I wonder if they’ll be able to tell how deep the rubble layer is.  Whether it’s entirely just rubble or there’s a larger more solid core that has attracted an outer layer

How often do rockets explode?

VA is way ahead of you. Our HOV’s are becoming HOT lanes with variable pricing! Allowing the single driver to choose to pay to use the lanes along with the free HOV folks.

After the damage we’ve inflicted, I’m sure the universe is thinking “oh you don’t get out of this that easy”

Used to have a credit card that would let me add ‘virtual’ card numbers with limits...and end dates.

use Fedex Boxes, then when full leave them on the porch for pirates to steal

Makes sense. From a pure Newtonian standpoint though, doesn’t the thrust down/inward require a force up/outward in response? obv it lacks the needed extra velocity to maintain it’s new orbit.  (and I realize this is probably fractions of very small distances - just curious)

I’d assume it’s still technically private so maybe not as well regulated?

Why not rig a system that shoots it out downwards and aides in boosting the station

Yeah, I wondered if the chutes were deployed purposefully. Seems like the chutes fired a split second before the left side tires blew and started the spin.

and miss out on those sweet sweet daily compounding impound fees?

yeah I’m thinking, I’m pretty sure Cities have a mechanism for moving stopped vehicles out of traffic lanes.

I had the same opinion when Hyundai first introduced it’s 10 yr warranty. The cars before that were absolute crap.

Eh, it’s an obvious condition of the scenario that will have been planned for.

Which is why a gov’t backed standards committee of private sector representatives provides the impetus of the private sector in making decisions.

The problem described is Apple having basically never used the standard charging ports.   So yeah as I said, sometimes, the market needs regulation to get itself in order.

new formats/standards are years in the making. There’s plenty of time for even plodding legislatures to address changes before anything even gets to viability.

in the words of Sheryl Crow:

yeah, 2.5% was where we locked it in during the drops. Just stupid cheap.
