Microsoft fuckup apparently. Who’d have thought centralising everything would be so risky.

Hopefully this will be a wake up call! Every big company should have in house back up system that will get them through at least 2 weeks!

Priority should be Hospitals Transport for this! You can't have the everything important standing still if one company gets hacked or fucks up!

Crowdstrike, anti malware/criminal software issue on Windows PC's. Just happens to affect Microsoft only computers, that are running Crowdstrike. The rollout for Crowdstrike updates, clearly didn't have enough throttling applied initially...

I bet the junior developer that coded the update is getting throttled, right now.

Why not just go along and see?

Worst case scenario is you take some cash out instead.

It’s a near hour on the bus. Already been through beautiful Birkenhead and now sunny Rock Ferry.

I was able to buy a ticket for Hereford v Birmingham City U21’s this morning so it may only effect some businesses.

No point fretting though is there. If you need to change buses and have time visit an ATM.

If you are going all that way just for a bit of shopping I'm sure you'll find another way to make it worth while.

AS400?

A bit later on yes, but started as a sysprog on 370s and 3090s.

Fond memories of the AS400, not sexy but a decent and flexible workhorse. With the smaller models that weren't rack mounted it used to always make me smile where customers found homes for them.

Not MS afterall, looks like its a cyber security company called CloudStrike. sounds as though they did a driver update last night and its crashing windows machines at a kernel level.

Normally stuff like this would be done in a staged manor so issues wouldnt be so bad but it got pushed globally. If this is true its a fuck up of epic proportions.

Kernel level? Is that because people ask "what the fuck kernel is wrong with it this time?"

Cheshire Oaks is pretty special. All good brands but well discounted.

I recall getting the bus from town to the Trafford Centre once but forgot the rags were at home. The traffic was horrendous with them all getting off to Surrey.
