The solution isn't what to do with the children, the solution is preventing criminals from breeding in the first place...

Good points, makes sense probably

I've installed Windows 11 on a VM and had a bit of a look, but not extensively.

I actually like its interface a lot more than the horrendous Windows 8/10 bodge of half classic UI and half mobile...

Another option is to rent it from the library.

They have many T.V. shows and the prices are better than the old video rental places used to be.

The only problem is you obviously have to wait...

If it's not available then sure, that's the only way to go.

But sometimes for the convenience of local warranty repair etc, it's better to buy in NZ even if it costs a bit more.

If a show is on broadcast T.V. where I could watch it for free anyway, I'll download it instead to avoid the mind-numbing advertising.

Either way, nobody's getting a cent from my viewing, so the...

Even if they ship to you OK, another problem is what if you need warranty work?

Do you have to send it back to Italy?

Will Uniden NZ handle it, or deny responsibility because you purchased...

So he'll be a sheep farmer, then? :P

Thanks, I did try vice grips on the one that I could reach, but they just slip off when I try to turn it. The head already broke off as it was severely rusted.

The other does have a head but is in...

I actually managed to clean up and fix the original piece pretty well. The only problem is the two bad screws left in the cabinet.

Not that I need to remove them, I could install new ones...

The same bureaucracy that designed and built fancy train station shelters on the West Auckland line in the '90s with grand arcing roofs that faced the prevailing wind and became a giant air scoop for...

Everything is built like cheap junk these days, what do you expect?

Funny they never seem to think to ask if the public actually *want* these things, before wasting the money on it.

Don't forget blue cheese, it's rotten on purpose and can never hide the fact that it stinks!

That guy in the sauce advertisement looks as if he was just given a plate full of cocaine!

He wanted to retain his monopoly with his bridge, which includes the duty-free shops that he owns there.

If another bridge opened, there'd be less potential customers crossing his bridge. They...

In my experience (And I've had a lot of stuff delivered via various couriers) NZ Post are actually the only ones that get the job done quickly and reliably, most of the time.

Fastway are also...

Hah!

Thanks everyone, I'll look into it.

Would prefer plywood or other with an actual grain, as this will be oiled or varnished, not painted.

Yes it's a backing board thing but will still get seen...

I am in need of some 4mm thick plywood to finish a woodworking project.

I did have a suitable piece originally, but due to storage in poor conditions over years it has gone moldy, and had to be...

Sure, let's save the environment with vehicles that are unsupported for battery replacement in 5 years and will end up in the junkyard much earlier than they should.
...

That's why I like Comodo's Defence+ HIPS.
Set it to paranoid mode and it'll alert you when processes are trying to execute, access sensitive registry keys, etc.

Once you set up a whitelist for...

Or some driver incompatibility.

Some older laptops can have real weird hardware setups that won't work with anything but the OEM drivers.

Well, a digital TV and a digital tuner and two different things.
There are many older LCD and Plasma TVs which only have old VHF/UHF tuners (I have one like that), and don't have digital tuners, so...

Instructions unclear, ran wheelie bin through shredder, now I have a pile of plastic pellets.
