Michael Whitaker had only been in the role for a year but the SpaceX chief accused him of “harassment.”

Summary

FAA Administrator Michael Whitaker resigned on Jan. 20, leaving the agency leaderless amid a major aviation crisis.

His departure followed months of clashes with Elon Musk, who criticized the FAA for imposing $600,000 in fines on SpaceX and called for Whitaker’s resignation.

Musk accused the FAA of obstructing space exploration.

Whitaker’s exit comes as the FAA faces air traffic controller shortages and a major runway collision investigation.

      Technically this is a keyboard function, not an OS function. Can you install different keyboards on Apple?

        You can, but I wouldn’t. Whenever I’ve looked at the permissions they want to send all key presses to a server. Like installing a key logger.
