Bricked? Yup, seems like a big pile of useless stuff out there? I’ve warned folks of every sort clear back to the 60’s, do not bet your life, your bizness, or anything else of value on systems that can be accessed by anyone else. If the old 80 hole punch cards help your bizness, go ahead and use them. If a big roll of paper tape helps your book keeper, fine, use it. Utilities were among he first to get lazyass by making their grids controllable from someplace else.
And airlines? You go ahead Mr. Genius, show us how your whole system can turn to krap because a geek in some back room skipped a neuron. Slow learning dumbasses will yet do us in. My own shop has some of the neatest machinery anyplace, anywhere, but it will not skip a beat over this mess since it has zero connections to any outside anything. And if I need to fly, my plane will start and go wherever I point it without waiting in line at an electric ticket counter.
It’s impossible to know ... but we may getting very close to the bullseye :)
my impression is ... somebody just shut the backdoor.
Does anyone have the list of the kind-good deeds President Trump has done? I have read it before but I can’t find it now.
There are other websites one can use VIN or tag number to get vehicle history. Am not sure if they would include government vehicles. Since there are public auctions that sell used government vehicles they might.
They are used for people looking for used car history but may give vehicle history, such as purchase/sell history, accidents, crime, et al.
Here are some:

That’s my situation. I have a work laptop (why, I don’t know, but I have it). Anyway, if I fire it up, odds are that the errant update will have been installed. But maybe not - the computer has been off - actually shut down - for 2 days so the update might not have come.
And I got a whole drawer full of files in the tool cabinet, including one my dad didn’t like. He always called it the flat bastard. Heh heh
And yes, that IS what that type is called.
It just dawned on me as to why that fib guy was hosing off that roof. It was to make it slippery so the SS wouldn’t put anybody up there.
I couldn’t hold off any longer. Fired up the work computer and it seems Ok.
Worst case scenario, it would have been bricked and I’d have to turn it in to IT. I don’t need it for my job, and I can’t do anything of great significance on it anyway.
On Telegram, convo of Crowdstrike dark out as possible cover for election interference.
May have angled for US election machines.
Just sayin’.

Crowdstrike is some bad player: Hillary campaign, Trump spying, impeachment, Pelosi.
Here’s from 2020 on FR:

“Around a billion computers are bricked worldwide, mostly corporate ones.”
Not sure I buy this statement. “Bricked”, to me, implies that the computer is dead and inrecoverable. Not an IT guy, so that may not be true.
I read something, somewhere this morning (sorry, no link) where this was caused by a failed software update at Crowdstrike. This is what caused the blue screen of death on so many computers that use Windows 365 - Microsoft’s cloud-based software (plus anything else running off of Crowdstrike.
Windows 365 is what MS pushes so they have full access to everything on your computer, and many corporations use the enterprise version so they don’t have to buy individual licenses for each computer. Just one of the many reasons not to run your software out of the cloud.
Failed SW updates do happen, but that does not preclude hanky-panky. The solution should be to roll back to the previous version and restart. If that’s not working, I can’t be of any more help to them (obviously).
“Crowdstrike today, all we know is that they are at the epicenter of the ongoing shadow war.”
And Julian sits in Oz..smiling.
So on July 9, 2024, Trump warns Zuckerberg not to engage in election fraud with Zuckerbucks:
Then yesterday Zuckerberg gave an interview wherein he said he got involved in the prior election but he won't be doing so for the 2024 election. Note that Zuckerberg's decision was announced after the unsuccessful assassination attempt on Trump.
https://x.com/DC_Draino/status/1814340606312759606
Daily news article indicates date of Zuckerber interview was yesterday.
(Every news agency in the search results I checked have been reporting Zuckerberg's statements within the last 10 hours today.)
How respectful of Zuckerberg not to make this announcement the evening of July 13th. /s
If President Trump had been killed, I'm sure Zuckerberg's plans would have been different.
How must this 'cut' to their 2024 election fraud budget shock the DNC! No Zuckerbucks???!!!!! Pelosi must be drunk by now. Clintons were recently photographed 'cheerfully' flying first class with the proles recently - they'll have laugh like hyenas while traveling by Uber if this keeps up!
