You can not like windows, and also recognize that CrowdStrike isn't from Microsoft - so a problem that CrowdStrike caused isn't the fault of Windows.
If that makes me a idiot by holding two different ideas in my head, so be it, but you are spending time with us, so thank you for elevating us!
I'm sorry, but distinguishing between different concepts is forbidden here. You go straight to jail.
I'm waiting for the post mortem before declaring this to not be anything to do with MS tbh. It's only affecting windows systems and it wouldn't be the first time dumb architectural decisions on their part have caused issues (why not run the whole GUI in kernel space? What's the worst that could happen?)
I agree it's possible. But if you're a software as a service vendor, it is your responsibility to be in the alpha and beta release channels, so if there is a show stopping error coming down the pipeline you can get in front of it.
But more tellingly, we have not seen Windows boot loop today from other vendors, only this vendor. Right now the balance of probabilities is in the direction of crowd strike
Ah yes the classic presumption of guilt, a keystone of justice
I'm not sure how to break this to you but this is just an internet forum, not a court of law
The reason courts use it is because they value having true opinions. But you're welcome to not value that indeed
The reason courts have rules of how convinced one must be to declare guilt is because they dread punishing an innocent over allowing a guilty person free
We aren't in a position to hurt the probably guilty party so it doesn't matter a bit of we jump to conclusions unfairly
