Brett I. Phillips My initials are bip 🤔 I like to play devil’s advocate and take the contrary position.
In practice, have you found that there are multiple “owners” of the same blob/hashes?
What’s a good router for upgrading a home network? I want to have full control and be able to set up different subnets, static IPs, etc for cameras, devices, blah blah. Please don’t recommend some Google or Amazon bs. #asknostr #networking #security

Today, I was by and large unaffected by the Crowdstrike/BSOD situation. While we use it extensively at my day job, I mostly use Apple or Linux with the occasional elderly Windows Server instance here or there. Coincidentally I was setting up a new Windows VM yesterday and was having trouble getting to everything configured including Crowdstrike, so I gave up for the day. If it were not for needing to get some gas for my car, I would probably have had no idea the extent of the outage. As you may have expected, cash only, which was not a problem as I have been expecting such an occurrence and have a small amount available. The whole situation stinks. At best and taking the players at their word, we live in a hyper-connected Jenga game where one wrong move becomes disaster. At worst, and I feel the truth is closer to this outcome, we have let our entire infrastructure become infiltrated with a Trojan horse that can be manipulated at will.
