Democrat Leftists cannot govern because they don’t know how the real world actually works.

“The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said it experienced a computer outage and was working to fix the problem.”

Betcha they got hacked and just won’t admit it.

As an IT person these types of system failures fascinate me, so I rummaged around the FAA website a bit.

In reading the PDFs one thing that struck me was the vagueness of where the NOTAM database actually resides. There are references to the “NOTAM System computer” (singular) or “NS computer” (singular) and that’s it.

The database is probably small by modern standards, so it might actually be a single computer, perhaps periodically backed up to a second one. I wonder if the main computer died and the backup didn’t work, possibly because nobody tested the recovery procedure for a long time.

Given all the other “coincidences” we have seen in recent months .... I have a strong suspicion that something else is going on here. What could that something else, be?
Republican majority in Congress...
Biden found to be in possession of Top Secret documents ...
Friday the 13th coming in two days .... (LOL)
Elon Musk dumping more Twitter revelations every other day ...
USA is going to run out of money again (unless Congress acts) ...
Janet Yellen is going to stay in that Secretary of the Treasury job a while longer ...
Russia is destroying Ukraine. Or the other way around if you trust Saint Zelensky ...
Airspace shutdown is a very big deal. Maybe Southwest Airlines is not so evil and incompetent as previously reported?
