TaggartListen, they called the ship Integrity, not Availability; what do you want from a government contract?

Rachel Rawlings@mttaggart They also dropped confidentiality by having astronauts type their unlock codes on camera.
@linuxandyarn 1/3 ain't bad!
Nazo@mttaggart It just completely blows my mind because the government already has its own email servers and clients, so why the frick are they even using that in the first place? They went from an already solved problem to adding half a billion new ones just because Microsoft told them it would be good?
NASA is the one government thing that is supposed to know to always always always focus on redundancy and reliability... What's next? Getting o-rings from a company that doesn't test them first?

@nazokiyoubinbou They got the O rings from Dunkin' Aerospace.
@bryanredeagle Lol. I wouldn't put it past them at this point...
I was hoping people would recognize the reference. A shuttle once exploded because of, of all things, o-rings. Tolerances on the high and low ends had been accepted too high and not fully tested in the real conditions they would be used in and thus the Challenger exploded. At least until recent times, NASA learned some very hard lessons about testing things very very thoroughly. I fear if those lessons are going to be relearned the hard way it could result in much more than e-mail problems.
Krupo@nazokiyoubinbou @bryanredeagle oh "IUnderstoodThatReference.gif"
ArchiveScribe@mttaggart Certainly not anything that works. Such is Microsoft.
John Anderson@mttaggart I'm more disturbed that you can get further from the Earth than any human in history and Outlook is still your problem.
why not wy@mttaggart have they tried restarting the capsule?
John Breen@mttaggart I don't know which is worse - the toilet being broken, or being forced to use Windows. @Devils_Rancher
Chris Vreeland@jab01701mid I’ve been listening to some of the comms chatter on YouTube and yesterday I heard one of them say “I can’t do that, the button is greyed out.” It was something minor, but still- yikes.
@Devils_Rancher "Open the POD bay door HAL !"
"I can't do that Dave, the button is greyed out"
"I can't do that Dave, the button is greyed out"
@jab01701mid For serious. “I’m sorry Dave, Windows is updating. Please do not turn off your computer.”
LabSpokane@mttaggart Will wait for my ride to the moon until they build the “Five Nines Uptime.”
Soldier of FORTRAN 
@mttaggart so youre telling me I need to go to fuckin space to get away from outlook?
Guillaume Ross@mainframed767 @mttaggart Yeah there used to be a submarine that could’ve saved me from Teams but…
@g @mttaggart uuuugh, imma going to mars to get away from teams
Saltmyhash@mttaggart Can’t imagine the lag for a Microsoft QuickAssist session 3,000 miles from Earth.
D. G. MarshallThere is a very old joke about how brave astronauts are, because they go into space in a craft built by the lowest bidder.
Pomegranate_Stew@mttaggart
They fixed one toilet and two more broke.
They fixed one toilet and two more broke.
Sharpe!@mttaggart Astronauts are weird. If my Outlook didn't work, I'd damn well wait before telling IT.
gunstick@mttaggart with zero Outlooks it would have worked.
