  • God people are stupid and one sided on this

    They were suspended for disrupting the democratic vote process.

    It’s not about the haka. Its about a time and a place for democratic voting policy. Democracy is paramount it’s not about any one person, people or groups of people trying to intimate the vote. That happens outside. No one is complaining about doing the haka for or against anything at any other time.

    But when it cones to voting you got to behave.

    It is highly disorderly for members to interrupt a vote while it is being conducted. The right to cast one’s vote without impediment goes to the heart of being a member of Parliament. The threshold at which an interjection during a vote may be considered a contempt is where the interruption could be considered intimidatory

    Thats the wording of the report. But Lemmy is already on their wokey high horse. Minorities can do no wrong.

    The fact of the matter is intimidating voting process is not okay. You are stopping democracy. If a white people acted that way there would be no outcry. The outcry is only about people not being given special treatment for being Maori, if I white person done it the result would have been fine and everyone here would say it’s justified. It sounds like everyone here is racist but NZ actually made a decision not based on race.





  • No what you don’t understand is women are completely powerless and must be protected at all cost. They can’t be responsible for their own decisions. If a (female) adult wants to date another adult then it must be okayed by other people that have nothing to do with the situation. Otherwise everyone needs to step in and protect them.

    I think people refer to it as equality.

    I was once in (doesn’t matter what shithole country it was) and we was struggling to get on a flight because the queue was disorganised and staff wasn’t moving us fast enough.

    This was the breaking point for a guy I was with and he said “I wish one fucking person in the country gave a shit about anything”

    And sometimes it does feel like that.

    Also worked with another guy that was very quiet and kept to himself and was pretty calm. But he used to say whenever we had an issue “people just got to come in and do their job” (implying the fuck up was due to people not doing their basic job)

    Edit: changed my spelling coz I’m retarded (actually am a bit so I’m allowed to use it like the blacks)


  • Honestly in some ways this is such a stupid solution to the problem.

    When it comes to cost saving or on the other side of the coin efficiency. The most useful thing is to remove it not make it cheap.

    We should be looking and giving people very good and easy alternatives elsewhere were they don’t need call centres at all.

    I called my doctors a million times to book an appointment and if I could have done it all online I would have. This is how many times I called:

    Went to hospital and Dr told me book drs appointment.

    1. called to book

    2. they call back asked futher questions

    got one (got told to come back by doctor)

    1. can’t book that doctor for the future call up first thing in the morning at our busiest and we can rush you in. (I then got a job so needed to book)

    2. we have no staff call back when we do (didnt say when)

    3. called. We have no appointments call be next week. “Can I book that Dr”? “I don’t know. You’ll have to call back Tuesday”

    4. I’ll call back next tuesday.

    This isn’t fixed with an AI this is fixed by me being able to book an appointment online. If the Dr needs to give me a slip for one booking approval to not be abused so be it. Receptionist doesn’t need to know my business so fuck them.









  • My view is it’s pure hypeware until proven otherwise.

    This isn’t Tesla hate from my side either. The general consensus from enthusiasts since the beginning is Tesla is way off the mark. But the latest self driving upgrades using more LLM tech has apparently been a big step up. By that I mean going from poor assisted self driving to good assisted self driving. Getting it from there to no driver behind the wheel is another matter all together. Maybe they had a single jump or maybe it’s a new path of consistent progress, I have no idea.

    I’m not expecting much from Tesla. I would absolutely love to be wrong.

    Expecting more from baidu, pony.ai and zoox more than Tesla. Hell even BYD with the Chinese backing it has might beat Tesla.
