  • They are realy cool. It is important to note that they are almost garanteed to be a composit i.e the sky is from a different photo than the mountains in the foreground, and probably Queenstown in the background is probably its own photo aswell.

    Some people say thats cheating, others say its fine if they were all taken in the same place. Im not saying either way, i am more on the side of "as long as it was all taken from the same location im fine with layering" but i do know people who take the stance of "if you are layering then its already fake and i dont like it. Why not add a dragon and Mikey mouse for effect". You are never going to get the sky like the picture in the same shot as the mountains or even Queenstown because both are throwing off too much light to get an impresive starfield.

  • Ahh you see you are falling back on those outdated human skills of "critical thinking" and "logic" where we are using the superiour more modern way of "asking AI" and a $3500 toaster over priced unitasker

  • "Want to cook the perfect steak in 90seconds or less? Imposible, you say! Preposturios, you say! Well with the power of AI it is now a reality!"

    Of course you just spent $3500 on a perfecta grill so you'll probably have a tough time buying steak now

  • Our political parties dont want to be tied to pesky nuisances like facts and logic. They want to be able to say things that whip the people up into a frenzy!

  • Only going to happen if they get in... again!

  • Australia and New Zealand need it. UV index reguarly hits 13 in summer. You feel your skin prickel just standing in it for a couple of minutes.

    I think i saw it on lemmy a couple of weeks back. A dermatologist convention in Hawaii. The dermatologists were enjoying the sun in full bodysuits, im betting they definatly think this is a good idea.

  • Local Art show is on and there is a Lego exhibit in the library with models of a few neat buildings from around Christchurch. So i think ill go have a look and see whats good!

  • Howdy all. Been around a bit, lemmy.nz is a great place. Just looking to do my bit to help out

  • Ahh it moved to roughly 25seconds into the intro

    Isn't Commander, no wait, Ensign, wait, Lieutenant Paris originaly picked up from the prison coloney of Wellington?

    See it's still there. In spirit

  • I think you are thinking of New Zealand. The push didnt fail because it was tough, it failed because one of the political parties currently in power ( New Zealand First) has Phillip Morris lobbyists so far up its ass they are breathing for two.

    New Zealand First had the law reverted and then Casey Costello, who is Associate Health Minister, gave tax breaks to companies offering "heated tobacco products" which is only Phillip Morris.

    Lifted a ban on vapes without removable batteries so Phillip Morris could release their HTP

    And the only thing in this blatent corruption scandel that they got in the neck was the handling of some fudged numbers and dodgy conclusions that Miss Costello says she "had no idea where they came from"

    Fucken corupt basterds the lot of them

  • ChatGPT sure does love that dark electric teal theme. Cool site! Cheers for the link

  • USA also have the "cooperation" of Venezuala, who holds the largest oil fields in the world. So they are just oil mad at this point.

  • Havent noticed a difference to be honest. Seems to be as fast as previous

  • Fantastic pic you've snaped there! I was out freezing my brass monkeys at the beach just to get a glimpse of the red moon. Didnt disapoint! Well worth the trip.

  • Got a mate popping over from Australia so meeting up with another mate in Auckland we will do some rubber necking around Auckland then heading down to Ohakune to spend a few nights around Tongariro. Then back up to Auckland to fly down to Christchurch. In the South Island We will probably do some day walks in Arthurs and Lewis Passes, hit up Hamner and the hot pools, grab some fish and chips in Kaikoura. nothing really planed just giving our Aussie mate a slice of Aotearoa.

  • One more week of work before I'm off for 3 weeks touring the country with a few mates. Cant wait!

  • Let me get this straight. Air New Zealand, a company that the government owns a dominant number of controling shares in, is not performing how the government wants. The governments big idea to get Air New Zealand to do what the government wants is for the government to give up its controlling position in this company???

    Do i have this correct? Is Rimmer all there? Does the computer generating the hologram need a check up?

  • Spent last night going through all the political parties and their policies. Damn do they suck! Labour was the only one who had concrete policy and even then only on doctors visits and loans for new doctor practices.

    Every other party from the Greens to Act or all nothing burgers and hot air sentenses usually taking the form of "this is a problem, we will fix it" no "how" or "what with"

    I know its early in the election cycle but its still very lax
