I still remember exactly where I was and what I did there, when the first footage appeared on tv (in the Netherlands) and how shocked everyone around me was. I think a lot of people do.
The Sydney Morning Herald (unofficial)@smhaustralia.nzcow.com · 2d ago📢 The events of 9/11, as it unfolds, is told through the extraordinary footage captured by news networks, eyewitnesses and people on the scene. Video by Tom Compagnoni.
We have magpies in our area and I've never heard anyone in our local community about the birds swooping people. I guess they don't feel threatened here?
The Sydney Morning Herald (unofficial)@smhaustralia.nzcow.com · 2d ago📢 For a few weeks a year, some people walk the streets fearing being swooped by a magpie. Here are some ways to avoid it.
That coach considers himself recovered from his jetlag after 5 days. I'm always surprised reading something like that. If you have jetlag for that long, you're doing something wrong!
📢 The San Francisco 49ers arrived early, but could that hurt for week two of the season?
The officiating in this game is a joke, but the Black Ferns should adapt to the ref better.
The Black Ferns not getting the rub of the green in this match. No wonder, because the entire officiating panel is South African. Why didn't World Rugby appoint neutral officials? This would never happen in the men's game.
Hey peeps, what do you think about this? During an online job application for a role at a big NZ company (after answering several standard questions), they asked me to record 2 job interview videos. One to tell something about myself and the other about why I'm interested in working for them. ⬇️
Involvement of FBI and Palantir advisers is enough for me to become suspicious of the entire project. I'd like to know what guarantees are built in to prevent the system from being used for anti-democratic, political purposes by targeting political opponents instead of sex- or drug traffickers etc.
📢 Palantir and FBI insiders join advisory board.
That's quite a big win from the ABs. More than twice the points of the Springboks. I did expect a competitive game & saw a possibility of an ABs win, but not this big! Really awesome start to the tour! Full time: South Africa 16 - 33 New Zealand #RSAvNZL
Fabian Holland from Holland scores for the All Blacks! Awesome try! #RSAvNZL
I was in the middle of a dream when my alarm went of. No idea what about, but it was busy. Then I didn't remember why my alarm went of, so I almost turned around and went back to sleep. That has never happened to me before haha. This test better be worth the interruption of my sleep. #AllBlacks

It's bad enough when boys/men think like this, but girls? Honestly, I'm glad I grew up in a different time. "Generation Z girls were twice as likely as millennial women to believe marriage entitled a husband to sex even if his wife did not want to."
1News NZ (Unofficial)@1newsnz.nzcow.com · 3w ago📢 Young people, including girls, were significantly more likely than older generations to hold hostile attitudes to women, according to the study.
Another job application rejected. I'm losing confidence. Why do I even bother? They never give reasons, so I can just guess. Is it because I'm overqualified? Too old? My accent? Anything else?

Yikes, I'd be very happy if they just stay on those remote islands.

Geez, Justin Marshall, stop talking about a rugby tour as a "war". There are real wars in this world causing misery and many victims. A rugby tour isn't anything like a war. It's trivial and unimportant compared to a war.
This could have been a great game if the officials hadn't made this all about them. The ABs will have to adapt to NH pedantry. Lots of work to do for the ABs; some players have shown that they don't belong in the big tests (B Barrett, Parker, Ioane) & some others that they do. #STOvNZL
Correction. That first half took 52 minutes, because of all the stoppages.
C in NZ@cinnz.bsky.social · last mo.That was one of the most boring 40 minutes of an All Blacks game I've ever watched. #STOvNZL

You'll know you have Karl Dickson as a ref soon enough. Pedantic and ready to hand out cards like candy. Two cards already for the All Blacks. #STOvNZL
Haha, no surprise who gets a yellow card for the All Blacks. Anton Lienert-Brown must have a whole collection of them. #STOvNZL
Did the AI chat interview & got great feedback. Now, did the video interview. Until the moment they see you, you can hide your age. Now, waiting to see whether this employer rates diversity really as much as they claim they do, or are they ageist like many others? Or am I overqualified again?

It's so weird how you can feel the cold air rise up through your floor within a matter of minutes. I didn't feel anything 10 minutes ago and now I'm shivering and getting cold feet. Time to warm up in bed! Good night, everyone!
You can just wait for this to go completely wrong.

Hey Bluesky, is there anyone who has experience with Sapia Ai chat job interviews? Any tips? Via google, I find whole websites explaining how to use and not to use ai to answer the Sapia questions, but I really don't want to invest time in figuring that all out. So how do I go about it?
Disability advocates are calling for an end to the “unacceptable cruelty” of verbal abuse and harassment they say disabled people regularly endure in public spaces. Russell Falcome-Price, a Christchurch resident with an intellectual disability, wants to see community safety initiatives, better…
