Psst. Hey, kid. I've got some 7.62x39 if you're up for it. Or are you more of a 9MM guy? I can help you there too.

Well, it's not like I expect Microsoft to say "We got hacked by Russian bots" even if that was what happened.

Indeed. I read the root cause statement this morning and rolled my eyes.

In reality, most of these events are due to laziness, incompetence, or lack of proper funding and priority. Or some combo of those. It's not a good look to say that in the public RCA.

FAA's NOTAM system is down last I checked... As is the ATCSCC Advisories database server apparently.

It was responding to queries when I checked just prior to posting the post you quoted, but nothing on the ground stop. ATCSCC is partially responding but gives no indication that it's down other than an empty query response. If they can't put in some kind of fault detection or even a heartbeat to report when their sole means of disseminating something as <supposedly> important as a nationwide ground stop takes a dump then the system is not trustworthy. Start an effing call tree for all I care, and if you're not going to tell me about it through what we are led to believe are 'official channels' then don't hammer me for not following your unwritten double-secret probation rules.

Nauga,
whose tax dollars are not at work
 
My flight canceled. So yippie, another night in Phoenix. Now I get to try one of those fancy driverless cars since there's no rentals available.

Not joking about anyone here that might be heading eastbound via GA. Would love to hitchhike home.
