    @Jamiec1130 I believe it’s a security hole in Intel’s firmware.

    @techstorm970 its a flaw in the kernel meaning theres a memory leak allowing anyone to control your computer

    it will require a hardware patch to properly fix this issue

    yeah @techstorm970 the worst part is how smug AMD users are as they need physical access to the system to do this exploit, called spectre i believe, @AluminiumTech has some posts on this which are worth a read
