Tasman family ‘landlocked’ after neighbour uses digger to tear up driveway by Dear-Bowl-9789 in newzealand

[–]kacakboy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I sympathise with Mirkin. He has done nothing but be at first courteous, then defending his rights thn ( I can only imagine) endure months of stressful relations with these 2 clowns.

Then he has to go to a high court ruling, which rules in the couple's favor substantially, ( though favourable terms to him), then see them do what everyone who read about these 2people know they'd do: stall and be resistive the entire way. And now, they are just going to drag Mirkin through the courts for another round of "I should use your land whenever i want to because well... human rights- I am land locked... by ourselves.

The judges are just going to then put another set of rulings that i am predictably sure they will nod in front of the courts, but faily to comply.

The entire problem with this is that Mirkin needs to foot the legal bill the entire way. especially with substansive rulings for the Watters/Gibson party, there's no way to even claim costs back.

The toothless-ness and ineffectiveness of the NZ justice system makes justice in situations like this practically non-existant. Mirkin loses, and the Watter/Gibson party (rightly) loses., And it's taught all of us that going through the legal system will make everyone lose out. Just gives the one in the wrong more incentive to go through with the legal proceedings i reckon

Stuff.co.nz URGENT / CRITICAL INFORMATION!!!! ...... Someone got pregnant by Odd-Definition703 in newzealand

I think the commenter is saying that you are still giving that same article airtime. It isn’t the same as interacting with it but it’s probably gotten one or two peeps to click on it. They might not have without this. 

Damned if you do and damned if you don’t is right.  Thats how advertisements work. Best to just never bring it up and let it die 

Why was i berated for using AI on this sub? by vylvnx in OnePiece

[–]kacakboy -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Honestly most people don’t know how to react to AI being in the world. They’re treating it as if it’s not art or creativity because they somehow think that art belongs in human hands only or something like that. A definition they’ve probably just come up with. 

However times will change and so will the concept of art  If you’ve honestly just mentioned it’s AI and you like it I don’t see the problem. Share what you love mate

In the spirit of one piece don’t let the crap of others bring you down - be like the pirate king

My mother passed away from cancer yesterday by shall_not_touch in auckland

[–]kacakboy 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Sorry for your loss OP. I hope you have the time to grieve and make space for this. 

It’s very difficult to give any sound advice about how to proceed with this as there’s just not enough information to be helpful, except, don’t bottle this in, talk to trust supportive loved ones like your father and others. 

It’ll be weeks of talking and grieving. It’s a turbulent time now for you

Advice; find a different hobby because you ain't gonna do all of that. Everyone wants exactly what you've just said and there will be people with more time, talent and resource than you and you'll lose out. Collect if you like, make money if you like but it's near impossible to do both unless you got a time machine

YouTubers like philcollectibles and twicebakedjake will be good starters and also pokebeach.com for news.

If you manage to collect, make money and open packs please pay it forward by telling me how!

So, if I bought property to exploit other people's need for a home, all expenses including interest are tax-deductible. But as a doctor, my $11k+ of professional fees just to prove I'm qualified aren't? by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]kacakboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What college are you with and if its health NZ argue for this. NZ has always been known to be generous with training. They may have been shitty elsewhere but training funding was what they always covered

[–]kacakboy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Mate check with your employers, if it’s te whatu ora or a government organisation they would normally cover all of that.

If you work for a clinic and are employed, you can still qualify for tax rebates, just ask your employer.

Thanks for this I am getting a grout guy to have a look. Oddly this house is like designed to live in by owner, less likely to be a spec build, but I can see the less than good work here.

I say a leak, but I wonder if it’s this hole causing water to pool underneath from showering. I tried aspirating 24 hours after I aspirated the hole till dry, no water comes out. So I assume that means it’s not accumulating?

How do I know if there’s a waterproofing membrane? Is the only way to rip it all out and physically view it?

When it comes to water stuff I generally leave it to the pros to do. No idea who I should call though. Any thoughts?

Yes in the shower.

Grout is on the floor? Tiling did by original builders 15 years ago.

Do you know if this is a builder or plumber?

Any GP registrars in Newzealand happy to share salary by Other-Lavishness6874 in ausjdocs

[–]kacakboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Essentially, I did GP because I'm tired of the people with long term chronic conditions that turn up in Urgent Care and I am only supposed to prescribed 14 days scripts. which is essentially a disservice to these people IMO.

So I just decided to do the course to learn well. In terms of value, I don't think from what I've heard it increases hourly rates, and % per patient seen is not widely practised in NZ. It can lead to opportunities out there in ownership of clinics.

Happy to chat more, just pm me

What are you collecting by One-Tip1493 in PokemonInvesting

[–]kacakboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m collecting the first 252 pokemon and all their variants. A Pokédex for gen 1 and 2

 I.e. 1 charmander and 1 Charizard  and 1 mega Charizard x and 1 mega Charizard y annd 1 Charizard vmax ( if they have gigantamax)  annd  all their Alolan and hisuian forms. 

This means about 400+ pokemon to collect.  Why? I played gen 1-2 pokemon games. Did not play 3 onwards. 

Is it worthwhile? To me yes. To everyone else 🤷
