      Yeah, the name has long been up there with SolarWinds in the category of, "Is it an IT platform, or is it a dark money laundering operation for some rich d-bag?"

          • I like how a security app that has control over the windows kernel has so little control that it was allowed to inject this BS onto the World. May Crowdstrike and all it's shareholders lose everything.

              CrowdStrike is a company that provides security to computers/networked devices. They prevent bad guys from gaining access and can be used to prevent users from accessing system files.

              CrowdStrikes software interacts at the kernel level with Microsoft Windows so it can do it's gatekeeping. Crowdstrike's latest update fudged up at the kernel level, which is the heart of Windows, hence the blue-screen-of-death during boot.


              Another sh*tty analogy is that your gas engine car is Microsoft Windows. Crowdstrike would be a container of Heet added to your gas tank to keep the engine running well. Only this time, CrowdStrike's most recent can of Heet was actually a container of sugar. Tesla and Rivian (Mac and Linux) are unaffected.
              Thanks for the explanation. I know less than nothing about this stuff, so I had no clue how this was playing out other than seeing BSoD Memes all over the place, ha ha.

                What a bunch of fffing crap. If they can cause this much havoc on their own just imagine what happens when the black hat guys figure it all out.

                • But these are only piecemeal solutions. The bigger problem is the supply chain itself for cloud computing and, by extension, cyber security services, which has left too many companies and organizations vulnerable to a single point of failure. When just three companies — Microsoft, Amazon and Alphabet Inc.’s Google — dominate the market for cloud computing, one minor incident can have global ramifications.

                  Found what I was looking for. This is the American model of capitalism now. There is no competition anywhere. We have reaped what we have sown.

                    • Woof. I took my daughter to see the new Despicable Me movie in the theater. (Wife is out of town, and so on…)

                      Two tickets, a large popcorn, pop, a thing of candy and an Icee $51 and change at AMC in IGH. And the popcorn was probably from last night - early last night - along with no ice in all four of the dispensers. This is why I seldom go to a movie at the theater anymore. The classic movie experience just isn’t worth it anymore.
