Why do people dislike pineapple on pizza?
It is pretty good, especially if you add a nice hot sauce to it.
Key was the worst PM of this century, though Luxon is trying to delve deeper.
The economic model would have to be based on energy supply.
But assuming the replicators were perfect to the atomic level; making the parts for power generation would be easy. But the fuel would still have to be found / collected / mined.
Assuming that fusion is the most common type of energy generation; hydrogen fusion would probably be the dominant form of energy generation. Hydrogen collection would be a huge industry, but it also could be fully automated.
While the economic model may not be noticed by the majority; it would still be there.
Xi knows xi’s pronouns are confusing, so xi would like to put xi’s pronouns in xi’s displayname to clear things up.
Reading this is a little confusing; I am trying to map the pronoun to the usual grammatical structure and it is difficult.
It would be good if there was another line in this image for 3rd person, gender neutral pronouns.
What should be in that imaginary line
Looks exactly like the cursed item - Unreliable Power Source!
I love that Master Boot Record, implies that at some point a group of Artificer-Cobblers created the "Master Boots"; a set of legendary items so powerful that a magical record was also created to track their whereabouts, lest they fall into the wrong hands.
Variable name - 7th level wizard spell.
For the next 24hours; nothing about the targets identity may be discovered by magical or mundane means. Anyone inquiring about the target has a plausible and consistent story placed in their mind instead; it doesn't matter what the target tells them or what they see.
Someone with the Truesight ability; will know that there is magical concealment active, but will be unable to discern any details about the target.
I cast CVE-2015-0565 at the goblin horde.
I cast atomization on the giant. (9th level warlock spell)
On a failed save the targets head evaporates killing them outright.
On a success roll a d4 (or higher for higher number of limbs) and the limb clockwise from the head evaporates. Dealing either 25% or 150HP which ever is higher damage.
Agile development would be a killer monk ability
Yep.
The highest DC voltage I have been near is around 1000V, it didn't buzz, but 1000V AC also doesn't buzz....
Maybe, but he can also rip your arm off and beat you to death with it.....
When wrestling with a toddler, your stance doesn't really matter.
In some way it is comforting, you know the power is where it is supposed to be... Walking around a 11kV switchyard that buzz is good.
Yes, but I believe you about the fart.
At approx 3kV/mm, you would have to be pretty close to a 10kV fence.
Humidity plays a big role as does the frequency that the fence is running on. But you would be pretty safe standing a meter away, on that dry sunny day in the picture.
Also above a point, the high voltage causes the conductors to buzz.
Agreed.
And the causes are probably broadly similar; lack of education about how to cook, lack of time to cook, lack of education on healthy food, too much food advertising, ultra-processed foods are too common, healthy foods are expensive....
Green co-leader Chlöe Swarbrick says the party welcomes the ruling and will now consider its next steps.
I wonder what option the greens will have from here.
What arsehole teachers.
I empathize with the mum, worrying about the government cutting the program.... They will be looking for any excuse
Inland Revenue is giving hundreds of thousands of taxpayers' details to social media platforms for marketing.
What the actual fuck!

Analysis - Artificial intelligence-enabled cameras on billboards, in bus windshields, on petrol station forecourts and in the checkout at the supermarket - all these are here, or about to be.

As the title says.
If you don't know the discworld books by Pratchett, Granny Weatherwax it the most formidable character. She is a witch, but doesn't generally use magic to solve problems; preferring to use persuasion and manipulation. In saying that her magic is extremely powerful.
Maybe a bard with huge wisdom, persuasion and intimidation.
Many struggling cinemas depend on sales of pricey food and drink as ticket revenue mainly goes to film studios. But does banning outside supplies really add up, asks Stuart Heritage
Just wow!
What a psycho.

New research shows high levels of teacher anxiety and frustration over legal liability and paperwork for school trips. But there are ways to maintain this crucial part of the curriculum.
I'd hate to see the school trips decline.
Delft, The Netherlands - 18 July 2024 Electric propulsion systems (EP) have gained popularity in the low Earth orbit (LEO) propulsion market over the last decade, largely due to their lower launch costs. This is driven by their relatively high fuel efficiency (specific impulse - Isp) which reduces

Casey Costello's order to halve the tax is "something that tobacco companies would have been keen to see," an expert says.
Not sure if this is a good thing or not.
HTP's may help stop smoking, or just as likely (in my opinion) increase the rate of people starting.
Seems like a win for the tobacco industry either way.
Dawn Aerospace is poised to begin supersonic testing of its Mk-II Aurora spaceplane.
Dawn aerospace looking good
Tana has resigned from the Green Party and may remain in Parliament, despite the party having demanded she quit as an MP.
She should be removed from parliament, now that the investigation has concluded and she was found to be corrupt....get rid of her.
"Look, there's no accidental monopoly. They are a ruthless competitor."
Pretty cool interview with Sir Peter
Nobby Clark is in the spotlight again after he allegedly mocked and disrespected attendees at an awards dinner.
Wow
On Friday, Luxon said previous business delegations overseas had been "watered down" and a "C-list".
Luxon with foot-in-mouth disease again
DIsney has announced the big names of the new Moana Live-Action movie with three Kiwis in the main group of characters.
Super cool. I was excited to see Frankie Adams in the cast, loved her in the expanse. But was even more excited to see Rena Owen as Gramma Tala....perfect casting.
Premier says move will end the ‘nexus between money and political power’ and challenges state and federal counterparts to follow suit
When can we get this?
J Swap gave money to Shane Jones, and then to NZ First after it got into power. Now the company is asking for protected land to be opened for quarrying.
This fast track to corruption bill, is more worrying than the budget...
