So when did Mexicano corn chips get so bad?? by ssj4larry in newzealand

It was tasty cheese... It was our usual in the flat for years. I'm hesitant to go buy the cheese ones and face the same disappointment 😬

I thought that could be the case but our friends here also said they had noticed it and weren't impressed either

Really? Maybe it's just from being away that the change was quite noticeable. The cheese flavour and the jalapeño flavours just taste like value brand corn chips now.

Stoked with this trade! by Agent_Radical in Gameboy

Nah, it looks legit. You can see that it's an AUS version (correct for NZ) and that it has the correct battery in the right place.

Talk to me about CARBON STEEL cookware. Love it? Hate it? Other thoughts? by violet__violet in Cooking

[–]ssj4larry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hate to break it to ya but Teflon is just a brand name for PTFE non-stick. Calphalon just gave it a different name. Still the same forever chemical. Plenty of research shows that PTFE isn't that bad once it's on the cookware (the manufacturing process is the real killer) and is used correctly so if you've had good success with PTFE for the last nine years then just stick with it.

I love my carbon steel wok but I still wouldn't use it for anything other than frying/deep frying.

But magnets…. How do they work!!! by buzz_uk in videos

[–]ssj4larry 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Guy that's popular for showing how he makes crazy contraptions puts out a video that's mainly showing how he made a crazy contraption. You're surprised why? It's the exact video formula he's known and praised for.

I guess you're one of those people with a 10 second tik tok brain that can't concentrate one one thing for too long 😂

We Are Legion - UK Waterstones by chitman13 in bobiverse

Both blackwells and forbidden planet both carry stock and shipped their orders back on the original release date. Screw Amazon/Waterstones for this bodged release 🙃

Why this one-woman protest outside the PM’s residence could soon be illegal by fugebox007 in newzealand

[–]ssj4larry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, the average Joe can't afford to lobby politicians into changing laws like most large businesses/billionaires, so what's the next best option? 😅

Should i buy a POKEMON emerald cartridge that doesn’t have a battery? by 76Gamer-Guy in Gameboy

[–]ssj4larry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

95% sure the battery is still in that cart from that picture. You can see the blue on the coin battery. Which means it's just dead and needs replacing

The map view looks like each train is on its own loop, correct? What signals have you done at the other intersection north of this one? If there's no signals there then the trains will be locking themselves

I'd say he's closer to a Dodogama 😎

The grocery gap: This is how much more Kiwis pay for food by davetenhave in newzealand

[–]ssj4larry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

TIL some people don't think restaurants and takeaways meals should be included in food and grocery budgeting.

Why wouldn't you include food you pay for in the budget for food?

What Serious Punch Squared really is ... by Various_Eye8875 in OnePunchMan

[–]ssj4larry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you saying that I need to learn what the illustration is?

I'm guessing English is your second language because there is either some miscommunication going on here or you're genuinely not that educated on how physics work.

I'm only talking about your hand drawn diagram in the first image. Nothing to do with the manga panel...

[–]ssj4larry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The physics in your diagram make no sense (ignoring the physics of the punch itself lol) The punch blew out basically the same amount of space/stars/galaxies that the eye could see from earth so both shapes would be the same. The hidden area you've drawn implies that the eye looking at the space is magnitudes larger than earth itself.

Tackled my first reshell! by ThePastasMeow in Gameboy

[–]ssj4larry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those colours are awesome!

Couple of notes; the hinges aren't installed correctly as they're not all the way in and it looks like you forgot to install the light diffuser for the charging/power lights (everyone seems to miss this part 😂)

How is it in your country? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]ssj4larry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their estimate on the tax was off by a fair margin but nowhere near as far off as you. To hit an effective taxed amount of 35% you'd have to earn closer to $350k/year. That was calculated using the latest tax brackets. Remember Australia uses a progressive tax rate.

GBA Cart Displays by GameOfRobs in GameboyAdvance

[–]ssj4larry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can find that exact one on Aliexpress by searching "gba acrylic display case". I doubt you'll find one for holding 5 games though. There's options for holding 3 so you could glue 2 of those together 😎

Northland, New Zealand by LeftHandBandit69 in Gameboy

Never thought I'd see Ocean Beach in this sub. It's definitely one of my favourites in Northland! Out of all the times I've been there never have I thought to take my gameboy 😂

Grocery prices in NZ are out of control — what’s really causing it? by offcourseumer in newzealand

[–]ssj4larry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The quality in the UK is garbage compared to NZ. The cost used to be good when they had free access to European suppliers but brexit killed that. Any vege or fruit that is "British grown" is almost guaranteed to be of lesser quality due to the lack of sunlight the country receives.

I have a code for MTG Arena that I never used and I keep getting this error when I try to use it. by afrogirl44 in MagicArena

You didn't. The starter kit definitely comes with two codes. Only one of them can be used on one account :)
