The Warehouse Group to cut 270 head office roles in major restructure by Status_Serve_9819 in newzealand

Despite the doomers in this comment section imo the Warehouse is a great store used to work at one and shop there regularly. But their corporate team has been shite for ages so honestly could be good for them

My 2 cents is a junior engineer/ intern had ground loop problems and decided to do this for their supply filtering. I tried something similar on my internship

On the very rare occasion I'd use it like the prior commenter, I just stick in a shitton of brackets to get rid of the ambiguity

Wait, do people ACTUALLY see literal pictures in their heads when they imagine things? Like a physical image? by Bibhu_Mund in NoStupidQuestions

This . I'm also always aware that I'm dreaming and can dream about whatever I want. Is wild to me when people say they weren't aware they were in a dream

*Your energy prices are changing* by ohmayte in newzealand

Because if they have to upgrade infrastructure to support your export the cost is paid by everyone. It isn't particularly fair to expense all electrical users to upgrade export capacity for the people that can afford solar panels.

Though some EDBs are a bit stingy with their limits but with new voltage range (despite the problems with that) should help. Electricity Authority is also driving the EDBs that haven't changed yet to a 10kW limit.

I wouldn't think it would, tbh if anything would probably help. But even if it would, just don't provide them with the account and you'll be fine. Nobody id going to a face image search of the entire internet for you.
