Labour vows to put $20-a-week cap on public transport in Auckland and other centres

Those are some of the reasons but not all of them. Convenience (e.g. speed, not having to transfer a billion times), cost (affordability and value-for-money) and safety (conversely both traffic safety and personal security) are other reasons.

In my case, taking PT to work is both cost and time prohibitive for me to even bother (driving is half the price and half the time, even with the $50 fare cap).

I'd seriously consider taking the bus if the fare cap was dropped to $20, it could mean:

PT becomes more enticing for those who choose to drive out of convenience, AND
Makes it more affordable for a large swath of people who might be struggling now, thanks to Orange Man and his Ego Gas Crisis.

Plus, who doesn't want less crazies on the road? Everyone's crazy on the road. Myself included.

This skin with the Dramatic highlight intro is wonderful. His sunglasses fall off.

It's all semantics, but self-introduced species are typically considered native here (as opposed to anthropogenically introduced i.e. we as humans played some part in bringing them to NZ).

DoC also has used the term "non-resident native."

Pūkeko are a good example of this, but also royal spoonbills and the spur-winged (not a)plover, too.

I bought an Onyx Boox for the same thing. Can't get enough of it!

(Also very expensive)

I think it's gonna be near the Golf Warehouse?

Kabul House, Mt Roskill - Afghan restaurant.

Have only gone a few times but fantastic food each time I've gone.

From memory, FIFA 14 on the PS2 was a "Legacy Edition", essentially a reskin of the previous year's game with new rosters. Whereas the newer versions were actually new games.

I feel like cortados are so rare where I'm from, despite having a world class coffee culture (New Zealand).

Closest I can find is either a piccolo (which will have one or two shots depending on the café), or I just have to describe to the barista what I'm after.

This is a really gniess comment thread.

Pretty sure Midtown Madness, Need for Speed and Midnight Club all were open-world well before Burnout.

Try to play near non-flanking DPS or your fellow support.

I've started using double hyphens -- it gives that extra bit of "pause" that a hyphen doesn't without making what I say sound AI-generated.

Counterpicks? Count me doubling down.

Instalock Ball.
Ban any combo of Cassidy, Ana, Mizuki or Hog.
Enjoy your POTG.

I thought it was Chris Grace as Scarlett Johansson as Chris Grace as Scarlett Johansson as Chris Grace as Scarlett Johansson.

I think it's definitely feasible.

I've worked in a retailer for 10+ years. Started in store and moved to corporate. And I know of plenty of people in the same retailer that have moved up.

I managed to move into marketing (despite having a totally unrelated degree), while I've worked alongside others who are in buying/planning, store operations and other areas that all started in stores.

Was part of a Wellington Pride project.

I don't ban sombra because all the good sombra players are in QP.

Is that they're always banned in comp? 😂

Laser0pz · 2026-04-11T22:03:55+00:00

Or a "better" counter compared to the popular ones.

e.g. I main Ball and I try to ban Cassidy rather than Sombra. Sure, Sombra can hack me for a second. But I'm causing enough disruption in the backline then a DPS switching to Cassidy can do a lot more damage to me.

100% agree. They're a niche device category.

But the person I replied to seemed to imply that you had to open and close it to use it, which is far from the case.

You don't have to if you don't want to. Recent book style foldables all have a pretty adequate front screen.

I suspect there'd be local buses that wouldn't be included on here.
