CrowdStrike effectively bricked windows, Mac and Linux today.

Windows machines won’t boot, and Mac and Linux work is abandoned because all their users are on twitter making memes.

Incredible work.

    Probably would have been worse if this was on Linux. That’s like 90% of the internet.

      I’m sure the three people that use Linux and Crowdstrike together would have been very upset. 🤣

      Yes and no. Linux is inherently more diverse. All the different distros doing things in different ways, sometimes with different components. It’s not as much of a monoculture as Windows. There isn’t a Linux that 90% is.
