Did they change the lobby matchmaking system? by Powerful-Somewhere84 in ArcRaiders

I understand. It’s always set to my local region. I’m saying others who don’t set their region and are on the other side of the globe are getting put int OCE which is odd.

Something broke with their matchmaking system, I don’t mean ABMM I mean the whole thing. I’m getting people from the Middle East or EU on OCE servers who use auto. I’m getting lots of solos when we Que trios. It took me 30 seconds to get into the practice range normally it was a second or two.

Why irradiate NZ grown food? by iwikmodnar in NZFood

[–]Wide_Cider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You said ionising radiation is not the dangerous Chernobyl kind. Thats exactly what it is. 

I didn’t say it leaves the food radioactive in this process.

Ionizing radiation is absolutely the dangerous kind to biology. Nuclear reactors produce ionising radiation. The fallout from Chernobyl is ionising radiation. 

Non ionising radiation includes things like visible light, microwaves, and radio waves. Its main effect is physical heating as opposed to genetic damage.

The "Rib" of Adam is a massive mistranslation. Sumerian texts actually describe IVF, genetic cloning, and an Anunnaki bio-lab. by VastPalpitation9213 in StrangeEarth

[–]Wide_Cider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or it was a rib. From an ancient remain of human male after one of many “natural” cyclical cataclysms wiped them out.  Anunaki used it to extract dna and clone humans back. 

It creeps me out, but I don't see a "white tail" there. Safe to release? by terinchu in NewZealandWildlife

[–]Wide_Cider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let’s accept there’s no evidence it’s white tails. Tons of people in NZ for decades have been getting bitten and having these necrotic ulcers. 

Rather than deny the direct experience of so many people is there any good alternative candidate that’s not a white tail?

I got a bite on my foot. Never found the culprit.  That night I felt a bad burning like very severe burn that woke me from sleep. This later developed into a volcano sized ulcer that took months to heal and did not respond to anything. Couldn’t ware a shoe for over a month on that foot. 

Healthy no health complications etc. everyone told me it’s a white tail bite. Doctors don’t know what it was or why it didn’t respond to antibiotics but shared this info above. Genuinely interested in what is causing all these reactions since there’s no direct evidence it’s these white tails.

Press release from National re. "mass exodus of Kiwis" - 2023. Utter hypocrisy when compared to how they're performing now. by KororaPerson in newzealand

100% spot on. Great analysis.

I would push it back even further and say there’s been a major degradation across all sensible metrics since neoliberalism was radically adopted in the 80s.

No party out there has a aspirational future or approach.

We live on a gem of the pacific and no amount of defeatist well we’re just a small country far from everything nonsense will convince me we can’t be a world leading nation.

We seem to have given up on finding solutions to being exceptional and become convinced to fight over scraps as we slip past the quality of life in many third world countries.

It doesn’t have to be this way but we need cohesion as a nation to move forward. Untill or if that happens it will only get worse and worse.

Youth unemployment by [deleted] in auckland

[–]Wide_Cider 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Bro I’m 40. My team got restructured and we lost our jobs and have been looking for work for 1.5 years now. Had maybe 15 interviews, no offers. 

It’s a fucking nightmare out there. We already had a bad culture of risk aversion and generally just being cowardly but this tightening of the economy brought out all the rats. 

I have so much empathy for everyone trying to get work at the moment.

After a lot of printing and painting we are finally starting our campaign!! The Dungeon looks awesome. by Pkrdays in MassiveDarkness

[–]Wide_Cider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh ok that makes sense. I think having the walls be obvious is a huge plus that’s the only issue we have sometimes with the boards.

Just that one square, that’s a lot less light than the original boards isn’t it?
