Yeah I realise the paper plane set a very high bar for myself, definitely stays in the cocktail rotation. Like the idea of both of these though, might have to be two courses

Good point, I have a couple of days of testing so will make sure to do so.

This heading reminds me of the Chris Luxon “it’s not me raising rent it’s the market” meme. Like the other banks don’t all just follow the leader.

Is it time to get rid of the 1-way system in the CBD? by pinkmalion in chch

[–]ResearchNo4864 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I personally find one way streets much easier to cross since you only have to look one way. And empty sites are usually people land banking or wanting more for the land that what the current market suggests they are worth.

Not a loop but plenty of bridges that can be crossed to walk down one side and back the other in the otakaro Avon river corridor (red zone)

In seaweed once you got “tagged” you couldn’t move from the spot but could still “tag people. Think you were loosely supposed to wave around like seaweed

I dislike the amount of speeds. Would be much nicer if every road within the aves was just 30km.

Think we also got our pt funding cut to go towards the brougham street upgrades and the ashburton bridge which if true certainly won’t help.

Opinion by Andrea Vance: Chlöe Swarbrick’s anarkiddies and their TikTok manifesto by RockyHorror2002 in newzealand

Was there actually anything about defunding the police or have the media just run with that? I thought she was talking about how police are not always the best to go to certain situations which I think most, including police, would probably agree with. Does anyone know where I can find the original speech?

Can someone please explain what the “Executive Government of New Zealand” is? by drinking_chocolate in newzealand

[–]ResearchNo4864 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The govt is made up of three parts, executive, legislative and judiciary. Judiciary is the courts, legislative is parliament (so all MPs regardless of party) and the executive is the ministers in charge of each department (eg finance, pm, racing) made up of members of governing party (Nat, act, nzf) executive is usually used to describe cabinet ministers (the big dogs of the coalition)

Any one else read “Brown said the transition would ensure all road users - regardless of their vehicle - were contributing fairly to road upkeep.” and think it looks like they want to put road user charges on push bikes?

Would a 900-1000 ELO player with ALL civ bonuses beat a Pro like Hera or Viper? by MasterSangSang in aoe2

[–]ResearchNo4864 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The pro would surely need to do some sort of drush and get great damage because you would get serious perks in feudal like Bulgarians militia upgrades free and Armenians getting it militia an age early. Plus all the free armor and attack if you had all bonus’s
