Why do you assume 15ms is a single hop? One way speed of light delay to 550 kilometers is ~2 ms. Satellite will likely not be directly overhead which will add to that, but a 15 ms single-bounce latency seems possible.
SpaceX has actual data, as the two test satellites have been in roughly that orbit. Worst-case latency will be higher.
For reference, one way speed of light delay to geostationary is at least 120 ms.
If the book is good, why would they wait 20 years to publish it, and forego profits from the next 20 books? It takes time and money to generate interest in an author; one hit wonders are fairly rare.
I've been eyeing the LG V10... open removable back, so I can get an extended battery, SD card. The T-Mobile version has a Cyanogenmod port, but I don't see one for Verizon. Some of the other LGs have slide out batteries; removable so you can have multiple, but limited volume so you can't upgrade the capacity much.
It's probably to do with smaller notebooks and their lack of a numpad... I had one user that failed to log in a number of times and it turned out that they had last changed their password on a notebook where numlock was turned on at login and some of the alpha keys got remapped.
...but discrete soundcards, especially external ones, are still alive and well if you record. The noise floor of internal sound cards hasn't gotten that much better (a PC is very noisy RF environment), and if you need mic preamps, quarter inch jacks, optical in, etc, they generally don't fit on a PCI card or laptop.
But for general gaming or home theater use? Nope. Send the audio out over the HDMI out, or SPDIF for DVI/VGA rigs, and let the amp sort it out.
Hauppauge WinTV DCR-2650 Infinitv line (I own one of the PCIe quad tuners; works well in my Mythtv box, but depends on the CCI bits set by your cable company.)
It's a crapshoot depending on the CCI settings of your cable provider, but yes, they do. I have the quad tuner from Ceton, and from Verizon FIOS I get locals, expanded basic, and some of the premium channels with my mythtv backend. I recently rebuilt the box; it's currently running on Ubuntu raring, with an AMD A10 and 5x3TB in a ZFS array.
You'll also need a listings provider; I use Schedules Direct, which just works but does charge.
-R C (Under linux, you'll only receive channels with no flags or the Copy Freely flag. In the absence of CCI flags, the Ceton tuner will also respect the old school analog (macrovision?) flags that are ignored by clear qam tuners.)

It's been supported by Win10 IoT for a while. The article is not specific on what is different in this release.

SpaceX's revised FCC filing calls for about 1.6k of the initial 4.4k constellation to be at 550km orbit. Brings the minimum latency down to 15ms, instead of 25-35ms.

I've seen a horse eat an entire McDonald's combo meal. She did had trouble with the soda and spilled most of it.
(She was also the one who loved twislers, and if she found them would eat them wrapper and all.)

Do not try to charge a lipo above *4.2* volts.
They haven't launched or attempted to launch ANY recovered boosters yet. The CRS-7 and Amos-6 boosters were new built.
There have been full length static fires of the recovered cores, however.

It's called Chip On Board and it is slightly cheaper and better performing than using a packaged IC.

Sometimes you can replace them with packaged equivalents during repair.

Cross between EE and CS. Someone who has been trained to understand both hardware and software. Fairly common in embedded design.
Some information on rebuilding a PWP. It's also the same the drive as used on the Famicon system in Japan.

There's a more active Famicon hacking scene around... you might look into a famicon drive and fdsloader.
