The MA was up this morning. Hitech was running the severs via a generator during the outages.

I may be incorrect, but Texas power is in its own kind of weird independent Texas power grid.

ERCON is a disaster.

Weird 3rd world, Communist Russia era mixed grid. Unless you’re in El Paso, then your tied into a modern grid that can handle cold weather like the rest of the country.

And, there's a modem grid to support your connection to the internet.   :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :bhead :bhead :bhead :bhead
