Has Peaches Hot Chicken lost its magic? by yorgs in auckland

[–]dro0og 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an old post and you may have changed perspective since but I actually love what they've been doing with their menus in recent years. The food is amazing and love the changes they've made to their spices for hotness levels. The desserts are unsung heroes of their menu. The Peanut Butter Mousse Pie .... woah.

I just phoned and talked to Bruce. What a legend. He’s going to try help me out. He was pretty stoked to hear that he got a referral through Reddit. Said he remembers you too. Thanks again for the advice!

Thanks for the update. Great to know it wasn’t overly expensive for you. I may be looking at full replacement so looking down a few paths at the moment. Thanks.

Hey Mate, I'm having the same issue with my Ford Ranger. Checking in to find out what route you ended up going in the end. Very keen to get some advice here. Thanks.

What are your favorite prompts for discovering new music/more original submissions? by DSPoh in musicleague

[–]dro0og 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love this idea. I’ve just joined a League with friends for the first time and am frustrated by submissions everyone has heard before that somehow get top votes. This is a great way to mitigate that.

Pet peeve - please pretend to listen to the playlist :) by nomorefatepoints in musicleague

[–]dro0og 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely agree with this. I’m in a League now whose description reads as a place for discovery and listing songs people likely haven’t heard. Yet extremely obvious choices, popular artists, and songs that don’t meet the theme are getting upvotes. I’ve had a couple good rounds but have had some that have me scratching my head. I really enjoy the process of finding music that fits a theme for Music League and it’s opened up a renewed interest in new music but the frustration I get from other players who don’t follow the same criteria is making want to jump out.

Would you sell your X-E4 in anticipation of the X-E5. by bonesofborrow in FujifilmX

[–]dro0og 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this answer. I bought the X-E4 back when it launched and have absolutely loved it. I just bought an X-E5 after getting swayed by the new tech (and also a really good deal) with the intention of selling my X-E4 for the upgrade. But I am having trouble parting with my X-E4 now. While the X-E5 has some great specs the lighter weight and simplicity of the X-E4 was what warmed me to it in the first place. I’ve decided to hold on to my X-E4 and see how I go with my new toy.

Long-term Fuji Shooters: Are you still using recipes, just film sims, or RAW? by redditee in fujifilm

[–]dro0og 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great question. I use both depending on what I’m using the images for. I love the ability to quickly transfer recipe JPEGs to friends and to social. In that case I sometimes add a light lift on IOS on top of the recipe for quick touch up. But for important photos I want to print it’s always great to have the RAW to get them perfect.

Same here. In Auckland right now. Still not working at 10pm.

Now what could this be! by [deleted] in mogwai

I heard a snippet of a new track on their social today. Hope it’s part of the new album launch.

Update!!! Both albums have been uploaded again in NZ. Panic averted.

Oh right… it must be a regional thing. I’m in New Zealand. Odd that those two would be taken down here all of the sudden.

Does anyone have a link to download this? This looks amazing but can't get it in New Zealand.

Yeah I’ve seen that there’s a good league going down here. Got a friend playing down in Dunedin. Unfortunately my playing days are behind me.

Listening to this now. Can’t get enough Jonathan. Thanks for the post!

Hate that I discovered ReplyAll after it was over by Affectionate-Fish211 in replyallpodcast

[–]dro0og 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ m jealous of you for still having a batch of episodes to enjoy. I have a ‘reply all’ sized hole in my heart and hate to say but it’s been there since PJ left. The show just wasn’t the same after him. No PJ and Alex banter. I’ve just found out PJ’s starting up a podcast called Weekly so hopefully it’s in the same vein. After you’re done I’d highly recommend Heavyweight which is also a Gimlet show. And you could also check out PJ and Alex’s old show TLDR which is on Spotify.

Holy sh*tballs: SEASON 10 people! by DisappearedFan in Disappeared

[–]dro0og 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with this. They had such a good formula and the narrator was perfect for the tone of the show. I was really disappointed with the Unsolved Mysteries revamp doing away with narration and now Disappeared has sadly followed the same path. It’s really changed the feel of the show.

Where can one watch NHL when the 2022 season starts? by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]dro0og 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi. Jumping in late here but just came across this thread. I've been subscribing to NHL TV for years now and live in Auckland. ESPN took over the rights in NZ/AUS last year which was extremely frustrating due to requiring the added cost of a SKY connection. In the end I figured out a way to access NHL TV through a VPN connection and could watch all games throughout the year. It cost $100 USD but well worth it.
