@nprofile1q... There's a place near me that does mango ones. They are good, but they are not true Lamingtons.

Raspberry Lamingtons are far superior to the chocolate variety.

Will be going into football rehab after tomorrow's World Cup final... and then it's a month before the Premier League fires up again.

Would it be fair to describe Winston as a Cooker?

2degrees narrows the gap – but which gap?: https://billbennett.co.nz/2degrees-market-share-growth-mobile-market/

2degrees has been the standout performer in the the mobile market over the last year, closing the gap with Spark and One NZ, but there's another narrative.

When I encounter online buttons that say some variation on "Yes" and then "Maybe later" when it's clear the actual answer is "No", my immediate thought is "how can make it work so that I never have to deal with these smug bastards ever again".

@nprofile1q... I think it’s become much harder to write anything independent and skeptical or critical about tech for a variety of cultural reasons. And the audience isn’t there. I try occasionally, but I see less than 10% of the reader numbers I was getting 15 years ago. My telecoms writing is much better received.

@nprofile1q... Crikey, that’s a bit much. This was only my second time using it, both times have been when we are sick. When you’re sick it’s essential so New World shouldn’t shut people out in that way. Some of the people who need it most just can’t.

@nprofile1q... No, but I’m not sure this approach is going to work.

I just went to the TVNZ app to check the times of tomorrow’s match and got an unskippable Act Party advertisement.

This cold or whatever is so yuck that for the second time ever I’ve put in a supermarket delivery order. Feels kind of decadent.
