Hello, security engineer that has installed CrowdStrike on thousands of computers.
A thread on the outage and what is exactly happening.
Here’s a quick explainer on what *seems* to be the cause of the CrowdStrike outage and why it happened so quickly.
so did heinrich not know about that article the other day because I can’t fathom choosing to put out a statement *after* having it in print that the statement is at the behest of your donor giving you a couple thousand dollars
looking at machine that gives me (tiktok euphemism) depression: (tiktok euphemism) depressed
spending a week not doing that: no longer (tiktok euphemism) depressed
looking at machine again: (tiktok euphemism) ideation again
science has yet to explain this
it’s comforting to think that the only reason republicans vote for racist, inhumane policies is because they just don’t know any better and are just voting the way their folks did and didn’t put any thought into it but it’s also not actually true and, dare I say, “cope”
you'd think the 2022 elections would have put to rest the idea that kentucky is secretly populated with a huge amount of socialists who just need a sufficiently left candidate to run to energize them, and yet
while i'm on my niche fandom shit: have i talked about how weird it is that blush blush has not one but two thinly-veiled let's players in it (who they did not ask for permission to be in it) and you do get to see their genitals. that's weird, right
imo the writing in psychonauts 2 is weaker than the writing in psychonauts 1, largely due to no longer having wolpaw on the writing team. however, the interns sucking and not being very interesting compared to the campers is a small price to pay for bob/helmut and their respective mental worlds
andy beshear IS real and strong and my friend but i don't think he should run nationally for a while. also i need to move out of kentucky before his gubernatorial term is up "lol" "lmao"
anyway im drinking right now and thinking about firefly/killer moth. dc would make it happen but unfortunately they are cowards and also don't remember killer moth exists
given the lack of change in the polls, very hard to believe that any enthusiasm over biden dropping would outweigh the disgust at how transparently the strings are being yanked by millionaires and the press
at the ben folds concert and this is how i find out there was a fantasy island reboot (not the terrible horror movie reboot, a tv show reboot that came out one year after the terrible horror movie)
maybe it’s the hot weather affecting my mood but boy our new intern is maybe the most infuriating and least helpful intern we’ve had since I started working here. for the love of god can you at least not visibly be sleeping at your desk
a visual novel i kickstarted and thought was dead due to various Real Life Circumstances is back on (yay!!!!) but has had the art style completely overhauled and also the characters massively reconfigured in a much less interesting and appealing way (unyay)
still extremely funny that deltarune ch 2 had a certified Sexy character who's a catgirl maid domme with a whip but the fans played and went "no. you know what i want? the balding personified spam advertisement marionette who lives in a dumpster and lays eggs"
googled "what is the difference between cage the elephant and young the giant" and apparently they're going on tour together now which just makes it more unclear
tmbw.net rules because I can look up a song and someone will have said “I think this one’s about the ghost of richard nixon singing to bill clinton” and i’ll go yeah man sounds about right
"yes we hounded yet another black columnist off of here for entirely arbitrary reasons but you don't understand, it's not about him, it's about trans people being allowed to express themselves" okay well i'm a trans person and i'm expressing myself: stop being self-centered dipshits for once
I’m eating a cinnamon roll in the baltimore airport. my flight, which was originally supposed to leave in fifteen minutes, has been delayed by about an hour and forty-five minutes. alas
