And yet I heard zero peeps about it. Probably because 99% of IT departments know windows is vulnerable as fuck while 99% know that Linux doesn’t need babysitting.
“It’s technically possible for other OSes to be affected by a thing like this” is a shit argument and you should get the MS dick out of your mouth.
Bruh, I’ve used Linux for over 10 years. I run Arch on my laptop and have a homelab powered by Proxmox, Debian, and OPNSense. I don’t run any AV in my lab but do follow other security practices.
At work it’s a different story. Products like CrowdStrike also collect logs, scan for vulnerabilities, provide graphing and dashboarding capabilities, provide integrations into ticketing platforms for investigation and remediation by security teams, and more. AV is often required because Windows users can upload infected files to Linux-run SMB shares. Products like CrowdStrike often satisfy requirements set by cybersecurity insurance.
This is not simping, this is not Linux vs Windows. You just clearly have no experience in the enterprise Linux space and business security requirements.
I don’t need to argue about windows vs Linux. You’re overcomplicating and misinterpreting my point and it’s no longer worth it to me because you clearly are prioritizing defense
Edit: let’s see if we can get to 100 downvotes here. I mean this shit is just so offensive right?
I think people are missing the point here. The biggest problem was not that the update was bricking the machines, that could’ve happened to Linux/macOS/BSD etc. The problem is that the solution to the problem is to MANUALLY access the machine, get into safe mode and type some commands. This is insane. And you should be able to EASILY disable automatic updates for apps like that on Windows Server.
I dunno, I’d say them deploying an update that bricked machines at the scale they did shows they didn’t test it very well at smaller scales. They could have even still used their users as beta testers, just needed to do a subset of them first.
Nobody but the most hardcore AMD enthusiasts used Bulldozer. The 2010s was a tough decade for AMD, to say the least. It wasn’t until AM5 came out that I finally switched back to Team Red. Got too used to LGA sockets.
For confused folks, no this is not how Canadians package their peanut butter, although yes the milk bags are real, IIRC this is actually a thing that happens in the Carribbean for locally packaged peanut butter because it’s cheaper than the jars are in the US and Canada.
That spreadable Kerrygold is just unnecessary. Especially if it’s warm out. Whatever they’ve done to it it must just be worse than the regular Kerrygold.
I like how it abruptly switches from bible verses to various legal texts, all presented with no excerpts or citations. Is the entire book meant to serve as evidence?
Oh, this is handy, I specifically avoid these guys.
Not for ethical reasons or anything, just I had these weird frozen meatballs from them when I was like 7 and nearly vomited myself to death in a holiday caravan’s bedroom before collapsing unable to move for an hour, conscious the entire time and simply unable to make my body respond. 1/10, not reccommended.
Just looked it up because I too was unsure of this. There is a Wall’s meats, but they are no longer related. Unilever owns Wall’s ice cream but they sold off Wall’s meats in 1994. The logos are different and the meats one only operates in the UK. So this map is useless for avoiding dodgy meatballs.
Actually it’s worse than nothing. Youtube promotes comments based on engagement, so while only an upvote increases the tally, voting at all still makes it more visible.
I just glazed past it and saw Europe and UK several times in there. That shit doesn’t have anything to do with America so I don’t know what’s going on here. I mean the Bible nonsense I get, but that’s standard issue crazy.
