Specific to MS OSes. Linux and Mac unaffected.
So anything on Windows X or MS Server 20XX is borked.
This is brutal. I actually have to interact with my coworkers. You could call your boss and ask a day off from work due to this issue. 'They for sure would be able to understand the issue at hand.'

When she arrived, did the workers there look confused and ask who she was? 2-3 years is a decent amount of time between visits

They know who she is. The queen of capital procurement, to be feared or respected, depending if you have found her bad side.
Just reboot "several" times, says MS.

May/may not work. Based on a weird set of circumstances where the network comes up and the agent talks to CS for an update before applying policies. Very unreliable.Just reboot "several" times, says MS.

CS didn't have an outage, go short an orphanage or something.

Going in did not do scratch. No in-person tech support available, they are swamped. She came back quite dissatisfied about the whole day. I shall make myself scarce!!

Why even go in? It is Friday just call it and start the weekend early. That is what Friday is for. It is 5 o'clock someplace.

In the vast cyberspheric atmosphere above my head I again hear Ron White proclaiming "I had the right to remain silent but I didn't have the ability..."
I work for a university and we have a critical gov audit due monday...it's this thing where they give you a list of students (that you don't have beforehand) and want any and every bit of data you have on them going back years. Like every audit trail in every database. Suffice it to say this isn't all in one system. Suffice it also to say that saying little things like "we couldn't work and it wasn't our fault" might bounce off the government's empathy sensors. I've had dealings with INS and the "justice" system and you can get ****ed if you mess anything up, and even if you don't and they mess something up...
Thankfully we were not affected by this outage, though I've heard some other schools were.

today, work is more important for her. Soon, soon she will join me with a fully broken give-a-fuck and get on the sidelines.

On the news it said a bad line of code. Don't they test this stuff before turning it loose?
I always tested the updates I wrote, to my satisfaction. You try to break it, etc. Somebody's in hot water if not already fired.We could use a good solid dump of a class X flare. Not like world ending but just enough to bring down the Internet and power for like a week. Let people be reminded why they should work together.
It was a bad configuration or line of code, yes. The resolution is to delete a specific update file that CS pushed, at which point the system can boot without checking whatever that config does and bluescreening the system. The lack of testing protocol is ... Concerning. I don't know what exactly they're doing at CS but given that this affected literally every Windows system without remorse, I have a hard time believing they tested a damned thing.On the news it said a bad line of code. Don't they test this stuff before turning it loose?
