This is crazy. I stopped for gas just now having no idea what was happening. It’s out. People here told me they’d been to other stations and found the same. pic.twitter.com/7LDVdUXPo4
Wow!
Thank you, EBH, for the linked information. So much misinformation out there when these events happen.
Have a nice rest of your day :)
“still use paper tape”
Very fragile. Yet more backups required.
“Ah, no. That’s just it. Colonial doesn’t *have* backups from what I’m hearing. They cheaped out.”
Backups don’t cost anything. Cheaping out is not a thing here.
They may not be perfectly up to date, but there are always backups.

I drive a 1985 chevy Scottsdale. Airbags? What airbags?
You can’t corrupt paper tape, so highly secured systems still use them.
How many feet of paper tape does it take to load a GigaByte?
[I can remember loading in a few Bytes onto an eeprom to “fix” some stuff]
Though I have some, I try to dodge the GM stuff....
YMMV ;-)
“there’s a system level requirement missing if the system is this vulnerable.”
Sounds like the Company personnel don’t have a thorough understanding of their System. Actuator/Sensor Hardware and however many levels of software they have.
No toilet paper, no ammunition, no gas, as soon as the beer goes they will drive Pelosi, Schumer, Joe and Hoe out with pitch forks.
Most every station from Gainsville, GA to Blairsville GA was out of gas this afternoon. What few stations that still had gas were from 25 to 45 cents a gallon higher with long lines. The one Walmart we stopped at was much like the ones you described. That station still had gas with long lines and the price was up .35 cents from last week.
FWIW, the “esteemed scumbag governor kemp” suspended the GA state gas tax-temporarily... Like that pathetic act will help with supply.
Excellent. Thanks!
You are so bad.
I love that about you.
YOU ARE TOTALLY CORRECT!!! I believe the LORD has removed His hedge of protection from over this nation for its rejection of Him, for our horrible sins of approving homosexual marriage, abortion, porn, all our other gross sins. He is JUDGING AMERICA and He is DOING IT NOW!! With the removal of His mercy and grace over the NATION (He still does it for individuals), I believe He is saying this is what you wanted and THIS IS WHAT YOU WILL GET!!! I think we are in serious trouble. I believe America is going to get slammed hard and soon. All these crazy weather patterns, all the other stuff. I believe God is allowing these things. Satan is having a holiday destroying God’s very last Christian nation on this earth. We’re done. The end is in sight. I simply keep looking up for our Blessed Hope of His soon appearing. THAT is my daily prayer, several times a day!! Peace brother.
You damn’ skippy! I may be coming down to your neck of the woods solo. Leaving the GF behind. Not sure I’ll be going back to Hellinois. :-)
