It seems like almost nobody here actually knows what integrated graphics are, and cannot distinguish between "intel" and "integrated".
Integrated graphics are graphics processed by the CPU (central/computer processing unit) instead of the GPU (graphics processing unit). To call integrated graphics "an integrated graphics card" is a fallacy because it is actually the lack of a discrete card. Think of integrated graphics as a very tiny and very lame graphics card stuffed inside that tiny little CPU chip.
Just because something is intel does not make it not work. There are intel CPU's that have no integrated graphics whatsoever. They will function fine assuming their clock speed is not crap. More importantly, you can have a CPU with integrated graphics from intel and still run shaders. All you need is an actual graphics card to run it with. I have an intel integrated CPU, but I can run shaders at quality level 6 because I have a radeon 7850 in my machine as well.
Bottom line, intel technology is not a cancer, it is not broken. It literally means that your graphics are not powerful enough to run shaders. Even if you have a discrete card, if it's old as hell you probably can't run shaders for the exact same reason. Please stop saying "when will badspot fix shaders for intel" or "why can't intel run shaders"
