The FAA is finally phasing out floppy disks from air traffic control
What the coverage shows
Both outlets frame the story as the FAA moving away from floppy disks in air traffic control, with The Verge emphasizing that critical systems are still running on 3.5-inch disks and that Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced the effort. Engadget matches the basic news but is much briefer, reducing it to a simple upgrade frame. The divergence is mostly in tone and detail, with The Verge supplying the only specific context in the extracts.
