Trying to buy the 4x $39.99 black shirt lime bundle deal but my cart keeps changing from 4 qty to 1

[hot tartan]

Email support

[errant tusk]

I think that's not an error because you are ordering one Group of 4 shirts

[drowsy sun]

It doesn’t say 4 shirts though

Blank t-shirt
19.99 usd
Color black
Size large
Qty 1

Posted a pic in the merch chat

[hearty spear]

Or they don't have 4 left

[drowsy sun]

That’s what I thought

[scarlet quartz]

i lost a blueberry

[drowsy sun]

yall think the screw driver bundle is worth?

[wispy sand]

If you need a good driver then 100%!

[scarlet quartz]

cool sona

[wispy sand]

Especially if you’re a tech, I love a stubby driver!

[drowsy sun]

Yeah none of my screw drivers have magnetic tips

[wispy sand]

Thanks!

[scarlet quartz]

[wispy sand]

Then go for it if you have the money to spend!

[drowsy sun]

Think I’m gonna do it kinda sad I missed those black shirts

[wispy sand]

I wish they had the tall sizes for this sale! I love the quality just not the fit! Maybe get a grey one or two if you can mix and match?

[drowsy sun]

Does the bundle/savings apply to 4 shirts different colors? And how tall are you? I’m 6’2 might not get them if they aren’t tall fit

Oh for some reason I thought it was only black shirts

[wispy sand]

I’m 6’5 with a long torso so I’m kinda an odd ball case tbh

[wispy sand]

I think it’s for all colours and sizes

[gilded quest]

None of my screws at work are magnetic -.-

[hot tartan]

Damn, one of the best parts of a screwdriver, taken away from you

[vapid smelt]

ltt jacket is kinda mid

[drowsy sun]

All of our panels are aluminum which means I never get to use the magnet mount part of my flashlight

[drowsy sun]

Damn the screw driver bundle is basically only a $10 discount for US

[vapid smelt]

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004VJY1EC?ie the mega pro its based on is only $31 with free prime shipping

[olive saffron]

Megapro have noticeably less teeth on ratchet I'm pretty sure

Also it is a lot heavier because bit storage is 12x regular sized bits

Instead of half size bits

[olive saffron]

Also the ltt equivalent is megapro automotive not the regular with double sided tips

Megapro is still great, but ltt is better if you wanna spend that bit more

[vapid smelt]

if you want better get the pb swiss

[olive saffron]

Also if you are in Canada imo just get ltt

Because megapro is 70 bucks on amzn for whatever reason

[olive saffron]

Pb Swiss have high backdrag according to PF

Which can be deal breaker depends on situation

Also what mostly drags ltt driver down in PF ranking is slop in locked position, which I basically never find myself using

[vapid smelt]

the one that farm tested thats in the chart listed above is 31

[olive saffron]

The one in Amazon Canada is 70 bucks

[vapid smelt]

oh fake money

[olive saffron]

It was 54 last year

Which imo it's a good buy compared to ltt, but now, I just bought bundle because it's not enough save for the performance diff

[vapid smelt]

i got that high end no cry

[pliant steppe]

Who thinks i could be successful with pc flipping

[pliant steppe]

“A man is only as long as the screwdriver he uses”

🗿

[pliant steppe]

Damn

Thats..

Kinda long man

[vapid smelt]

yeah thats what your older sister said to me when i showed her it

[pliant steppe]

Nah bro thats crazy

Shes under 18 so thats pedophelia

Ur cooked

[pliant steppe]

Hes speechless

[nocturne turret]

Hey guys is this a usb 2.0 ?idk what a f panel

[pliant steppe]

Thats the thing that plugs into the power connector things i think

[nocturne turret]

should i just plug it into a usb 2.0 header

[pliant steppe]

Just look for a thing that says f panel on the bottom right of the mobo

[vapid smelt]

https://youtu.be/nu6C2KL_S9o?t=43

[nocturne turret]

oh ok so i guess i plug into 2.0 header

[pliant steppe]

Should look like this

[nocturne turret]

oh yea i dont see that on this mobo

[pliant steppe]

Its gotta be there

I think both my sisters are actually 18 now so ur good

Idk tho ive never met them

[pliant steppe]

Panel-15

Bottom right

[nocturne turret]

Hmm ok

[pliant steppe]

Its basically for the usb’s and power button so ur gonna need it lol

[vapid smelt]

cant blame them

[pliant steppe]

Whats that supposed to mean

[hot lichen]

euuuhehuueheuuheheuehh hey guys

[pliant steppe]

My dad left them to get the milk when they were like 4

And then i happened

[vapid smelt]

what type of milk

[pliant steppe]

5%

[river echo]

Like, was the milk 5% real milk, or was it only 5% of hte bottle

[merry hound]

Are they no longer making other colors of water bottles I really wanted blueberry pie during the last black Friday sale

[graceful burrow]

not for the usbs at all

frontpanel handles activity and power led's as well as power and reset buttons

[vapid smelt]

nice plushie you made of yourself

[pliant steppe]

Are there not usb’s on the front panel of the case?

[nocturne turret]

Should i do a push pull on my aio ? I got 3 extra fans i dont use

[graceful burrow]

yes
but they're not handled by the fpanel header, there's zero usb connectivity in that cbale

[graceful burrow]

ive never really heard of that making any difference but ig you could

[pliant steppe]

Then how do the case usbs connect?

[graceful burrow]

usb 2 header

[vapid smelt]

wifi

[harsh quartz]

Internally it should be IR instead of Wi-Fi

[nocturne turret]

This is the last thing on the case idk where it goes

Idk the name or what it does

[gusty olive]

sata power

[vapid smelt]

thats sam the sata power connector

[nocturne turret]

Oh ok i dont need that then

[graceful burrow]

where does this plug into

[gusty olive]

It looks like it's to power a fan or something because that's the receiving end

[cosmic copper]

interesting. i didnt know that was a thing lol
i mean i guess get power from wherever theres power, but still interesting 😄

[gusty olive]

There's some fans that just plug straight into the power lol

Usually old school tho

[nocturne turret]

Im not sure its connected to the case

[cosmic copper]

i had some molex fans a while ago

[nocturne turret]

I am almost done

[gusty olive]

It needs power then for something. Maybe RGB

[nocturne turret]

The manual dont say anything about that nor the video when he connected all the plugs he didn’t include that in the video so im not sure

[gusty olive]

Weird

[graceful burrow]

likely rgb then

[gusty olive]

Can you follow where the wires go to lol

[graceful burrow]

probably a power distribution board

[nocturne turret]

Oh it says sata on the cable

[gusty olive]

Yeah cause it's sata power connector

[graceful burrow]

that's what people said lol

[gusty olive]

Does the case have an external sata on the outside or something

[graceful burrow]

like i said it's probably for leds lol

[gusty olive]

Probably. Cheap cases just slap in those kind lol

I had a case that had a 200mm RGB fan on the side and it had pins that automatically connect when you close the side panel

[nocturne turret]

its a lian li

[craggy rose]

Something about the symmetrical nature of them, idk

[pliant steppe]

Yeah they r pretty weird

[pliant steppe]

And kind of bad for the price idk why people buy them

Wow

[vapid smelt]

yeah you would want lower CL like 28*

[craggy rose]

🫠

[pliant steppe]

Thats why earlier i said “you know they’re rich when they have 4 sticks of corsair ram” 😂

[manic torrent]

I must be rich then

[pliant steppe]

Those arent even the expensive ones either

[manic torrent]

I have four sticks of 3600CL14 corsair RGB DDR4

[pliant steppe]

Lol

If ddr4 ram has lower cl does that mean its faster? 🤔

[vapid smelt]

cl16

[manic torrent]

yes, CL is Latency in clock cycles, lower = fasterer

[pliant steppe]

I have ddr5 CL30 6000mhz klevv ram

[manic torrent]

3200CL16 is the same speed more or less as 3600CL18 for DDR4

[nocturne turret]

I bought those ram for like $80

32gb 5600

[pliant steppe]

When each stick is 8gb ☠️

Nah but you bought 2 right?

[nocturne turret]

Last question

So i forgot to put these washers on the aio cooler before putting the bolt on will this cause any issues? Should i take it off and put the washers on then put it back

Also will i have to reapply thermal paste it was already pre installed

@pliant steppe wya

It has only happened once so far

[vapid smelt]

read the blue screen code it gave you

[vapid smelt]

I think it was this one

It gave me a blue screen loaded quickly then restarted

[vapid smelt]

the code is in here

If it happens again take note of the error code

Okay

Is there anything I need to worry about tho?

is it a work laptop?

because crowdstrike just crashed half the world, literally

after an azure outage this morning

[frozen oasis]

can i put soda in a watercooled pc

[vapid smelt]

i mean you can put any liquid in it

[frozen oasis]

so hydrofluoric acid would work?

I mean, for various values of work, sure

A novice was trying to fix a broken Lisp machine by turning the power off and on.

Knight, seeing what the student was doing, spoke sternly: “You cannot fix a machine by just power-cycling it with no understanding of what is going wrong.”

Knight turned the machine off and on.

The machine worked.

[graceful elbow]

nothing much you can do... huge global outage - all windows machines running crowdstrike were affected pretty much at the same time

mostly corp stuff like work laptops... but also things like shop POS

[manic torrent]

.... and servers

[grim belfry]

Should've just been using Azure Virtual Desktop smh

[graceful elbow]

I didn't realise MS had any worthwhile windows server products? (I'm not in the enterprise IT world...)

[grim belfry]

That suggestion was sarcastic because lots of Azure is down atm, and being on Azure Virtual Desktop would've just made people's lives harder

And yes Microsoft has many compelling enterprise products

[graceful elbow]

oh yeah definitely... I just thought a lot of it ran on linux

[smoky badge]

You need to riz up the computer

[dull ravine]

RTX 2060 + i5-11400F vs RTX 4060 + Ryzen 5 2600X?

[smoky badge]

No

[thick scarab]

What should I clean my laptop screen with?

[smoky badge]

Google

[thick scarab]

I have some fingerprint marks that a microfibre can’t get out

[thick scarab]

Some say distilled water, others say alcohol, and others say regular water

[graceful elbow]

fingerprint is oil and gunk

so something with a little bit of soap... emphasis on a little bit. I just use window cleaner, but YMMV if there's some funky coating on the screen.

window cleaner is gentle soap + alcohol (to get rid of the streaks)

Now impacting the critical infrastructure.

Not sure if any where outside south east asia is having the same issue.

Everywhere

took our whole business offline, and many others

pretty much game over once you're in the BSOD before login screen loop

it's worldwide. EVERYONE with cloudstrike

you can login to recovery console, rename cloudstrike to cloudstrike_fucked and it works

but... scale that up to hundreds of thousands or millions......

which.... many places will 🙂

[gaunt swallow]

yep 🙃

I guess the good thing about our work is that we keep zero files on our laptops, so we can just swap out for good ones on Monday

So much for no commits on Friday

BSOD as a Service (BaaS)

[grim belfry]

Lmao

[misty inlet]

my local pizza shop cant process orders and closed early, this is horrible

[grim belfry]

My condolences

[dry musk]

Is a person pc onyl affected when you get hit with the blue screen?

[grim belfry]

Is it your personal machine?

[wispy marsh]

When you install crowdstrike

[dry musk]

A bit of both really

[grim belfry]

Does it have security software from your IT department/MSP?

You're almost certainly not affected if it doesn't

[dry musk]

I'm assuming you're about to give me some wonderful news after I say yes

[grim belfry]

Lmao

[dry musk]

Lovely

[grim belfry]

However, if you are affected you (may) be able to fix it!

[dry musk]

Oo-la-la, many appreciations

[grim belfry]

It probably won't work for you, but it's worth a shot

I'm sure some middle management rushed a patch out to meet a kpi or something

[full fossil]

So is it confirmed Crowdstrike issue or something else that cause the issue?

[grim belfry]

Crowdstrike

However Azure is also partially down

[full fossil]

Nobody respect the "No commit on Friday" rule lol

[full fossil]

I wonder if it is combination of several issues that cause the bsod. We couldn't reach all Microsoft services at one point. We thought someone pull the plug to save the unaffected pcs lol.

Yummy EV

[vernal holly]

Diagnostic reader?

[polar fern]

It’s a plug-in hybrid, but it’s driven almost exclusively in EV mode

[full fossil]

Dang

[vernal holly]

Ope nvm I am dumb

[grim belfry]

Yucky North American plug

[polar fern]

It’s a level one charger for a Crosstrek plug-in hybrid

[grim belfry]

New?

[polar fern]

No, they don’t actually have a 2024 model

[vernal holly]

120 volt 20 amp die like men

[grim belfry]

Strange

[polar fern]

It does seem like they are coming out in 2026 with a pretty strong EV and hybrid lineup though

[grim belfry]

Nah ya'll barely even have RCD so I'm fine

[polar fern]

So the funniest part about my girlfriend owning that car

[vernal holly]

Cali is supposed to be only ev pretty soon yeah

[polar fern]

They did not sell them here in Pennsylvania

It was originally purchased in New Jersey

[vernal holly]

Meh again die like men

[polar fern]

So next month, I am taking it about 45 minutes away to a dealer in New Jersey that actually services these hybrids

[grim belfry]

I'd rather not die :)

[vernal holly]

Do you really think the most dangerous thing in America is our outlets? One of our presidential candidates dodged a bullet last week

[polar fern]

Only about 6000 of these plug in crosstreks were sold between the 2019 and 2023 model year.

[grim belfry]

Ew politics

[polar fern]

😎

[full fossil]

What are y'all talking about?

[polar fern]

Stuff n junk

[full fossil]

Please don't bring your American politics into this

[full fossil]

I like junk-ish

[vernal holly]

I hate politics I was just sayin man

[full fossil]

Oh

[pallid falcon]

Anyone here play dnd

[vernal holly]

[vernal holly]

[full fossil]

Nah word every time I say something factual (no offence to Americans love you guys) only American info is legit?

[vernal holly]

It’s really just people with money arguing

[grim belfry]

Oooh Kaseya is working again who would've thought

I have to be honest I never saw the appeal of that game or Zelda or Pokémon just… don’t know never interested me

[full fossil]

[grim belfry]

I feel sorry for Microsoft's PR team

[full fossil]

Okay Pokémon go is fire though

[polar fern]

I also grew up in a semi rural farm type area, where I was outside all day and came home in the afternoon for lunch and played some Mario on the Nintendo

[full fossil]

Don't leak private chats nerd

[vernal holly]

Damn brother he got you

[full fossil]

Ngl not a fan of any of Nintendo's franchises at all other than Pokémon, but every time I say it people hate me for some reason

[polar fern]

Recycling bin is a little bit overflowing. I should probably take care of that.

[full fossil]

Good Luck

[polar fern]

I was kind of into following (not playing) the Pokémon card game early on, but it’s just too much

[vernal holly]

Boys I am still on win 10… should I go to the …uhh windows fail edition for the better hdr?

[polar fern]

Like I’m sorry I don’t care about the stats or the hit points or any of that. It just doesn’t click with me at all.

I’m staying on windows 10 until the wheels fall off

[full fossil]

I just like da Pokémon

[vernal holly]

Satisfactory rn

[polar fern]

Well, that’s why we don’t just have one type of video game and such different people are interested in different things

[full fossil]

My guy just has the most random things ever stocked in his basement waiting to pull them out on gc at the right moment 😂

[grim belfry]

Ew

[golden talon]

I need a V8 in my life

[polar fern]

I recently learned that Apple has extended the AppleCare warranty from a set time to a monthly payment thing and since my standard AppleCare recently expired. I have moved to the monthly coverage, which I think will make a lot more sense since my battery is about to 💩

[smoky badge]

You need 2

[golden talon]

no just 1

[vernal holly]

I had this thought win 11 appears as a train wreck especially with recall

[golden talon]

2 V8s would drain my wallet from gas prices

[vapid smelt]

why not a v10

[grim belfry]

lmao

[golden talon]

this would also drain my wallet from gas prices

[midnight kelp]

whats crowdstrike mean

[smoky badge]

ugh

[grim belfry]

Business cybersecurity company

[golden talon]

i use a cli instance on the regular

and i FUCKING HATE IT

[vernal holly]

Why

?

[polar fern]

Most likely I’m going to be moving to mint.

[golden talon]

because macOS is the best operating system ill ever need

[pallid falcon]

The person with me sheets are offline I'm sad 😦

[vernal holly]

I literally just spit out my tea reading that

[golden talon]

No

[vernal holly]

Mac?? Really man?

[grim belfry]

It really is isn't it

[polar fern]

I think my thinkcentre will be mint, my new computer will stay on windows 10, and then I’ll have my Mac mini

[vernal holly]

For what?

[golden talon]

It does everything I need incredibly efficiency and it looks beautiful and highly secure

[smoky badge]

Vert likes MacOS

[grim belfry]

Such a great operating system

[golden talon]

so true

[polar fern]

Microsoft trying to market windows 11

[graceful elbow]

mac only good if you want to be good for Daddy Apple

[midnight kelp]

will it affect our systems

[golden talon]

windows only good if you want to be good for Daddy Microsoft

[polar fern]

Windows 10 be like

[golden talon]

linux only good if you want to be good for daddy Linus Torvalds

[grim belfry]

Honestly, not a horrible idea

Still not a good one

[vernal holly]

Not far off

[polar fern]

Those are prototypes, but they’re being marketed as finished products

[graceful elbow]

tell me you dont understand linux without telling me you dont understand linux 😛

[smoky badge]

freeBSD

[polar fern]

The red truck, however, is a finished product and is being used right now

[vernal holly]

That is my real pc

[vapid smelt]

wonder if they will still have the same problem has power lines falling down and breaking in storms

[golden talon]

Linux only good if you want to be good for daddy Richard Stallman

[thin nacelle]

Hi

[grim belfry]

What, like a Cybertruck?

[polar fern]

Absolutely not

These are electric powered tractor units

[vapid smelt]

cybertruck is better

[golden talon]

freeBSD only good if you fucking hate your existence

[polar fern]

You hook a trailer to them and then drive them down the road

[vernal holly]

No infrastructure tho

[grim belfry]

I'm not buying it unless the accelerator pedal gets stuck

[polar fern]

Infrastructure is currently being built in UK and the EU is not far behind

[thin nacelle]

💀

[smoky badge]

I hate my existence, so I’ll continue to use it

[polar fern]

I said this from day one Elon Musk is a con artist and Tesla is a carbon credit trading company that masquerades as a vehicle manufacturer

[vapid smelt]

or* the wiper not working

[golden talon]

you're gonna pass on from this world all alone on that hill

[vernal holly]

Guys this is my real pc I really use… I built her myself mostly off of eBay

[smoky badge]

😭

[polar fern]

Even their falcon 9 rocket has a lot of room for improvement even though they think it’s best thing since sliced bread

[golden talon]

i built the ultimate scrapyard wars build with an $800 budget

[polar fern]

I should probably take the recycling out now before I fall asleep and I get mad at myself tomorrow

[grim belfry]

The pedal is non-negotiable, sorry

[vernal holly]

300

[golden talon]

i cant $300

[grim belfry]

Time to do some vacuuming

[golden talon]

i wanted to see what i could build for $800

[polar fern]

it’s a $100,000 small stick compensation machine that doesn’t work properly and can kill the operator and people around it

[vernal holly]

Ugh no

[polar fern]

Also, it rusts, even though it’s made out of stainless steel. It takes a special kind of stupid to accomplish that.

[golden talon]

ill gift nitro to whoever guesses my $800 pc specs ez

Yummy embeds

[golden talon]

the cybertruck kinda looks sick though

[vapid smelt]

i love the taste of them

[golden talon]

if i wasnt such a BMW fanboy i'd buy a tesla

[grim belfry]

They're soooo tasty

[polar fern]

The cyber truck is a hazard even just sitting there because it has sharp angles and panels that can actually cut you

[grim belfry]

A BMW will always beat a Tesla

[golden talon]

[golden talon]

noooo bmw is reliable rn

[grim belfry]

Tell my x1 that

Slap a solar panel on top

[vapid smelt]

mr money bags buying new bmws

[golden talon]

old x1

?

[grim belfry]

2018

[golden talon]

because BMW is so reliable right now that even toyota is using BMW engines

[polar fern]

Imagine going to an auto detailing place to get your vinyl decals and they discover that your big shot Tesla has doors that are two different lengths

[grim belfry]

Honestly it's been fine

[vernal holly]

GMC

[golden talon]

BMW beating honda

makes sense though cuz hondas been having a shit ton of recall issues lately

[vapid smelt]

or its has some small light dust and they wrap over it trapping it on the panel

[golden talon]

porsche would prolly be where audi is

[grim belfry]

Oh so I need a 2024 BMW for it to be reliable? lol

[vernal holly]

Fix Or Repair Daily

Ford

[golden talon]

2020 is the new G chassis arch

[grim belfry]

I drive an x1 like a soccer mum I have no idea what that means

[golden talon]

my mom had a porsche and it was okay

[vernal holly]

Cough cough

[vapid smelt]

thats still in warranty we need to wait a bit longer to see how reliable it really is

[golden talon]

well the fact that toyota is using it is already a great sign

[grim belfry]

Smh buy the extended warranty

[golden talon]

The supra is a BMW chassis

[vapid smelt]

[golden talon]

[grim belfry]

For sure

[grim belfry]

They do need to get better quality audio though

[vernal holly]

Yeah

[golden talon]

its kinda crazy what year we're on and we still have such shitty audio call quality

[grim belfry]

Here I always have really good quality

[golden talon]

calling over 5G still sounds like ass sometimes

[vernal holly]

I don’t mean to be rude but… as impressive as that is I can’t see how it is relevant to anything again not being rude

[golden talon]

out of curiosity what phone and whats your carrier

[vernal holly]

[grim belfry]

Do you guys do VoIP for calls or no

[vernal holly]

Meh the phones ain’t bad the computers are crap and the software is worse

[golden talon]

calling the computers crap is insane i'd argue theyre better than the phones lol

[vapid smelt]

here are my 3 guesses

[golden talon]

apple silicon has transformed the industry and lit a fire under qualcomm's ass

[vernal holly]

I am saying the phones ain’t bad because fucking everyone has one I don’t want EVERYONE to disagree but yeah the phones are horrid as well

[grim belfry]

Missed :(

[golden talon]

i think theyre great phones for being phones

but objectively apple silicon macbooks are world-class leading machines

[vapid smelt]

i was close

[vernal holly]

Yes but horrible for anything else or… being away from a wall

I despise skibidi, fuck that brainrot

[sick crescent]

Was it a bsod? Was shopping today and saw the cashiers computers on blue screen

[pallid falcon]

Yeah some security company botched update from what I understand

[rigid pawn]

I stopped using my other social media accounts, which basically are the three by Meta and Twitter, leaving just Discord lol.

[pallid falcon]

Only other one I'm active is X. I have reddit but mainly only need it when it's on googles results for some weird specific question

[grim belfry]

Indeed

[pallid falcon]

Ya weird homie

[pallid falcon]

Is their a known fix

[rigid pawn]

I don't consider reddit social media. I only have a reddit account so I can read some tech news when I get bored lol. (You don't need it for Google search results afaik)

[grim belfry]

Nothing that's going to be easy to mass deploy, and I doubt there will be

[pallid falcon]

Wonder I'd it'll be covered on tomorrow's techlinked

[grim belfry]

ew my deskphone just got updated

[pallid falcon]

Yea

[pallid falcon]

How

Also why do deskphines need a internet connection now.. hm

[grim belfry]

VOIP

[gusty olive]

[pallid falcon]

Oh I thought you meant a literal deskphone

[grim belfry]

I mean, it is

A literal desk phone

[tepid haven]

Nice

Probaby the one thing that'll we working now

It's not nice because it updated and it's different and I hate it

[frozen oasis]

[grim belfry]

Ironically, we did have to go to failover earlier today because of the azure outage

[tepid haven]

Oh no, I mean it's a deskphone how good can it be lol

[tepid haven]

Damn

[grim belfry]

Teams

[tepid haven]

Ah yes t e a m s

I take it back, id rather a deskphone XD

CrowdStrike is popular, lol

[quick fern]

Definitely

[manic torrent]

This is so easy to do at scale and with bitlocker

[tepid haven]

Ouch

[grim belfry]

Remotely?

[manic torrent]

.... Whether you consider it social media or not .... It is.

[manic torrent]

Yeah it's so easy, and then everything just restarts itself with no problems.

[rustic tundra]

what cpu to buy if my 14700k shits itself

[tepid haven]

Anything AMD lol

[grim belfry]

How would you do this for Glenda from accounting who works from home?

[tepid haven]

X3D for gamimg

Oh wait no intel mobo

[rigid pawn]

.... Whether you consider it social media or not .... It is not

[tepid haven]

rip

[grim belfry]

When*

[rustic tundra]

i could swap mobos

[tepid haven]

Yeaaa I'd say get AMD

If you're lucky you might be able to send it back but most likely youd need to sell it

[manic torrent]

Obviously you simply get her to enter the bazillion digit long key, having been told it over the phone! What could be easier?

[rustic tundra]

i dont think my silicon is bad

asrock bios says the quality is "80"

[summer folio]

Real, Intel was much quicker to implement hardware NSA backdoors

[winter adder]

is microsoft issue worldwide?

or just aus

[tepid haven]

Yup

UK is going crazy lol

[manic torrent]

It's not a Microsoft issue, and yes it's worldwide

[grim belfry]

Yeah exactly

[manic torrent]

Microsoft issue was this morning, this is a crowdstrike issue.

[winter adder]

news lie then

[grim belfry]

The SES disagrees

[manic torrent]

Shock, normies wrong about technical shit

[tepid haven]

People will assume lol

[manic torrent]

... Ok dude. Whatever helps you sleep at night. That's a lot of cope.

[tepid haven]

Seems to be microsoft and CrowdStrike together

[grim belfry]

So, there's no easy way mass deploy a fix, is there :)

[manic torrent]

No, Microsoft had an outage earlier, then crowdstrike absolutely pooched it

[tepid haven]

Oh really? damn

[rigid pawn]

Same to you 🙂

[manic torrent]

There are ways ... But it depends on very specific things pre existing and you would need to develop the fix. Tldr: yes, it's not easy.

[eager notch]

Poor Eli

[grim belfry]

Reddit makes me so mad

[tepid haven]

From what the UK news is saying it seems to be a micosoft update and only reported by businesses with CrowdStrike.

Still mad they wouldnt test the update first

[manic torrent]

Yeah that's completely wrong

[tepid haven]

thats... good? lol

[grim belfry]

Context is important

Lots to explain :)

[tepid haven]

Theres no definite thing just "shit hit the fan and its possibly microsoft and possibly CrowdStrike"

[manic torrent]

I would not believe any technical details given by news right now

[tepid haven]

ah I see

[manic torrent]

Particularly because a lot of them..... Have all their shit broken due to the outage, lol

[tepid haven]

Nah nah mb my phrasing is that of a duck

[grim belfry]

:)

[tepid haven]

Lol yea

[manic torrent]

@_JohnHammond There is a faulty channel file, so not quite an update.

There is a workaround...

1. Boot Windows into Safe Mode or WRE.
2. Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike
3. Locate and delete file matching "C-00000291*.sys"
4. Boot normally.

Which requires someone who understands what safe mode is and can do it, and if it's got bitlocker they need the key, and it's a manual laborious process. This is the issue.

The IT guy who is going to be tasked to do this fix is going to have a field day lol.

This should sum up the situation pretty nicely lol

Like, they'll need to go to every single pc individually right?

bitlocker and no local admin password says hi 😂

bitlocker encrypted > attached to domain > disaster

Yes. Basically he/she either need to run to everyone and fix their PC one by one, or setup a booth ask people line up and fix their PC one by one.

Linux guy: "Huh? What is crowdstrike?"

[grim belfry]

This is why I don’t use these newfangled compooter things

[dense quail]

So this is a bigger issue than just me?

[ocean sonnet]

I'm sad that I took PTO for today, it would have been a free day anyway

[grim belfry]

Crowdstrike has linux agents too

They just weren’t affected
