  • I always like to tell my BSG story.

    1. Watch mini series, it’s good
    2. Don’t get into the rest, forget about it
    3. Come home one day to flat mate watching it on DVD, just as the Galactica jumps into the atmosphere on New Caprica and jumps out again.
    4. Me: “I need to watch this from the start”
    5. Flat mate ejects the disc right then and there and inserts the first disc of the first season.
    6. We watch it every night until the end

    Best TV ever made.





  • TL;DR: Because the underlying OS is garbage.

    Whatever CrowdStrike’s “features” are should already be core security features of the kernel itself, or be exposed/extracted into user space.

    NT was supposed to be a micro kernel. That this tool injects itself into the kernel immediately compromises the kernel. Edit: I should point out that it seems that CS injects drivers into the Linux kernel too, it might just be that Linux handles a driver crash more elegantly.

    No different to the gaming anti-cheat kernel crap.

    Having a “security” tool immediately compromise your actual security is absurd.
