You could be right. I just saw a news report saying it was a DDOS, but I was just paged out of sleep.

Thousands of Windows machines are experiencing a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) issue at boot today, impacting banks, airlines, TV broadcasters, supermarkets, and many more businesses worldwide. A faulty update from cybersecurity provider CrowdStrike is knocking affected PCs and servers offline, forcing them into a recovery boot loop so machines can’t start properly. CrowdStrike is widely used by many businesses worldwide for managing the security of Windows PCs and servers.

[experiencing a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD)]

Oh, like Biden reading from a teleprompter or trying to figure out which way to exit the stage? Probably a software update on an old T-600 series - rubber skin.....

If Azure or AWS use Crowdstrike, that sure sounds like a single point of failure to me. You would think if they bricked systems with Crowdstrike in some way, they wouldn’t (or shouldn’t) have done them all at once in key areas.

Our problems were not Crowdstrike itself, but issues with cloud-based authentication and such.

One more - already happening in China - December of 2023

This is ALREADY HAPPENING (December, 2023) - I say it will come to much of the world - BEFORE the Mark of the Beast - COVID-19(84)-style tyranny will make it difficult to even buy food

This woman had a gift card - it would not even let her use her GIFT CARD without FACIAL RECOGNITION


The Mark of the Beast WILL happen.

Very few understand what is coming to this planet.

Probably including this poor woman - who has already experienced the tyranny (in China)

This is December, 2023 - This (and far, far worse) will come to the whole world

China...No Digital ID...Can’t buy food!

My wife and I are both working on Windows-based laptops. But we’re not part of any infrastructury thingy, and they haven’t touched us. My phone, on the other hand, has given me nothing but grief for a couple of years already. So it sucks no matter what.

my computer this morning said it canceled the update

It seems to have been a “java” thing.
