Every policy of this government shows us their worldview: other people, including children, have no value but economic value. Drive everywhere. Eat slop. Pay more for everything. Learn the right words, not how to think. Don't worry about your health or your neighbours, that doesn't generate revenue

why don't we get this headline about National, ACT or NZF for open corruption, internal backstabbing and accelerating social murder?

Neat! So NZTA confirms that Tesla have no special approval to release "full self-driving" in New Zealand, and that there has been no advice sought or provided regarding whether the product is safe to deploy in New Zealand.

Good luck if you're sharing the road with these things.

Photo of the Wellington Phoenix club crest patch that has been stitched onto their new black and yellow away kit made by their new kit & apparel partner Dynasty Sports for the A League Mens 2025/26 season

The swing tag says the shirt is made from 22 recycled plastic bottles 🤯 Big fan of the club crest patch but the Dynasty Sports & A League logos are not sublimated like the rest of the jersey so will see how long those small letters last 🫣

I am once again telling people, voting Green is the only way we are going to ever get out of this mess of neoliberalism Labour & National are so eager to stick with. Tweaks around the edges isn’t what we need. We need BOLD changes.

This is a weird and very confusing thing to launch with a half-assed CGT. Labour didn’t need to do this but they’re too weak on having the balls to sell the policy to the public they needed to create a way for people against it to look almost as heartless as Labour is being. Middle of the road shit

If you've been following this whole story, it's quite scary & insane the levels of corruption that has been uncovered in the NSW Police, ABC Australia & Australian politicians by friendlyjordies www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZBQ...

They're also straight up marketed as being made of ethically sourced recycled plastic bottles so micro plastic go brrrrr 🫣😅 I guess I've been wearing football jerseys literally my entire life so I was already screwed 😆

I'm so excited for something so small. The football team I support, Wellington Phoenix, changed apparel supplier for this season and for the first time in years there's an actual embroidered club logo on the away kits, of which we are also getting 2 of for the first time. It's the little things.

My thoughts on Galaxy XR? Lol. That headset is DOA. Price is ridiculous, not including controllers is even more ridiculous. If the big selling point is Gemini then wait for the Smart Glasses or Display Glasses version.

Genuinely horrifying malevolence. NZ is being pulled into violence and complicity in Trump administration crimes. We didn’t ask for this and it’s not in our name.

Technology used to work until the “best and brightest” started figuring out how to maximise ad revenue.

If political violence is never ok why are right wing governments allowed to cut benefits to the poor, cut funding for disabled people & outright lie about their justifications, but people on the left can't say it like it is because "that's extremist language"? Judith Collins should be 6 feet under 🤬

I’ve just done some more Googling and apparently you can set one up with a NZ Apple ID but you can’t download Apps but can sign into a separate account to get Apps. This just made me tempted again 🫣 Gonna wait until mid November, see if Valve announces anything 😏

There’s a free application, shutup10++, that lets you disable all the shitty windows stuff with a series of checkboxes.
It even tracks if windows rolls anything back between updates and lets you reverse the changes with a click.
I can personally recommend shutup10++ if you need to stick with windows

I'm glad that Apple giving up on reinventing windowing apps on iPad and giving it proper multitasking has also seemingly resulted in them giving in to putting a touchscreen on Macbook

Hipkins would say some BS like “ThAt’S eXtReMiSt rHeToRiC” 🤦‍♂️ I wish people would stop giving them the benefit of the doubt when it comes to actually meeting the moment. They can’t & won’t.

GenAI truly was the worst technology to come along at this moment.

An energy and water guzzler when we most urgently need to take climate action.

A disinformation machine as our journalism fails.

A bias machine as fascism takes root.

A job killer in a cost of living crisis.

Success comes in the shape of a pyramid. There’s only one PM and one Air NZ CEO at a time. Most people are working to pay bills and exist. We have over-index on the idea that everyone can slowly work through the steps to success and eventually be on top. It’s a myth.

My favourite feature of the new Navigator UI on Horizon OS 81, finally, after many years, there is now an “update all” button in headset to start all updates

“We HaVeN’t DeCiDeD oN oUr PoLiCy YeT” 😫🥴

I honestly think people have forgotten the simplicity in buying a domain & just redirecting it to wherever, hell, even a linktree is fine. Why do candidates make people go searching? It seems so easy, I can't see any laws about wording, just sizes around 70km+ zones

Something I don't really understand with election signs, there is never anywhere to look up that candidate, there's no website or anything on signs, it's just their name, sometimes what they're running for, sometimes a slogan and almost always, the word vote. Why has that become such a thing?

Government mulls possible sale of Chorus shares The Finance Minister says with the completion of the ultra-fast broadband fibre initiative, there's no longer a policy reason for the Crown to own Chorus.

This, THIS is economic vandalism. Absolutely insane take that there’s no longer a policy reason to own our national fibre network, I’d go as far as to say it’s a matter of national security that we own it. Last time we had asset sales, we were promised lower power prices, look how that turned out

Valve operates on Valve time so while entering mass production is good the rumour was if it gets announced in September it ships this year but if it isn’t then it’s shipping early next year, so I personally think next year release is more likely. Build up inventory.

There is *literally* only one side inciting & escalating political violence & almost all NZ msm are claiming it's the other way around

This is the fascist turn happening in real time. Sorry to break it to you - a bunch of propagandists & decision makers across media & business have chosen sides

Immediately took the opportunity after I posted this to actually take a week off and I am getting so much life admin done and it's not even lunchtime yet 🥳 Even scheduled a small medical procedure for tomorrow which I've been needing to get for yeeeears (getting dozens of skin tags removed 😫)

Taking benefits for teens away right when the govt wants to ramp up the military 🧐 #nzpol
