The Hat FoxDespite the travel chaos on the trains thanks to the #Crowdsrike outage, I’venmanaged to make it to #London for Hyper Japan 2024!
Better late than never!
PipfordThis #Crowdsrike mess would never have happened if we, as a society, ran Linux, and by "ran Linux" I mean "never fully adopted agriculture and still lived as semi nomadic tribes on the mammoth steppe"

erstwhile@msdropbear42 `we` as in paid IT staff, don't 'do' this to other people, most of it is corporate management mindset/incompetence run riot.
That said, all you can do is support alternative options, and keep in mind that #Windows #EndUsers did not expect this and had it foisted upon them by #ITManagers that drank the #Microshaft coolaid.
I'd gladly reach out and help the user as they're the ones that need the support, however .. it's not 'their' PC that #Crowdsrike has borked, in this instance, but their service providers boxen.
Maybe next time a #Linux or #FOSS user reaches out offers those poor souls help, they'll listen more closely. We can only hope they understand, it's just different, not hard.

Just realized that my outfit today is sponsored by @crowdstrike. I'm wearing #Crowdsrike underwear, too, but you can only see those on my OnlyFans.
