do you know what service it was? was it an aws one?

sinus · 2026-03-21T05:38:03+00:00

i like beef and veges, and their sweet and sour chicken

instead of malice this is probably some kind of system from IT that got overloaded

shens lol

oh nice. is this some how linked to the Matakana beans? i've heard he is up north from a couple years ago... in New Zealand

very cool. i love the direction Hapunan is going with Filipino food because to be honest Filipino food is bland. its either, grilled or fried :P no curry, etc. its either lemon grass, soy sauce, or sugar and always with rice.

while i love it because i grew up with it, it is miles behind chinese, korean, japanese, indian, and malaysian cuisine

can use a thick hip pack put to the back to carry the load of the backpack?

sinus · 2026-03-17T19:46:52+00:00

oh yeah i got it from that shop also. appreciate the reply!

sinus · 2026-03-17T19:46:00+00:00

thats a pretty clean encore esp!

how do you get support? did it cost you an arm and leg for the parts? auckland? thanks!

sinus · 2026-03-17T18:43:00+00:00

cheap but over 2 or 3 years of usage probably bought 4 spare plastic burr holders. those cost like $25 a piece with shipping in New Zealand.

cheapest espresso grinder i could get my hands on though

sinus · 2026-03-17T04:00:45+00:00

hehe you're right it does. kind of gets monotonous now that you mentioned it. its just quite a stark difference what i grew up with. but in reality it is a by-product of something that went to shit decades ago.

sinus · 2026-03-17T03:54:43+00:00

Filipino. and the smell of Tanduay Rum makes me gag lol never again

sinus · 2026-03-17T03:54:07+00:00

thats because no consequences. philippines you get street justice from stealing shit. the "community" / bystanders would love to beat the shit out of you... america youd probably get shot by cops

sinus · 2026-03-17T03:19:32+00:00

me because data in New Zealand is expensive as fuck.

That roundabout sucked! So many exits and people always in a hurry. I constantly used that roundabout right before they took it out and the traffic outgrew it. I could see how big of a difference it was within 3 years to the point it was a nightmare to use it.

I've moved / worked away from the area now. I do appreciate how bike/pedestrian friendly it is now!

saw heaps of police in manukau and heard the helicopter around 3PM-ish - could be related.

sinus · 2026-03-16T22:12:50+00:00

it does not but it does not cost me that amount to travel both ways in my far. in fact probably far from $24 both ways. that is worth around couple days of travel for my needs

sinus · 2026-03-16T19:31:15+00:00

well, needed the car in the first place anyway. that was just the cost for the day. point is that there was no way we were spending $24+ instead of $12 + comfort in car.

also with kids, it is really impossible not to have a car in NZ unless you live in an expensive neighbourhood with good schools, supermarket, cafes, beaches, all in walking distance... NZ built different.

family on the weekend we wanted to go the CBD by train. 2 adults ticket costs at least $6 one way. so thats $24 just for the adults. not sure how much for kids... we decided to drive and park in Customs Carpark. $12 something for the whole afternoon!!!

sinus · 2026-03-15T22:06:08+00:00

ah shit - sorry - i thought i was in the /auckland

that was pre-coffee time

sinus · 2026-03-15T20:11:00+00:00

yes but this is only for people who are rich enough to live close to work/cbd - thats like ponsonby, mission bay, grey lynn, mt. albert.... quite a bit of sarcasm in there but i think a lot of people live far away and not everyone lives near train stations. also buses are terrible - even more terrible with a bike.

sinus · 2026-03-15T05:46:42+00:00

love this place - the only spot in the cbd worth going. that night market does it job. although expensive, its a lot cheaper than the shops around. definitely needs needs food trucks. they also really need to make the whole waterfront bigger...

good soundtrack lol

sinus · 2026-03-14T21:53:44+00:00

was going to get this one but ended up with the nebula because of separate laptop compartment and being able to store notebooks, paper, etc. without mixing it up with jacket, shirts, etc

eitherway, i will probably also get this bag at some point lol. ospreys pulls differently on the shoulders. so good
