Is Intel really planning on making this shit architectural? Has anybody talked to them and told them they are f*cking insane?
They do literally insane things. They do things that do not make sense. That makes all your [i.e. Woodhouses] arguments questionable and suspicious. The patches do things that are not sane.
So somebody isnt telling the truth here. Somebody is pushing complete garbage for unclear reasons. Sorry for having to point that out.
...Intel, for its part, offered the following statement: We take the feedback of industry partners seriously. We are actively engaging with the Linux community, including Linus, as we seek to work together on solutions. So at least they seem to still be on a first-name basis.

As long as you got the hint, I don’t mind being thought of as a bit too animated.
And, you think too much. Do less of it, and you’ll be better off. ;)
“I think, therefore I am”
Try it, you might like it.
Unfortunately, as with a majority of tech-related conversations on FR, this one became unreadable about halfway through the thread. (Sigh)
“Pls name your OS of choice.”
Fortran, Cobol, Pascal, Dr. DOS (Digital Research Dos).
Hey, you asked (and I’m kinda old fashioned, LOL).
I loved DR DOS and stayed with it for too many years; after CPM.
Now dual boot Linux/Win, but it has been a while since I used Windows, I fear to try, could take forever to update?
And even more, afraid to shut anything down in the middle of an update.
Don’t need any bricks.
