The randomly generated one I tried to use was… wait for it… 31 characters long.
Technically it should accept a maximum length of 29 with that wording. I bet it accepts 30. But I can't be bothered testing it for that small win, because I lose in the end.
I think there's a big problem with the media trying to be "impartial”. They take it too far and become “irrelevant”.
Because during the 1News item on the scrapping of the Auckland regional petrol tax, the guy they spoke to at the pump who said it was a good idea because “this is a thirsty vehicle” DESERVES to be ridiculed.
They ask the "person in the street" for their views but never call out the biases that so many people will miss.
It's misleading to them, and insulting to the rest of us.
Any local woodworkers here willing to take on a small, and simple, commission from me? Basically a couple of square rails and a bunch of dowels. Whole thing easily held in one hand.
Last time I took a photo of one 20 km from my camera. This was on a much closer track so only about 12 km from the camera.
I have been hoping to see this particular aircraft some day, but had hoped to be a little closer! Avgeeks will not only be able to tell the aircraft type and airline, but also the registration!
So here's the thing. THREE people I know who are all wary of COVID19 and have managed for nearly four years to avoid catching it… have caught it in the last 4 weeks.
All fully vaccinated (well more than 2 doses). All still wearing masks in crowded public spaces (or otherwise avoiding them).
One lives with a vulnerable person and managed to avoid passing it on.
One IS a vulnerable person and was fortunately OK. Who knows what a different strain may have done.
Anyone in NZ (preferably Welly) got an old camera copy stand they don't want? In addition to being thin on the ground, they're bloody expensive new. It just needs to hold a standard DSLR sturdily at about 40 cm above the bed.
New Zealand had reasonably sensible rules and guidelines for COVID for nearly four years, including access to vaccines.
Five months after all that was thrown away, infection is spiking and I finally succumbed.I think I can attribute my infection to the lack of isolation requirements.
Yes, I'm fully vaccinated — six doses, the last in October. I can only hope it doesn't reach other household members, because I tested negative for the first two days of symptoms.
I recently came across some old photos I took on a brief trip to Nürnberg, Germany. This was taken on New Years Day 1987. They have interesting ideas on subject material for sculptures in this city!
I recently learned that despite the city’s many very old features (one fountain I looked up dated to the 14th century!) this one was created in 1984, so was quite new when I saw it!
It is called Ehekarussell and depicts the “Marriage Merry-Go-Round, from courtship to skeletons”.
