Isn't it obvious why the checker keeps giving you a failing grade?
Older apps also weren't built with retpoline compilers, either.
- I had to go back to old brave Chromium: 80.X (2020/02)..
But I think I wil be able to live with tpi isolation, the important to me was the browser, I usually open 30 tabs and need them be as smooth as possible to work with them..
Updated Kernel 4.4.238 and enables Isolation for Spectre.. microde stopped in 2010 for my CPU so it doesnt matter to updated.. with theses measure I closed five or six holes, still remain the ones that need last microcode and others modern cpus's features..
here, the test.:
