    Is that the exploit that actually required physical access to the computer and was therefore pretty much likely to not affect 99.999999% of people with nVidia cards?

    Understeer is when you hit a wall with the front of your car
    Oversteer is when you hit a wall with the back of your car
    Horsepower is how fast your car hits the wall
    Torque is how far your car sends the wall across the field once you've hit it
