My bad, I didn't see the joke for what it was. I'm US based and I'm trying to not be stressed given we have a chance of dealing with fucking Donald Trump again. I do wish we'd do more to teach about how bad fascism truly is, but at least I get to understand given my heritage.

While you are correct that he didn't directly cause it, his actions allowed it to become as bad as it was. Had he been less of a piece of shit about it, it's quite possible that it could have been limited and had a much smaller impact so I feel fine with my previous statement as is.

For context, consider how the ebola outbreak was handled under Obama. As soon as we became aware of it, we had teams going directly to the outbreak sites and dealing with the problem. There was no "shelter in place" in the states, no global pandemic. Contrast that to covid-19 which people on 4chan were posting about before oompa loompa decided to give a shit.

And that's for a disease that is very infectious. https://www.paho.org/en/topics/ebola-virus-disease#:~:text=Ebola%20Virus%20Disease%20is%20a,only%20when%20they%20show%20symptoms.

So I stand by my statement, Donald Trump is a piece of shit and caused the global plague.

Yeah, no. He caused a plague first time around, dipshit doesn't deserve a second chance.

She's not wrong though

Catch me up on the drama please?

Homie, I have a bathroom that is the literal T from Tetris. I got a bidet installed in mine ezmode.

Devs are hardcore tankies. It's unfortunate

You shouldn't assume that, he's probably going to rant for 75% of it about how Biden called the shot.

Shhh Don't let the secret out. He's having to deny couch fucking and it's great.

Is this a feature okta provides? They did a demo at my work 2 years back and only talked about their authentication services. Content moderation could be an interesting company direction though I suppose.

Update: I checked their site and they don't mention anything about content moderation. I'd be surprised if marketing didn't try to offer this as a service to people https://www.okta.com/professional-services-for-your-business/

I don't want a couch fucker as my veep

Vance has fucked a couch

I drove past that exact house right before the accident!

What do you mean fix it? I haven't had an issue with vscode or extensions unless I was going against established patterns.

For an actual recommendation, if you were fine with tmux and vim rock em yo. Don't forget vim has panes as well.

I'm not impacted. I'm just outlining why people are still impacted.

Oh I'm not affected by this at all. I'm just explaining the issue and why we're not out of the forest yet. I fully agree that this is the fault of the companies for having garbage update and back up policies. I also blame crowdstrike for having a shit tier qa policy.

This is great and a hats off to Microsoft for whipping it up so fast,that being said you'll still need the recovery key for bitlocker which is the ultimate problem; a bitlockered crowdstriked active directory server storing all of the bitlocker recovery keys.

Wrong. Gimme a black woman to vote for and I'll do it.

I'm pissed because we pissed away the emcumbant advantage but what's done is done, here's hoping we get to celebrate the first female president instead of orange Hitler.

Gotcha gotcha, I've had to go from zero to hero more times than I can count. It was a mandate at the start ups where I was the sole DevOps guy. It's been a boon at my large well established company. I'd say I'm not a fan but first I did it I got an unexpected raise so life was good

Homie, I work in IT. I graduated from college with a degree in network security. So please consider that experience as your read my response.

This is a problem caused by companies putting in the minimum of effort to secure their systems and no effort to have a valid server back up strategy.

I'll try and keep things high level since I don't know if you're in the field or not but you sound like you aren't. In short, a driver (something low level used for an operating system to interact with a piece of hardware usually) got released which was full of bunk data. That caused a blue screen of death. This is a fixable situation you need to reboot your computer into a mode called "safe mode" and delete the bunk driver.

That's not the problem though, the problem is when you use another piece of security software called bitlocker to enceypt your enterprise equipment AND servers. You can't reboot into safe mode without a decryption key which most companies store on a piece of server software (called active directory) on a server ... which is also using both crowdstrike and bitlocker.

Your data is inaccessible and the best option is to restore from a backup which as we're seeing, few people have.

This isn't a cyber attack. This is human incompetence and business greed.
