Major IT outage affecting banks, airlines, media outlets across the world

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...

Actually, it may have helped slow climate change a little
The earth is healing 🙏
For part of today
With all the aircraft on the ground, it was probably a noticeable change. Unfortunately, those people are still going to end up flying at some point, so the reduction in CO2 output on Friday will just be made up for over the next few days.
