are you behind a wsus that isn't getting new patches? I got the windows patch and the software stuff showed as fixed and then once I installed 1.7.0 it showed the hardware stuff was fixed.

Apple has rolled out the specter update to its iOS devices, and I’m assuming they must have rolled it out to OS X that being said, there haven’t been a lot of reported issues with that update, I wonder why hmmm...

and ms claims it's because some chipsets don't conform to spec, which is the most believable thing ever written about athlon 64 chipsets

Lenovo had the great idea to push bios updates that launch automatically in the background. Except they gently caress with the video drivers, making PCs go into black screens out of nowhere. So people think their PC crashed and reboot them while the bios update is in progress Several people at my company bricked their workstations today because of this

that's a synthetic benchmark though. it covers a lot of different tasks but are those really representative of daily use? rigid body physics simulation? ray tracing, on a phone? really? kind interested in what the "camera" one is that lost 45% though. isn't most camera performance based on the imaging chipset and not really the cpu?

A lot of those look pretty "daily use" to me. JPEG, HTML5 parsing, PDF rendering, all down like 40%.

in one benchmark attempt on one phone, with questionable controls i mean maybe it is that bad, but i wouldn't take this as proof of that
