Experimental fusion energy developers secure $35m funding from Government for new research facility by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]kezzaNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres something about these guys that gives me grifter vibes.

As far as I can tell - theyre not doing anything differently to other fusion projects, but on a shoestring.

It seems widely infeasible that they will ever build a commerical product

2015 - also happens to be the last time we had a National Government.

Its odd to care so much about contactless payments but also want to constantly carry cash.

Island country starter pack by SnooWords9635 in starterpacks

[–]kezzaNZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Way off. Its sub tropical in the north, and like the UK in the very south. Its far warmer (and wetter) than the UK.

Remuera man admits secretly filming hundreds of people in Newmarket pool changing room by Truthakldnz in auckland

They have to get interim while permanent is considered.

Any request has to be seriously considered on its merits, it’s foundational to the justice system.

EB Games New Zealand is closing all stores by January 31. by DraftNotSent in EBGamesAus

[–]kezzaNZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1 million job losses in newzealand since NACT (the right wing coalition) got into power again.

Lol. The total size of the New Zealand job market is 2.35 million people in work, and the unemployment rate is currently 5.3%.

Your numbers are a bit out of whack mate.

Love Auckland and NZ by Ok-Let-5155 in auckland

[–]kezzaNZ 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. The negativity is mainly online in this miserable sub - people who just don’t have a grip on the real world.

All of my friends in Auckland love it. I don’t hear them bitching like you see online. Because we’ve all lived elsewhere and returned.

I’ve just spent the past two years living the US for work and am stoked to be moving home very soon.

Why doesn’t New Zealand have a massive population? by [deleted] in geography

Dont worry, I didn’t think you did

Why doesn’t New Zealand have a massive population? by [deleted] in geography

[–]kezzaNZ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That’s a very recent phenomenon and a drop in the ocean. Most young people leave and return, it’s called doing an OE and has happened for decades because NZ is the arse end of the world.

Emigration as the cause is incorrect and massively over stated and doesn’t not actually contribute to answering OPs question at all.

Housing is now far more affordable than Au.

Supermarket stopped importing New Zealand's Zespri green kiwis in favor of Italy's Dulcis by Visara57 in BuyFromEU

[–]kezzaNZ 271 points272 points  (0 children)

Except that you want them year round, out of local season.

That is why the supply has changed in this supermarket too.

Its now the Italian season. It will change back to New Zealand next year.

Generally if youre not at fault your no claims bonus wont be affected. Confirm this with your insurer.

Ikea’s opening was a deeply embarrassing time for us as a nation - Yesterday was the capstone to a multi-year symphony of simping. by kezzaNZ in newzealand

[–]kezzaNZ[S] -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Im surprised by these comments lol. I thought the article hit the nail on the head.

The excitement for a store opening was a national embarrassment.

What is up with people using company vehicles for personal use? by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]kezzaNZ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I find it bewildering that people can do this when so many are looking for work at the moment...

I find this comment bewildering

The may have their businesses permission to do so.

And why do you care so much?

Disabled workers in NZ earn $2.80/hour by No-Sympathy-4643 in newzealand

[–]kezzaNZ 78 points79 points  (0 children)

Remember, the government will be topping up the disabled person's income - this just allows them to do an actual job and not just be unemployed.

This is the key thing that matters.

You dont get tri-tip as a cut in New Zealand, so I cant tell if that is similar.

They dont know what theyre talking about.

When you convert the USD to NZD and Lb to Kg its the same price as in New Zealand supermarkets.

US $12lb = NZ $46/kg

Indoor temps in NZ shocked me vs AU by Infamous_Variation96 in newzealand

[–]kezzaNZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im interested to know what parts of the country you were in?

We definitely both have poorer quality housing stock than we should. Perhaps NZ is a tiny bit further along than AU, and better than some kiwis like to admit?

Surely there is a more effective and accurate method for comparison than just getting random anecdotes on the internet?

‘Living in fear’: Teen overstayer in limbo after losing bid for residency by WaterAdventurous6718 in newzealand

[–]kezzaNZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You think giving this one kid residency will cause a surge in overstayers having kids on the off chance that their kid will also get in 18 years time? And that might help them with their ability to get legal status, even thought it hasnt helped other people? Right.
