Windows machines wonโ€™t boot, and Mac and Linux work is abandoned because all their users are on twitter making memes.

Incredible work.

Good thing is the kind of people making decisions based on buzzword-bongo filled PR campaigns like Crowdstrike's are already forcing their IT to use Windows anyway.

    It was a serious ask to install it from auditors that don't know what the fuck they are doing. On all ec2 machines for "reasons" I'm sure there are companies out there pushed into doing this because they don't have people willing to die on those hills.
