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…

    I need to run windows software that makes other windows software, that will be run on our customers (who pay us quite well) PCs that also run windows.

    Mingw, but whatever. Maybe there is somethong mingw can’t do.

    Plus gaming. I’m not switching my primary box to Linux at any point.

    Unless it is Apex and some other worst offenders or you use GPU from the only company actively hostile to linux, gaming is fine.
