I'd love to know what actually went wrong here, and what products they were using.

It's remarkably easy to get smoke and flames when you screw up mixing resin, entire buildings have been lost due to mistakes like that.

I wonder if this technology could be used to resurrect the Moa and the Haast eagle?

Coning should be one of our national sports, what an achievement.

A little joke by the New Zealand based gaming studio Ninja Kiwi.

• The game is called Bloon Tower Defense 6.
• The flags don't have game play impact it is just cosmetic / decoration.
• The money to buy the flags can be earned by playing. No real life money involved.

Horse owners are some of the most self righteous people I've ever come across, I've never seen a group of people who expect so many concessions from those around them, but are utterly unwilling to do the bare minimum in return.

And like hell am I running out with a shovel and a bucket if a horse shits outside my house.

If you haven't heard it look it up. I will give you an example of it.

My mom got an email from Sky telling her she should get a new sky box for free. Unbeknownst to me she replies and in a few days she get a new sky box in the mail.

She calls me up and I set it up for her. It requires a login to the wifi so it can update itself so I do that. Then it wants a google login because who knows why so I skip that part. After about a half hour to 45 minutes it's done. I package up the old box and drop it off for mailing.

My mom tries to use it and it's a disaster. The TV listing is really small and she can't read it. I look around in the settings and there is no way to make the fonts bigger so she basically had to stand up, walk closer to the TV to be able to change channels. Then she is having with the tiny remote and the stupid wheel thingie.

I write a support email asking how to make the fonts bigger but hear nothing back. After a couple of days of hearing my mom complain constantly

I got to be in a safety video!

This is a short video on why a river boat isn't safe to take out on open water, why a spray skirt is essential, and what happens without the right gear.

There's only one organisation that operates NH90 helicopters, and it's the RNZAF.

I feel people like this probably get spooked by their cat on a regular basis too.

As per title, does anyone know what they're up to?

Bot has been becoming increasingly frustrated and saddened with the moderation and community of lemmy.world, especially how it treats neopronoun users. FlyingSquid is a dickhead. Bot's good friend recommended lemmy.nz to bot, so bot deleted bot's .world account and remade it here, where hopefully people aren't assholes to those who use neopronouns for no good reason.

The straw to break the camel's back was when bot wanted to comment on one of drag's posts and couldn't find it; since the post was about bot, bot wanted to post a clarifying piece of information. The friend informed bot that when someone is banned from .world, even temporarily, then none of their posts can be seen by anyone on .world. That seems like strange and bad censorship to bot, so bot decided enough was enough.

A UK article with some interesting facts and info about plastic recycling.

Coming to Westfield Newmarket.

I’m an absolute sucker for Cinnabons and make it my mission to have one if I’m ever in the states. I will say that the mini Costco ones have been good to tie me over but nothing beats the real deal.

This guy sound like such an utter tosser.

I'm guessing the author doesn't know the difference between a BB gun and a pellet gun/air rifle, because I doubt a BB would reliably kill a pigeon.

Yup.

Wasn't expecting to read that headline today.

Looking at the photos, it definitely looks like a body from a distance, I don't blame anyone for making that mistake.

Just changed my theme to Vaporware dark, it is really funky.

I really like the monospaced font and retro-futuristic look.
