Check out this custom magnet design I created for Alex R.'s Water Truck! 🚛💧 It's always exciting to see my designs in action, especially for clients who I've had the pleasure of knowing for years. Alex was one of my scouts, and now I'm thrilled to support his public service with this bold and eye-catching magnet.

If you need a unique design that stands out, whether for your vehicle, business, or personal project, I'm here to help. Let's create something amazing together!

In light of the global outage caused by Crowdstrike we have some work around steps for you and your business. Crowdstrike put these out but they are behind a login panel, which is idiotic at best. These steps should be on their public blog and we have a contact we're talking to and pushing for that to happen.
Monitor that situation here: https://www.crowdstrike.com/blog/

In terms of impact, this is Billions to Trillions of dollars in damage.
Systems globally are down including airports, grocery stores, all kinds of things. It's a VERY big deal and a massive failure.

Remediation Steps:
Summary

CrowdStrike is aware of reports of crashes on Windows hosts related to the Falcon Sensor.

Details
* Symptoms include hosts experiencing a bugcheck\blue screen error related to the Falcon Sensor.
* This issue is not impacting Mac- or Linux-based hosts
* Channel file "C-00000291*.sys" with timestamp of 0527 UTC or later is the reverted (good) version.

Current Action
* CrowdStrike Engineering has identified a content deployment related to this issue and reverted those changes.
* If hosts are still crashing and unable to stay online to receive the Channel File Changes, the following steps can be used to workaround this issue:

Workaround Steps for individual hosts:
* Reboot the host to give it an opportunity to download the reverted channel file. If the host crashes again, then:
* Boot Windows into Safe Mode or the Windows Recovery Environment
* Navigate to the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike directory
* Locate the file matching “C-00000291*.sys”, and delete it.
* Boot the host normally.
Note: Bitlocker-encrypted hosts may require a recovery key.

Workaround Steps for public cloud or similar environment:
* Detach the operating system disk volume from the impacted virtual server
* Create a snapshot or backup of the disk volume before proceeding further as a precaution against unintended changes
* Attach/mount the volume to to a new virtual server
* Navigate to the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike directory
* Locate the file matching “C-00000291*.sys”, and delete it.
* Detach the volume from the new virtual server
* Reattach the fixed volume to the impacted virtual server
