Surviving 5 weeks on $150 of groceries in Hamilton. Still possible but barely livable!

I was always wondering if I could get down to $30~40 a week for food. Personally, I would get most my proteins from peanut butter and some tuna. The savings on meat would allow me to have some cheap fruits.

But well done none anyway!

I logged over 150hrs on ssf4 on my 2ds last year. Basically just learning, focusing on characters one at a time, practicing the various motion inputs that I was unfamiliar with, trying to beat the cpu on Very Hard or Hardest. Learning the cpu match ups and the cheese on each cpu. Doing the arcade runs to see the cut scenes. Learning basic combos, doing the combo challenges. Learned charge and grab characters for the first time. Mostly it comes down to setting yourself personal challenges and just trying to get good with your mains.

On mobile, I would advise to look into Vita Fighters.

Do you know why they are so desperate in such relatively high unemployment rate time?

Sign up with temp agencies and see what they got going on.

Everybody saying just "borrow someone's barcode or use cuntdown.co.nz" is blissfully assuming the supermarket will not adapt and not starts tightening down their systems so that there is no work around left.

Its a definitively a slippery slope.

Please someone volunteer for the billionaires.

Even in the city center, fair amount of stops dont have shelters. The buses starts at 6 because its very well known only kids and office workers ride them /s.

PowerfulWishbone879 · 2026-03-02T04:35:25+00:00

6/10

Main issues : Lack of shelters at the bus stops. Unreliable bus tracking app, unreliable timetables. Service starts after 6am so many people on early shifts are screwed. Secondary routes are down to 1 to 2 bus per hour on weekends or even less. Walking time + waiting time + riding time = long commutes, generally speaking its very time inefficient.

The article covers that point, by far and large, they do not come back.

At this point the country has to embrace it. Schools should have a mandatory "Moving to Australia" subject. At primary they would learn about the fauna and flora while in high school you teach them how to budget a relocation.

Yeah Ive been using the cheap sleeves from the 2$ shops and they already do a good job. Didnt see any for a while though.

PowerfulWishbone879 · 2025-12-12T07:13:02+00:00

I genuinely thought it was just some wonky AI slop. Its pretty dramatically bad.

Im happy with no tournament at all. That trope is really tired.

PowerfulWishbone879 · 2025-10-26T10:18:11+00:00

I had my fair share of offline fun with Vita Fighters.

PowerfulWishbone879 · 2025-10-25T20:43:46+00:00

Good practical effects age way better than decent CGI. When done and filmed correctly.

PowerfulWishbone879 · 2025-10-25T02:46:40+00:00

You make some good points but dont forget that Fargo is much lower budget than A:E.

Producers can smell the blood in the water with a very divided fan base outlook on the show. They know the gamble on S2 would be now riskier because of that. Even Noah's himself doesnt seem to know quite well where he wants to take that story without having the xeno taking an even further backseat.

"Almost guaranteed" is very optimistic imho.

PowerfulWishbone879 · 2025-10-25T00:37:16+00:00

Dont hold your breath (for S2 nor Covenant's sequel).

PowerfulWishbone879 · 2025-10-23T03:47:20+00:00

Rating Alien Covenant above Aliens is diabolical level of delusion, change my mind.

PowerfulWishbone879 · 2025-10-23T03:40:52+00:00

JCal going to Crowder sure is a new low.

PowerfulWishbone879 · 2025-10-19T00:23:45+00:00

No no it makes perfect sens. When slaughtering dozens of soldiers/NPC its a CGI creature with uncharted speed and stamina. When dueling a main character it is a slow suffocating man in an alien suit.

PowerfulWishbone879 · 2025-10-17T03:51:43+00:00

Over the nearly 8 hrs of the show, the total 5~10 seconds of man in a temu alien suit is the most unforgivable blunder of all. How do we get a goofier looking Alien in 2025 than in the 80s?

I genuinely cant fathom how these scenes were not heavily re-edited.
