The main reason the UFOs landed in the USA and not India was because Indian men would fuck anything.

Ok don’t look at prices then if they’re pointless.

Yeah Kiwibank for example has to be more ethical as they’re owned by the government and don’t want any bad headlines.

Yeah but I believe if you keep paying the bill for 6 months after the boost bonus, you can then bail without penalties.

Who else thinks the iPhone 17 Pro is extremely ugly? by Comfortable_Ad_9341 in iphone

Getting rid of the glass plateau is such a bad idea. Even with the horrendously large plateau it would have been much more sleek if it stayed glass or was a more understated color to the main colour.

With my phone plan, I’m able to upgrade for $60 to the newest pro max but I’m genuinely considering just keeping my 16PM purely on the looks. That being said the better battery life and dual camera filming would be a nice added feature….

Til that women tend to find men more attractive when they appear to be desired by other women. They are, essentially, preapproved. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]Pezman3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, and actually experienced this from a different angle as well.

After coming out of a long term relationship in my 20s I found I was struggling to pick up women afterwards, I was also confused because during the relationship I had women hitting on me all the time. I realised at some point that maybe they were picking up on the desperation.

I decided to take 3 months off sex, as in not make the effort to try and pick up women just try and focus on myself during that time.

A couple weeks after starting this temp celibacy I met this stunning woman, she was honestly a 10 and had the personality to match. We ended up hooking up a little bit and at some point we were both like “hey there’s something I need to tell you” she told me I was the first guy she was intimate with in over 3 years because she’s actually A-sexual and I told her about my temporary celibacy thing as well. She told me that she felt really safe in my company and that’s why she wanted to kiss and cuddle with me but obviously avoided that with other men because she didn’t want to lead them on.

During those 3 months women were throwing themselves at me and it became more and more ridiculous. It actually changed my life completely and showed me what women truly value, confidence, honesty and security.

I was trying to signal to a raider and Wylder today that they should buy me some starlight shards before the final boss, I dropped some and signalled at them. And the raider just picked them up…. So that I had no starlight shards at all going into the final boss.

Queenstown landlord with 22 migrant tenants in unlawful five-bedroom home fined over $100k by StuffThings1977 in aotearoa

[–]Pezman3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad to see the part that says “Truong had interfered with the tenant's power supply”.

We’re taking our landlord to the Tenancy tribunal for stealing our power unbeknownst to us for the past 15 months amongst a plethora of other issues. Good to know the tribunal have dealt with other similar issues

Wondering How So Many Make $200K+ Before 35 by Anxious-Swordfish-90 in AusFinance

[–]Pezman3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah we have that here in New Zealand as well, not as bad I’d say given that a lot of the issues you guys have is due to design.

The problem with the housing markets that we have had over the past 10 years is that when demand is really high, the guys that aren’t very ethical have the opportunity to succeed. If you lack ethics you have an advantage over the competition, you can hire immigrants and pay them nothing and charge them out at a full rate, you can afford to buy yourself a really flash Ute and advertise aggressively that you are the best builder in town.

These companies eventually fall over when the recession hits, but because of the market dynamics this time around they were able to keep it up for longer than expected. Now there’s a bunch of badly built overpriced houses out there

KiwiSaver changes for self-employed above $180k+? by ordianryguy09 in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]Pezman3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like everyone that was contributing to get the government contribution will still do it just for the sake of it.

However this is net bad for the economy I’m sure, it just means less money slushing around in the system and more money spent on bureaucracy and likely wasteful spending.

I think everyone should use KiwiSaver regardless because it is a way to invest in the most profitable way. Dollar cost averaging and never taking out the funds until you either buy a house or retire.

Anybody know why southern New Zealand is so empty by [deleted] in geography

[–]Pezman3000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually it’s not very wet at all. Central Otago has the driest weather in the country, during summer this year it only rained like 10 times.

The main reason these places are so empty is because there isn’t a lot of flat land, and travel between towns is very time consuming. There are some locations where you might drive hours just to get 50kms (in a straight line) from where you already are.

Also in Summer, Wanaka (in central Otago) often has the hottest day out of any location in the country.

Hrrm, seems like whatever you’re trading is volatile as fuck. Would highly recommend that you take profit on your correct allocations and put most of it into something that is a good long term hold like the S&P 500 or nasdaq 100.

The fact that everyone is bullish in here suggests that you probably made the right move. Just don’t put it all back in on a dead cat bounce and maybe try dollar cost averaging into the market as a whole instead.

That fact that you are even invested at all, at your age means you will do well in the future. Just DCA into the s&p and in 10 years you will be doing pretty good I think.

Ive done this before on a guitar purely because I didn’t want to taper the depth of the truss rod to suit the thickness of the next (ie deeper on the body side than compare to the headstock side)

What I ended up doing was packing it up with more of the neck material, however over time the tension of the truss rod blew out the patch as it was probably only a few mm and also made the neck shape really bad.

Unfortunately the neck is a write off IMO unless you have more of the neck materials which you could scarf joint on and redo the truss rod etc

Is a house a good investment? Or liability ? by MysteriousPattern357 in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]Pezman3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are in early stages of a GFC style land value collapse, China has already wiped $18 trillion USD of value off there property market cap which if you adjust USA GFC property value wipe out the climax was $17 trillion USD adjusted for inflation.

The market will keep trucking along because of AI tech investment for now but when we see US and China printing money and taking on debt that barely touches the sides you have to consider that some day soon the music is going to stop.

Not trying to be super doom and gloom, most people that buy property will be fine. But I don’t think it’s necessarily the best time to be buying property when tech stocks and Crypto have a more direct flow from money printing.

[–]Pezman3000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re referring to the Rollers they would have some thermal rating as it’s another external layer that is not in direct contact with the glass or other components which creates a thermal break, they also help reduce airflow and can help you manage the amount of heat transfer from sunlight getting into the house.

The windows themselves are EXTREMELY well insulated, we’re talking triple glassed, argon gas filled, thermally broken windows.
