Not sure you were asking advice, so I won't push any on you. Agree it sucks tho

Oh well take it out of the case then

I've been idly browsing local Facebook listings for second hand gear and the same shit sits there for months priced about what I paid for similar stuff years ago - sometimes higher

We've loved our window vac, WV2 I think, for sucking condensation off the windows. Way less mess and faster job overall than squeegee plus towel and even sucks it up off the sill. Maybe not a smart buy for how expensive it is, but over however many years of mopping up windows... worth

My understanding is that allowing disinformation to proliferate, even downvoted to oblivion, is still a chance to hook someone in to that thinking if they already see themselves as marginalised.

While pushing back, or removing will not work to reprogram true believers it will protect those vulnerable to misinformation

Gardens comes to mind. Not thanking the driver.

Capital punishment worthy stuff generally

Monkey smashing their refresh on keyboard thinking maybe it's an unplanned outage probably

Don't be afraid to invite people if based upon their observed behaviour you think they'll be a good fit.

In my mind it sort of falls in the camp of if you want the job then that's a potential sign you're not best suited!

Hello! I am new here, and likely so are you.

It's great to see local communities online - and a great time to shape how we'd like to go on.

I'd love to hear people's thoughts on a display name change from Wellington to The Whanaganui-a-Tara.

This would not change the URL, or stop people finding us by searching Wellington.

Tell us what you think... Go!

Lemmy in Te Wai Pounamu (self.southisland)
submitted 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago) by batwingnz to c/southisland

Yo! I'm from the other island (the better one if I'm honest).

I was wondering if changing the display name of each local Lemmy is palatable to the people from there.

This would not change the URL, and would still be searchable with it's anglophone alias.

So... what are your thoughts on a new display name to Te Wai Pounamu or Te Waipounamu before you get too used to the current one?

Or as I said, I'm an imposter so perhaps mu suggestion is not the best or even the second best one.

Edit: I have no skin in the game so if y'all reach a consensus, or want to progress this further reach out to a friendly admin

Heyheyhey Lemmy.NZ

Throw out your preferred app, preferably with a link.

Asking for this here because many reddit refugees from the great third party app purge may not look out of the federation or find apps as easy to find as before.

Expecting there to be a load on f-droid, izzy etc?
