Windows is a joke as an OS in server environments. No matter how many people MS pays off over the years to get it sold.

So much this. Tiny champions so much d-mb sh-t. No clue. No creativity. No completed success. Just redefine and revise and move on.

Don’t worry. Cloud fixes all. We won’t be responsible for infrastructure and overhead. Such a great idea and imagine the cost savings.

Shut up Tim.

Of all his brain dead comments irl… there’s been d-mber ones too.

There are also many companies who are back up and operational. Why can not our IT resolve this efficiently? Oh, because its Schwab IT.

This is global. Companies and industries affected, just to name a few, include Visa, all airlines (many flights were halted or grounded for hours), hospitals (surgeries are being postponed), banks (including Schwab Bank), and so forth. Basically if you are Windows based, chances are you were impacted if you use Crowdstrike for security. Schwab RPS and SPS is are down. This also affects PCRA accounts, which you cannot place any trades.

Talk about narrow tunnel vision here. Sure this could affect Schwab revenue, but that's just a drop in the bucket from the scale of things.

So it’s a Friday?

There’s enough troubles. A global vendor issue does demonstrate a huge risk that Dennis down was repeatedly warned about the risk. Lots of arrogant CxOs got hit and a few managed their systems with vendor diversity and alternates.
