Very careless for a software developer to do this. Completely unexpected with all of the validation steps that must happen before a new release.
Then again.... most of the media are talking about the crash instead of Trump's speech last night.
Conspiracy Theory? Crazy?
all my conspiracy theories have come true. so I need a new one.
(of course it was intentional)
CrowdStrike were also the ones who investigated & claimed the 2016 DNC email hack was from Russia to quell the Seth Rich theory
All planned. Conspiracy FACT. Affects banks, hospitals. 911 in NH down.
Purportedly, the fix for the PC/crowdstrike BSOD is to reboot in safe mode and delete a specified crowdsrike file.
The fake news wouldn’t have said anything good about his speech anyway, so I doubt that’s it.
Maybe a dry run for crashing the election software
I work in cybersecurity. This sort of thing doesn’t happen. Quality control is critical in devops, because what you’re seeing happen right now is exactly what happens if you don’t test.
The fact that this happened is validation of Hanlon’s Razor, but which is it? Malice or incompetence?
My conspiracy is that they want to usher in the digital dollar. With each crash, they install a step or two towards that.
From Wiki:
CrowdStrike
American cybersecurity technology company, responsible for many Blue Screens of Deaths on July 19, 2024
LOL!....................
An expression I’ve long employed is “you can’t be THAT bad by accident.”
What good fortune for the Democrats coming at a time they desperately needed the news cycle to change.
I was paged several times yesterday evening and have been up since 4AM when I got paged again. This sucks. Hospital. We are functional now, but a lot of workstations in and out of our control not functioning.
Validation steps? New release? Things don’t really work like that anymore. The modern world is constant updates, generally weekly or biweekly. And all it takes is for one thing to have a hardcoded path that’s accurate on the staging system but not in production and the whole things poops the bed.

Ray Charles could have seen this
After all--you can't hack a computer you can't boot.
WELL....Crooks THREE FOREIGN ENCRYPTED ACCOUNTS....and guess what.....THEY ARE IN THE CLOUD!!!! hmmmmmmmm
Maybe this is Crowdstrike’s first DEI release. ;-)
“ Conspiracy Theory? Crazy?”
Stuff just happens .
Not everything is a conspiracy. Hard not to go down that route, but we will be in padded cells if we think everything else.
Just got my internet back this morning after a tornado came through here on Tuesday. Power was down for 24 hours which wasn’t such a big deal (more worried about the food in my freezer), but I couldn’t keep up with anything on my shitful iPhone that had only 2 bars all week. To come back online, and find this news just made my weekend. It was worth the wait.
This might explain why I can’t get into my health insurance provider’s web site today.
I haven’t seen the blue screen of death since I got rid of Windows 2000 or Windows millennium I forget the name. What up POS that was.
