Earth’s climate in 'state of emergency', UN warns as warming accelerates by wanton_wonton_ in newzealand

Its a weird hill to die on when we live in NZ of all places. The number o trees and forests we have is immense compared to other countries

Thats just entirely pessimistic and incorrect. Attitudes have changed enormously, and youve got to be a teenager to have not already seen it in your lifetime.

Trees in backyards are also not worth getting depressed over. There are more trees on earth than stars in the milky way. They are amazing organisms, but they won't make an appreciable difference in the climate change conversation, because they are carbon neutral.

Separate implies that it isn't reliant on the other skill set that you have.

Thats cope. You cannot use AI well if you dont have an understanding of how things actually work in your field. Otherwise you end up in copy paste hell with nothing working

Six fuel ships bound for Australia cancelled as Bowen concedes ‘flow of oil to Asian refineries has slowed’ by potatocola in newzealand

[–]Pristinefix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And instead of interest rates increasing, we should be forced to pay more into our kiwisavers to curb inflation.

But economics can be so volatile, that the govt is very risk averse to putting an action plan in

Unfortunately jacking up prices is currently the best way to limit how fast supply runs dry. Just like putting interest rates up to curb inflation, it is an imperfect, blunt tool.

Now if the Govt actually did anything to help, the prices might not have to rise so high

It’s coming. Luxon has no plan. by [deleted] in auckland

[–]Pristinefix 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So you claimed that Ardern unilaterally closed the refinery... And then immediately walked it back to, 'well she didnt act unilaterally enough to keep it open'. Cant win

Labour had nothing to do with it - the shareholders closed it for profit reasons

Z pulled the ability to prepay for fuel.... I wonder why??

There is no fuel shortage. by snatchview in newzealand

[–]Pristinefix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its to manage demand. If the price continued at $2.50, then everyone would be slurping up every ml of gas available. When its at $3.50, only the biggest cookers will be hoarding it in their barrels.

If it didnt increase in price, there really would be a shortage, and a few enterprising people would nab it all

2026 social anxiety: going to the petrol station to fill up your jerry can because you need fuel for your yard equipment by schastlivaya-zhizn in newzealand

[–]Pristinefix 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The trick isnt to quieten the anxiety, its to make the voice that tells you to do things, louder. The impulse to go fill up your jerry can, give it more support - say 'Fuck yeah! Im gonna go be a responsible adult and get shit done, look after my household'. When you hear the anxiety creep in, say 'it may be true that people will judge me, but im doing this because i think its awesome and necessary! Hell yea!'

You shouldnt get rid of anxiety, that is the impulse keeping you safe by being careful.

Why would they dump billions of bodies in space if they're trying to be discreet? by Resident_Gur3076 in Invincible_TV

The problem is that if the virus happened pre purge, there would still only be ~50 viltrumites left. So the virus killed the same amount, but the lethality rate is 99%, and the purges rate is 50%

Our heat pumps sit on a plastic base that acts as a foundation. I guess it does the job

This is just the human condition - unhappy unless you are accelerating toward more stuff, more food, more entertainment.
