Punk Punk is an umbrella term:
They varied considerably, but all have one of the following in common with cyberpunk:
- A world built around a particular technology that is pervasive and extrapolated to a highly sophisticated level.
- A gritty or transreal urban style.
- A cyberpunk-inspired approach to exploring social themes within a Speculative Fiction setting.
The numbers on fuelwatch have rolled over for the new day now but when I was looking last night there was around 5-10% variation within each day but also a 15-20% price drop from Tuesday to Wednesday. By min-maxing across both days I could a min that was 25% lower than the max.
The range would be much less impressive if we only had access to a single days prices.
For a pretty extreme example consider, as you say, a large 25-gal tank, and filling up from dry twice a week, at an average of $0.10/gal non-optimal price: you pay an annual premium of $260 bucks not to drive yourself batty hunting for pennies, and burning at least a tiny bit more fuel to do it.
Since 2001 here in WA we have a system where petrol stations have to lock in their price for a day by announcing it the afternoon before. The highlights used to be mentioned on the local news and newspaper (maybe they still are, who knows?). But more importantly they all get published on https://www.fuelwatch.wa.gov.au/ so its pretty trivial to visit the site in the afternoon and check the stores along the commute home, plus you can also compare their tomorrow price to see if you should wait until then.
Looking at that site right now I can see 25% variance across my commute without even considering a detour. Its a pretty handy system.
So, this joke?
These guys sell a physical tracker so there must be some interest in the concept.

The feature only appears if both devices in the conversation have it.
I always thought of SMS as a bit like regular mail. (i.e. the message handed to the network with some addressing label with no feedback for the sender)
But this implies that there is some kind if handshake occurring between the devices, how does it really work?
As a non-american I had to look up the branding terms:
My picks are looking pretty dated right now.
Anyone got any recommendations from the last 20 year?
Edit:
If you count Cartoon Network cartoons outside of the Cartoon Cartoon era i would add
This last one was a little rough in patches but I really liked the sitcom format for these characters.
Using another app is what triggers the issue.
You can always just check that a carriers bands are supported by the hardware yourself.
I’m tired of all these “pass the torch” movies,
Its the obvious way to start a legacy sequel trilogy.
Usually the old cast/characters just aren’t capable of new adventures of the same kind the made the franchise popular.
Of course Jurassic World tried to do it differently by just setting a new story in the same world but the invited then old cast for the third film which was gratuitous. A scene where a small group of people sneak past a killer dinosaur loses it edge when its a small crowd. Then add the modern and legacy casts both needing their own arc and you get a film that over stays its welcome.

“Epic’s filing to the US Federal Court shows again that it simply wants the benefits of Google Play without having to pay for it,” Google’s spokesperson said. “We’ll continue to challenge the verdict, as Android is an open mobile platform that faces fierce competition from the Apple App Store, as well as app stores on Android devices, PCs, and gaming consoles.”
Is this the mocking? Its not a very good mocking!
Its a bit like Batman or Jurassic Park in that the media franchise encompasses both children’s products and media targeting an older audience.
I was running a web browser on an azure VM and clicked a reddit link in my search results only to see this page.
I’m not logging into my personal reddit account at work (or creating a work reddit account) so I just found my information elsewhere.
At 1.5 meters above your head it would take around half second to reach you and if you don’t move the initial collision would around 20 km/h. (To reach your feet would take 0.8 secs and it would be closer to 30 km/h
I picturing the trope where a gang is driving away from a robbery with someone take pot shots at pursuers through the back door of the truck. But instead of just shooting they can also drop cars to discourage pursuit.
This is a slightly different question (retrieving Voyager I) but an interesting read nonetheless.
Yes, they know. The message is asking the user to change from their default to Adobe Reader.
But which regions code are you referring to?
