Oh neat. Unlikely to happen here, I think.

The annual fucking of Wellington commuter trains by icy overhead lines has begun. If only there was some kind of power source nearby that could be tapped into and used to deice the lines...

So much work at work. Good thing they're paying me for it.

Idiots badmouthing someone who clearly knows how to file an OIA on a platform subject to OIA requests.

That said I've had the displeasure of dealing with fishing expedition OIAs and ones where the question is nearly impossible to answer because the person asking either expressed it poorly or deeply misunderstands the thing they're asking about.

Thanks for the warning. Luckily my passport is good for several years yet. It's gonna be weird going from early spring to early autumn though.

Bought my tickets to go visit my family in September. Spending that much always freaks me out even though I know I can afford it

Not that I love meth but I suspect if people could buy it in shops and bars the costs would be equivalently high.

This won't make me dislike ACT more but that's only because I'm already at max dislike.

I'm thinking it doesn't matter what we think, it matters which one could accrue expensive court costs. Because "false claim" is specific and provable, "lied" is murky and general. When it comes to libel and slander lawsuits, the legal system runs on semantics and pedantry.

Why should they open themselves to that kind of legal system enabled retribution? After all, we all know whose pants are on fire.
