The chart says it excludes housing/property. How is NZs per capita net worth that high?

It only took Apple 18 YEARS, but I can finally set the snooze duration on my alarm in iOS 26

Here is Australia, if the item is over $100 in value, you currently canโ€™t sent it to the US. I understand other mail services in other countries have similar suspension in place

We often joke that the official weather forecaster down here (BoM) just uses a random forecast generator. Itโ€™s comical how off it often it is.

Stop referring to him as a โ€œdisgraced financierโ€. Heโ€™s a convicted child sex offender. They arenโ€™t seeking documents on his finance deals here.

I've been to Mac and back. Sorry, MacOS is just awful to use, especially as a prolific multitasker. MacBook battery life however, especially on the newer M chips is just unbeatable.

Todayโ€™s episode is broken on supercasts. Itโ€™s the into from an old episode and 1 minute long

Historically nearly a million containers of goods landed in the US every month. A small amount of goods smuggling perhaps, but not enough to account for even a fraction of a percent.

I prefer the look of the glass, but if this one broke tomorrow Iโ€™d replace it with the one in the link I sent you

We have the glass version of this (which I donโ€™t think they make anymore) and has served us well for 5+ years now. www.sageappliances.com/fr-fr/produc...

If at least one party left feedback you can usually find it that way.

Not sure about this. If they take them to this new US Territory, then it would be subject to US law under US court jurisdiction, and Iโ€™m pretty sure they donโ€™t want that.

They are like $2 each here in Australia, when they have any (which isn't often)

Unless the source is Breitbart, OAN or Newsmax, theyโ€™ll just call it fake news.

Do you have Revolut in NZ? I've used that in the US and Japan and rate them. My brother used Wise in SE Asia and AU before he moved here and said it was good.

Sheโ€™s the sweetest sick kid. Think sheโ€™s on the mend after a few days of fever now.

For Christmas this year Santa got me a vomiting child with a fever and the bill to replace the computer in my car transmission that died last week. And some chocolate.

The week before Christmas was not the ideal time for my carโ€™s gearbox to decide it didnโ€™t want to be a gearbox anymore

We stayed nearby in Ginza last year but no view of the station. Will have to remember this place for next trip!

Just changed NBN providers. Man that was easy. Submitted online and 10 mins later service changed over to the new provider and auto cancelled my service with the previous one
