I agree with you, and I think it’s interesting to look at why there is a short term uptick in youth crime.

Congrats mate! Thank you for all your hard work on maintaining this little piece of the internet for us!

But the ambiguity comes from the crown ignoring the original, Te Reo document, in favour of the translates English version, then ignoring that as well.

There was a protest that blocked traffic in my town, a couple of months back. I was caught in it while returning to work after making a delivery.

It lasted 5 minutes and then I was on my way. They were polite the whole time, and I was polite back. I literally lost 5 minutes, who cares.

I don’t get the problem.

Exactly. The fact that they went ahead with these tax cuts shows they cannot be trusted to be ‘fiscally responsible’

I mean… She’s not exactly wrong…

I want these to become a thing, because they’re awesome. But I doubt it actually will.

Plus, there are much more efficient ways to move large numbers of people. Still, ground affect craft are neat.

Too right mate

The amount of time these people spend thinking about other people’s toilet habits is hilarious.

Appallingly transparent.

Regardless of what the truth is around this article, the more Te Reo used by the public sector the better.

I’ve learned more Te Reo in the last 6 years than I have in the rest of my life, including primary school. And this is a good thing!

Horrible. I will vote for any party that commits to throttling political donations.

Hell, I reckon all parties should get a fixed amount for advertising and promotion during the election, paid for by the electoral commission and fees parties pay!

Thanks for the reply mate!

I didn’t think to mess with z-hop - I’ll give that a go, and I’ll do some testing to make sure the Bowden is seated correctly and the wipe on retract is actually happening - thanks!

The print in the image is a ‘torture test’, and just something I had on hand to illustrate the issue. I’m actually not fussed if there is still some stringing at the top, but other detailed prints were getting it pretty bad, including retraction towers.

They obviously don’t, because you’re literally the only one here trying to argue the messenger and not the message.

I don’t care about the tone, I don’t think they are serious, I think they are using hyperbole to bring attention to the issue. They are a minor party, I doubt we would be talking about it otherwise.

I am capable of engaging in the discussion without focussing only on the tone of message and dismissing everything else.

It’s not a particularly nuanced statement in the first place, is it?

You know full well what their intent is with this rhetoric. You know full well the point they are trying to raise. The fact that you insist on arguing about the messenger and tone of message shows you don’t want to engage with the problem being raised in good faith.

Hmm, sync posted the reply as a top level comment. Weird.

No nuance with you huh?

If you think that’s the message TPM is trying to get across, then you are dumber than I gave you credit.

Fuck this noise. This government is exhausting.
