"we did our due diligence"
People who refer to themselves as "myself" in conversation as if it makes them sound more "highbrow". No, you fuckwit it just confirms your illiteracy.

"Dub Dub Dub"
Wanna fucking smash the persons nose in whenever someone says that shit to me.
I heard something else in the car (on the radio) this morning... can't remember what it was now :(
Though tbh, whoever came up with the letter W was silly.
They're all single syllable or under.
Unless you're 'naming' them.
Personally I always thought it looked more like a double V
Oh, and also websites that force the usage of the old (redundant) www. subdomain.
Canterbury university of all fucking places is one ><
"canterbury.ac.nz" -> "This site does not exist" OH FUCKOFF!
The 'double-yew' name might have something to do with the latin 'u', which is written 'V', therefore two 'u's would make VV etc. Just a guess though.

lol, that's pretty messed up, oh well canterbury's loss there.
I'll be happy to see away with the old www, at least in spoken language.
But yeah, 'dub dub dub' is pretty annoying, "Look at me, I'm internet-savvy." Lazy bastards.
Massey does that.
Might have something to do with the 'ac.nz'?

Consumerism. The American Dream. Corporate greed and the sheeple that are apathetic to anything not right in their face.
How the **** has the world become so brainwashed that it is now taboo to question government behavior? Now anyone that does this is considered an extremists, immature or a conspiracyfag. Wasn't it once considered patriotic to stand up to your government when they are wrong?

Walking into a computer shop and getting treated like its a high st fashion store.
No one says hi or can I help you, which this time they could.
I know they must get sick of "Just looking thanks"
Do a couple of laps around the shop, try to make eye contact with anyone to say I'ld like to buy........
Do the proverbial shark circling the center counter. No one looks or asks.
Walk out with all my money in pocket.
Was looking at spending $300-500.
I know I probably should have asked for assistance, I was the only one there and was put off as soon as I walked in the store.
I feel better now. Thanks.
Will save money now for better rig :)
Name and shame to be honest.Was heat of the moment stuff what the thread is for.
I get the same problem @ jb Ploppy, was looking for a new tv earlier this year, cunts ignored me, even when i was like "i want to spend $900, why no help."( not quite like that) Went two stores down to noel leeming, got the same tv i was looking for, bit cheaper too, then walked back past jb with my new tv, put my trollface on and waved and the staff.
And another time when i was looking for a bday present for someone... (different store to tv bitches)
I guess you could say Jb hifi grinds my gears.
Working for an IT support firm, open my door wearing work shirt to a vodafone door knocker (was one of those indian-looking fellows who say anything to sign your name up) who treats me like an imbecile. He wanted me to change to vodafone so I could $#@! my mysky etc up. Mysky isn't even connected to phoneline due to the amount of arsehole wiring required, he said he'd pay for that and any disconnect fees. I'm like really, you'll pay ~$500 to get a phone line run from one side of my house, just to hook it up to my mysky for which I don't even use any of the features that require a connection?

Once a rhino's horn has been hacked off, they leave the animal to bleed to death. The horn is then smuggled out of the country by an international syndicate. The price of rhino horn is £35,000 ($70,000) a kilogram, making it more expensive than gold, according to the International Rhino Foundation. Three poachers came at dead of night, it is believed, shooting her and removing the horn with apparently clinical expertise (some rhinos are crudely hacked and disfigured). The animal appears to have walked for about 80m before collapsing and dying.

Because I've got like about past 7 -10 Steam games that I havent download yet because 2 reason, 1) too big as I dont to exceed the monthly usage, 2) I dont play that game a lot. So I just want to make sure that it is unmetered so then I dont have to worry about the usage as I was planning to download them all at once.
Plus I will also ref this page as for future in case I get charge (except for when the offer expired).

It's like taking a photo of a photo, or explaining a comic strip to someone.....it just doesn't work.
"oh it's hilarious I'll put it on our facebook page, give it a like while you're there"
which is also just a metric for them to gauge how many listeners they have.....

Because you're significantly more full of feces than any of the other persons at the address?
Thus you spend more time defacating and therefore, more time sitting on the toilet.
As a result of this, your percentage of time "on the throne" is higher than anyone elses is and you therefore have a greater chance of being the person present, when said TP runs out.
Elementary my dear boy!

"We do not hold such a premise that digitally distributed software has less value. Some publishers believe that the digital versions should be cheaper while others insist that both versions must be set at exactly the same price. Each publisher has various ideas on this point and, among them, Nintendo is now offering both versions at the same price point"

Jimquisition: Don't Charge Retail Prices For Digital Games[/url]
My biggest gripe is regional pricing.Nintendo is famous for this. They would charge the same amount of Wii points for all their products. Sounds good, but in practice it means we would pay NZD$14 for 1000 Wii Points instead of the NZD$10 we should pay, because they charge USD$7.50 for 1000 Wii points.

Kiwi jihadist mistakenly broadcasts his location
A Kiwi jihadist who claims to be fighting in Syria with the Islamic State has been mistakenly broadcasting his exact location after forgetting to turn off a tracking function on his phone.
Mohammad Daniel, also known as Abu Abdul Rahman, and formerly known as Mark John Taylor, has now deleted 45 posts from Twitter after discovering that he had been revealing his location to intelligence agencies and enemies keeping tabs on him.

After my mid year trip with the mrs (providing it goes well) we'll end up moving in together.
Food going missing purely because they're [flatmates] too assuming - "oh, this must be xxxx's food, they'll be fine with me eating it" thinking it's food that belongs to another flatmate.
I want to invest in another italian steak grill and some knives, but after seeing how many frypans they go through purely because they go from stove top to water without cooling down, I don't want to buy anything decent in fear of it being ruined.
Sometimes I wonder if I should get a flatmate, then I read things like this, lol

You made money, by doing nothing. Scale this up as there is no risk, and you make an infinite amount of money and crash the economy.The Chinese Yuan is where the real money is at. CNY5.5 = 1NZD and now crashed to CNY4.6715 = 1NZD
Xsannz, you are being a muppet.
Official Lending Rate is what we call the Official Cash Rate in NZ.
In layman's: Lower numbers are to encourage spending, higher numbers to encourage saving. It is altered in attempt to reduce inflation.
The MARKET lending rates are similar. 6% mortgage 13-18% Credit.
Just as a side note, if Canada was lending at 1% PA.
Borrow 1000CAD = 1075NZD
Put in NZD bank account @ 4.5% interest
12 Month = 1123NZD = 1044CAD
Pay interest of 1%x1000CAD = 10CAD
Profit = 35CAD

What I want to know is why don't personal loan, credit card etc rates rise and fall with the OCR like mortgages.
When mortage rates were pushing 9-10%, personal loans were 14-18%.. Mortgages are half that, loan rates are unchanged..

My guess is because personal loans don't have security. If a bank offered low interest rates on a person loan, they'll get more customers of their competitors, but more risk as well. If too many of those loans go bad, they'll be screwed.
With a mortgage, the bank can just sell your house, so they can afford to be competitive on the rates.
This and there's not much competition in that space as Personal Loans don't tend to make a large return for the bank. Bank's are happy to offer them, but won't fight over them.

but get to a passing lane and they do 120kmh so you cant pass then slow down....
If people are lining up behind me on an open road (while I'm going 100kph) and there's a passing lane, I will actually drop back down to 90kph to make the passing safer.
cant wait for self driving cars it will fix all the cunts who cant drive.

I think its more live betting. Like there are bets on who is the next man out, or method of dismissal etc. So if you are quick enough, you can get the bet in before they suspend the betting (because someone has got out so they need to update the odds).

I realise that.
But in my view, if someone is quick enough to get a bet in, then all power to them.
If the place that offers betting does not like that, then they should not offer those kind of bets.

The NZ media doesn't really make sense. When John Key is doing truly bad shit, you might see the odd article come onto the front page, but hardly any intense coverage. Almost like oh well hes done it, lets just move on. But when something stupid like this comes along, its front page news and seems to continue well into the next week.
I am starting to subscribe more and more to my friends theory that there is some fishy business in the NZ media. Might look into making the tinfoil hat this weekend.
Denise Pirini : Yup weve been pulled up at the bottom of a hill getting a bit of speed to climb it. Near kawakawa state highway 1. So stupid getting pulled over on a hill.
David Skelton : Getting people to constantly take there eyes off the road and check there speedometer is just stupidity . Its like reading text messages when driving . Stupidity in general sums up our police force and national goverment .
John Smith : Revenue boost! Still not sure what the speed limit is anymore! 1km, 4km or 10km?
Late last year police top brass had warned motorists if they went just 1km/h over the speed limit they would be stopped. But between December 1 and Tuesday, just 14 drivers were ticketed. ...

Tai chi group booted by church
A tai chi class made up of elderly women and arthritis sufferers has been booted out of a church hall over fears they are a threat to the church's "spiritual wellbeing".
The group's leader said the 20 women had been practising tai chi in the Central Southland Presbyterian Parish hall without issue for five years, but were approached by parish council clerk John Willis and told to leave last month.
Willis' approach came "out of the blue" and had left the group shocked and upset, she said.
"[The parish council] decided because tai chi had religious links we'd have to go," the woman said.
"Maybe it did hundreds of years ago when it was started by a Taoist monk, but the classes I teach are for older ladies and arthritis sufferers and have absolutely no religious significance."
The teacher said Willis' manner was "quite rude" and she could not understand why he had not discussed his concerns with her before deciding to exclude the group from the hall.
She had booked the hall for the remainder of the year but had to cancel the booking and find a new hall, which was not as well suited to the group's needs.
"If I could have just talked to them about this before it all happened, we could have avoided this whole thing," she said.
"I've been going to church since I was 13 but I won't be going back - that's how much this has affected me.
"All the other ladies have had to go home and tell their families. It's upset so many people and it's enough to put anyone off the church."
Ad Feedback
Willis said he had written to the leader of the group to apologise for the way he approached the issue.
He had not meant to cause offence, he said.
The council had spent "a considerable amount of time" debating the issue and acknowledged many of the women were achieving better health as a result of the classes, he said.
Willis said while the council understood the programme did not include any religious content, it believed tai chi conflicted with the church's teachings and threatened the church's spiritual wellbeing.
"As church leaders we need to look after everyone in the parish, and their spiritual wellbeing," he said.
"The first commandment is that we must honour God and have no other God before us, and having come from Taoism tai chi is promoting another God."
Willis said he believed most people weren't aware of the origins of tai chi and believed they were just doing exercises.
There had been discussions about allowing the group to remain in the hall if they stopped referring to the activities as tai chi, but the teacher had declined this, he said.
He was saddened that some parishioners had become disheartened with the church.
"We don't have a problem with any individual, it was just the tai chi," Willis said.
"We're saddened that we've upset some people and that they've taken it personally, because that's not what we wanted.
"Sometimes in upholding the truth people get hurt, but I hope they will come back to the church."
also i have heard that apparently most of the lazer / radar guns are not calibrated to that level of precision.
Am I the only person around here who thinks that the police should not be doing traffic enforcement at all? It was better when the MOT had a separate traffic section for that shit.
Maybe if we split them off again the police would have time to actually you know, investigate real crimes. A huge amount of minor offending goes unpunished in NZ, because police do not have the time/resources/political motivation (no fines income!) to deal with it.
I miss the days when a burglary would have 3 cops cars at your house in 5 minutes and a truant kid would be dragged home to the parents by the ears with a size 10 up the jacksie (back when the police actually had size standards and didn't hire 5ft midgets).

He said "Are you aware of whats happening with the deep sea oil exploration"
And I said "I know enough, but lets save us some time, you're going to tell me about it for a while, and then ask me for money, which i'm going to decline to give you, right?"
And he said "uh.. well.. yeah pretty much"
Then we politely said goodbye, and he left.
Much unlike the woman who drove down my driveway, parked in front of my open garage door while I was trying to leave for work, got out of her car and was like
"I know you're busy, but we have been trying to catch up with you for a while, we are in your neighborhood spreading the word! here I have a pamphlet for you"
*rummages through a folder and gives me a pamphlet about jesus*
"Now the stuff in there, thats not just what we say, Its what the bible says, so we have scriptures to back it up!"

PS, In light of the apparent fact that people are (d)evolving into fuck'n gastropods, I'm thinking of joining the NZ olympic walking team. Wanna be my training partner Xeno? I seems like we'd have a good shot at a gold/silver finish :>See now there's an idea! Imagine what we could do as a team... We could draft, and also steer slow people into buses with our powerful walking skills.
People that drive up to traffic lights, but then stop miles away from the limit line and the coil for activating the lights.
I'm usually stuck behind the gormless twits!

There's this website called SumOfUs. I signed a petition they were hosting once, I forget what it was for. Ever since I have received an ungodly amount of spam from them. 1-2 emails daily.
Meet the new Spring.me!
Exciting news, Tiwaking “tiwaking” ! :-)
Spring.me has joined forces with Twoo and now has 30% more charm, 40% more love and 70% more awesomeness.
And the extra cool thing? Your new Twoo account is ready for you, right now. Your important Spring.me data also made the switch! You're welcome! ❤
Twoo, “the fastest growing place to meet new people,” has been spamming people for over a year.
Users have been complaining that they get unsolicited emails from the app, that the app messages all of their contacts without their understanding, and that it’s unclear how to delete their accounts.
I covered Twoo’s questionable growth techniques a year ago, when co-founder and CEO Lorenz Bogaert said it was “just not clear enough.” He claimed, “We do not send any messages without the prior consent of the user,” and said the company “had already decided to add an additional confirmation step to avoid any unintended actions.”
And yet, a year later, problems with Twoo persist. The connect with friends via email component, which is what users have complained about the most, looks functionally the same as when I wrote about the company a year ago.
Search “Twoo spam” on Twitter (don’t dare trying just “Twoo,” it’s an island of misfit grammar), and you’ll see user complaints from the past three years.

tbh, developing an algorithm for battleships is pretty simple anyway. At least try a more difficult game.

Is anybody else constantly amazed at the apparent performance difference between seemingly huge and slow trucks vs SUV's?
An anecdotal analysis of pseudo drag races from the lights would have me purchasing a B train over the fucking Santa Fe.
Here's how it goes:
Light turns green.
Concrete truck moves away, SUV driver puts down their phone.
Truck 1/4 of the way across the intersection, SUV driver puts car into Drive.
Truck half way across intersection, SUV driver checks left and right.
Truck 3/4 of the way across the intersection, a tradie in his hiace full of paint is behind the truck. SUV driver takes their foot off the brake.
Truck across the intersection, tradie changing lanes. SUV driver locates and applies 2% accelerator pedal.
At this stage the best thing a car company could do to sell me a car, is not sell cars to fuckwits. The fucking salesman will say "Does 0-100 in 7.4 seconds" "FUCK OFF IT DOES, NO SANTA FUCKING FE DRIVER HAS EVER BEEN 100, WE'RE STILL COUNTING THE FUCKING YEARS UNTIL THEY GET THERE"
And it's not really just SUV's, it's every single car that is shitty, hatch backs, sedans, 300Hp, 6 cylinder falcadore. FIND THE FUCKING ACCELERATOR AND PRESS IT YOU MONG.

Seems like a neat concept until one considers the reality of it. Unpacking a container to a (semi) permenant setup like that makes it pointless to use a container. But that's by the by. For the most part it is likely structurally unsound as cutting away the sides results in extreme compromise in the rigidity of the structure, which mostly comes from the corrugated panneling, not the support frame at each end. Plus it'd be extremely cold with a lack of insulation, or would suffer from extreme condensation and therefore rot if said insulation if it was added. Designers (architects) often make seemingly neat looking ideas, and the world does need lateral thinkers, don't get me wrong. But one must consider more than just asthetics before thinking it's a viable solution. When I was ten I drew a pretty awesome looking spacestation, but we're still not living amongst the stars. You'd be better off putting a kitset house IN the container.

Lucas' idea is to develop small GPS trackers that can be stuck to anything from phones, keys and wallets to clothing and bags, which can then be tracked via a mobile app.
The aim is to have the GPS accurate down to a metre, enabling it to be tracked not just to a region but also within a home environment.

Firstly, GPS is not accurate down to a metre, particularly indoors.
Phones already have this feature, so it seams kind of redundant.
How will the trackers communicate, a mobile connection? radio? However will it be powered, GPS devices use a lot of power.

The ship, built mainly by volunteers and an original attraction when the park was first established as Fantasyland in 1967, was ablaze when the first of three fire crews from Hastings and Napier arrived after the alarm was raised at 6.01am.

Windows 7 updated itself to a point where it can no longer check for updates.
And of course being windows update, it takes like 20 sequential runs to actually update a machine, it can't do it all at once.
So now I've a half updated system with a broken update mechanism. And the microsoft methods of fixing this (for which there are more than FIVE) all result in ... the same state.
I managed to manually install the patch I needed to get the G15 drivers working though, so that's ok. Motherfucker can stay broken. Every time I run it it bleeds the system of RAM until the entire thing grinds to a hault.

Windows 10 is great, and stable if you stick to the mainstream releases.
The broken one xssanz is talking about is the fast ring of the insider program (basically it's an Alpha version)
The release cycle looks something like this:
MS build test group -> MS Systems Group -> MS internal (everyone) -> Windows Insiders (Fast Ring) -> Windows Insiders (slow Ring) -> Current Branch -> Current Branch for Business -> Long Term Servicing Branch
The slowest two (CBB and LTSB) are only available to business/enterprise customers, CB is "normal" windows 10, WI(SR) is "public beta" and WI(FR) is "public alpha".

When I have headphones on:
[Insert random co-worker] "Oh is it ok if I disturb you?"
[Me] *Sigh* "Yes (you already have)"
[Same random co-worker] "Series of questions"
Result: 2 minutes of my time, and about 45 minutes of trying to get back to what I was working on.
This is what emails are for. Unless you are dying, then fuck off. And even then, I probably don't care and you can die in peace.
Don't know about your workplace, but at mine "No I am in the middle of something" is a pretty suitable response.Due to the nature of programming, most of the time is too late once the questions been asked.

Swann, 64, and his associate, Kerry Harford, were found guilty in 2008 of defrauding the then Otago District Health Board (DHB) of about $16.9 million by invoicing the board for bogus computer-related services.

Wannabe terrorist who left America to fight for ISIS came back because 'life was too hard'
Bank clerk Mohamad Kweis had dreamed of a better life but told a local news channel that in reality life is in fact 'really, really bad' fighting for Islamic State.
An ISIS deserter who left the USA to fight in the Middle East claims he found life 'too hard' under the brutal regime - as he hated studying and missed smoking!
Mohamad Khweis, 26 - who was captured by Kurdish forces in Iraq after running away from Islamic State - had dreamed of a better life but says in reality life is in fact 'really, really bad'.
He only fled in December but today he arrived in the US to face criminal charges after being deported - and could now face more than 10 years in jail.
He said: “It’s not like the Western countries, you know, it’s very strict.
"There’s no smoking. I found it hard for everyone there”.

People waiting at pedestrian crossings with lights, that don't push the button to cross.
Maybe they are just be considerate and waiting for a gap in traffic, instead of pushing the button and making all the cars wait.But they are waiting to cross! It just means I turn up and push the button, and then wait for it to go green before crossing.
Better then people who do push the button, then cross anyway and cars are left waiting for no one.

I think he's an absolute nutjob but at least he's entertaining so I hope Trump wins, I have my popcorn ready.
The House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed a bill giving Congress the power to block any effort by the White House to weaken sanctions on Russia, offering a direct challenge to President Donald Trump's authority.
The vote was 419-3. The legislation moves to the Senate, but it's unclear when the Senate will vote on the measure, which includes new sanctions against Russia, Iran and North Korea. Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairman Bob Corker indicated Monday he may want to make some tweaks to the bill, which was negotiated between the House and Senate after the initial version he drafted sailed through on a 98-2 vote.
The National Party has soared in popularity while Labour has plummeted, a new poll on the eve of the election shows.
NZ First has also fallen in the latest One News Colmar Brunton poll and is dangerously close to falling below the 5 per cent threshold.
In a complete reversal of momentum from the previous poll, National has arrested its fall and instead risen six points to 46 per cent. Labour is down seven points to 37 per cent.
Under the latest poll, NZ First is back to holding the balance of power, but only by the skin of its teeth.

The Muslim Council of Britain said it hoped Sunday's open day would show unity in "a tense time for faith communities". Three times as many mosques took part this year as last year, it said. There are about three million Muslims - about 5% of the population - and an estimated 1,750 mosques in the UK.Feb 7, 2016
Their takeover of a country, what Dr. Hammond refers to as “Islamization,” begins when the population of Muslims reaches a critical mass, and they being to agitate for various privileges.
Open, free, democratic societies are particularly vulnerable. “When politically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim demands for their religious privileges, some of the other components tend to creep in as well,” he notes.
This is how it works, according to Dr. Hammond:
When the Muslim population remains under 2% in a country, they will be seen primarily as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to other citizens. This is the current situation in:
United States — Muslim 0.6%
Australia — Muslim 1.5%
Canada — Muslim 1.9%
China — Muslim 1.8%
Italy — Muslim 1.5%
Norway — Muslim 1.8%
As the Muslim population reaches 2% to 5%, they begin to recruit from ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, within prisons and street gangs. This is happening in:
Denmark — Muslim 2%
Germany — Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom — Muslim 2.7%
Spain — Muslim 4%
Thailand — Muslim 4.6%
“From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population,” Dr. Hammond notes. “For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food” and increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature such food on their shelves — along with threats for failure to comply. This is happening in:
France — Muslim 8%
Philippines — 5%
Sweden — Muslim 5%
Switzerland — Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands — Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad & Tobago — Muslim 5.8%
Soon they begin to apply pressure to allow Sharia law within their own communities (sometimes ghettos).
“When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions,” Dr. Hammond notes. “In Paris, we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam, with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam.” These tensions are seen on a regular basis in:
Guyana — Muslim 10%
Riots in Pakistan, 2013
Riots in Pakistan, 2013
India — Muslim 13.4%
Israel — Muslim 16%
Kenya — Muslim 10%
Russia — Muslim 15%
The violence increases when the Muslim population reaches 20%. “After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues,” such as in:
Ethiopia — Muslim 32.8%
“At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare,” such as in:
Bosnia — Muslim 40%
Chad — Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon — Muslim 59.7%
From 60%, persecution of non-believing “infidels” rises significantly, including sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia law as a weapon, and Jizya, a tax placed on infidels, such as in:
Albania — Muslim 70%
Malaysia — Muslim 60.4%
Qatar — Muslim 77.5%
Sudan — Muslim 70%
After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out “infidels,” and move toward a 100% Muslim society, which has been experienced to some degree in:
Bangladesh — Muslim 83%
Egypt — Muslim 90%
Gaza — Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia — Muslim 86.1%
Iran — Muslim 98%
Iraq — Muslim 97%
Jordan — Muslim 92%
Morocco — Muslim 98.7%
Pakistan — Muslim 97%
Palestine — Muslim 99%
Syria — Muslim 90%
Tajikistan — Muslim 90%
Turkey — Muslim 99.8%
United Arab Emirates — Muslim 96%
A 100% Muslim society will theoretically usher in their version of peace — the peace of ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ — the Islamic House of Peace. “Here there’s supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrassas are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word,” such as in:
Afghanistan — Muslim 100%
Saudi Arabia — Muslim 100%
Somalia — Muslim 100%
Yemen — Muslim 100%
Dr. Hammond observes this Islamic ideal is seldom realized. “Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as in these 100% states the most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons.”

US talk show host Stephen Colbert's visit to New Zealand cost Kiwi taxpayers just over $100,000.THANKS JACINDA! WOW! YOU SURE ARE GREAT AT HANDLING OUR MONEYS!!!
The Late Show host was in New Zealand for six days last month, filming segments for an episode of the show that will air in late November.
Tourism New Zealand said while the CBS network had funded the majority of the production, it had covered the accommodation, some tourism experiences and meals for Colbert and 15 crew members.

Climate change: New Zealand to quadruple climate cash for poor countries to $1.3 billion
Luke Malpass
05:15, Oct 18 2021
The Government has announced that it will be quadrupling the amount of money it spends over the next four years to help poorer countries deal with climate change.
In a significant boost to New Zealand’s global efforts to battle climate change, Stuff can reveal that over the next four years the Government has committed to ploughing $1.3 billion into offshore efforts, part of a global commitment to the developing world of $100b.
New Zealand’s previous commitment was $300 million.
Jesus Christ. That looks like eve online without the fun. Tiwa for PM I guess.If you think the economic interface looks bad, you should see the Military interface: Its horrendous. It is impossible to coordinate attacks properly.You increased trade 10 fold in one month?I increased trade revenue 11 fold in one month. And reduced income tax to 0. I also pulled New Zealand out of almost every pact that cost New Zealand financially. We still had to remain a part of the United Nations, but I did manage to give the middle finger to the Inter-Monetary Fund.
How many TPPA's did you sign?
Of note is how there is no government funded research in the budget. This is because, with all the extra trade revenue, we can just buy overseas technology.
Oh yeah. I also got rid of foreign aid because fuck them.

The Singles' Day (simplified Chinese: 光棍节; traditional Chinese: 光棍節) or Double 11 (Chinese: 双11), originally called Bachelors' Day, is a Chinese unofficial holiday and shopping season that celebrates people who are not in relationships. The date, 11 November (11/11), was chosen because the numeral 1 resembles a bare stick (Chinese: 光棍; pinyin: guānggùn), which is Chinese Internet slang for an unmarried man who does not add 'branches' to the family tree.
