losing my mind at the number of people who insist directly to me that the Crowdstrike thing must be a deliberate conspiracy by somebody. Is that literally impossible? No. Is there currently any actual reason at all to think it was a deliberate conspiracy and not just the oopsie of the century? No!!! oopsies happen, it is completely statistically unavoidable that they happen, and we've built a world where a single person's typo can take out half the airports and hospitals on earth!

edit: and I made a typo writing this post 😂 fixed

@0xabad1dea hanlon's razor applies

and if it were a grand conspiracy, you could have done much MUCH MUCH MUCH worse with a self-updating kernel driver than bluescreen a bunch of systems for lulz
