NZ First MPs keep proposing laws they have no intention of passing, and the media falls for it every time. thespinoff.co.nz/politics/06-...

Critical issue with BC platform this morning in NZ - unable to deploy any PTE or Global apps, error returned is "ServiceUnavailable" #BC #MSDYN365BC

Hey @ingress.com what happened with double AP 1st Saturday? Was announced but does not work in New Zealand?

This Labour Day, Aotearoa, try to live up to the dignified and respectable example of those worthy workers who first banded together in 1840 and politely requested to work only an 8-hour day. Then threw anyone who crossed the line into the harbour

Friends in New Zealand. This is the first of several international dates soon to be announced. @mattdinniman.bsky.social is going to be busy! anznews.livenation.com/news/matt-di...

I guess I'll have to also make a business informed choice not to buy the game until it includes the DLCs for free.

On our 2nd day in New Zealand we came to the library and got library cards for all 4 of us. It was then and until closure a warm safe space in the city, where we would stop and unwind (and load up on books). I missed it and will be happy when it is back!

The fact that the thing we're calling artificial intelligence *can't do math* and yet we're jamming it into programs that successfully *have done math* for decades, then warning people against using the AI to do math, seems like an excellent summary of where we are.

If you go to check your enrolment on vote.nz and find that the website claims you are not enrolled: before you freak out, delete the "city" and "postcode" optional fields and try again Autocollete broke this for me It's bad website UX, but not evidence of fuckery

NZ gave citizenship to Peter fucking Thiel... I think we more than owe it to ourselves to make an offer to Stephen Colbert.

Hi! I have two free copies of THE SUNFORGE and one free copy of THE DAWNHOUNDS to give away. You must have a New Zealand postal address. To enter, just retweet this with a quote from your favourite SF/F released in the last five years.

Idk but it feels like JuCo claiming the reason the penalties for TPM were so extraordinarily severe was that it was argued they could have intimidated MPs in their votes, when in fact the votes had already been recorded, should be a fucking big deal.

If Andrew Little wants to dictate what does and doesn’t happen in wellington I suggest Andrew Little first becomes mayor.

Bernard Hickey: The Govt’s retrospective law wrecks 33 pay equity deals. $17 billion in wages & back-pay will not now go to over 150,000 workers. That means the $14 billion of tax cuts going mostly to landlords & highest earners are being paid for by wage cuts for the poorest NZers, mostly women.

Protect pay equity.

One last LLM AI post. For the night In general, history has not been kind to people who have argued some variation on, “ignoring the moral dimension for a moment, lets talk about the utility of (X).” It’s frequently not an immediate kind of judgment, but it is an inexorable one.

This petition to stop NZ First's stupid sex definitions bill has been open for nearly a week and has 1.2k signatures The hate group's petition that spawned this bill took four months to get 2.2k signatures Let's show just how little hate there is petitions.parliament.nz/cc70b2c2-cfd...

Seen elsenet and worth repeating: J. K. Rowling is just Andrew Tate for white women.

You think you know, but you do not. The horror when you do.

What we need is for everyone to talk like this the moment one of these losers starts their stupid culture war bullshit.

Hold your horses and stop creating support tickets, calling for an immediate meeting, or assigning new tasks to your Dev team to look into. You can ignore these e-mails, as they were triggered due to an issue with Microsoft's validation process. #MSDyn365BC #Microsoft

Extraordinary scenes in Serbia’s capital Belgrade right now. Around 500,000 people are on the streets in what may be the biggest protest in Serbian history. All demanding the resignation of President Vučić & his government. What began as a student protest is now a full democratic uprising. 🇷🇸

Budapest today. People are demanding that PM Orban resign.

My boys? Pet shop.

I now understand the elders from states that no longer exist, or exist only in a skeletal sense, who go on + on about how great it used to be, we had the best universities, the best doctors, etc etc. I get the fixation now. You have to keep talking about it or everyone will forget it was ever real

Well I've heard there was a crime wave high Muggings mysterious, in N.Y. But you don't think the cops will light this darkest hour Salvation comes with ninja kicks Cold pizza, nunchucks, swords and sticks The teenage four displaying Turtle Power Turtle Power, Turtle Power Turtle Power, Turtle Power

Every single thing I read from this list was mindblowingly good - I have no doubt others are too!

#POE2 first impressions: Server problems ongoing. What little I managed to play seems quite fun and reactive. Had random people show up in our party and could not kick them. Game hung when loading Clearfell - on restart, ended up in another queue 8k long.

In the US, a health problem can bankrupt you. This is the misery Seymour and Reti want us to have.

Boss: Good news, I’m giving you a raise! You: Wow, thank you sir! Boss: Your salary is now $181k pa. You: I don’t know what to say! Boss: How about “goodbye”? You’re fired.

Hi, I am Jurica. I have such a gift for math but I am such a lazy bum.

ladies and gentlemen (and bot clones of taylor swift) i give you... ...baby wallace shawn.

incredible work by this sign-holder popping up just as TVNZ crossed live to the hikoi

Bahahahahahahahaha this petition now has more votes than ACT

Submissions have opened on the Treaty Principles Bill. You'll almost certainly see a lot of individuals and groups with big followings telling you to submit using a template that they provide. I am pleading with you to not do this. It's the least effective way to participate.

Petition against Act's bill is going to outstrip the total number of people who voted Act in probably the next hour or so.
