Yes, Microsoft apps can cause a problem even in space.

    You would think that the absolute basic, minimum requirement for taking something on a space mission is that it complies with open standards.

    If you have standards compliant programs, it’s easy to set up a back-up client in case the primary doesn’t work. If your email is “Outlook” and you are tied to the outlook server and something breaks, there’s your single point of failure. Sucks to be you.

        What if the problem is DNS

          That’s impossible. They don’t even have that in space.

              Yeah I bet there is absolutely DNS in space, but that didn’t fit the joke, lol.

            Why not, aren’t they also handling https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timekeeping_on_the_Moon

            DNS would be the same logic. Maybe we should even have some higher levels than before. Name.country.moon.planet.star.

        Haha yeah, I use outlook at work as a webpage in LibreWolf in Linux, so even with open stuff on my local hardware I can definitely still have outlook issues.

        It’s easy to set up high-availability for servers running on the ground.

          Easy?

          And all problems are solved by high availability?
