    I believe that if America has been more proactive, we could have either limited or delayed the infection. As I remember it, the infection spread from Asia to America and hit Europe after us on the East Coast, at least that what I remember hearing from the reports.

    So yes, if we had been more proactive and developed a response much more in line with the Ebola outbreak, i believe it could have been delayed or lessened.









  • Homie, I work in IT. I graduated from college with a degree in network security. So please consider that experience as your read my response.

    This is a problem caused by companies putting in the minimum of effort to secure their systems and no effort to have a valid server back up strategy.

    I’ll try and keep things high level since I don’t know if you’re in the field or not but you sound like you aren’t. In short, a driver (something low level used for an operating system to interact with a piece of hardware usually) got released which was full of bunk data. That caused a blue screen of death. This is a fixable situation you need to reboot your computer into a mode called “safe mode” and delete the bunk driver.

    That’s not the problem though, the problem is when you use another piece of security software called bitlocker to enceypt your enterprise equipment AND servers. You can’t reboot into safe mode without a decryption key which most companies store on a piece of server software (called active directory) on a server … which is also using both crowdstrike and bitlocker.

    Your data is inaccessible and the best option is to restore from a backup which as we’re seeing, few people have.

    This isn’t a cyber attack. This is human incompetence and business greed.









  • If you need 4k you’re going to need a shit ton of storage. If you go for the good quality profile 4ks you’re looking at 50GB easily per file.

    Sonarr and Radarr can fetch downloads, yes. You’ll need to configure your indexers and then you’ll need to set up your download clients. I use a torrent server and sabnzbd.

    You’ll need a graphics card that can handle transcoding 4k I’m not sure which is best. Ram and CPU won’t be the biggest concerns for you.
