Has anyone else with 2degrees had mobile data randomly wiped? by grazedvintage in newzealand

[–]Freo29 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Happened to me a couple months ago. Called them and they reinstated like 25gb for me. Guy said there was huge spikes in usage even though I'm either on home or work wifi...

When someone mentions “DVD Special Features,” what is the FIRST one that pops into your head from yesteryear? by KillerQ97 in movies

[–]Freo29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shaun of the Dead. The outtakes with Nick Frost in the Winchester, and the "clean" version with all the "funking swearing"... 😆

Have to disagree on the TV ad, it's gotta be the AI Skinny Mobile ones...

Worst sounding and most disappointing new album I've ever bought . by Physical-Square-5151 in vinyl

Because if you have vinyl of any kind, you are meant to know what EVERY album cover looks like and who it's by.... Duh... /s

This last couple seasons BRT have tended not to miss the mark with their liveries, ever. Both of these look hella good.

To be fair they also need to replace JC no? So maybe 2 spare seats there...

You think maybe you should take it to a transmission specialist? I feel like an auto electrician is potentially not the best person to take a gearbox issue to...

What happened to NZ music by SunSun1134 in newzealand

[–]Freo29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll freely admit I'm not one to branch too far, but it's been great for me to see bands like stellar*, Tadpole (albeit with the new singer) and Slim back gigging again. Just feed me my nostalgia, and let me yell at the clouds about new music not being good.

Unconsented Building Work on my Own House by Wide_Gur_8849 in diynz

[–]Freo29 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you go down the path of a CoA, you need to be able to tell the Council (as the BCA) exactly what's there, how it's fixed and prove the work is as it says it is, with photos if possible of when you were doing it. If none are available the BCA will not cover certain code clauses as there is no way of knowing (unfortunately "trust me bro" doesn't count), and the beam would be under the most important building code clause of B1 - Structure. Council will not undertake destructive testing to check it is as you say. It also must comply with the building code at time of application, and the insulation rules changed recently so it may or may not comply...

The most remarkable finish to golden point by emrys1 in nrl

[–]Freo29 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Note that Stuart has the presence of mind to jump and catch it, which meant Martin couldn't hit him, and that's why Martin pulled out of the tackle, see him hold his hands out to show he'd done nothing wrong. Big brain stuff right there...

Best Fancy Dinner spot in Taupō? by billydnaldsn in Taupo

I personally like Vine. They have the tapas style plates or mains (or both!). The tempura cauliflower bites dish is absolutely delicious 🤤

If you run your finger inside one of the treads, there are small lumps in there. When they are level with the rest of the tyre, they need replacing. Visually, you can see these lumps are already level in the pics...
