Major IT outage affecting banks, airlines, media outlets across the world
abc.net.au
All our servers and company laptops went down at pretty much the same time. Laptops have been bootlooping to blue screen of death. It's all very exciting, personally, as someone not responsible for fixing it.
Apparently caused by a bad CrowdStrike update.
Edit: now being told we (who almost all generally work from home) need to come into the office Monday as they can only apply the fix in-person. We'll see if that changes over the weekend...

Half our shit can't even boot into safe mode because it's encrypted and we don't have the keys rofl
If you don't have the keys, what the hell are you doing? We have bitlocker enabled and we have a way to get the recovery key so it's not a problem. Just a huge pain in the ass.
I went home lol. Some other poor schmucks are probably gonna reformat the computers.
