Wrong again. Very wrong. The bill which was negotiatied over several months and passed through the Senate was NOT passed by the House as the Speaker refused to bring it forward, on Donald Trump's orders. Get some facts in ya before gobbing off numbnuts!

Calling bullshit. You're full of crap, while you misquote and cherry-pick to sensationalise your own source whereas what that very same source really said was... ------------------------------------------------- Key Takeaways The U.S. inflation rate shows the change in prices...

EEK, you can't see MSNBC on YouTube in Australia, but we can here in NZ? I find it hard to believe that MSNBC would block their own channel in Au. What is your government protecting you from that it it so afraid of? The truth? You could try searching for " Lawrence O’Donnell explains how Donald...

Just imagine being compelled to sit in a court room and listen to two women repeatedly referring to yourself as "the orange turd." And one of them is your lawyer!

I experienced a similar effect after one of my hernia ops, a Dorris plum. I'm gusessing @hademall received a full set (pair)? :p

A Matter of Character, by Steven Beschloss

Fun fact: Did you know that no one under half the age of seventy can qualify to be president of the USA?

Even a broken clock can be correct twice a day.

I stand corrected. I misinterpreted it but still that was mainly due to the missing context that preceeded the graph at the original source. Net overseas migration "Net overseas migration is the net gain or loss of population through international migration to and from Australia. In the year...

This sits in my bookshelf nexto to my Magnum stuff.

Cool. I've just finished season 2, about to start season 3 of Deadwood (12 episodes per season). A filthy, treacherous, foul mouthed expletive-laden, drinking, whoring, murderous, wild western with Ian McShane stealing the show as the aptly named Al Swearenger.

How was I to know that given just a picture of a graph without any labels or context whatsoever? You see how easy it is to misinform?

Oh wow a graph, after the fact, covering ten days in June last year during which on one day net migration was at -100,000 and did peak at 500,000. On one day in June last year. In no way disproves my theory that Shane couldn't find a fact if he fell over it. He just makes things up.

Since our only refinery at Marsden Point was decomissioned we can no longer produce our own asphalt (bitumen ingredients) and have to import the stuff. So, of course, the cheapest possible crap is what is sourced to maximise profits, and it does not mix, handle, nor adhere anywhere the same as...

Yet to provide a reference to any factual evidence backing up the numbers you could be making up for all we know. As usual.

Following Iran’s weekend attack on Israel, Majority Leader Scalise announced that “the House will move from its previously announced legislative schedule next week to instead consider legislation that supports our ally Israel and holds Iran and its terrorist proxies accountable.” This was the...

Get on the blower first thing tomorrow losh. "You've taking too bloody long, should have sent it already. Cancel my order and refund me, please"

I think you will find that packets being "delayed" by "jitter" for more than 1 second by nodes along the route rarely, if ever, arrive at the final destination. But you're obviously right, what would I know.

Aussies being piss-weak or is Shane pulling numbers out of his arse again? See your 100K immigrants and raise you 30,900. That makes us ahead over 12 months with 130,900 NET!

Wow, another connection with very bad latency, and jitter as well (dropping packets, but they are being resent successfully, so there is no loss shown) which is even worse for online gaming. Your download ping high of 1165 ms is 1.165 seconds. I don't know whether it's relevant, but the 'Data...

Fark me I would never want to play any online game with that connection. With the latency fluctuating an your download ping peaking at 450 milliseconds (that's 0.45 seconds) you would be dead before you saw the other player in a shooter game. Thats over a distance of only 50 miles to the test...

Not quite so great download speeds when connecting to Australia, we tend to get choked at your end. This one was to/from Optus Sydney. That doesn't really effect me or my gaming, when it's more the ping that matters when I'm trying to gib you guys and gals on a TF2 server. Games, especially...

I'm way up the top of the far North Island too, almost at the pointy bit, not in a city. (NZ$82 / month)

WARNING: Not safe for work or children.

-30% stock value in one year answers that question (against S&P's +27%) The Motley Fool

Forecasters were predicting 500 mm of rain fall over 48 hours for West coast, South Island. Now they're saying close to a meter over 62 hours (already had 250 to 300 mm with slips and road closures). Average April monthly rainfall there is 227 mm.

Just keep sneaking up and poking him in the kidneys. "One day you will, I'm working on it." :)

Park assist is great for kerb rash when parallel parking. It guides by the outside of cars you are positioning between and therefore, depending how much narrower than yours and how close they are to the kerb, can scrape your lovely rims on concrete. Ask me how I know. If it is a keeper, keep...

Almost at 36,000km on the Magnum coming up to 7 years.

Covid-19 is still killing NZers at 3 to 4 times the road toll, although it is difficult to find that data. So that roughly equates to it being Easter every weekend. But there's no revenue to be gathered in talking about it on the news or spending taxpayer's money on primetime adverts, is there?

Anybody remember "Monolithic cladding"?
