What my agency has been told.

Status: Investigating
We’ve determined that the elevated load isn’t driven by an overall increase in traffic, but by a large number of servers being unexpectedly unavailable, which is shifting load onto the remaining infrastructure. We’re investigating what’s causing these servers to become unavailable while we work to safely return them to service.Maybe they should try asking copilot why all those serves are unavailable.
Copilot is down too :-D
Is Clippy alright? Is he safe?
I don’t think anyone has heard from Clippy. I’m really worried right now.
No, that’s normal.
“Hey Cortana, why are we so bad at this?”
Maybe it’s time to impose restrictions on spam emails? I gave up deleting stuff a long time ago. Maybe less servers will be needed.
Something something paired core routers went down during audit tasks in AMER and EMEA knocking 2 AZs offline at the same time. Automation did what automation do and eff it all up. Now it takes all hands on deck to untangle it.
The internal messaging is nuts.
“You’re absolutely right, turning those servers off as a cost-cutting effort was a mistake, and has caused more problems than it has solved. I’m still learning, so I appreciate your understanding and patience 🙏”
Copilot shit itself as well
BGP? It’s probably BGP.
Is it fair to assume that any software failures moving forward are caused by vibecoding? 😅
I would like to think so
load balancers are just turned into total load takers.
I see you have enterprise experience doing load balancing using DNS.
i wanted to make a crude glory hole joke but could not think of one good enough. also yes.
I’m really glad Microsoft did all that work turning Outlook into a live service web wrapper that can’t function offline because now when they do something stupid I basically get the day off.
Keep fucking up Microsoft.
Very true. Today was a very focused coding day.
Loved it
[caused by a] large number of servers being unexpectedly unavailable
This is basically just the definition of what an outage is. No shit, Sherlock.
Have they tried throwing more vibe-codes slop at the problem? Or laying off all the workers…?
Are we already at the point where they’ve fired so many engineers to be taken over by AI that they can’t fix it by themselves anymore?
Fuck Microsoft
A cog sucker director at my company was saying just two days ago how we should copy Microsoft way of replacing workers with AI and their products are working great lolololol
Microslop Outlook at work keeps blinking in the calendar view, and feels more unstable after each update.
I’m sure firing 25% of their workforce will help…
What’s it called now? Microsoft Copilot 365 Outlook?
Wow that is OLD and I’ve never seen it. Thanks
I love how evergreen that one has been
(New)
My bosses sent out an email informing people of the outage through Outlook… [facepalm]
Also, placing 5$ on it being a BGP issue.
Our IT is hamstrung so HR sent a text blast about the outage. Good thinking, hilarious failure.
Everbridge. Gotta diversify.
Its way more than Microsoft. Someone fucked up again lol.
Is it DNS? Is DNS again, isn’t it?
No idea. But i didn’t know how hard it is to work when no one can check emails and calendars lol.
It’s the AI preparing to issue its demands
What is affected other than Microsoft?
Microsoft, Amazon, X, Reddit, Meta, Salesforce, several AI platforms, gaming platforms, some ISPs… Everyone’s having a rough go of it today.
Zoom, Starlink, Google, Service Now, AWS, AT&T to name a few.
Removed by mod
Hoping teams goes down too.
Removed by mod
You should be able to both change it and turn it off everywhere lol, unless for some godforsaken reason they even can disable those options via GP
Our company relies pretty heavily on teams, apparently. Someone (regional operations director) asked me if I saw their teams message. I told him I exit out as soon as it opens and have never used it in 4 years. Email me or call me like an adult.
That’s insane to me.
I don’t want phone calls, and I certainly don’t really care for emails, way over used.
As a person that got used to being online with IRC and Usenet, I gotta say Teams (as a pain in the ass as it is) is the best way to communicate (if that is the chat type tool you have).
You don’t have to respond right away, you have the information collected in chat channels, you can bring in others into the chat.
But most importantly: it is the only one that makes sense with asynchronous remote work.
A phone call? I tell people I do not have a phone anymore, there is no number to call. Why would you want interruption?
I dont like calls either. I have to send back documents, email is 99% of the comms i use. Teams worked in a previous role that was constant group work on a single thing.
I have to send back documents,
You guys still passing around documents? I try and put a stop to that as soon as I see it.
I buy and sell things, so yes. Constantly.
Except, also no calls. They’re horribly jarring and often interrupt the workflow.
Yeah, I shouldnt have included calls. I hate calls
In settings, I set my notify sound to one called “vibe”. Seriously saved my sanity.
What about https://m.youtube.com/shorts/8AzdptjcJmY
It did for a bit here
We’re learning about cloud services SO MUCH today.
At least emails retry I guess
It’s only downtime if you take 24h+ to fix it, otherwise it’s just slow e-mails.
I only have email from before 1pm and it’s 723pm right now.
Lol … this is how the AI takeover starts
First we get inconvenienced by having a few things shut down in our office, then we start seeing pieces of the internet fall apart … once we start seeing memes being made about it all … the nuclear weapons have already launched and we only have about 40 minutes before we realize that the end has already started.
Some of us will just see the bright white flash and shock wave.
Most of us will start getting mad because the internet isn’t working any more, no TV, no radio and we won’t know about the apocalypse until we step outside and start asking other confused people about what happened.
Your email is down for the day.
Calm down.
The best part is my works email is down for the day. Mine is fine.
Makes me very happy.
Right?!
I missed a meeting? How would I know! Perfect!
My tiny ass email servers working great. It so strange that this is the fourth major outage this year.
Some of us will just see the bright white flash
And I’ll be running directly towards it.
Helicoptering my dick at the shockwave
Going outside and talking to people!? What a horrible future!
My inbox has never been so quiet.
