- jotm 5y agoEh, all the time = maybe once a year. Still no Spectre/Meltdown exploits in the wild. Most Windows XP users don't even know about Reddit and shit.
- rosndo 5y agoNeither spectre nor meltdown were very exciting vulnerabllities. Technically interesting, but too hard to usefully exploit in the browser. LPE? Those are a dime in a dozen. Nobody cares about home users, it’s businesses which this hurts.
- jotm 5y agoThat's interesting, because I clearly remember it being "the end of modern processors as we know it". But yeah, media is garbage and people will overhype anything.
