Dave of Dave's Garage explained it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBn3FbKusZI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBn3FbKusZI Basically (according to him) they disabled the spectre/meltdown mitigation if you were an admin - because you were an admin and have full rights to the machine anyway. So now they are doing that for all users? He wasn't clear - or at least it wasn't clear to me. So the mitigations are no longer needed? I think I have more questions than before after listening to that.

Dave lies. A lot. I would take anything he says with a bucket of salt.

  Interesting. I just found his channel. What does he lie about? Factual stuff or MS history?

    Just the latest one. https://x.com/davepl1968/status/1812559735616577565 https://x.com/davepl1968/status/1812559735616577565 He claims he wrote realtime rendering of vertical text in start menu. Turns out he didn't. No released or unreleased version or source code show that.

That logic doesn't pass a sniff test at all.
