    I won't even touch Amazon anymore, so many things they sell and guarantee is actually counterfeit. They also refuse to fix the issue or acknowledge it's happening.

    I work at GM and I remember that outage.
    It shut us down for 5 hours, they actually sent my shift home early and resume production as soon as third shift came in.
    Not only did it mess with our computing system and completely screwed up our truck count and part scanning system, it also shut down a decent amount of the computers to the companies that ship us our parts.
    All of that ignoring the fact that the GM plant I work at is located very close to my local airport, which was shut down for the same reason, causing massive traffic backups that further delayed our parts.
    A lot of people don't realize it, but tech companies like Microsoft, Apple, etc 100% holds up the way our society works and we are one incorrect line of code away from going back to relying on handwritten notes and physical cash.

    I remember the Y2K bug and thinking that we were all going to die. After, so many people felt it wasn't even an issue.
    It clearly was. Too much information can be bad, but I'm glad we have what we have now in the way of knowing what's going on!

    As one of the of the biggest tech channels on youtube. take more pride in your AUDIO. stop using those shitty as brick mics, that look like you have a laptop on your chest. you first had DJI now RODE….STOP. There are so many better, smaller mic on the market, and i know you know of them bcuz i have seen you review them. Better yet stop being lazy and cheap and hire a legit sound guy. shameful you will spend 10k+ on a fx6 camera but only $199.00 on mics, make that make since……SHAMEFUL!!!!

    So many mugs in the world it's laughable, tec is why young people can't buy their own properties, monthly subscriptions. Expensive tat designed with built in obsolescence, expensive online food deliveries, yet they whine about boomers, I will bet none of these tec fail videos apply to anyone over 45, good luck kids

    I can't believe you blamed an exploration satellite for a rocket telemetry error. I mean, yes it's rocket science, but that's like blaming the passenger in an Uber for not putting gas in it. Also, I can't believe even as a Brit, you can't pronounce Mariner properly.

    Yeah, Concord's marketing was bad but then again, what could've they done? It was a hero-shooter that – as i heard – played allright but brought nothing new to the table. No quirks, no new features or ideas. It was Overwatch in different… which still could've worked IF all those characters weren't so damn unappealing while at the same time showing prouf their pronouns. Gamers are sick of gender-id-stuff.
    Firewalk-studios went straight into this minefield and offered nothing to make it seem worth giving the game a shot… and to top it off, it wasn't even free to play. I don't think there's anything marketing could've done to save it.

    It’s not “ma-reen-na” (spelt marina), it’s “ma-rin-ner” (mariner).

    And the Y2K bug was not laziness, it was due to the initial prohibitive cost of storage – RAM and disk space – because a number between 0 and 99 could be held in one byte, whereas a number between 1900 and 2000 requires two bytes. In 1970 1MB of hard disk space cost about $2,000, by 1990 it was around $10. But nobody spent the money to rewrite the software to take advantage of the relatively cheap price of storage because, profits, until they needed to because, no computer, no profits.

    Thank you @Mrwhosetheboss for another great episode … some of these fails are just laughable, but in most of the TECH cases, it goes to show how much we, as a society, have come to rely on computers. ClowdStrike is a classic example … I remember that day, we'd gone to our local casino for a meal, and all the overhead PC screens were showing the BSOD, as well as a lot of the gaming machines that we saw. I remember laughing about it at the time, and I had a feeling that it wasn't JUST the casino. A quick Google search revealed a much bigger problem =)

    The Crowdstrike issue reeked havoc with my company. More than 1000 computers, including my own work computer wasn't even able to boot into safe mode. It took our IT more than 2 weeks to get my computer back up. And this was an international company with thousands of emplyoees.

    My dad worked on the Y2K upgrade – that is, he went round various companies and installed a pretty simple program and then put a sticker on each machine that said "Y2K Compliant". He was basically working as a consultant so must have been on a good pay rate! Interestingly, as I walked through town at 12.20am on Jan 1st 2000, all the shops' burglar alarms were going off. I found it hilarious that they had been missed as there are so many, and of course, they all have digital programming panels!

    i think i heard about #13, but i didn't know it failed THAT badly!

    #10 reminds me of the "digital donkey" story i read about on "the daily WTF".

    #7 If that was the same Worm program i'm thinking of, which the book i read about it in called "The Arpanet Worm", it actually had at least FOUR ways of spreading!
    it also self-encrypted, making it harder to figure out.
    it was also supposed to NOT infect the same system multiple times, but THAT part didn't work, so it kept reproducing until it filled up all the memory and all the hard drive space!

    #3 reminds me of a book i read, called "the hacker crackdown".
    the story started with an update to a telephone network program.
    due to a simple error, the program would crash when it received a message saying that another program HAD REBOOTED AFTER A CRASH!
    this resulted in a chain reaction of crashes all over the country.
    no data was lost and no calls were dropped, it just took much longer for people's calls to connect.
    BUT, because it just happened to happen on a major holiday, people ASSUMED that it was caused by hackers, and demanded SOMETHING be done.
    so some government agency, i think it was the FBI, formed a "crackdown team" and started hunting hackers.
    one of the things they did was go into the headquarters of Steve Jackson Games and confiscate their computers, became they thought a game called "Cyberpunk" something was a threat.
    it's a tabletop game played with dice and paper!
    THEN they found out that a hacker had stolen a "valuable" document from the phone company and posted it on several public forums.
    the phone company said it was worth something like $70,000, an absurd number that included the cost of a mainframe computer and the monthly salaries of everyone who had helped write it!
    the book included a copy of the posted document, which had NOTHING to do with PROGRAMMING it was entirely "bureaucratese of surpassing opacity"!
    at the trial, the hacker's lawyer "gutshot" their case and "left their credibility in tatters" when he pointed out that ANYONE could use the phone company's FREE catalog to legally BUY that exact same document, NO QUESTIONS ASKED, for THIRTEEN DOLLARS !
