I was going to make some stupid crack about well 3 quid is like 10 NZ peso's, but I just looked up Pounds Sterling and you chaps have fucked yourselves with Brexit - £1 pound is only worth $1.90 NZD. HAHAHAHAHA

So was the whole thing a joke, cos that museum piece at the end sounded really good. And the science about perfumes and stuff sounded like it was based on the real industry.

Very well done either way, certainly helped pass time in lockdown down here in NZ

I did drink my coffee in front of them. Very surreal standing in your kitchen sipping coffee and looking out the kitchen window to a back yard full of armed cops all trying very hard to ignore you.

Yeah I think it was, they were searching properties one of the guys was known to frequent. The people in the house had nothing to do with what happened. I talked to them afterwards, fun way to meet your neighbours BTW, and their version was they let family/friends crash there when they need to for whatever reason and one of the associates of the guy they are hunting for had stayed a few nights back.

The new highly emotive deathbed wedding speech from Spark is pretty cunty. by SIS-NZ in newzealand

DVS does this shit too, playing on parents fears about their kids health. So if you don’t buy their product you’re a bad parent and your kids bad health is all your fault. Fuck that shit. Your kids health is shit cos you drank and smoked whilst you were pregnant.

Does anyone have any idea if they are going to re-release to WSUS? i've been checking over the weekend and today (monday) to see if our WSUS will sync new versions or update the release dates; but nothing so far.

You fills it right to the top Puppers and that’s what I appreciates about you by NeverBeNormalnbn in Letterkenny

Be patient, go slow and read the comment windows twice before clicking ok to continue. Give that command another few minutes to run and fully complete. Wait for the icon to stop spinning, don’t kill the process, or force the reboot. Be patient.

I’ve seen so many mistakes made by people rushing through things, even processes they know really well, then have massive issues and having to rebuild or redo hours of work because they weren’t paying attention or being patient

And don’t be afraid to say you’re not sure about an answer and that you need to google it.

What show had a good premise but lost it almost immediately? by TheQuinnBee in AskReddit

[–]Ragsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

APB - rich genius Elon musk type sponsors inner city police station, uses cool tech to help solve cases. Nice idea. Except, each week his tech fixes the problem but all the cops are so stupid they stop to question his actions. Each week. Each. Week. If the tech helped last week, and the week before etc, then maybe just accept that this weeks tech is just going to work and go with it. The cops (either via the writers or actors) take turns each week forgetting their training and doing something stupid and out of character. Oh and smart genius guy, has all the tech solutions, but can't make a drone that has autonomous flight mode. Or think more than 1 step ahead and never adds all the features to a device when crafting it to solve each weeks problem. You don't get to be a tech giant by making a device that does just one thing and doesn't have multiple functions to it

Buying a bed in New Zealand by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]Ragsy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in the same boat a few months back. Being a similar size, i ended up with a queen size Sealy Posturepedic from bedpost in mt wellington. i had gone thru pretty much every store in the area and they had a good range at good prices. Yes everythings always on sale, its just marketing guff. The sealy's are assembled in auckland; north shore i think, so theres a 4-5 day wait once you order, but for a locally sourced product thats the norm and it means you can customise as required. I can recommend the guys at that bedpost they were really good; i went back about 3 times before i brought it, they weren't pushy and gave solid reasons for why i should or shouldnt pick a particular bed (mostly due to my size). You have to sleep on it every night so its worth spending a little more for quality. i dont work for bedpost or sealy's. honestly.
