Kernel-memory-leaking Intel processor design flaw forces Linux, Windows redesign

What about compensatio?

WTF? What happens when an airbag manufacturer produces exploding mines that hit you in the face when you have a low speed prang? Do you just accept the performance penalty and drive at 10mph?

Why hasn't anyone mentioned compensation? This isn't the only fuck up by intel? What about the great lock elison debacle on the first gen Bradwells and Haswells? We accepted that we had our processors crippled and now we have to take a performance hit as well?

I say the chipzilla should pay. I believe 25% of list price for the processor is a decent compensation amount.
