SC Ports resumes most operations, but recovery just beginning

It will take the South Carolina Ports Authority a week or more to restore normal cargo flow through its network following the software malfunction that forced the closure of truck gates at Charleston's marine terminals and SC Ports’ two inland ports for most of two days, trucking companies that work the market said Tuesday.

SC Ports, in a statement late Tuesday afternoon, said cargo pickups and drop-offs had resumed at all marine terminals and Inland Port Greer. The statement did not mention Inland Port Dillon, but a spokesperson for the port authority said the facility remained closed. (paywall)

CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - Traffic on Interstate 526 was at a standstill near the Don Holt Bridge Wednesday afternoon as semi-trucks are trying to get to the port terminals.

The South Carolina Ports Authority reported software problems Sunday night and was shut down throughout the day Monday. The ports reopened late Tuesday afternoon. Wednesday was the first full day of the port terminals being open.

An unspecified “software issue”...

I'm guessing ransomware.

I thought we were supposed to reach “The Singularity” by 2024.

Instead we have “The Bugularity” where thing are breaking due to tech failure and computer bulls*#t.

Blackbeard’s Ghost is probably making a second run on blockading the port for old time’s sake....by frying the software this time

Are these ports owned/operated by the CCP? Many are, and have been for years via CCP-controlled companies.

That port operated for hundreds of years with no computers. Now close it down, can’t operate without it....
