@tk Also very nice. I e been rocking a mini at work and it's been flawless for three years now.

It should. They're great workstations.

@kaia Yeah it's always mystified me this is considered a good idea. No progress is going to be made.

@lain Rush A for Anschluss

@kaia You wacky funsters

@ntnsndr I think that's a great idea. Students tend to like these things, especially if they're low friction.

@tk Let me check with my Lawyer Arnold T Pants

I really hate SM generally, but on a really shit day I have to say the Fedi has been great.

I would add to what @GossiTheDog said about some professional responses to what happened today. "De-enterprising" is not a useful or helpful sentiment. Many of us simply do not live in that world. There are many reasons from insurance to legal liability that obligate proprietary solutions. It's not ideal, but neither is the world generally. Windows is a professional reality, so is EPDR. They're not going anywhere, we just have to learn what we can.

@GossiTheDog It's been a day Kevin

@corruptian @kaia It was also the week I started to feel the affects of the cancer I would be diagnosed with, so it is an intensely negative memory, the whole thing.

@corruptian @kaia It is the strangest place I have ever visited in my life. I was there for an AWS thing which made it even weirder.

Days like this I have ideas about just buying a boat

@shortridge Their updater does it all, it pulls changes automatically outside of the OS methods. They broke it and fixed the update very quickly, but alas the damage was done on many machines as it is such a low level tool

@shortridge I have to say I did not know they were so widespread

There is another quite insidious side to things like #Crowdstrike. Faith in their effectiveness tends to lead to complacency. We've already seen one example of this.

@corruptian @kaia It's a theme park for adults

I think the Crowdstrike CEO would like to help, but he's totally like driving his racing car this weekend so too bad
