One of em may have decided to “turn out the lights” on the way out.....LOL
All out of leftist spite of course.....LOL

Why, in heaven's name would anybody be dumb enough to sole-source the world's Internet cyber-security from a company in an active war zone?

I wonder if this is an admission by MS that their DEI team is directly responsible in whole or part for Windows being affected by the CrowdStrike outage?

[RoosterRedux]

The MS DEI team got a Blue Screen of Death notice.

Perhaps they finally realized that they should hire people who are professional, proficient and highly intelligent rather than hire people who look good....................

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Sure, every big company finally is finally having the guts to fire its DEI department and all the DEI former employees won’t be able to find DEI jobs anymore, but Look at the bright side - they are paying $20 per hour at McDonalds these days.

Agenda 2030 is the true threat, not Project 2025.

Here are some thoughts on what DEI really means.

D = Delusional
E = Exaggerated
I = Incompetence

““Hence the purposeful and strategic 3-5 year shelf life of many company’s inclusion commitments post the murder of George Floyd are being reevaluated.”

How’s it feel to have a shelf life, DEI suckers?

But, DEI people tend to be pretty ugly.

I should have added: ...on paper.....................

[MortMan]

Mr. Walsh, you are a moron for implying that the recent IT issues are Microsoft related.

[Indy Pendance]

The left’s world is falling apart. It’s a beautiful thing to witness.

“Perhaps they finally realized that they should hire people who are professional, proficient and highly intelligent rather than hire people who look good....................”

Nah. But nice dream. Microsoft just found a temporary convenient scapegoat and excuse to cut some costs from the recent outage. Losing customers, money, and consumer trust is expensive to the bottom line. They’ll be back hiring Didn’t Earn It morons in no time.

[Vaduz]

Microsoft finds out the hard way how dangerous quota counts cost DUH.

[Captainpaintball]

Now get rid of all the indians

[Cold Heart]

“...rather than hire people who look good.......”

Most DEI hires are hired because they don’t look good.
