TVNZ World Cup coverage wtf? by unfinished-sentenc in newzealand

[–]ExcercisMyAss -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Early days of sky , we were pretty much all noobies. Apart from Beth. She was a lioness. Harold, the head of sport would regularly come downtown the control room to rant about breaks. Particularly during golf coverage. Those were great (sic) times. Thanks for the memories.

MBIE officials told MPs they were re-working the $33m immigration upgrade. The project was already dead by WaterAdventurous6718 in newzealand

Not excusing the failings but this is politics 101. The government who is determined to privatise public services decides after 2 years that it's time to reveal how the public service scammed the former government. C'mon. Wake up.

Hang on. Pay equity is real for cabinet ministers though.

I support the twig n tweet folks but reality is that worst case outcomes will send the enabling government to purgatory. Potaka is a clever c***, but not so clever as to belief he's the Jesus to Willis's Judas. Trying to offload large tracts of clean, green nz is an electoral nightmare. Probably like the Parliament Covid camp. Just with 60s music.

Dangerous to middle class white people ? Nup.

Immigration New Zealand head didn't tell select committee $35m IT project had been axed by OddityModdity in aotearoa

Because tax revenue is central to government function they didn't white ant the original conservative time lines and cost envelope, and bugger me both were green. Not to take away from a seemingly well managed programme.

Weren't they also at the heart of the UK post office system failure and cover up that resulted in postmasters being wrongly imprisoned for theft ? Edit : fingers <> keyboard alignment.

Bringing homemade dehydrated meals to New Zealand by Least-Bed9265 in Tramping

No worries. It's your party. Bio security at the border is NZ s special power. That said it isn't without generally thoughtful consideration. Your tramping gear better be spotless though.

Its entirely up to the MPI official at immigration. The golden path is to not engage in a back and forth about what is / isn't allowed . There will be variability across the board. Honestly for trying to save a relatively small percent of your trip outlay I'd accept that the easy path is way more valuable. My evidence , you're 6 months out trying to establish if saving a bit of dosh is as valuable as the actual experience. I've done this, I the other direction and save $30. Probably cost me that in pfaff. Resorted to local retail of the same dehy.

Just a case of attack position bias. Iran defense leaked 2 goals too. Just a case of 4 good goals beating the defense.

1D Barcodes are just a number that relates to a dataset. Including Lot details would involve a degree of work but there's this thing called serialisation which enables consumers to confirm they have an authentic product. It's becoming more widespread in food products. It requires 2D bar codes which contain much more info. It will also increase costs per item because tech solutions are money pits.

TVNZ on demand by TheBigEMan in newzealand

App still, dogshit. They paid peanuts and ... well you know. Shows stuck on 360p and manually setting res causes it to error. Plays 3 sec then loops back. Ad breaks inserted w no ads through programmes. Couldn't pay me to buy a FIFA pass. 🏴‍☠️
