      I knew of falcond as the service that makes my work mac run slow.

      Unfortunately, having a mac meant i didn’t get friday off unlike most of the rest of the company

      I’m a Formula One fan. The Mercedes team are sponsored by them. You see their logo every time you see an on board shot of the cars.

      I had no idea until this weekend.

      Oh, if you worked at a company that uses them (which is a lot of companies), you’d definitely be familiar with them as they hog up a ton of fucking CPU/disk. I basically had an entire CPU core dedicated to running their bullshit.
