A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Airports and some other stuff wouldnt have been an issue so i feel like it would be similar not much worse.

Crowdstrike is very entrenched in healthcare. Hospitals were routinely at capacity in 2020.

The outage this weekend probably killed some people due to disruptions in delivering care. It definitely would have then.
