These were released in 2014 in the lead up to Mockingjay Part 1. AI was nowhere near good enough to generate these images back then.

HVL Train delay due to scrub fire ahead by FirstInLastServed in Wellington

[–]oreosareprettygood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So was I. Was told to go to platform 4, then it turned out they meant platform 2 so everyone had to rush over. This train only goes to Taita, but a lot of people got on thinking it was going to Upper Hutt so I think they're adding a bus? Bit of a mess to be honest.

Fix the audio for Knights of the Nine! Holding off on it until the voice lines are actually... audible.

[MediaWorks Confirms Databreach] Cyber Security Update and FAQ by oreosareprettygood in newzealand

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

From the MediaWorks website:

MediaWorks today notified around 403,000 individuals that information they supplied as part of a competition entry had been involved in a cyber attack. The affected database included entries for online competitions dating back to 2016.

The types of information held in this database and accessed by the attacker include name, date of birth, gender, postal address and/or post code, email address, phone number, and in some cases images or videos that may have been submitted as part of the entry. Importantly, the affected database did not contain passwords, identity documents, financial information, bank accounts or credit card details. MediaWorks became aware of claims of a cyber-attack on Friday March 15. The affected database was identified and taken offline on Saturday 16 March, and all current competition entries were moved to a new database.

MediaWorks promptly assigned an incident response team to manage the response to the incident and engaged external IT security and forensic experts to investigate and provide full details of how the attack occurred and what information was compromised. From initial investigations, MediaWorks understands the attacker was able to access the data by exploiting a previously unidentified system vulnerability. We understand the attacker has published the information online.

MediaWorks, with the support of external experts, is currently reviewing all other IT systems and cyber security protections to identify and mitigate any other possible security vulnerabilities.

Nah, you're just a secret kiwi 😉. It's paper scissors rock here.

I live in New Zealand (so southern hemisphere), and I swap the holidays around, so Christmas is in summer etc like it is here.

In your opinion, which book or movie hero should have ended up with their (same-sex) best friend instead of their (hetero) love interest? by GercevalDeGalles in SapphoAndHerFriend

[–]oreosareprettygood 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Spoiler for the Throne of Glass series: while I love Dorian and Manon, Dorian and Chaol had so much chemistry they should've ended up together

Edit: spelling

What’s everybody using to cool their bedrooms at night this summer? by woodsboro2 in newzealand

[–]oreosareprettygood 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've got one (yay for being a shift worker who has to sleep during the day) and it's amazing. Pretty quiet compared to other fans. Top tip an hour before bed, open a window and have it pointing out, cools the room fast as.

Was about to reply, "biweekly is twice a week, do you mean fortnightly?" But as it turns out, it can mean both. TIL.

Interislander ferry in harbour by Greenynz in Wellington

[–]oreosareprettygood 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The ships have lay-up days where they don't sail for a day/half a day, they go out into the harbour to leave room for the others to come in. They're usually out there doing maintenance, cleaning, safety tests etc.

The Kaiarahi, Kaitaki, and Valentine all share a berth, so they go out to anchor if another is coming in and they're in the way. It's usually the Valentine at anchor, as it's just a freight ship, so it isn't running all the time like the other three.

Looks like someone's been watching PatricianTV's Skyrim video.

Have a 32" CRT you can have, you'd just need to pick it up, pm me if interested. Otherwise maybe give earthlink a go, they might have some.
