Huge Microsoft Outage Linked to CrowdStrike Takes Down Computers Around the World
A software update from cybersecurity company CrowdStrike appears to have inadvertently disrupted IT systems globally.www.wired.com
Aye
I was looking at homes in Akron Ohio, they go for less than $300k all day, some decent ones for less than 200! 500k gets you some balling properties.Single family homes in the U.S. are too expensive and I'm not sure I'll ever be able to buy one if something doesn't change someday.
I've been looking at getting a newer vehicle for a while, but between the dealer pricing bullshit and all the features I just don't want or need, I'm perfectly fine with driving my 2000 Silverado into the ground with me.The more I find out about "features" that require monthly subscriptions in new cars the more I fall into the "fuck buying a new car" camp
Not that I'm in the market but I feel the same. I'm going to drive my 2014 Camry until it can't be repaired any more.I've been looking at getting a newer vehicle for a while, but between the dealer pricing bullshit and all the features I just don't want or need, I'm perfectly fine with driving my 2000 Silverado into the ground with me.

But I'm pretty sure I'd be miserable in Ohio lol. Guess I'm entitled.
Someone screwed up bad when I wake up to messages from all of my non-tech-savvy family saying their jobs are shutdown and their banks aren't working. Apparently, it shut down a bunch of bank systems and tons of people didn't get paid, etc.God, I wish I used Windows at work.
I've heard it's shrinking as well, some amenities may be lacking I assume.My dad lived in Akron for awhile. I wasn't impressed.
Apparently, it affected airports, I've seen online pics of store monitors bluescreen'd...Someone screwed up bad when I wake up to messages from all of my non-tech-savvy family saying their jobs are shutdown and their banks aren't working.

Just the name made me think it was some kind of virus or malware lolI've heard it's shrinking as well, some amenities may be lacking I assume.

Makes me happy that I write bullshit software for a bullshit purpose so when things break, it just means some corporate person couldn't book a hotel/plane/etc.
What an odd name, too: Crowdstrike Falcon. Only an American based company would choose a name that sounds like some kind of weapon. I thought that was the name of malware, not the product itself.
As long as Crowdstrike didn't eff up my vehicular doxxing of me, all is well.Just start reading about how much new cars track you and spy on you.
There's a X (formerly Twitter) thing getting shared around of someone trying to convince an airline gate agent person to let them fix the computer for them.Apparently, it affected airports
It's supposed to be quite the opposite - it's a corporate antivirus type thing. I've seen it all over the place. I'd say I'm shocked that such a widespread piece of software screwed up that badly, but then, it's not the first time half the internet was at risk of crumbling over some dumb mistake.

Ohio is a cultural wasteland. I fucking hated living there when I was doing travel nursingMy dad lived in Akron for awhile. I wasn't impressed.
Minimally, I wipe my "user data" before taking my car in. I doubt it does much, but it is something.This is exactly why I'm looking into importing a hilux or getting an older tacoma rather than a new one.
The newer cars are just too onerous with the data they're trying to collect. Mozilla had a report saying that Nissan (and other brands) were gathering all kinds of sensitive personal information that has nothing to do with safety or diagnostics. That's largely why I'm trying to get a Hilux or an older Tacoma.Minimally, I wipe my "user data" before taking my car in. I doubt it does much, but it is something.
I kind of (barely) can understand the marketing for a "smart fridge" but a toaster? Fuckin hell. No. Stop it.It's the Internet of Things! Your toaster is spying on you! (And you're paying a premium for the privilege.)
