Yes, Bitcoin has turned into more of an investment strategy than an actual currency. Unless the system is designed to drive down transaction fees, it will never be a viable currency.
This doesn't really make sense. The second stage appears to have functioned normally. An airline pilot flying over Africa actually took a picture of the stage performing its normal fuel dump. It does this prior to deorbiting into the Indian Ocean, after the normal 1 1/2 orbits. If there was a problem with the satellite releasing, they would have keep it in orbit a few more times to attempt to release it. Particularly since the second stage was still functioning properly and had enough fuel to require a fuel dump.
The second stage appears to have functioned normally, making the normal 1 1/2 orbits. It released excess fuel over Africa as normal, which an airline pilot was able to take a picture. It would then deorbit into the Indian Ocean.
There is no low Earth orbit where the satellite would orbit once every 24 hours. That is a geosynchronous orbit and they are very very high orbits. We would have noticed if the Falcon 9 had flown into a geosynchronous transfer orbit.

Don't worry, we will soon invent the replicator and you can make all you want. Of course, it will be powered by a coal fired electrical plant.
Is Intel developing new chips that don't have this problem? Are they going to be slower, too?
Then they will have to listen to all the nonsense my kids make it do on a daily basis. It will drive them mad.
Bad business case. If everyone is getting rid of their cars and taking Lyft, where are they going to get cheap drivers to work for Lyft?
Do you think they can be any more rude?
Yes! We need to move to a much better God-forsaken shithole!
Soon it will take over.
No, he's not there, he's here.
Wikileaks has to have money somewhere. Ecuador can tap into that to recoup the money.

Who elected them? Is there an app for that?
It's just alien music, we are just not hip enough to understand...
Not long term, but you think they would have given it another orbit or two for say, 90 more minutes, to try something.

I said launch, not lunch!

People who work for SecureDrop tend to kill themselves, also a bit strange.

We need one standard that supports all use cases.
Rumors going around that the payload failed after releasing from the second stage. Any truth to those rumors?
The Neil Young album?
Ever think it may be named after the Neil Young album?
Hitler was able to launch reusable spacecraft better than Musk? That is news.
Yes, we will all need to go back to Windows NT
