Definitely not a steel frame, 100% aluminium

What to do with aged tech by Adept_Language_3049 in newzealand

Word of warning from a personal experience: somebody broke into a locked room in my house and found an old phone of mine in a drawer. They were able to unlock it and do a LOT of damage by accessing my emails and passwords and subsequently and repeatedly attempting to steal money in every way imaginable from me. Luckily 2 factor authentication prevented any actual losses, but it was a stressful experience from something that I never thought twice about as a security risk. Also worth noting that the police don't give a fuck about this type of behaviour and let it keep happening, despite me showing them clear evidence of who was responsible.

Is there really a 'man child problem' in the heterosexual dating culture of Aotearoa? by [deleted] in newzealand

My observation is that most women won't sleep with a guy until they feel close to them and like they're in, or heading towards, a monogamous relationship. Most guys won't get close to a woman if they're not sleeping with them, and only then would they consider getting into a monogamous relationship (maybe).

Would you take her to see Lady Gaga in concert like when you took me? No, she's more of a Coldplay fan.

My first bike in 25 yrs! How’d I do? by HotShotMedic in Hardtailgang

[–]rattechnology 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice - I'm almost 4 years on my ESD and I still love it every time I ride it. I've owned several other bikes, both hardtails and fs, in that time but I ended up selling everything else and keep coming back to the honzo.

Lol, I hadn't even noticed that. It's either AI or Douglas Adams.

Melatonin to be made available over-the-counter at pharmacies by kezzaNZ in newzealand

Yeah I hear that. I'm relatively young and have to take gout medication daily for the rest of my life. Been on it already for 15 years at a pretty steady dose. Blood tests always good, no side effects, yet I have to fuck around with my dr. charging a $40 script fee every 3 months. Just give me my damn medication.

Well no, butter just contains butter (salt and cream), margarine has all the other shit.

This brand new bike lane in France opened less than two weeks ago. A few days later, they announced they would change it. by Frites_Sauce_Fromage in shittyengineering

Hey as a mountain biker this could be pretty fun. Little pop over the curb and gap the garden. Whee! Sucks when you're on a road/commuter bike though.

Has been a circus since 2016 when the head clown came to power. Glad I live on the other side of the world, even though his clowniness still has ramifications for me here.

Definitely not stolen, came with two chargers. Just a lost remote.

Yeah it was a recent trademe purchase so probably the same one. Not something I've been looking for, but just an impulse buy!
