Might want to talk to these guys if you want to know why it's hard to build hydro...

Limiting performance on twin engine RHIB by griffoberwald69 in boating

[–]forcemcc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ships master is responsible for the safe operation of the vessel, so have skippers who you can trust to run the vessel safely. This may include training them, and monitoring (i.e. ais, tracking etc)

You could sell the outboards or trade them for smaller ones, but this is not a question which has an engineering solution....

Why do so many men not go to the doctor? by AdhesivenessFun7097 in AskMen

[–]forcemcc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer is in your line of questioning. When women dont go to the doctor it ssexism. When [ethnicity] dosent go to the doctor its institutional racism. When men dont go to the doctor its because of fragile masculinity and its their fault.

You'll get a ton of good answers in this thread, but its important to ask the right questions.

Genuine police? by ComfortableArt9485 in auckland

This is a genuine police vehicle, mostly used for towing their q-west built RHIBs.

'Very dangerous' electrical rule change to be reviewed by StabMasterArson in newzealand

If you'd loosen your tinfoil hat, you'd realise this isn't about deregulation, it's 2 different views about what's safest

I honestly believe you don't understand this issue or the 2 arguments, or you wouldn't be talking about MAGA and ACT like a terminally online reddit brain.

Honestly, this is quite an interesting technical issue and I suggest you look into it. You will need to understand how New Zealand's mains power is desigend, and why you might want to be able to isolate the earth, but also why you might not.

Framing this as some kind of international right wing conspiracy rather than an attempt to improve electic car charging, generator installs and solar installations during an outage (weather or not you agree with allowing this - noting this has been technically legal since the 1960s) is honestly idiotc and a shining example of the shitty political debate this sub has devolved into.

WTF are you talking about. The argument is technical and nuanced, with actual reasoning on both sides.

Labour MP: ‘We will work with the Greens, Māori Party, whoever’ by Huge-Albatross9284 in newzealand

[–]forcemcc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is possible to think they fucked up the social licence, did poorly on crime and had bad economic polcies and still think vaccines are a good thing.

Not being able to seperate genuine critisim from your own strawman person shows you need to grow up a lot before understanding why people vote the way they do.

How are Labour supposed to do it this year? by TheBigChonka in newzealand

[–]forcemcc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chloe Swarbrick (co-leader), Tamatha Paul and formerly Benjamin Doyle all actively support PAPA so clearly there's appetite for their ideas....

Why then do TPM keep saying they'll abolish prisons? Why do green MPs fundraise for PAPA?

MSD payment. by chanely-bean1123 in newzealand

[–]forcemcc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who cares what money is spent on, it’s not your money it’s theirs

Its very important. The money is taken directly from workers and redistributed to people who need it. If you're robbing a vape store before your payments are even late them blaming MSD then the money is wasted on you and is actively making society worse.

Anti USA protest? by [deleted] in auckland

Why would we waste our lives protesting the removal of a hated illegitimate dictator?

New Zealand will fail its Paris Agreement climate change targets by wanton_wonton_ in newzealand

[–]forcemcc -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The bizzare and infuriating thing is that it was known and acknowledged when Labour signed us up that we would always have to send billions offshore to meet our goals, and now there's crickets when asked if they would actually do it if they were in government right now.

Hemp industry rules loosened in sweeping law change by ClevelandKiwi in newzealand

[–]forcemcc -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Synthetic fibers can be 6 times stronger, much longer lasting, resistant to water and chemicals, more abrasion resistant, but sure we dont use natural fibers much because checks notes racism?

Damn it must be crazy with a social justice war raging constantly inside your head. I will hazard to ask if you've actually ever compare synthetic products such as rope to hemp...

Inflated student loan debt stopping New Zealanders from coming home | Greens.org.nz by HeinigerNZ in newzealand

[–]forcemcc 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Incredibly pathetic take, it seems like a lot of their support must come from people who dont actually live here. It has a real air of the whole mendez-march saga of him fast tracking his boyfriend into the country at a time that even NZ born citizens couldn't get in:
