    In zooms all day? Try spicing it up by mangling your cliche phrases! "I don't have a horse in that fight" "Half of one, 6 dozen of another" "Too many chefs in the fire" "Let's not put the hearse before the car"

    A friend texted and said "your twitter is brutal this morning" Here's the thing. Between 2018 and 2021 CRWD would blatantly lie to their existing customers (of win agent) to not pursue Capsule8 for Linux. They would say they have a Linux agent that does what we do, except..
