Here's weird news!

[MrZippy]

Microsoft is having a nation wide outage for MS365 Outlook, Hotmail, and other Microsoft services! I thought I was going nucking futz!
Actually, I was wondering if it will affect MSFS 2020/24?

Notsure if it's related, but trying to use the GUIs in MSFS a few minutes ago were like wadding through mud. Very slow. Type a command and it took a moment for it to register. It's not normally like that.

Once in the aircraft, things were normal.

Yep, Outlook is down and I have not been getting spam messages from Outlook or Hotmail users all day.

 

[MrZippy]

Yeah, thought I was nutz there for a while! It's all over the news now.

I'm glad I use nothing Microsoft (other than Win 10) and I have been trouble free. Email works (Thunderbird), browser works (Firefox), no problem!

My desktop versions of Office 2007 & Office 2010 are working just fine too.

ohoh, we're completely O365 at work. This is going to be a helluvah day!

They're saying it's not due to a cyber attack, so I'm wondering what gross incompetence is behind this.

Probably their own security update has taken out their own servers for a change!

Without mail, it's a bit of a slow day at work!

Actually they pushed an untested update without the possibility of a roll back... That is criminal neglect IMHO.

Criminal Neglect could become the new name for Artificial Intelligence, if it turns out that AI created the update and installed it unchecked...
