Paul MaudDib posted:Potentially, if you only have one or two HDDs in your rig, you could do that with Gigabit too, if your mobo has dual NICs or you can add an adapter card. Having a dedicated channel between your main rig and your NAS actually owns pretty hard. Probably not cheaper than IB these days, but maybe more flexible. I used to do this with Firewire before gigabit became cheap enough for me

We probably won't know until a year or so down the road when we see if the CEO change results in any difference in the roadmaps.

I'm a little confused for some reason; I'm planning on building a Ryzen computer within the next week and just wanna make sure a Ryzen revision isn't due within the next month or two?

This is probably the one time I'm gonna agree that it's a conspiracy. Yeah, Intel probably paid a fly-by-night security firm to do some poking around on AMD processors and see what they could dig up. it was an NVIDIA false-flag operation

repiv posted:CTS Labs, a security consultancy, don't even have HTTPS set up on their main site Yeah, there are no contact details, and the whois page is also fishy. I suspect that this "consultancy" could be some unscrupulous firm thrown a few dollars by Intel. The page only just appeared, too. There was no record of it before January on the wayback machine in its current state. Before that it was just a landing page. vv Yeah, that's just frankly comical.

I love that one of the exploits requires a BIOS reflash, which for me is beyond even physical access in the realm of "if you can do this, can't you do whatever you want already?"

Here's a quote from the disclaimer on the website:quote:Although we have a good faith belief in our analysis and believe it to be objective and unbiased, you are advised that we may have, either directly or indirectly, an economic interest in the performance of the securities of the companies whose products are the subject of our reports. Uh huh. Totally not trying to manipulate stock for their own profit.

im pretty sure every dipshit hacker on earth has been looking for CPU vulnerabilities after meltdown/spectre got so much press, especially on AMD platforms since they didnt get hit as bad. i highly doubt intel would be dumb enough to get involved in this type of low level trash, but who knows.

I read the thing looking for any actual CVEs and the entire thing looks like a hatchet job designed to scare institutional investors away from AMD. Lots of bright, pretty graphics and scary sounding phrases, but no proof of concepts, actual expoits, or anything more than 'if yuo load code in the ring 0 management engine, bad things could happen!!!11!'. Which, to be fair, is true, but also completely retarded to list as an exploit/risk.

Techpowerup has a decent summary here. Basically, Ryzenfall and Fallout let you take over the PSP with only a root password (even if this is inside a VM), and from there you can pivot to writing the BIOS (Masterkey) or bypass driver signing and write the chipset drivers (Chimera). So yeah, individually the latter two are not that big a deal, but in combination with the ability to take over the PSP they give persistence. At least one researcher claims to have access to the POC exploits: https://twitter.com/dguido/status/973628933034991616 https://twitter.com/dguido/status/973628933034991616 https://twitter.com/dguido/status/973630637012848640 https://twitter.com/dguido/status/973633423851032580 I'm sure there will be patches coming along at some point, and the attempt to manipulate the stock is quite shameless, but they are real vulnerabilities in the PSP firmware. edit: and he provided commentary for this article: https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/kzpm5x/amd-secure-processor-ryzen-epyc-vulnerabilities-and-backdoors Paul MaudDib fucked around with this message at 21:23 on Mar 13, 2018 |

This feels like that argument a few months ago* over whether it was reasonable for Linux to automatically mount the BIOS as rw but with a ~whitepaper~ and made by opportunistic shitheads I'd like the SEC to ream out with a power drill. * I'm not sure if it was even in this thread sorry if that's confusing people

Disregarding the questionable motives and potentially fake companies in play here, can we all take a moment to recognize how great the name "Ryzenfall" is? Seriously, that's clever.

Titanfall 2 was mis-publicized so that EA could acquire Respawn on the cheap, I'm afraid to say. Which is a shame, because it was a *great* game. I even played multiplayer of it for a good month or two!

It was so much loving fun, with nuanced, skilled movement and an engine that could scale from toasters to the gucci-est of systems. Hell, it even supported 21:9 without breaking a sweat.
