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…
Heard linux systems had a similar issue a few months ago
Yeah the more I read it seems some crucial security software deployed bad patch.
I’m sure whatever OS would dominate would face widespread issues just by the numbers.
But to be fair it’s fun to make fun of Windows/MSFT :p
