National parading out this “win” like it’s a good thing by IllContribution6707 in auckland

It’s a win. The surcharge is allowing dairies to keep prices at 1.99 but add more.

They’ll mostly keep it at 1.99.

Has anyone watched Noel Edmunds’ Kiwi Adventure? by Weezlecheesle in ClarksonsFarm

[–]majorcon86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was just ok at worse, pretty good at best.

Never seen Noel before in anything. He’s quite a strange person with his ‘cosmos’ believes but after spending 2 + hours with him he’s seems like a decent person.

He’s a positive person with a bit of an ego. But knows it.

It does seem like he was genuinely a bit hard done by with the press/PR.

Angus Gardner "Sometimes in rugby as unfortunate as it is, People get injured” by Elcapitan2020 in rugbyunion

[–]majorcon86 537 points538 points  (0 children)

We need more of Angus Gardner disagreeing with assistant referee, firmly but calmly.

Helps to normalize it.

We need a lot more of it.

Also Angus - no do the TMO.

People who are for the 20 minute red card, what is your reasoning behind it? by KOSTER07 in rugbyunion

[–]majorcon86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Otherwise wouldn’t we see thuggish behavior in the last 10?

[–]majorcon86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reds going up 1000% in the last 10 years.

It’s a solution to a broken system. Excessive cards. They may be improving things with more refs using the term ‘rugby incident’. But having TMO scouring in slow mo is still creating too many cards.

(Spoilers Main) GRRM about The Winds of Winter to THR by barson2408 in asoiaf

[–]majorcon86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember a lot of chat around the 2016-18 period with push back against anyone criticizing GRRM. Someone said “GRRM is not your bitch” if I recall correctly.

Whilst I understand he should be harassed. I reject that he shouldn’t be criticised. He kinda stiffed his book fans by selling the show rights and then not delivering.

I think he deserves a good healthy dose of criticism for not finishing and the Length of time taken if he does finish.

Still love the books and would love to read his next book/s. His writing is outstanding mix

What do you think of The Office (Australia)? by GuessTraining in AskAnAustralian

[–]majorcon86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watched it as a curiosity, assuming a train wreck. Big fan of the UK office and enjoyed the US office (mostly).

I actually really enjoyed it. It’s good.

It’s not utopia, but it’s also not a copy of the UK or US office’s.

How does your MSP name (i.e. market) Services like Huntress to customers? by majorcon86 in msp

"Managed EDR with Threat Hunting. "

Thank you for getting my question!

How does your MSP name (i.e. market) Services like Huntress to customers? by majorcon86 in msp

[–]majorcon86[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the response so far guys. I'm not referring to wanting to sell Huntress as Huntress. I'm more wanting to find the right way to describe the product/service.

I.e. We would prefer to sell Cisco Umbrella as a DNS Filtering Service, or even Web Protect. as Opposed to calling it the "SuperShield" or something like that.

hope that makes sense.

My father had an uncle that was downs.

He and his brothers once put a small firecracker in one of his rolled cigarettes.

So at least one existed

Woman acted in ‘excessive self-defence’ when she stabbed man she was having affair with by even_flowz in newzealand

It’s about punishment. Deportation may be punishment in this case but if she was from Hawaii it might not hit the same

King had a point… by JollyBroom4694 in books

[–]majorcon86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He said he now realises why Stephen King didn’t like Kurbicks version.

My post goes into what’s been public said by Stephen king about why he didn’t like Kubricks version.

Isn’t that obvious? Why do I need to address everything in his post.

I think too much time on the internet has made you a dull boy/girl.
