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…

    Someone should invent a game, that while playing demonstrates how much monopolies suck for everyone involved (except the monopolist)

      And make it so you lose friends and family over the course of the 4+ hour game. Also make a thimble to fight over, that would be dope.

      I’m sure a game that’s so on the nose with its message could never become a commercialised marketing gimmick that perversely promotes existing monopolies. Capitalists wouldn’t dare.
