It never ceases to amaze me just how bad at people he is. It’s like he’s glitching all the time. I suspect at this point he has negative charisma and he’s zeroed it with a heap of modifiers.

there is a lovely adult female springer spaniel for sale on TM and I am having to tell myself that I don't need a second dog.

god forbid you want a coffee at 3:05pm...

Yeah same here - like I do at least 60% of my shopping at stores other than the big 2 but not everything is cheaper and if you dont like shopping its a pain (I've been known to visit 3-4 markets in a single shopping trip for groceries)

Unfortunately the Kirikiriroa ones aren't that much cheaper (if at all) for veg and meat - the good stuff though they are much cheaper...

Once upon a time they were much cheaper though - especially for meat, not so much these days (last 2 years or so)

given that the current govt has two tails and they're both wagging the dog, I think that would be a bigger issue than some hypothetical straw person argument.

I wonder which round of cost cutting led to this particular piece of institutional knowledge being forgotten. The people who look after old buildings normally have a fairly good idea where it is, even if the bosses don’t want to know.

In the 90’s jockeys called this cocaine

That was my thinking

Yeah I took that out couple of years ago, I think it’s still there on google earth. 🙂

Yes. Combination keep garden alive during hose pipe bans and emergency water supply

It’s so small, I can’t imagine letting fireworks off in it now.

Photo of a back garden, under the large grapefruit tree there is a 2000l tank that is pretty much invisible as the taker of the photo intended when the plans were made.

New tank showing off its where’s Wally skills.

Minister Shane Jones looks to coal as businesses grapple with gas shortage Big industrial gas users met with Minister Shane Jones to discuss the problems with securing an affordable supply.

If only we had a program to decarbonise industry and free it from dependency on limited supplies of fossil gas. A government would have to be really stupid to disestablish such a program, wouldn't it? www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

My first contract in Guildford was for ICL.

even if AI was accurate, which it isn't

PHD students wouldn't necessarily be the group that would give you easy access to simple to understand versions of the information you're searching for

while this is clearly hopium, the problem with PhD level experts is that they can use language and ideas in ways that are very specific to their fields and if climate change/mRNA/Covid taught us anything these words do not mean the same as what the average 5th form science C student means.

#lazyweb - other than wordpress, wix or squarespace can someone recommend any website hosting platforms.

Thanks

This is the beginning of the decline…

The hours I spent going through paper catalogs as a kid. Looking at all the possibilities. Hunting and fishing still do regular drops of paper catalogs, for free.

‘Crazy’ safety and ingredient label rules are the next target in red tape war The Government says New Zealand’s “30 crazy labelling laws” are driving up your supermarket bill.

When we see things like this, there's reason to be concerned that some madly grinning clown is coming to kill you. But, and however, as with many ACT announcements there's probably lots less to this than meets the eye (remember his whole "unapproved medicine advertising is now legal!" lie?)

this comes back to where does this ideology come from - and its not NZ, most of this is recycled US stuff. They dont really even understand what it is they are asking. (or dont care and are doing it for the ragebait)

Those sound like very royal traits

Someone needs to show this to our government.

In my head I hear the start of some Victorian era version of the new phone who dis meme…

This has always been the “benefit” of RUCs they have always benefited vehicles that are less efficient.

A 2000 litre slim water tank. It’s rectangular, 500mm deep, 2400mm long and 1900mm high.

The latest step in project climate resilience unlocked.

How can private companies make a profit if they don’t milk the public purse?

they don't speak English in Finland so their ideas wont work here.
