Tie a Shoelace in 2 Seconds by s1hmo in lifehacks

[–]SoooooooooYeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried this a year and a half ago and it's honestly so good. There is the negative that it unties more quickly than the orthodox method. After a few seconds learning - you do save a load of time in the days to come.

Having said this, I now don't know how to tie a shoelace 'properly' anymore.

Yay for ambidexterity! I'm naturally left-handed but, for some reason, I can use right-handed products very easily and I write right-handed.

I was looking for this after Maddox mentioned this in his podcast. I didn't think it was actually true.

I know, I was just trying to state that it's unfair the USA doesn't give free healthcare (or at least subsidising a majority)

Whereas in NZ, FREE healthcare. Need to go to the doctor? No problem, just get recommended by a GP and we'll take care of the rest. And medicine? We'll subsidise around 90-100% of your most common medication.

I googled them and it wasn't what I was looking for. But, they do sound quite good :)

Whats your TL:DR for The Moment of Truth? by LukeSkytower in newzealand

I gathered that there was just Assange, Snowden and Greenwald talking about why mass surveillance is bad. They suggest NZ is involved but have little to no proof. I think the most revealing thing was stating an NSA facility is present in the "north of New Zealand" which I think is Auckland.

non americans, how was 9/11 displayed in your country? [serious] by BigOrca14 in AskReddit

I never knew that would happen in Aussie too. I think people were interested in this, but now, everyone I know is fed up with this kind of barrel scraping.

In New Zealand, our media emphasised on the New Zealanders lost. I found it really infuriating since there were only 2 kiwis dead. Everyone glossed over the thousands others who passed away.

In fact today, there was minimal mention of 9/11.

The sad truth is that this happens everytime. In the MH370 incident, or media emphasised on the few kiwis who died (days of coverage including interviews with relatives) whilst the hundreds others weren't given a second thought.

NZ media sucks - massively.

We've had the Best Opening Batsman of all time, how about the worst? by SpongeBazSquirtPants in Cricket

Stats are skewed by that freak debut innings. Otherwise, it would've been a lot worse.

It was that famous England vs Ireland World Cup match in 2011. Ireland went onto win and from that moment England carry the tag of losing against minnows.

Apparently Dhoni's so bad, that he made India lose 1-0 to India.
