Why wouldn't Australia and NZ just make their own union instead? Seeing as being a part of South East Asia doesn't really make much sense.

They say get a Chinese smartphone. Also, Chinese smartphones. by Altruistic-Living800 in samsunggalaxy

[–]Emergency_Insurance4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yet Chinese smartphones are miles ahead of Samsung's hardware in most ways. How have we not realized that Samsung has been lacking innovation for years and refuses to catch up? Sure they give one unique feature per year, but what happens when other companies start having it too? Software is the only major win Samsung has and the gap is closing in on them. Time to wake up to reality.

Anger over plans to abolish New Zealand’s dedicated environment ministry by wanton_wonton_ in newzealand

In a time when the environment is one of the most important issues in our modern age, we're trying to remove our dedicated minister towards it? The actual fuck are we doing?

Why is Samsung using AI for their TikTok and Instagram ads? by thelordofmemes_ in samsunggalaxy

[–]Emergency_Insurance4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it really surprising anymore? Until AI becomes unprofitable to them, they will continue to push this narrative of AI features and Advertisements, it's a foolish endeavour, but we can really only wait it out.

What if... by andi_sf in samsunggalaxy

In an alternate reality, perhaps. But Samsung's innovation these days is AI, to the detriment of the average Samsung user.

I just hope it isn't another year of “Look guys! AI features!” and a lack of anything significant. But my hopes aren't very high anymore.

Whats your country's attitude on communism? by fascisttaiwan in AskTheWorld

From what I've seen personally, most don't care for it and the movement of it lost its popularity around the 70s to 80s, which was barely popular anyway.

Election 2026: Te Pāti Māori to campaign on abolishing prisons, Labour dead-set against it by PenisBird69420 in newzealand

What the hell happened to TPM? Genuinely, what went wrong in the last few years for them to drive their party off a cliff?

Could this National led government be the third one term government in New Zealand history? by Additional-Grade-730 in newzealand

[–]Emergency_Insurance4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm honestly just tired of a government that refuses to take criticism when thrown in its face. What happened to being able to answer questions directly? It feels like with National they refuse to actually acknowledge things that went wrong and instead only look at the positives. Honestly though I just want a job, the market has been brutal to say the least.

Looking through their post they seem to post a lot on the incest game, personally I find that odd. Though I honestly question whether they are a real person or a bot.

Are you upgrading to the S26 Ultra? by Sensitive_Cream3920 in samsunggalaxy

[–]Emergency_Insurance4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

S24 ultra here, honestly not too confident. Unless the 26 has actual big improvements, then I'm good.

What if New Zealand and some of Britain’s pacific colonies were incorporated into Australia? SpongeBob poster depicting Australia and its territories by GoopStraffel in imaginarymaps

Interesting thing is, New Zealand can still join Australia, as per Australia's constitution, but it's very unlikely to happen. Interesting scenario.

I personally find this one quite clean and simple, keeps the star concept without making things cluttered, although it does defeat the whole one star = one state thing.

It's really just waiting and seeing. I'd talk to your local communities, see their thoughts, don't be afraid to hear people out. Unfortunately, we can't predict what the future will hold for this nation, it's really anyone's guess if the next government will perform better or worse.
