what happened?

 

[roguejuror]

what happened?

the Microsoft 365 service is down and it's cascading down to other services that depends on it, one of them is Crowdstrike which services the airline industry, so it's affecting airports worldwide

but also banks, metros and a bunch of other critical infrastructure, the 365 service is the old Microsoft Office suite but in the "cloud" as a subscription, imagine how many businesses use that as their authentication provider

gamelive is up because we are 100% linux and we would never use Microsoft

Would have been a real shit show if the financial markets were closed
