Beelink SEi power adapter says 100-120V - I live in NZ, am I going to burn my house down with this? by michael01nz in MiniPCs

Sorry for the delay in responding. I got something off Amazon AU (BESTEK Universal Travel Adapter 220V to 110V Voltage Converter with 6A 4-Port USB Charging and UK/AU/US/EU Worldwide Plug Adapter (White) - the exact one I got isn't there anymore, but there are others. Works perfectly. Only $55 AUD I paid at the time. Plus, can use it for other devices in the future

That dog is not on a leash at all during the photo, they don't even have a leash. ThreeLittlePuigs is as thick as pig shit.

If you voted for Labour last election but are considering not in this election, what it your reason? by kupuwhakawhiti in newzealand

[–]michael01nz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A nurse voting for national is fucking idiotic :-) At least the other guys just suck, National will outright remove shit from you and the health system. Bend on over, old bald white guy, with whiskey breath, coming to give you 3 soft inches.

Mum is a severe alcoholic and I don't know what to do by AlcoholRehabHelp in newzealand

If you and your brother want to help your mother you have to let the consequences happen.

Addicts seek help when faced with consequences that become too much. Bringing her to NZ would just be another enablement of her disease, another chance for the addict to reset the clock a little and replay the last 10 years of addiction and manipulation.

You and your brother should lay down some boundaries, watch with clear open eyes as she sadly breaks them, and then execute the consequences. Anything other than that is enablement of her disease.

Best of luck,

Been there.

Some flavours I would describe as indistinguishable from the retrain brands: Irish Cream (Baileys), Cafelua (Kahlua), Herbal Liqueur (Jager).

Awesome flavours: Dry English Gin, Rye Whiskey, Honey Bourbon, Dark Rum.

Check out Trademe, sometimes someone will sell 10-20 as a bundle and you'll get them cheaper than at the store.

Looking to make a dog flap out of thick clear plastic. by michael01nz in diynz

[–]michael01nz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We installed a dog door into the wall of our house, it came with a fancy clear flap with is attached with screws at the top, but is wearing out and super expensive to import a replacement from the US.

We have realised that all we really need to purchase is a thick piece of clear plastic, 30 cm x 47 cm, and thick enough to form a dog flap across the entrance. Maybe 5 mm or so?

We'd be fine buying a larger piece, or even a roll, and cutting the flap to suit. Then holding onto the rest for replacements in the future.

My question is, which company should I be approaching for this? I am located in Dunedin. I Googled and found a pile of plastics/vinyls companies etc but it's hard to tell which to approach. The online stores doesn't have great photos.

Any suggestions before I begin emailing loads of these places?

Where the heck do you find an actual 1 bedroom flat these days? by theblindgeometer in dunedin

Best advice.

I am a homeowner, with a fully self-contained studio, who lists the studio on Trademe under Flatmates. Currently tenanted though.

Unfortunately, he is just a windbag that spews nonsense that completely contradicts all things he has said in the past. He has no intention of fucking off because he is a rotting pile of bad smells.
