Even the Valve Steam Deck runs Linux, which is partly why the company pushed hard to get Proton development underway to offer some degree of support for thousands of games on the Steam platform. Supercomputers run Linux, and so do most web servers, and even IoT hardware. Linux is almost like a bloat-free blank slate to build something efficient without all the bloat that comes with Windows or macOS. Windows can also be found in the public domain, as evident by the sheer number of BSODs that have been spotted.

Come along for the ride as Dan betrays his total ignorance of soccer/football, much to Elliot’s amusement. But it’s all about keeping the human factor in sports, so we suppose it was worth it. Less controversially, we ogled over a display of PCB repair heroics, analyzed a reverse engineering effort that got really lucky, and took a look at an adorable one-transistor ham transceiver. We also talked about ants doing surgery, picking locks with nitric acid, a damn cute dam, and how to build one of the world’s largest machines from scratch in under a century. Plus, we answered the burning question: can a CRT be used as an audio amplifier? Yes, kind of, but please don’t let the audiophiles know or we’ll never hear the end of it. * ⚓ 2024-07-18_[Older]_Enterprise_Linux_Security_Episode_96_-_Weaponized Workflows⠀⇛ * ⚓ Going Linux ☛ 2024-07-16_[Older]_Going_Linux_#548_·_Networking_– Introduction⠀⇛ * ⚓ The TLLTS Podcast ☛ The_Linux_Link_Tech_Show_Episode_1060⠀⇛ joel likes his tastycake pies. * ⚓ 2024-07-19_[Older]_Linux_Mint_22_"Wilma"_BETA_RELEASED_with_MIND BLOWING_Features!_-_See_What's_New!_(2024)⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-19_[Older]_Game-Changing_Mod_Management_is_coming_to_Steam Deck!⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-19_[Older]_XeroLinux_Now_An_Arch_Installation_Script_(A_Chat With_DarkXero)⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-19_[Older]_How_to_install_MEGAsync_on_Ubuntu_24.04⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-19_[Older]_CachyOS_240714_overview_|_Blazingly_Fast_& Customizable_Linux_distribution⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-19_[Older]_How_to_Install_AlmaLinux_OS:_Step-by-Step_Guide⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-19_[Older]_GNOME_Executive_Director_Steps_Down,_Who_Will_Step Up?⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-19_[Older]_GNOME_vs_KDE_Plasma_in_2024:_which_one_is_better_for Linux_beginners?⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-19_[Older]_Mozilla_And_Firefox_We_Need_To_Talk⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-19_[Older]_The_Biggest_Computer_Crash⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-18_[Older]_This_PS2_emulator_just_had_a_MAJOR_new_release⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-18_[Older]_How_to_install_Minetest_on_Ubuntu_24.04⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-18_[Older]_Manjaro_24.0_"Wynsdey'"_Xfce_Desktop_Quick_Overview #shorts⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-18_[Older]_Make_GNOME_Faster:_Speed_Boost_Trick_You_Need_to Know!⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-18_[Older]_Fedora_41_drops_X11,_GNOME_loses_director,_Copilot lawsuit_dismissed:_Linux_&_Open_Source_News⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-18_[Older]_How_To_Prepare_Bootable_USB_For_Linux:_Beginner's Tutorial⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-18_[Older]_Liya_Linux_1.1_Quick_Overview_#shorts⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-17_[Older]_FVWM_The_King_Of_The_Window_Manager_Forks⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-17_[Older]_7_Useful_Shell_Utilities_That_I_Rarely_Use⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-17_[Older]_How_to_install_Krita_on_Ubuntu_24.04⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-17_[Older]_GNOME_47_Opts_For_An_Interesting_Change_In_Design⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-16_[Older]_How_to_install_Pinta_on_Ubuntu_24.04⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-16_[Older]_Ubuntu_Budgie_24.04_LTS_Quick_Overview_#shorts⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-16_[Older]_NMBL:_The_End_Of_The_Linux_Bootloader⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-15_[Older]_How_to_install_Sublime_Text_on_Ubuntu_24.04⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-15_[Older]_40_Long_Years_Of_The_X_Window_System⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-15_[Older]_How_to_install_TUXEDO_OS_3_20240708⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-15_[Older]_20_Things_You_MUST_DO_After_Installing_Ubuntu_24.04 LTS_(Right_Now!)⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2024-07-15_[Older]_5_Things_To_Do_Right_After_Installing_Linux⠀⇛ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 380 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/20/Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Software.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/20/Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Software.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Best Free and Open Source Software⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Jul 20, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇cog_wheel⦈_ * ⚓ 6_Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Robotic_Process_Automation_Tools_- LinuxLinks⠀⇛ RPA or Robotic Process Automation are software base solutions designed to mimic the same “manual” path taken through applications by an end user. It is typically used to automate repetitive tasks previously performed by a humans as an effective way to cut costs, eliminate keying errors, speed up processes and easily link applications together. These tasks can be successfully modeled and converted into a business process and then automated using a combination of (UI) interactions, connectors to client servers, mainframes, database, web, and others. RPA (robotic process automation) is now gaining traction in helping organisations increase productivity and reduce costs. RPA helps to automate repetitive digital processes by instructing the computer to do what is done manually by a human worker. Examples include claims processing, HR onboarding, sales lead generation, collecting and moving data across different applications. Here’s our verdict on the best RPA tools. Only free and open source software is eligible for inclusion. * ⚓ Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Alternatives_to_Microsoft_PowerPoint_- LinuxLinks⠀⇛ However, in recent years, there has been a partial shift by Microsoft to embrace the open source software paradigm. For example, some of their code is open sourced. Examples include Visual Studio Code, .NET Framework, the now-abandoned Atom, and PowerShell. They have also made investments in Linux development, server technology and organizations including the Linux Foundation and Open Source Initiative. They have made acquisitions such as Xamarin to help mobile app development, and GitHub a hugely popular code repository for open source developers. And they have partnered with Canonical, the developers of the popular Ubuntu distro. But many developers remain hugely sceptical about Microsoft and their apparent shift to embrace open source. * ⚓ Agregore_-_minimal_web_browser_for_the_distributed_web_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Agregore is a minimal web browser for the distributed web. Agregore works by letting you load web pages and content from peer to peer protocols the same way you would load them from a website. Agregore not only supports loading data through custom protocols, but it also provides APIs for uploading data into peer to peer protocols. This is done via the browser’s fetch() API which is what web developers use to talk to web servers over HTTP or HTTPS. This is free and open source software. ⣿⣿⣿⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⣸⣿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣶⣾⣿⣷⣶⣾⣿⣿⣤⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣰⣿⣿⣤⣴⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⡟⠁⣀⣤⣶⣿⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣶⣦⣤⣶⣿⣿⣿⣶⣄⠀⣶⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⢰⣾⣶⡀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠶⠤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣄⣼⢀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣤⣀⣤⣶⣦⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣶⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⠛⠁⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⣀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⠏⢈⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠉⠛⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠉⣀⣬⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣶⣾⠁⠀⠈⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⠀⠙⠻⣿⠃⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠻⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠆⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⡄⠙⠂⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠟⣠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠿⠇⠀⠹⠿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⢀⠀⠻⡿⠟⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡋⠉⠁⢀⣤⣤⣤⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⣤⣄⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⣀⣴⣾⣿⣿⣷⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢀⣈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣦⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⡀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣯⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠉⠉⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠉⢡⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣤⣬⣭⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣟⠋⠉⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠁⢸⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠛⠉⠉⠀⢀⣠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠻⠿⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⠛⣿⣿⣿⡟⢹⣧⣤⣼⢿⣿⣿⡇⠀⢼⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠉⢁⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⣤⣤⣴⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠛⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⠿⠛⠓⣼⣿⡿⠃⠀⠈⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠘⠿⢿⡇⠠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣧⠀⣤⣶⣶⣴⣤⣤⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡿⡿⠿⢿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣹⡟⠀⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡏⠁⠀⠸⣿⣿⡿⠛⠉⠉⠉⠛⠛⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 489 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/20/Crypto_community_reacts_to_Windows_CrowdStrike_outage_as_blockc.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/20/Crypto_community_reacts_to_Windows_CrowdStrike_outage_as_blockc.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Crypto community reacts to Windows- CrowdStrike outage as blockchains unaffected⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 20, 2024 Some community members emphasized the role of the Windows operating system in the outage, claiming that one of the strengths of blockchains is that they typically run on multiple operating systems.

Installing the Nvidia drivers in Fedora GNU/Linux was not easy in the past. You had to add 3rd party repos and then install specific packages. Not very intuitive for beginners. That’s why we teamed up with the RPMFusion community which created a separate repository with the Nvidia driver that was enabled in Fedora Workstation if you agreed to enable third-party software sources. It also shipped AppStream metadata to integrate with app catalogs like GNOME Software. So all the user had to do was open GNOME Software, look up “nvidia”, and click to install it.

I'll mainly test the Plasma 6 desktop under Wayland, in different scenarios: different ratios, different drivers, different buttons, and different pressure curves. I'll also test other aspect as color calibration, Krita packages, etc... This will also allow me to test and give feedback on features as they are developed, on a system that's very unstable because it's full of work-in-progress code. It's a one hundred percent volunteer beta testing effort to help the developers get through a couple of crises: packaging, Wayland, graphic tablet drivers.

This command is essential for network administration and troubleshooting, as it helps in organizing and accessing devices in a networked environment efficiently. If you are into network administration, and your work involves working on the Linux command line, you should be aware of several network-related command line tools. One such tool is the hostname command, which you can use to display or set the system's hostname. In this tutorial, we will learn more about this utility using some easy-to- understand examples. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1383 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/20/Programming_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/20/Programming_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Programming Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 20, 2024 * ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ AMD_3DNow!_instructions_finally_extinct_as_LLVM compiler_drops_support⠀⇛ Over a decade after AMD stopped using 3DNow!, the LLVM compiler is dropping support for the instruction set. * ⚓ KDAB ☛ Behind_the_Scenes_of_Embedded_Updates⠀⇛ An over-the-air (OTA) update capability is an increasingly critical part of any embedded product to close cybersecurity vulnerabilities, allow just-in-time product rollouts, stomp out bugs, and deliver new features.

Objectively, this means metadata of loading classes in Java are set in the non-heap region also known as the native region of the memory (again, not inside the heap). This Metaspace region is a change from previous versions, which had Java Metaspace as part of the heap in the so-called "Permanent Generation" and was set using the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) flag: PermSize and MaxPermSize.  Although this discussion is very well settled, this article aims to review Metaspace, its tuning, and the consequences for container and non-container usage. It also adds troubleshooting steps in case those are needed. ✐ Metaspace explanation⠀✐ As briefly mentioned above, Metaspace was introduced on JDK 8+, therefore, in the case of OutOfMemory Exception, changed from the  Java.Lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen to OutOfMemoryError: Metaspace. Consequently, this is the first indication that the Java version is being used above JDK 7. Metaspace does not occupy the heap region but rather the native space of the JVM, so it is not bounded by the Xmx setting. Metaspace will allocate regions of memory in the so-called metaspace chunks, or metachunks inside the Virtual Spaces, which are areas of contiguous address space provided by the OS. This allocation is done on demand. More information in this solution: How_does_the_JVM_divide_the_Metaspace_in_the_memory? Also in that solution, it is explained that in JDK 11, the VM.metaspace option was introduced in Java diagnostics, which provides complete detailed information about Metaspace, including the chunks, the size, the InitialBootClassLoaderMetaspaceSize, UseCompressedClassPointers, and CompressedClassSpaceSize. Also, detailed information on the chunks: [...] ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1632 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/20/Release_Notes_RELIANOID_Load_Balancer_Community_Edition_v7_3.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/20/Release_Notes_RELIANOID_Load_Balancer_Community_Edition_v7_3.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Release Notes: RELIANOID Load Balancer Community Edition v7.3⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 20, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇RELIANOID⦈_ We are thrilled to announce the release of RELIANOID Load Balancer Community Edition (CE) version 7.3, now based on the robust Debian 12.6 (codename “bookworm”).

This work is not complete, but so far it’s taken a big bite out of the open issues! The work lands in a mixture of Plasma 6.1.3 and 6.2.0 (link 1, link 2, link 3, link 4, link 5, link 6). Beyond this, it’s notable that Plasma developers fixed the five most common Plasma crashes, as well as a bunch of less common ones, which you’ll see mentioned below. These were caused by a mix of Qt regressions and our own code defects.

It's easy to install and all but guaranteed to work on your Pi with no issues. If you do run into some problems, you can always rely on the comprehensive official documentation or the huge Raspberry Pi community for help. But while the Raspberry Pi OS is a great general-purpose OS for both simple and advanced projects, you might want to switch to a different system that fits your needs better. One of the top OS options for Raspberry Pis, especially for beginners, is Ubuntu. It's among the major Linux flavors out there, so it's well-supported, and its community is just as massive.

That’s great news for shareholders and fans of the near-ubiquitous system — except, of course, when the dreaded “blue screen of death” appears during a major tech glitch like Friday’s CrowdStrike outage. Some users of the less popular operating systems in the tech world are using Friday’s IT blunder to dunk on Windows and Microsoft. And with X still being up and running, the memes are flowing freely. Linux Handbook, a site offering tutorials and instruction on using the open- source Linux operating system beloved by a small, vocal group of mostly developers, made sure to mark itself “safe” from the CrowdStrike outage Friday morning. First conceived in the early ’90s, Linux has a user base that prides itself on its tech savvy and the relatively bomb-proof nature of its collaborative, open-source software — which usually means that a few bad lines of code found in one software update won’t collapse the global IT market.

He operated under the online aliases “BETTERPAY,” “offtitan,” and “Eastfarmer.” * ⚓ Two_LockBit_Ransomware_Affiliates_Plead_Guilty_In_U.S._Federal_Court⠀⇛ Between 2020 and 2024, the LockBit group had attacked over 2,500 victims in at least 120 countries, with 1,800 of those in the United States, extorting hundreds of millions of dollars in the form of ransom payments. * ⚓ UK_Police_Arrest_Suspect_in_MGM_Ransomware_Attack⠀⇛ On Friday U.K. police announced, in a joint operation with the country’s National Crime Agency (NCA) and the U.S. FBI, they arrested a 17 year-old suspected of being connected to the ransomware attack against MGM Resorts last year. * ⚓ Microsoft's_massive_outage_explained_in_10_points:_Blue_Screen_of Death,_Azure,_CrowdStrike_and_all_we_know_so_far⠀⇛ A massive IT outage has thrown businesses and critical services into chaos globally, with Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365 services experiencing widespread disruptions. The root cause? A faulty update from cybersecurity provider CrowdStrike, affecting countless Windows PCs and servers across various sectors. * ⚓ What_We_Know_About_the_Global_Microsoft_Outage⠀⇛ The problem affecting the majority of services was caused by a flawed update by CrowdStrike, an American cybersecurity firm, whose systems are intended to protect users from hackers. Microsoft said on Friday that it was aware of an issue affecting machines running “CrowdStrike Falcon.” But Microsoft had also said there was an earlier outage affecting U.S. users of Azure, its cloud service system. Some users may have been affected by both. Even as a fix was sent out by CrowdStrike, some systems were still affected into the U.S. morning as businesses needed to make manual updates to their systems to resolve the issue. * ⚓ An_angry_admin_shares_the_CrowdStrike_outage_experience⠀⇛ Being hit by the outage is one thing. Recovering is quite another. The workarounds published so far are less than ideal for administrators used to remotely managing devices. Since the failure leaves an affected device stuck in a Blue Screen Of Death (BSOD) boot loop, implementing a workaround tends to involves in-person intervention unless remote access that does not use the operating system is possible. Sadly, for our administrator, things are less than ideal. * ⚓ Blue_Screen_Of_Death_Is_Not_A_Cybersecurity_Incident,_Says_Australian Cybersecurity_Minister⠀⇛ CrowdStrike said it is actively working with customers impacted by a defect found in a single content update for Windows hosts. “Mac and Linux hosts are not impacted. This is not a security incident or cyberattack,” CrowdStrike said. * ⚓ Widespread_Windows_Crashes_Due_to_Crowdstrike_Updates⠀⇛ Last night, endpoint security company Crowdstrike released an update that is causing widespread "blue screens of death" (BSOD) on Windows systems. Crowdstrike released an advisory, which is only available after logging into the Crowdstrike support platform. A brief public statement can be found here. Update: Some reports we have seen indicate that there may be phishing emails circulating claiming to come from "Crowdstrike Support" or "Crowdstrike Security". I do not have any samples at this point, but attackers are likely leveraging the heavy media attention. Please be careful with any "patches" that may be delivered this way. * ⚓ CrowdStrike_and_the_Evil_of_Automatic_Updates⠀⇛ Last night CrowdStrike sent an automatic update that threw millions of Windows based computers into blue screen of death reboot loops. This took down airlines, banks, hospitals, government services, TV networks and many more. To fix the problem, IT staff have to boot each computer in safe mode, delete the CrowdStrike device driver and then reboot again. If the hard drive is encrypted then there is added complexity accessing the drive to delete the driver. * ⚓ CrowdStrike_Falcon_flaw_sends_Windows_computers_into_chaos_worldwide⠀⇛ Thousands of Windows machines worldwide, including those at banks, airlines, TV broadcasters, and supermarkets, are experiencing a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD). The faulty CrowdStrike update has caused affected PCs and servers to enter a recovery boot loop, preventing them from starting properly. Early Friday, companies in Australia first reported the issue, which quickly spread globally to the U.K., India, Germany, the Netherlands, and the U.S. * ⚓ Rising_cybersecurity_threats_in_the_cloud:_A_call_to_action⠀⇛ Ransomware: Ransomware attacks continue to be a major concern, with cybercriminals targeting cloud environments to maximise disruption and extort ransoms. The report emphasises the need for comprehensive backup and recovery strategies to counter ransomware threats. * ⚓ Dark_web_shows_cybercriminals_ready_for_Olympics._Are_you?⠀⇛ These events are also prime opportunities for cybercriminals. Over the past decade, the number of cyberattacks targeting major events has surged, increasing from 212 million documented attacks at the London 2012 Games to a staggering 4.4 billion at the Tokyo 2020 Games. These attacks often have direct financial motives, such as scams, digital fraud, or the acquisition of valuable data from attendees, viewers, and sponsors. In their excitement, eager fans often overlook potential risks when purchasing tickets, arranging accommodations, or buying memorabilia, making them easy targets for cybercriminals. Others, desperate to view specific events, are enticed by malicious websites offering free access, only to have their devices compromised or personal data stolen. With the world’s media focused on the event, criminals with a political agenda are looking for a large audience for their message by disrupting a significant site or knocking critical services offline. * ⚓ Global_IT_Outage_Grounds_Flights,_Disrupts_Health_Care_and_Banking_| Truthout⠀⇛ “Shortly after,” the outlet continued, “reports of disruptions started flooding in from around the world, including from the U.K., India, Germany, the Netherlands, and the U.S.: TV station Sky News went offline, and U.S. airlines United, Delta, and American Airlines issued a ‘global ground stop‘ on all flights.” * ⚓ Global_cyber_[sic]_outage_grounds_flights,_hits_banks, telecommunications,_media⠀⇛ A software update wreaked havoc on computer systems globally on Friday, grounding flights, forcing some broadcasters off air and hitting services from banking to healthcare. * ⚓ How_One_Bad_CrowdStrike_Update_Crashed_the_World’s_[Windows] Computers⠀⇛ Only a handful of times in history has a single piece of code managed to instantly wreck computer systems worldwide. The Slammer worm of 2003. Russia’s Ukraine-targeted NotPetya cyberattack. North Korea’s self-spreading ransomware WannaCry. But the ongoing digital catastrophe that rocked the internet and IT infrastructure worldwide over the past 12 hours appears to have been triggered not by malicious code released by hackers, but by the software designed to stop them. * ⚓ CERT-In:_CrowdStrike_Update_Caused_Windows_BSOD_Outages⠀⇛ Amidst the global outage affecting Microsoft Windows systems, the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) has issued a critical advisory (CIAD-2024-0035) to address the issue. This outage seems to have stemmed from a recent update to the CrowdStrike Falcon Sensor, a popular endpoint detection and response (EDR) solution. Dubbed the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD), the outage has disrupted operations across airports, hospitals, software firms among other sectors globally and is generating widespread frustration among users. * ⚓ All_Sciphol_flights_delayed_or_canceled_over_global_Windows_outage;_Fix in_the_making⠀⇛ Every single flight at Schiphol Airport was delayed or canceled on Friday due to a global Windows outage. The Amsterdam airport was filled to the brim with frustrated travelers trying to start their summer vacation. At 11:45 a.m., the CEO of Crowdstrike, the company whose cybersecurity software was behind the outage, said that they had identified the issue and were deploying a fix. The outage impacted multiple airlines at Schiphol Airport, making it impossible for them to access their check-in systems, among other things. KLM canceled a large part of its operations on Friday as a result. * ⚓ KLM:_More_cancellations_likely_this_weekend_but_IT_disruption_nearly resolved⠀⇛ At Schiphol, 185 flights were cancelled on Friday due to the global computer [sic] failure. The systems at Schiphol were being restarted by 3:30 p.m., but it has had a major impact on flights to and from the airport. * ⚓ Windows_outage_closed_two_terminals_at_Rotterdam_port;_Some_regional buses_affected⠀⇛ Two terminals at the port of Rotterdam were closed on Friday due to the Crowdstrike bug that crashed Windows computers worldwide. The malfunction makes loading and unloading impossible at the ECT Euromax and ECT Delta. The outage also impacted buses in the province of Utrecht, Amersfoort, and Almere. Crowdstrike announced at around noon that it was implementing a fix, but it would take time for impacted companies to restart their processes and catch up. * ⚓ Windows,_Microsoft,_Blue_Screen_of_Death:_Flights,_Markets,_Banks, Stock_Exchange:_Microsoft_Outage_Crippling_Sectors⠀⇛ From flights to supermarkets to banking operations, the global Microsoft outage is disrupting multiple sectors and threatens to lead to massive issues if it is not resolved soon. In India, almost all air carriers -- Vistara, IndiGo, SpiceJet and Akasa Air -- are facing technical issues that are affecting booking, check-in and flight updates. The airlines are now checking in passengers manually. * ⚓ Windows_Computers_Lead_To_'Blue_Screen_Of_Death'_Due_To_CrowdStrike Error⠀⇛ Millions of Windows users across the globe today experienced the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) error which caused the system to suddenly shut down or restart. The Microsoft error, caused due to a CrowdStrike 'Falcon Sensor' update, affected airlines banks, stock markets, and other businesses across the globe. * ⚓ Bad_Software_Update_Causes_Havoc_In_Businesses_Across_The_World Including_Banks_and_Airlines_Using_Microsoft_Windows⠀⇛ The problem seems to have impacted airlines and banks the most but this may just be because delay of service for them is quite visible and some frustrated customers would resort to complaining on social media. Other companies affected would be telecoms, insurance companies… really any company for whom security on employee computers is important enough they’d pay upwards of $50 a year for each computer. * ⚓ Huge_Microsoft_Outage_Linked_to_CrowdStrike_Takes_Down_Computers_Around the_World⠀⇛ In the early hours of Friday, companies in Australia running Microsoft’s Windows operating system started reporting devices showing Blue Screens of Death (BSODs). Shortly after, reports of disruptions started flooding in from around the world, including from the UK, India, Germany, the Netherlands, and the US: TV station Sky News went offline, and US airlines United, Delta, and American Airlines issued a “global ground stop” on all flights. * ⚓ CrowdStrike_Bug_Leads_to_Worldwide_BSODs,_Grounding_Flights,_Halting Banking,_and_More⠀⇛ CrowdStrike’s products are extremely popular, and this problem is shockingly widespread I’ve got a bunch of friends in corporate IT, and none of them are having a good day. Here’s Warren again: [...] * ⚓ Microsoft_resolves_cloud_outage_that_caused_some_US_airlines_to_ground flights⠀⇛ Low-cost carriers Frontier Airlines, a unit of Frontier Group Holdings, Allegiant and SunCountry had reported outages that affected operations. Frontier said late Thursday that it was in the process of resuming normal operations, and that the ground stop had been lifted. U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg said the department was monitoring the flight cancellation and delay issues at Frontier, adding that the agency will hold the company and all other airlines "to their responsibilities to meet the needs of passengers". * ⚓ Microsoft_outage_impacts_Indigo,_Akasa,_Spicejet,_Air_India_Operations, airport_services⠀⇛ A major disruption in Microsoft Corp.’s cloud services caused service disruptions to a number of businesses around the world, including in India, on Friday. A number of airlines, including Indigo, Akasa Air, Air India Express and Spicejet have said that they were all facing technical glitches. * ⚓ Windows_users_face_outage_after_Crowd_strike_update,_CERT-In_issues fix⠀⇛ Netizens took to social media to express their ire on the outage. An 'X' user posting a picture of the Blue Screen wrote, "Something super weird happening right now: just been called by several totally different media outlets in the last few minutes, all with Windows machines suddenly BSoD’ing (Blue Screen of Death). Anyone else seen this? Seems to be entering recovery mode:" * ⚓ Microsoft_says_cause_of_outage_at_365_apps_and_services_fixed⠀⇛ Low-cost carriers Frontier Airlines, a unit of Frontier Group Holdings, Allegiant and SunCountry had reported outages that affected operations. Frontier said late Thursday that it was in the process of resuming normal operations, and that the ground stop had been lifted. * ⚓ Massive_global_IT_outage_is_a_perfect_ad_for_buying_a_Mac⠀⇛ If you couldn’t fly, buy tickets, withdraw money, watch the news, or buy groceries this morning, you’re not alone. A massive global IT outage affecting countless businesses and services grounded United, Delta, and American Airlines flights, delayed British soccer team Manchester United ticket sales, and knocked Sky News off the air. The reason? A Windows update. * ⚓ What_is_CrowdStrike,_and_what_happened?⠀⇛ The update in question appears to have installed faulty software onto the core Windows operating system, causing systems to get stuck in a boot loop. Systems are showing an error message that says, “It looks like Windows didn’t load correctly,” while giving users the option to try troubleshooting methods or restart the PC. Many companies, including this airline in India, have resorted to the good old- fashioned way of doing things by hand. * ⚓ Starbucks_mobile_ordering_falls_victim_to_the_CrowdStrike_BSOD_outage⠀⇛ The Starbucks app itself is working, but the ability to order ahead is currently unavailable at all locations. It looks as though some Starbucks shops have (temporarily) closed altogether to avoid dealing with this tech hassle until the situation improves. * ⚓ Global_Microsoft_Meltdown_Tied_to_Bad_Crowdstrike_Update⠀⇛ A faulty software update from cybersecurity vendor Crowdstrike crippled countless Microsoft Windows computers across the globe today, disrupting everything from airline travel and financial institutions to hospitals and businesses online. Crowdstrike said a fix has been deployed, but experts say the recovery from this outage could take some time, as Crowdstrike’s solution needs to be applied manually on a per-machine basis. * ⚓ CloudStrike_shares_plunge_10%_as_global_IT_outage_prompts_mass_chaos: 'A_major_black_eye'⠀⇛ CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz scrambled to apologize for the crisis, which affected millions of customers using Microsoft Windows — crippling airlines, banks, hospitals and various other clients. * ⚓ Global_Microsoft_outage_affects_local_businesses,_hospitals_and_UMich operations⠀⇛ Microsoft Windows crashed globally Friday morning due to cybersecurity issues, causing problems in a variety of industries including health care, travel and business. The outage created flight disruptions for major airlines in India and Latin America, and has resulted in more than 3,300 flight cancellations worldwide. In Michigan, hospitals are facing software difficulties, including large hospital systems such as Corewell Health, a result of the merger between Beaumont Health and Spectrum Health, and Michigan Medicine, delaying procedures and appointments for patients. * ⚓ Microsoft_Outage:_What_Caused_the_IT_Meltdown⠀⇛ There have been two issues affecting Microsoft systems in quick succession, adding to the confusion over a global outage. * ⚓ Reboots_best_fix_for_Azure_VMs_CrowdStrike_borked,_says_Msft⠀⇛ It's not believed that the CrowdStrike failure was related to the other Azure outage yesterday, so if you're recovering from one hopefully you didn't have to deal with the other. If your VMs were borked by Falcon, however, then read on. * ⚓ IT_glitch_causing_delays_in_flights,_business_operations_globally⠀⇛ Many of those who use Microsoft Windows are likely experiencing a “blue screen of death” or an error page. The issue is due to a single bug in a software update from cybersecurity company CrowdStrike, which provides antivirus software for Microsoft users. * ⚓ IT_glitch_causing_delays_in_flights,_business_operations_globally⠀⇛ The company pushed out an update to the software overnight, and at 1:30 a.m. EST, CrowdStrike said its “Falcon Sensor” software was causing Microsoft Windows to crash and display a blue screen, Reuters reported. * ⚓ Widespread_technology_outage_disrupts_flights,_banks,_companies_around the_world⠀⇛ Cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike said that the issue believed to be behind the outage was not a security incident or cyberattack — and that a fix was on the way. The company said the problem occurred when it deployed a faulty update to computers running Microsoft Windows. But hours after the problem was first detected, the disarray continued — and escalated. * ⚓ Widespread_technology_[sic]_outage_disrupts_flights,_banks,_media outlets_and_companies_around_the_world⠀⇛ Long lines formed at airports in the U.S., Europe and Asia as airlines lost access to check-in and booking services at a time when many travelers are heading away on summer vacations. News outlets in Australia — where telecommunications were severely affected — were pushed off air for hours. Hospitals and doctor's offices had problems with their appointment systems, while banks in South Africa and New Zealand reported outages to their payment system or websites and apps. * ⚓ Massive_global_IT_outage_grounds_flights,_disrupts_banking,_hits media⠀⇛ A massive IT outage has struck industries around the world, grounding flights, halting stock trading, and interfering with broadcasting. The outage was attributed to a faulty update by CrowdStrike, a company that develops a widely-used cybersecurity software, and it is affecting machines using Microsoft Windows. Apple and Linux systems are not affected. * ⚓ Microsoft_Outage,_Windows,_Vistara,_Air_India,_IndiGo:_Catching_A Flight_Amid_Microsoft_Outage?_Here's_How_To_Prepare⠀⇛ All air carriers operating in India have been hit by the Microsoft outage. Air India, Vistara, IndiGo, SpiceJet and Akasa Air are putting out updates to guide passengers and inform them about the situation. Air India said its "digital systems have been impacted temporarily due to the current Microsoft outage, resulting in delays". IndiGo warned that check-ins "may be slower and queues longer". The low-cost carrier also said the option to rebook a flight or claim a refund is temporarily unavailable. SpiceJet said it is working closely with authorities to minimise disruptions. Akasa Air said its online services have been affected. Vistara, too, said it is facing technical challenges and is working to fix it at the earliest. * ⚓ Passengers_in_disarray_as_Microsoft_outage_disrupts_airline_services⠀⇛ Amid a massive global outage that hit operations of airlines, banks and businesses across the globe, Microsoft on Friday said it is aware of the issue affecting Windows devices due to an update from a third-party software platform. * ⚓ Microsoft_outage:_Frontier_and_other_airlines_were_at_a_standstill_for hours⠀⇛ A significant Microsoft outage brought low-cost carrier Frontier Airlines and some competitors to a standstill for hours after a regulator halted departures. The ground stop was lifted late Thursday night. “Our systems are currently impacted by a Microsoft outage, which is also affecting other companies,” Frontier said in a statement on its website. “We appreciate your patience.” The company was offering refunds to inconvenienced passengers. * ⚓ Microsoft_Windows_Outage,_Crowdstrike,_Spicejet,_Indigo,_Akasa_Air: Blue_Screen_Of_Death_Error,_Full_List_Of_Services_Hit_In_India⠀⇛ Millions of Microsoft Windows users were experiencing the "Blue Screen of Death" error that caused their computers to shut down or restart. Microsoft said the preliminary root cause was a "configuration change" in a portion of its Azure backend workloads. It caused interruption between storage and compute resources which resulted in connectivity failures that affected downstream Microsoft 365 services dependent on these connections, the company said. * ⚓ Frontier_Airlines_Briefly_Grounds_All_Flights_Amid_Microsoft_Outage⠀⇛ Microsoft said on the status page for Azure, its flagship cloud computing platform, that the problem began at 5:56 p.m. and affected multiple systems for customers in the central United States. “Our systems are currently impacted by a Microsoft outage, which is also affecting other companies. During this time booking, check-in, access to your boarding pass, and some flights may be impacted,” Frontier said in a post on X. The airline issued a ground stop for all its flights, according to a notice posted on the Federal Aviation Administration’s website. The ground stop was lifted about 35 minutes later. * ⚓ Frontier_and_other_airlines_were_at_a_standstill_for_hours_after_a massive_Microsoft_outage_-_KTVZ⠀⇛ The airline has cancelled 131 flights Thursday and delayed 223 others, making up nearly 30% of its overall flights, according to data tracker FlightAware. * ⚓ Grounding_canceled_for_Frontier_Airlines_flights_amid_Microsoft outage⠀⇛ Microsoft also tweeted users might have trouble accessing various Microsoft 365 apps and services. * ⚓ Grounding_canceled_for_Frontier_Airlines_flights_amid_Microsoft_outage -_ABC7_New_York⠀⇛ According to FlightAware, initially 103 Frontier flights (13%) were canceled and 231 flights (30%) were delayed. * ⚓ CrowdStrike_code_update_bricking_PCs_around_the_world⠀⇛ An update to a product from infosec vendor CrowdStrike is bricking computers running Windows. The Register has found numerous accounts of Windows 10 PCs crashing, displaying the Blue Screen of Death, then being unable to reboot. * ⚓ Global_IT_outage_live:_Australian_banks,_flights_and_media_outlets_hit by_CrowdStrike_software_issue⠀⇛ Computer security company CrowdStrike is linked to a major IT outage affecting banks, airports, supermarkets and businesses across Australia and the world. The ABC is experiencing a major network outage, along with several other media outlets. * ⚓ Chaos_As_Global_Tech_[sic]_(Microsoft)_Outage_Delays_Flights,_Disrupts Services⠀⇛ A global tech outage that appeared to be related to issues at global cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike and Microsoft was affecting operations in various sectors on July 19, including airports, airlines, media, and banks. * ⚓ Indian_Airports_Hit_And_Downed_By_Blue_Screen_Of_Death_Error⠀⇛ The headline “Azure Configuration Change Triggers Major Airport Disruption” is clear but could be slightly more specific to capture the full scope of the issue. Here’s a refined version: [...] * ⚓ Microsoft_global_outage:_London_Stock_Exchange_back_up_and_running following_technical_glitches⠀⇛ The company's Regulatory News Service, which publishes company updates, and the prices and news for various assets on its Workspace platform, had also been affected but resumed functioning. A spokesperson for LSEG stated that the issue was due to a third-party global technical problem, but securities trading on the London Stock Exchange remained unaffected. * ⚓ Microsoft's_Blue_Screen_of_Death_Error:_Can_it_affect_schools_and colleges_too?⠀⇛ These costs can be especially challenging for institutes with limited budgets. While investing in high-quality hardware and dependable software can mitigate some risks, it does not completely eliminate the possibility of BSOD errors. * ⚓ Hong_Kong_airport,_airlines_affected_by_global_Microsoft_outage⠀⇛ Cathay subsidiary, low-cost carrier HK Express was also affected. “Due to a global service outage of Microsoft, Navitaire, our global e-commerce system has been affected,” the airline said in a post on Facebook. It added that its website, mobile app, and WeChat mini-app had all been affected. “Self-service check-in facilities at Hong Kong International Airport and our departure control system have also been affected, we are currently performing manual check-in procedures for our passengers,” HK Express said, calling for travellers to allow at least three hours for check-in. Long update Some more coverage: * ⚓ Government_in_touch_with_Microsoft_over_outage:_IT_minister_Ashwini Vaishnaw⠀⇛ The Indian government is in touch with Microsoft and its associate companies regarding the global outage and is hopeful of a solution soon, union electronics and information technology minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said. * ⚓ IT_[sic]_teams_scramble_to_recover_from_CrowdStrike_incident_as officials_warn_of_‘risks_of_consolidation'⠀⇛ At the Aspen Security Forum on Friday, Neuberger explained that an interagency task force was quickly put together to assess the impact on the U.S. government and critical services before going sector by sector to analyze potential downstream ramifications. “What's the impact to power in the country? To hospitals in the country? To 911 systems, the national suicide hotline. We continue to do those calls until we have a good picture now of where we are,” she said, adding that she called CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz and was reassured that it was not a malicious attack. She spoke to several of her counterparts around the world to offer U.S. assistance as well. The outages affected dozens of federal, state and city entities alongside airlines, hospitals, public transportation and TV broadcasters. * ⚓ The_day_the_CrowdStrike_died⠀⇛ Windows is already a rough enough environment to administer, but this is only slightly above a worst-case scenario.
