the fix has a bug that makes the cpu operate an average of 30% slower on benchmark tasks

you likely won't notice a difference on normal computer operation

the people who are affected the most are industry professionals (movies, photo, websites, etc) and pc gamers.

It's pretty shitty for me since I just bought a new laptop last month.. specifically to get back into PC gaming.

I also do some video editing here and there, but I don't really give a shit if that's slower because it's something I can just run and walk away from.

I'm hoping mine is one of the ones that only takes a 5-10% hit or so. 30% is pretty fucking substantial.

just don't install the update, live on the edge lmao

don't actually do this, the big performance hit is mostly for cloud computing anyway, won't do much for individual PCs and gamers
