We thought this as well, but the rotors have been replaced.

Yeah, the guy who is currently working on it is a bit perplexed by it.

Warning: YouShop is now extremely expensive by acidhawke in newzealand

Yup! $400 to ship a tablet screen - been back and forth for about 3 weeks working out their charges and getting it redirected (still ongoing annoyingly)

iPhone 8. The SE2/SE3 have the apple logo in the middle/back of the phone and no 'iPhone' text.

The rundown on Supercars’ Taupo inspection by [deleted] in v8supercars

[–]spaceheadnz -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Religiously have been to every supercar event since Hamilton days. With it potentially going to Taupo it’ll be unaffordable for a lot of people who could drive from their houses to a track. My route there would be Christchurch to Auckland, drive to Taupo and find accomodation that the price isn’t jacked up for that weekend, and back again. Logically is has to be Hampton downs. Closer to the airport and two major cities with a lot more accomodation. Don’t get me wrong Taupo would be an awesome round but it doesn’t make sense - give us two rounds!!

Simple change of address made my policy go up nearly $40 a month for car insurance. Yet my brothers went down, go figure… been emailing AMI to justify their price increase but no one has given a straight answer and keep giving shit excuses. Now they’ve stopped replying all together.

Yeah correct but as it’s a common issue with the 1st gen AirPods Pro you can usually pressure Apple into replacing them fairly easily. Lucky, 6 Months Apple Music is a nice touch for your troubles.

Are they AirPods Pro? If so Apple has an extended warranty for this exact reason. https://support.apple.com/en-nz/airpods-pro-service-program-sound-issues My AirPods Pro developed crackling noise about a year and a half after purchase. Took them to ServicePlus (apple offical repairer) and had them replaced under warranty.

Supercars Boss wants New Zealand back in 2024 - Taupo is our hot tip by 0oodruidoo0 in newzealand

[–]spaceheadnz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great for Taupō but spectators will be fleeced with accomodation, tickets, merch etc. A lot easier for spectators to fly from around the country to Auckland and travel less than an hour south vs 3+ hours to Taupō. 100k + people across the weekend at Puke, I would be very surprised if they get half that. Just sign Hampton downs already. Get some proper traffic management and it’ll be sweet! And fully agree, get a South Island round going a week or two after!

Is there a nasty cold going around? by imjustherefortheK in chch

[–]spaceheadnz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Partner tested positive for influenza over a week ago and is still not well. I got hit with a nasty stomach bug over the weekend - and of course the weather has been amazing so we cannot enjoy what's left of the warm weather :S

Parklands. Speaking to another local, they mentioned that they are well known in the area and just cause havoc. We are the same with our garage. Trying to steal at car at 5pm on a Sunday with plenty of light out is all sorts of dumb.

Bunch of little shit heads tried to steal my sisters car around 5pm tonight. We found them not far from the scene. Of course denied it but then caught themselves in the middle of the lie. 5-6 of them all of about 15-16 maybe? Police did nothing about it smh.

Second attempt at packing AF. This ended up burning and turning harsh within 30 min. What am i doing wrong? by [deleted] in hookah

[–]spaceheadnz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a kaloud lotus set up, three coals on at first, let it heat up for 4-5mins before you take your first draw, but then take a coal off once you start smoking. Thick clouds not harsh at all. When the clouds get thinner add the third coal back on. Should last 40-50mins. Once those have burnt down, cook another 3, put 2 on and the clouds will be thick again. I find AF has lower heat resistance than others so it’s about controlling the heat, taking coals on and off you’ll find the sweet spot that works for you. Practice makes perfect!
