I’m not sue what to make of all this but when I see quotes like:
Turner says: “If we had to go through a normal consenting process, they just take so long, they’re so expensive, a project like this would really struggle.”
I can’t help but think of my teenagers whining when they don’t want to do a chore properly.
We have rules and processes for good reasons, it’s frustrating when it seems to be ‘cool’ to throw all this away because it’s inconvenient
I’m kinda shocked that a 7.5 ton car can be driven by anyone, but I guess a big part of that is the stupid trucks people keep buying
And a shame they slapped an age bracket on footpath pedalling
God damn that’s brazen…
Man this coalition has been incredible - what a wild ride this govt has been!
My scorn for this fuckwit increases every time I learn about him
Sounds about right
I stand corrected.
We’ll, technically I’m sitting on the bog, soo… I shit corrected
I can’t even see a Zeeland, clearly the whole thing is another Aussie prank and they should be kicked out for Insubordination
Yeah, it’s a drag.
And the gentailers all got removed/asked to be removed from oowerswitch and all spun up retailer fronts with various dubious value-addons.
It feels like fishing for an ISP or a phone plan - wading through upsell BS.
Yeah, that’s it.
Really doesn’t work with classic enterprise security models, but it’s extremely orientated to the Twitch and other folks - ewww…
…No? Most of the tracks on Mt Vic are really old.
Sure, they’ve built a bunch of new jump lines in the last 5 years, but the old ones are the good ones: Damien’s, bomb hole, groms, V, park bench, TTS are all well over a decade old (or considerably more, especially Damien’s which goes back to the mid-90s, allegedly)
Holidaying in India and I’m stupidly glad I didn’t grow up living on a traffic island in a large intersection. Lots about this place is wonderful but there always that undercurrent of brutal systemic factors…
I saw today on RNZ about the manage my health hack that it was a single module that had been exploited via a valid password. Presumably they weren’t limiting or sanitizing input, allowing lateral retrieval of others’ records? I was curious if there were any more details around it?
I’ve only been vaguely aware if what’s going on… For MMH, the timing is probably fairly convenient with everyone enjoying summer rather than reading the news at work?
Had a strange one at work today - one of the radiologists wanted to try a stream deck they’d purchased to speed up their reporting.
The piece of shit software wouldn’t even talk to the device without admin rights. I thought it ought to at least connect and be able to interact with other apps on the same security context, at least in a rudimentary way, but nope!
Looks like the reporting tools don’t properly accommodate any API or macro hotkeys either, so it was probably a hopeless idea all along.
There are Karearea nesting around there (I think they do it on the ground too!), so that might be it - presumably that’d be far away from where people are zipping past, though
As a regular up there, I’m stoked it’s resolved.
Its hard to tell sometimes but ive had riders warn me several times of branches lying in suspicious places on the trails that they were sure were intentionally placed to be harmful.
It’s all old pine, so they seem to let go occasionally, with the winds and all.
I’m glad to not need to worry about evil surprises - those tracks are gnarly enough as it is!
Yeah that sounds about right
How did you miss the “<was>” bit?
This is great - get it back in the debate again!
I’m disappointed they’re treading softly rather than ‘leading’ things, but I’m consoling myself hoping it’s the thin end of the wedge
I was gonna make this a tshirt for the rally using the national N logo but didn’t get my A into G. Kinda fortunate the weather forced the demonstration to be cancelled 'cos I was feeling guilty about it…
Still might organise it just in case
Yay, a subscribe/paywall - thanks for giving the gist!
I guess Auckland and parliament really focus on themselves…
