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…

THE WORMS
Surely Dracula doesn’t use windows.
I work in a datacenter, but no Windows. I slept so well.
Though a couple years back some ransomware that also impacted Linux ran through, but I got to sleep well because it only bit people with easily guessed root passwords. It bit a lot of other departments at the company though.
This time even the Windows folks were spared, because CrowdStrike wasn’t the solution they infested themselves with (they use other providers, who I fully expect to screw up the same way one day).
