Comment on Intel 'Downfall': Severe flaw in billions of CPUs leaks passwords and much more

This will be a concern next time I buy (or build) a pc, but this laptop is a “Hey Ma, do you still have that old laptop you don’t use from 2010? I wanna try linux” machine.
Turns out after I installed Fedora I was never able to stop using it since it is so much better than windows so now I’m going on year 2 of “shit I guess I don’t really need to upgrade if it works this well!” Lol
