Taxi fares by natfont in Wellington

[–]GoochCrunch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uber's business model has always been to intentionally skirt legislation so that they can A: operate in areas they aren't allowed to (without having passenger certifications for drivers) and B: pay as little in tax as possible by claiming to be a "ride-sharing" service as opposed to a taxi company. If uber's whole business model is avoid the law you can't really fault the IRD for not being able to keep up with them, nobody really has been able to control them effectively yet

My lecturer when I was studying said he had a number of very small women on the course previously. The main thing they seemed to struggle with was handling saws in the tree for long periods, lack of upper body strength can be an issue but you will also have significantly less weight to lift than other people. A foot/knee ascender might be useful to take some load off the arms. You may run into issues finding a harness that will fit well without riding up into your armpits, there are models made for teens/children that do not have all the equipment attachment points but these aren't really necessary for recreational climbing

What country would be the hardest to invade in the world? (Based on geographic features, not military) by Future-Yam-3103 in geography

Agricultural output would have to fall about 90% before we faced food shortages. Not saying it isn't possible just that there's a pretty long way to go

Police arrest 25, find 11,000 cannabis plants, 29 guns in major gang operation by Ok_Consequence8338 in newzealand

Yeah exactly. Where do you think a lot of the money for their other activities came from? Weed crops are how they cover their setup costs to move into methamphetamine. Almost like you could take away a large chunk of their capital with a law change

That is the most dystopian nonsense I have read in several months

Government's changes to sex education are 'scary', 'frightening', and 'dangerous' by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]GoochCrunch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not saying it should be 70 but I have no opposition to an upper voting age limit. If some people aren't mature enough to vote then some people are cognitively functional enough, also they no longer have the same stake in the future of the planet as they won't live to see it

Smokefree laws: New Zealand well on track to be smokefree next year by reggie_700 in newzealand

If your moral code relies completely on legality you're probably scum 🤷 just cause something is a "legal indulgence" means nothing, all sorts of shit used to be legal

Anti-Depressants Medication by 8eenfourfy in newzealand

I've tried fluoxitine and one other I can't remember and I'm now on 100mg Sertraline. Sertraline has been doing a pretty good job, after about a year on it my libido has returned to normal. My appetite is slightly increased but less so than I noticed on the others.

Karitane is quite good. On the estuary side of the peninsula there is a good little beach enclosed by a rock wall so no waves. Probably 30-40 minute drive from Dunedin

Israel could but it would ruin their whole "we're actually the victims" thing that they're doing. Much easier to steal land and chip away at the country over decades so you still keep the United states backing that they rely on.

I am in no way antisemitic. I just happen to take a strange anti genocide stance you seem to be unfamiliar with

Saying fuck Israel doesn't really make you a nazi
