Are you developing your opinions based on vibes or have you actually audited their software yourself (you are free to do so both client and federation server code)?
If you audited it, have you produced an actual report with metrics and points of reference for your data points?
I would pay money to keep Firefox foss for other people who can’t afford to do so.
She’s not wrong though
Catch me up on the drama please?
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.
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.
I have contact with someone trying to float the idea because she doesn’t understand tech.
To her, it’s because it’s the biggest IT outage ever and it happened 6 days after the failure to assassinate Trump.
Wasn’t the failed assassin a registered Republican?

Bruh.
Anon didn’t read the books.
Samwise goes to the undying lands after having a family, watching them become adults and a stint as the mayor of hobbiton.
Heeey I am also a libertarian, I just tend towards left libertarian. Back to the point of discussion, I find it difficult to ha e a meaningful conversation with the tankies or in general anyone from lemmy.ml . The discussions tend to lack any real data and feel entirely vibe based OR it’s apologist bullshit for Russia.
Like it’s cool if you like communism and have a philosophy based around why you think it’ll help humanity. I can politely disagree but still listen and discuss. It’s quite another to just be a complete dipshit and say “Ukraine had the invasion coming” (actual quote I’ve seen).
