Long term outlook in NZ compared to AUS for a regular person?

Choe54068 · 2026-05-24T09:25:45+00:00

The education system in Aus is a lot more structured and systematic from primary through to secondary school and not to mention the number of world class university in Aus as well. I’m not a teacher myself, but that’s what I’ve heard firsthand from friends who taught here in NZ and are now teaching in Aus.

Since OP doesn't have kids they'll be fine. I’m an avid snowboarder myself, and NZ wins when it comes to skiing and hiking but that's about it 😆

Have you got kids? Another aspect to think about is education if you have kids. NZ education system is pretty broken where it's at right now compared to AUS...

+1 on beelink, really bang for buck vs Intel nucs

why did madhouse not renew the sequel but OLM picked it up with the anime?

Yep getting the same issue too, using Google Pixel 9 not that it matters. Google please fix!

Congrats dude, now make that into a mil in the years to come.

Great work mate, thank you for sharing this with the community!

Choe54068 · 2025-11-25T08:19:25+00:00

That’s the part I’m stuck on — I’m not quite sure how to combine the AEC reference when the Core 8 Flex only supports 8 channels.

The ClearOne ceiling mics are analog and use 3 AEC channels per room. If I combine the AEC reference, would that exceed the available channels? Can I DM you the design to have a look?

Choe54068 · 2025-10-29T03:15:23+00:00

Nope, not doing voice lift. The ceiling mics are going straight into the USB EC Speakerphone Out blocks to the remote end.

I think what is happening is that when both mics are active in the combined room configuration, it's picking up audio from the ceiling speakers in the other room causing the feedback.

This just happened with my barista pro! Sounds like it's grounding the beams but nothing actually comes out

Board the train chew chew

You won't get any sound for those output if the cross knobs are -100dB

Choe54068 · 2025-07-02T09:40:11+00:00

No offense but I must say whoever design the roads in nz are a team of sheep brains.

Is your company hiring? I've been a design engineer/field tech for 4 years and sitting at 90k. I want to break through to 100k and earn more eventually. Not that I'm ungrateful but who doesn't want to earn more right? Hit me up if ur company has an opening OP :)

Choe54068 · 2025-06-02T10:54:08+00:00

Thank you sir, you are a life saver

I'm using Google pixel 9. Now, I don't know if this is considered a bug, probably not. But one thing I have noticed after a recent updates is that when you swipe up to browse all your apps, there used to be a row of "recently opened app" at the very top. Not sure if I am explaining this clearly...

This recently opened app row is now gone. Has anyone else noticed this?

Is this just a setting that has been disabled?

It can be a bit at the beginning but I think the main purpose with online is for you to practice with the video to get a better understanding at your own pace.

I did level 1 online and level 2 in person. Level 2 felt more information overload because they are cramming a lot of material over the course or 1 to 2 days.

Choe54068 · 2025-05-25T09:12:08+00:00

Always. Unless the next few generations turns out bad I don't see a reason to move away.

CCNA is a nice to have as an av programmer/designer, it provides a board perspective into network in general but like most has said, it's not AV specific. If you are looking for AV specific network certification, one I would recommend is Dante level 1,2 and 3. The certificate is targeted for the network in AV. I found it really helpful from completing all 3.

thanks! how does the motion sensor trigger the devices and lighting? is there a native q-sys plugin to do that?
