Things are going to be great next year if Orange Man is in charge and being set up to take the fall.
A major cyber outage has grounded flights and disrupted businesses and media organizations throughout the world.
The technology glitch caused chaos on Friday morning with Delta Air Lines, American Airlines and United Airlines issuing statements saying that their flight operations had been impacted. Emergency response systems were down at police agencies and healthcare providers in Phoenix, Arizona, forcing some police and ambulance providers to dispatch cars manually, per The Arizona Republic.
Banks and financial services firms from Australia to India and Germany warned customers of disruptions.
In Britain, booking systems used by doctors were offline, multiple reports from medical officials on X said, while Sky News, one of the country’s major news broadcasters was off air, apologizing for being unable to transmit live, and soccer club Manchester United said on X that it had to postpone a scheduled release of tickets.
The technology glitch was caused by a faulty update from CrowdStrike, a U.S. cybersecurity technology company based in Texas, in a single content update for Windows hosts.
It resulted in Windows computers and tablets crashing and displaying a blue screen, known informally as the “Blue Screen of Death.” Over half of Fortune 500 companies use CrowdStrike software, the firm said in a promotional video this year.

Well that seems like nothing to worry about. Imagine this but lasting longer and more widespread. You can’t call 911, your bank card doesn’t work or worse yet the SNAP/EBT food stamp cards stop working and Laquisha can’t buy lobster for the cook-out celebrating her baby getting out of jail. All of your medical records are online, it would be awesome if a hospital or your doctor can’t access that stuff. Or if air traffic control systems puke while planes are in the air. Remember, you will always be your own first responder but what happens if there isn’t a second responder?
You are getting ample warning and examples. Don’t blink.
Seems it’s knocking about all the MS systems offline. I don’t know about other states, but Somalisota uses MS 360 exclusively, so about all state agencies are bricked.
One early update was it should be fixed by Monday.
A little early in the year for bank holidays and October surprises, Hanlon and Occum have the traditional response, but I’m loving this “Lenin Week” immensely!
What a time to be alive! I’ve been giggling like a retard for almost the whole week…
Minnesotans finally winning again:>
Most people won’t do anything until they are affected personally by whatever happens… Still get a kick out of a guy on Gab complaining about being out of power for too long and he had no backup…I don’t understand how you can be a dissident and then complain when the system fails…
If I can’t call 9-1-1…neither can they.
😀 Things are looking up!
An idea whose time ha come
Trial run? When they crash everything during the uniparty/Zionist coup the communications grid will be included. Total confusion and panic on a scale never seen before will create ultra-compliant sheep begging for some semblance of ‘normalcy’. Beware the sheep!!
There goes the arguments for CBDC.
Hope the utilities are running on Linux.
Lol they aren’t…
Heh, yeah. I keep telling people close to me that competence (and the systems that are reliant on it) is going – soon to be gone – and is being backfilled with DIE and financialized scams. Nobody gives a shit, so we are fucked, and will be lucky even to hang onto indoor plumbing. In 100 years, assuming any humans survive what’s coming, they will talk of magic machines and devices that lit up and delivered sights and sounds through the air. It will be considered mythical wizardry by the future inhabitants of Earth, who will be back to doing everything the hard way.
And maybe that’s for the best. Where we’ve ended up with high technology certainly isn’t worth a pinch of coon shit.
Yea pretty sad that you can warn people time after time but like I said until the lights go out people will keep being inactive…
Should be a wakeup call for IT managers everywhere. How many will get the message and do something about it?
How many? I’m going with…zero. Remember, this is clown world. Decisions don’t get made on logic or effectiveness of a particular solution.
Overly Complex Systems, built and Run by White Men, who are steadily being Driven Out and Replaced by mud-race creatures that are Biologically and Intellectually Incapable of Operating and Maintaining what White Men Created.
What could Possibly go Wrong?
Yes, this. Preps re-checked and augmented, bride and kids updated, popcorn re-stocked.
Blame and then bomb, bomb, bomb, Iran?
It could be homegrown commie RAT POS vermin under order from the CPUSA?
Batthouse Barry wants Leave the World Behind for the nation that he hates and promises to destroy by any means necessary.
He did launch his “career” in the family living room of comrade kommissar Billy Ayers (CPUSA) of Weather Underground infamy.
Blaming Orange Man Badass is almost too predictable at this point.
Breaking-No Room For Commie.
Got a bud who wanted to catch a flight from Ohio to SC today. Apps and online were hunky dory until they got to the airport and the flight was cancelled.
I have a few trips coming up in the next few months. Think I’ll take the truck along with some of the tools I’ve acquired instead of flying.
I’m just getting some weird vibes. I can’t put my finger on all of it.
“Weird vibes…” Check the background on CrowdStrike which apparently caused today’s computer fiasco:

Yeah, I recall CrowdStrike’s antics and deep state games.
Musk just dumped CS from Tesla, SpaceX and the rest of his companies from their systems. Not that I totally trust E Musk, but he acts like an adult and has bills to pay.
Ask yourself if CrowdStrike–a cybersecurity tech company–would ever admit to being professionally hacked?
Or, were they beta testing for “the big one?”
Big Country Expat on Crowdstrike and yesterday’s chaos.
