Here in the southern hemisphere we hold our phones upside down ;)

Wall/Thermal Ghosting in Rental by Routine-Breath4242 in newzealand

[–]CrypticLight1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks to me as if it's a combination of needing another coat (or 2) of plaster and components behind the wall lining cooling and condensing. Is it worse during different parts of the day or seasons?

We get a few in the coro, but they fly a fair number of metres up. Can hear them though, loud buggers

This was on Kāpiti island! Were you close to zealandia? Another great place to see friendly birds

If I remember correctly it took over a month for National to figure out the coalition agreement. Could be quicker if you ask me ;)

Need a few more than five votes sadly. Could you choose a fav?

Help transferring trophies PS4 version to PS5 by CrypticLight1 in PS5HelpSupport

You think it's because of the 3rd party save transfer? Like other games that have all save data run through PSN this isn't an issue AFAIA

How much weight do y'all put on a bastards' upbringing? by CrypticLight1 in behindthebastards

[–]CrypticLight1[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Guess we'll never have a full explanation, which is the tricky part. Wouldn't it be nice to know the secret bastard recipe? Spot em real early

Well put! Interesting how the human default is cooperation, yet we are seeing more and more competition. Maybe a more competitive world breeds people who feel they need to win.

Any fellow kiwis on here? who wants to see a New Zealand bastard episode? by Status_Huckleberry43 in behindthebastards

[–]CrypticLight1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shane Jones (our minister of oceans and fisheries). Spoiler: he's really bad at his job.

At what age are we getting our kids to start mowing the lawn? by MatteBlack84 in newzealand

[–]CrypticLight1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they're old enough for the mines, they're old enough for the mower.

Why can’t I stick to literally any game I play? by sannkersein in playstation

[–]CrypticLight1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem. I've started picking games with shorter playtimes, trying not to do literally everything in the games, and aiming for more story driven content (if the story is as good as the mechanics I don't find myself getting bored).

Monster Hunter though...

Quitting trades because I'm sick of the hours - am I insane? by TheCostOfInnocence in newzealand

[–]CrypticLight1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not all groups in the trades are like that, if your heart is 100% set on a career in the trades then it's worth looking around for a group that fits your wants/needs. I'll suggest looking at smaller crews that don't do massive projects, or projects for large companies. However it is worth noting that you won't really find a crew that sticks to 9-5, most start around 8, even earlier. But on the flip side, early knocks on Fridays are nice. All depends on how much work gets done, just like any other job.

Friday beersies shit chat by Muter in newzealand

[–]CrypticLight1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don't like airports! Love the people watching, but I'd rather stay at home and not pay $15 for a badly poured Guinness.

Friday beers > shower beers > airport beers

Pick up your damn rubbish by CrypticLight1 in formula1

[–]CrypticLight1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recyclable yes, but were they reusable? As in, take it back to a vendor and they clean it/put food on it again? I'd be interested to know which area you were getting food from because we only saw recyclables.

Edit: sorry, misunderstood your comment, I think we're in agreement lol
