enough control to execute these attacks then they already have complete control of my machine anyway. I don't want this. I want speed. There are no other users. I want an easy way to...

Is there an easy way to turn off all these performance-killing fixes? I am the only one on my computer. No one else. If the hacker has enough control to squeak this information out of my CPU, then they already have complete control of the machine anyway. These kinds of bugs are only relevant for...

Yeah... Netgear started this with their routers. I stopped buying them. At least I knew enough to stop buying HP a long time ago... I hate subscriptions.

Doesn't matter how "memory safe" the language is. With the incredulously low standard for programmers these days, they are all a threat. Plus they all have built-in back doors anyway. Everyone knows that. I'll never give up C. Malloc() and free() and I have been best buddies for decades... Stop...

Three little words: TOLD YOU SO! Lol! Big.Little is garbage.

Cool! Now they can accomplish nothing even faster!

Oh, now that's certainly lovely! Double or triple the odds of burning your house down!

Or, you know, just don't buy anything afflicted with this obviously defective connector and make NVIDIA eat their mistake. It's not like they aren't laughing at you. They are. I can hear them from here.

Pretty much nothing unless you've got a 1K HZ refresh monitor. Or, you know, "my mouse is faster than your mouse" bragging rights, if that is relevant to you. Other than that I think it is overall a net detriment to system performance. Devices should not be polled. Devices should be interrupt...

If the ARM instruction set wasn't so annoying I'd root for them. I mean, come on. Who really needs a barrel shifter anyway? Maybe if they hid it better under a more sensible assembly language... I still think Intel and AMD would be far better off making a completely stripped x86 instruction set...

I still believe that NVIDIA should be paying for all these cable replacements. They knew. There is no way they could not have known.

This would be nice. 1000+ years storage time. Good luck to them!

This is 10,000% awesome! No doubt in my mind this is the first real significant step in useful robotics evolution. Boston Dynamics has had their fun, but this little rascal here puts them to shame. Gotta start saving up so I can get one of these...

So... more laggy imaginary imagery is the new normal, eh? Sounds suspiciously to me like they're just making excuses to feed us more new hardware that we don't need and don't want. They wouldn't do that, would they? Hint for the sarcasm-impaired: Yes! That last statement in the previous...
