If Crowdstrike crashes systems on the plane Im traveling on this is exactly who I want in the cockpit - someone with sys admin skills.

Don't worry, any flight control computer used on commercial airliners is based on such ancient tech, that it wouldn't even be able to run Crowdstrike.

Yeah, I know, but I needed my furry joke to work.

Why would crowdstrike be anywhere on an airplane control system?

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Bcs their original business was air-to-crowd weaponry.

I assume this was an attempt at a pun because I'm not sure what the fuck you're talking about.

Yes, I apologise, my attempt at linking their company's name to terrorist acts over crowds of people have indeed been a joke (not a pun tho).
