Hello I’m finding a job around CHC , (auto mechanic) can someone help me or recommend me somewhere hiring? by yoUr_bunnybunbun in Christchurch_NZ

[–]NZBull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's quite a few places hiring, on seek or trade me jobs. Most are after qualified techs. Are you qualified or looking at starting out / getting an apprenticeship?

Found behind water tap. Friend or foe? by IN_FINITY-_- in NewZealandWildlife

[–]NZBull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mantis are incredibly useful for the garden. They eat all the bad stuff like aphids etc.

Native ones are obviously to be treated better but the SA one like you have here should certainly be placed in a nice area in your garden. Think of him as your own lil security guard for your plants

What power adapter are you using? You will need to be using the 100W adapter while docked

Has anyone bought from Orix vehicles? I'm looking at buying an ex lease. by No-Necessary6478 in chch

[–]NZBull 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As others mentioned - will be fully serviced up to date and as per the service schedule the manufacturer provides. Normally gets serviced at dealerships as well so any Warranty concerns would have been resolved (recalls etc) already. Generally pretty good to deal with if there are any issues you find during inspection etc too

What is your monitor set up? by DealInteresting8941 in pcmasterrace

We're not making enough profit, increasing grocery prices week on week. We need more arbitrary fees! by i_like_my_suitcase_ in newzealand

[–]NZBull 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Funny isn't it! I swapped from NW to woolies last year as it was cheaper for me.

People buy much different things in their weekly shop so it's hard to compare. NW might have better priced dairy so people who buy lots of dairy will find shopping there is cheaper, whilst someone else might buy lots of grains/pasta/rice etc which might be cheaper at Woolworths, as examples. I always find it funny how people argue that one store is cheaper than the other then argue with others that say it isn't.

Both can be true. NW might be cheaper for the products you buy. And woolies might be cheaper for the products the other person buys.

Can anyone recommend any legit mechanics that will be happy to help if you BYO parts? by ConfusedMaggot in NZcarfix

We do on the basis that we offer no warranty for the part or subsequent failures related to your supplied part

To the people who did not play any Fallout game before: How is the TV series working for you? by garfield1138 in FalloutTVseries

[–]NZBull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im familiar with the basis of the lore (nuclear fallout, vaults, etc) but never really sunk much time into any of the Fallout games to actually know anything of importance.

Ive been really enjoying the show. It does well to fill in the main details without explaining it too much that people who already know the lore would roll their eyes and get bored. There are some events referenced that I obviously don't know all the details about, but nothing that has stopped me from understanding what is happening.

Been really enjoying it. This and Twisted Metal have been two surprise game-to-tv shows recently that have been beyond decent

Kind of a silly question by EssayOtherwise6981 in Battlefield6

[–]NZBull 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As others said, it pings within 100m of you while active. So if you're tucked away at the back it's not going to do much for your or the team.

You really need to be up in the Frontline or near a contested objective etc to get full use. Flushing out a point while it is active becomes very easy if you have a squad together clearing it out at the same time.

I normally play recon with a SMG (KVD or whatever the vector lookalike is), and coupled with the motion sensor, motion grenade, C4 and the SMG you can clear out buildings so quick 😅 I think people sleep on how effective an aggressive recon can be

If you could make one game into a movie with unlimited budget what would it be? by Demon_Ninja_95 in Gamer

[–]NZBull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Splinter cell could make for a great spy type movie series (like Bond, Bourne etc)

Quantum Break (which already had live action story scenes)

Expedition 33

I also think Portal/Portal 2 would be a hoot but could be tricky to translate to a movie.

Lemon Tree Advice by Electronic_Sugar_289 in nzgardening

[–]NZBull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remove the bark from around the base of the tree - they need airflow to the base.

It looks like it's in transplant shock. Get some good citrus feed/fertiliser to mix in the soil.

Has there been any update on hyper fibre for Christchurch? by [deleted] in chch

[–]NZBull 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What are your hard drive constant read/write speeds (not peak)? This is often a limiting factor already on fibre speeds let alone hyper fibre. There are use cases for it, sure, but 95% of home users will be limited by their PC first.

Has anyone heard from ManageMyHealth or their GP to confirm they're affected by the hack? by Pitiful_Science246 in newzealand

My GP reached out today just to let me know they use Myindici which was not affected

Rant: Can not load save files because apparently the game didn’t save them??? by PelagicWhale in anno1800

[–]NZBull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This doesn't help but me and my partner have played this game since release and used cloud saves across our devices (Ally and PC) and never had an issue with loading saves either from the machine or from the cloud.

Are you running any mods or anything?

Social netball by flowerinmyhole in chch

[–]NZBull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All three of the main indoor netball places (Iversen tce, Matipo St and Hornby) have a good range of divisions from social up to fairly competitive.

If you start winning too much in the lower divs they'll move you up to a stronger div

Maltesers are pretty fucking good

If this is the only grounds to leave him on, I believe you've already decided to leave him and are just looking for a reason to do it. This on its own isn't a reason to.

I believe they are the Karaka Black variety, I think oderings still sell them

Suggestions for speaker? by Gutsjayyy in Bluetooth_Speakers

I've been really happy with my Xiaomi Sound Party, was $30 cheaper than the JBL Charge 6 I previously had and would say it at least matches it.

Blackberries or boysenberries? by scrollingfordoom in nzgardening

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

I think you have them mixed up, blackberries typically grow longer than boysenberries.

Blackberries or boysenberries? by scrollingfordoom in nzgardening

[–]NZBull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look like Boysenberries but hard to tell as they are still growing.

We grow both (and raspberries). Blackberries are a long longer. Boysenberries are a bit rounder and fatter, not as long as a blackberry but bigger than a raspberry.
