What's happening with Sky News this morning? It's been down for a while. Apparently Microsoft is experiencing glitches. Is this it? Is this the starts of Armageddon? Grin

Twitter/X says it’s done issue with Crowdstrike. It’s affecting many systems - some of the rail companies’ ticketing systems are down too.

Bbc is nattering away fine 😀 it's probably a glitch and not armageddon (fingers crossed)

I'm off work sick with shingles so at least if it is Armageddon I can sit in the garden and enjoy the sun. ☀️

Problems with cloud servers they seem to think.

That's what they want you to think 😉

VeryExpensive · 19/07/2024 08:39

I wonder if they have tried to turn it off and on again, always works for me.

Weird I get alerts from sky news but then the app doesn't work!

Yep and Teams as well. Was kind of hoping an Azure VM or two might be inaccessible.
