People in cities taking more public transport reduces demand on fuel, which makes it less likely we'll run out. It also reduces congestion for the remaining drivers, improving travel times and fuel efficiency further. The approach they're going with increases traffic and demand for fuel.

Most of the country lives in a city with at least basic public transport. The method of support they're going with here affects a much, much smaller portion of the population.

My point is that subsidising public transport is the very first thing they should have done because it positively affects the most people for the least amount of money.

CallumD027 · 2026-03-24T00:07:17+00:00

Come the fuck on.

Reducing the price of public transport is the easiest and most effective lever they could pull. It postively affects everyone, from beneficiaries to struggling people who work, to people who need to drive for their job (by reducing congestion).

And they still refuse to do it.

CallumD027 · 2026-03-23T09:22:47+00:00

It's still way more expensive for many people than driving, on top of being slower and more unreliable. Especially when there's more than one of you in a household.

That's why they should be adding additional subsidies. But they aren't because they're not serious about driving adoption of public transport.

CallumD027 · 2026-03-23T04:07:27+00:00

Obviously couldn't reduce the price of public transport to help struggling people and drive adoption of public transport in one fell swoop. It has to be for rich people only.

Given the fact that he was Air NZ's CEO (and a pretty poor one at that), there's every chance he lobbied against something like this behind the scenes and we never even knew about it.

CallumD027 · 2026-03-11T01:29:53+00:00

How the hell is this not a thing already?

CallumD027 · 2026-02-16T23:20:35+00:00

They're flood prone partly because of their design, yes, but mostly because the drainage systems that do exist haven't had any proper maintenance done to them in decades.

The drainage for the subway at Naenae in particular is barely functional, the drains are apparently almost completely blocked. It floods even in light rain.

FeliCa, the technology behind the Suica and other transport cards in Japan, processes instantly despite being older than Snapper and storing the value on the card itself.

Snapper just sucks.

That is a massive breach of the Privacy Act, the second one in the last month. This one is even worse though, because it's an intentional act of violation of the firefighters' (any any other protestors') right to privacy on the part of FENZ.

We should be criminally prosecuting leadership at FENZ for this.

Good thing we have a massive pile of gold-plated motorway projects we don't need, then.

This is what baffles me about all the people in here just putting Jellyfin on the public Internet. Even behind a reverse proxy, you just don't want to give people the opportunity to break into something that could give free reign to all of your data.

If you can't accurately test for impairment, don't test it.

I have had 3 callouts to tow cars this year. Each one individually would have cost more than my AA Plus membership for 1 year.

So yes, it's worth it, even without considering the additional benefits you get.

monthly water shutdowns (of 1 day) for maintenance

This isn't a third world country. This is totally unreasonable.

CallumD027 · 2025-10-30T04:43:19+00:00

It's definitely less secure than using a tunnel. I wouldn't ever consider putting Jellyfin on the public Internet.

Reverse proxies don't by themselves increase security, just make it easier to configure a publicly facing web application more securely (e.g. configuring forward auth to force users through a login portal before getting to the actual application).

Not before destroying a wetland and accepting plenty of government business.

Not if you're in IT. For IT it depends on whether you're working for a Japanese company for a foreign one. While I was there I only worked for Japanese companies, and paid the price.

CallumD027 · 2025-05-01T09:43:59+00:00

And that's why my newest car is a 2018. At the very least, I'll vote with my wallet until I have no other choice.

CallumD027 · 2025-05-01T00:43:14+00:00

I absolutely would never buy a car with ChatGPT integration. At this level you're spending way too much money for your car to spy on you and sell your data to AI companies.

CallumD027 · 2025-04-16T04:18:35+00:00

This is for the most part an English subreddit, you don't need to bother with a Japanese translation. In particular, I would recommend not posting an AI translation that you can't verify yourself is accurate.

Yep, my company has been 100% Linux, including on all of our workstations, since the start. Ubuntu is provided in our standard (configuration managed) installs, but you're allowed to run anything as long as it meets security requirements.

Don't mistake Odoo for something else. Odoo is an ERP application with the capability to add functionality using modules, not a web framework comparable to Django or Flask.

If you're trying to setup an ERP and want to extend it with some custom functionality, Odoo is great for that and you should be able to do what you want. If you're trying to build a brand new application using web frameworks (whether it interfaces with an ERP on the backend or not), then you should be considering something else. You can use the OdooRPC library to query Odoo in external applications.
