jellyfin with sonarr and radarr and now jellyseerr make the whole process simple. usenet and nzb are the way now i just wait 10 min to get the film/series i want and then watch it. a minor delay I’m more than happy with. I’d be happy to pay if, and it’s a big if, the studios can catalogue all their shows in one place. i can watch without adverts. i can pay per episode if i want. I’d rather pay 50c an episode than pay for the whole service. let me curate what I want to watch on my terms. until then, the high seas win every time

honestly i called this as soon as I heard about repealing smoke free nz. nz first bought and paid for by big tobacco. screw these fascist fucks fucking hate this corrupt government

problem with random lottery is that 50% of people are more stupid than you. a scientific board across various sciences, social, economic, technological to form a government. double terms allowed and after that they become advisors. randomly selected scientists from a pool of willing participants. say 13 people? no elections. all policy decisions discussed in the open. the board is self policing as it kicks out bad apples. obviously needs fleshing out but a better form of government than we have now where politicians can ignore science and do stupid stuff cos they can

this dude is awesome if I was younger and child free I’d volunteer to be on his boats and fuck up some japan whaling fleets this guy gets much respect he was too militant for Greenpeace we all need to be more militant to save this planet from the corporate chaos

this is good

too be fair I studied Latin at school 40 years ago so this tracks

and now they can kick out Kier and reinstate Jeremy! right!? right?? in my dreams

yeah like go round them up and put them in a room. you gave me this power. now resign. all of you, or seal team 6 takes you out. boom. then Biden chooses the judges he wants, reverts the immunity and rolls back all the recent crap. fixes everything. easy. no more of a coup than the Nazis have done. but now it’s legal do it. for your very lives, do it, coz you guys are real real real close to fucking it up for everyone else too

the number of transitioned people who were harmed by the process is significantly less than the people who feel it improved their life significantly. there are failures across all medical procedures, you don’t see people denying appendectomies to people because a few people died? get over yourself and let people live their best life

time someone sunk these Chinese ‘coastguard’ fucks time all countries bordering the south China sea create a floatilla of their own and round up three rouge fishing boats and sink then all game over China

multiple attempts over the years like everyone else who smokes. smoker for 20years but i wanted to quit. life managed to interrupt my attempts fairly regularly but what got me was nicotine chewing gum. that really helped with the addiction so i could focus on separating the act of smoking from the addiction. this worked on so far as i realised I was addicted to chewing gum and had removed the act of smoking. addicted to chewing gum? what a stupid thing to be addicted to! the absurdity was quite clear and I stopped that day. 13 years ago. dabbled here and there but find it gross and disgusting. have vaped a bit of other people’s, and even smoked for a week once. that was disgusting, my body felt awful my lungs hurt and i couldn’t taste anything. so i guess this ramble is too say never give up and try to separate the addiction from the act to make it absurd. good luck

played for about 20hrs and put it down never to be picked up again most boring space game ever

what do you expect from these bunch of thugs in government? Nats love roads and taking away kids school lunches

The only way a yes is possible is if it goes hand in hand with political education of what each party stands for and the history of their policies. You can’t force people to vote without ensuring they understand what they are voting for, else you must get a scatter gun effect at the pols of random votes or uninformed votes and we saw how that worked for brexit. Manipulation is too easy. Education education education to coin Tony Blair, but start political eduction at secondary school. Then in ten years make voting mandatory. Also limit voting to under 70yrs, after that age you don’t really have a good grasp of current issues so you shouldn’t be able to vote on them. Leave that to the younger population who have more invested in the future…
