NZ is exceedingly plain so I don't get that comment. Most are of the form 1337 Great North Road Pt. Chevalier Auckland 1002 You could even omit Auckland as it's implied by the simple 1000-series postcode. The property boom may hav

If it is a public square, then it is so because the majority of people choose to use it because of the controls and filtering and exclusion of "undesirables". If it's a company with a reach in billions that's because it

My favourite brainwave on UBI was to brand it a negative income tax. Would stymie a lot of the more traditional fiscal conservative arguments (albeit not going to counter the drive for regressive rates).

If you're saying there's no evidence in terms of accounting audit for money going to addicts on Skid Row then, well, good luck with that bar of evidence. I have seen him let the Whittaker family buy trolleys full of stuff from Wal

It may seem a bizarre tangent... but humour me: you don't know any of the members of Radiohead do you? Right town, time and age.

I'm echoing what others have said but as a Commonwealth citizen turned British citizen with a grandmother who was the same age but died last year, I can't help but feel an extended member of my family has passed. I am not a monarc

I think a lot about UI but have never thought about a temporally driven setting before. Great idea!

Or the author intended it for HR to read with the implicit critique "don't send me trash" (from their perspective of course, saying nothing about OP)

Agree. Really clickbait phrasing for a gas giant planet no less that has no chance of harbouring organic life ecosystems.

I was looking at this just last night and the story with Ubuntu is horrible. That's essentially going to be stuck on v3.4 for ten years because it's "a lot of work" to get into that distribution. You'd think an enti

Merits of this particular case aside, as it seems like it would be a generous good faith assumption, given your general statement, in your ideal world when do we start harbouring criminal suspicions on a process that happens to between one

There is definitely the concept of the anti-joke. Anti-humour has the wiki page. The sadly-late Norm Macdonald was a good proponent. Fwiw though I watched this after your post and I'd say that's not really the same. I'm not s

Can't believe they'd try to sue over that. For one, it's pretty much only critical of the Mowbrays themselves and I can't see anything in there that wouldn't be an honest opinion so safeguarded by NZ law. So it come

Yup you've got it. I believe one of the brothers bought the compound in NZ north of Auckland that Kim Dotcom lived in (and was raised in iirc). https://businessdesk.co.nz/article/the-life/my-net-worth-nic...

When a comment leads with a provable falsehood, that "the" COVID vax (already a rampant simplification) "only" reduces risk of a bad case, and that, by implication, there's no reduction in transmission or reduction
