Water Main Break Floods Dallas Data Center

Posted by Soulskill on from the five-thousand-hats-worth dept.

miller60 writes "IT systems in Dallas County were offline for three days last week after a water main break flooded the basement of the Dallas County Records Building, which houses the UPS systems and other electrical equipment supporting a data center in the building. The county does not have a backup data center, despite warnings that it faced the risk of service disruption without one."

    In Texas, we are proud of our faith.

    Which is incredibly funny, especially considering that pride is considered one of the deadly sins (along with lust, greed, gluttony, and several others that Texans are well known for). Apparently too many of you are too busy thumping your chests about how you are such good Christians to even stop to consider what it really means to be a good Christian.
