'Completely unprecedented' outage causes havoc with IT systems across globe — as it happened
www.abc.net.au
A massive IT systems outage caused by issues with CrowdStrike software affects banks, airports, supermarkets and media companies across Australia and around the world.

All our servers and company laptops went down at pretty much the same time. Laptops have been bootlooping to blue screen of death. It’s all very exciting, personally, as someone not responsible for fixing it.

Apparently caused by a bad CrowdStrike update.

Edit: now being told we (who almost all generally work from home) need to come into the office Monday as they can only apply the fix in-person. We’ll see if that changes over the weekend…

    for one you could tell them your greed and laziness has led to this. when it was clear (windows3.11) that bill gates is a thief (qdos) and crook (mom make that ibm deal) you chose to stick with “easy”. ask the doctors how chosing that path would impact their work.

    what needs to happen to make you get you off your high horse and ditch close source? and please dont lecture me on " how hard it is to change"…youve shown that already.

    face the consequences of your actions.
