It was a thing back in the day. Its just that the day was 30 odd years ago.

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.
The idea is quite old:
Shortly after the 1859 publication of Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species, the British biologist Thomas Henry Huxley proposed that birds were descendants of dinosaurs. He compared the skeletal structure of Compsognathus, a small theropod dinosaur, and the “first bird” Archaeopteryx lithographica (both of which were found in the Upper Jurassic Bavarian limestone of Solnhofen). He showed that, apart from its hands and feathers, Archaeopteryx was quite similar to Compsognathus.
But having fossil evidence is quite young:
One of the earliest discoveries of possible feather impressions by non-avian dinosaurs is a trace fossil (Fulicopus lyellii) of the 195–199 million year old Portland Formation in the northeastern United States. Gierlinski (1996, 1997, 1998) and Kundrát (2004) have interpreted traces between two footprints in this fossil as feather impressions from the belly of a squatting dilophosaurid.
Technically true.
You are right, having the password in the same vault does mean that if the vault itself is compromised they have both. Guess I could move the TOTP to a separate authenticator app but the only other apps I have a mobile only and there are times I need to login without having hands on my phone.
I guess the time based aspect of the TOTP makes it a little more resistant to having someone monitor my keystrokes or clipboard or whatever and capture a relatively long lived secret like my password. So I guess its a comprise I’m willing to make.
I generate a TOTP with my password manager, it stores all my other login details and keeps it simple.
it’s not settled that releasing as many micro plastics as possible is fine as long as it would happen eventually anyhow
Is anyone making that argument? My thoughts are that we should reduce plastics (both macro amd micro) entering the ecosystem.
As 22% ends up as litter and directly enters the ecosystem, and 49% is put in landfill (which may enter the ecosystem later) is seems using less plastic is the best solution to this problem.
Edit: I forgot the link:
I might be missing the point but does it matter if it breaks down into micro plastics over 3 years or 13?
If single use plastics are destined to become micro plastics does the time scale matter?
These guys sell a physical tracker so there must be some interest in the concept.

Ideally where funds are invested would be decided without fear or favor.
Yep, app not found.

edit: but got 22 on Snake, which is nice.
I think this video is a extreme example of the problem.
Its a one hour video bookended with statements that the author doesn’t have time to make a better video.
0:00:15: Now I’ve written a lengthy script but I have no time to actually read it out correctly from memory so I think I’m just going to use it as notes and talk from the top of my head instead.
…
1:07:15: I’m kind of sad that I can’t do this review like better technically cuz i can’t afford to spend you know a month editing this video.
Account status and points totals could be viewed as essential communication.
I used a service that used email as MFA, but they also used the same mail service for marketing. When I opted out of marketing they stopped sending me my login emails :/
If you spend any time on YouTube sponsor block is handy
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.
It wouldn’t surprise me if they also could execute code.
They sat on external blue for 5 year before it was stolen and they disclosed the vulnerability to Microsoft.

I don’t see why we wouldn’t assume there is always something similar in their armoury.
All good, The comment I replied to has been edited to specify monotheism after I wrote my reply.
That’s only one (narrow) definition of a god.
To take a well known example, is Loki “good”?
But which regions code are you referring to?
