Here’s me believing a single fucking thing Micro$oft says

so Delta's non-Windows machines were the ones that suffered the most from a Windows software malfunction? that makes sense

It didn’t say “non-windows” it said “served by other providers like IBM”. It could easily be Windows servers in IBM’s cloud and wouldn’t ya’ know…IBM uses Crowdstrike.

i'm gonna level with you, i completely forgot IBM cloud was a thing and just thought this was MS pointing fingers at system Z or system . thanks for catching that!

Having to reset or recalibrate other old systems that were disrupted by newer ones going offline makes sense to me. If servers were providing Network Time Protocol and older clients drifted without it, that could cause them to be unable to rejoin a domain. I’m speculating wildly, but it’s an example of how losing important infra can cause issues even after it’s restored.

That’s strange. Southwest Airline’s ancient IT actually saved them from crowdstrike.

Ta-da and chime noises

I hope they still have Skifree on them.

Debunked.

Ironically it debunks it by saying, yes, Southwest has key scheduling applications running on 3.1 and 95.

Omg its so hard to reboot into safemode delete one bad file and then reboot again. SO HARD guys. So lets run windows 3.1 and windows 95 and deploy old crusty windows 2008 servers again till this vlows over. /s

I’m in IT for a living. Even my dimmest bulbs at my company were able to solve this and keep the same pc running, minus crowdstrike’s bad update. I struggle to imagine what it must be like for other companies IT staff to make the choices they did during this.

Complexity increases exponentially in large organizations, for a number of reasons.

The letter said that after one Microsoft outreach on July 22, a “Delta employee replied, saying ‘all good. Cool will let you know and thank you.’ Despite this assessment that things were ‘all good,’ public reports indicate that Delta canceled more than 1,100 flights on July 22 and more than 500 flights on July 23.”
