@Fizz @BalpeenHammer Given how we lept in boots and all into the market ideology in the 1980s and never resiled from it, I am not surprised that “me first” is lurking just below the surface of our collective psche.

2·1 年前@liv Yes and in the same vein I would not use the term ex-colony to describe us even though we are one. We are charting a different path and labels that tie us to the past are counterproductive. Ymmv.
@liv I think the term settler carries a lot of baggage - much more than migrant. But maybe that’s just me.
@yeather hmm arguably a bigger proportion of Australia’s current proportion migrated well after the penal colony settlers.
Logically every country is a settler country in that waves of human migration brought people to those lands.
It’s a pretty tenuous way to describe a country.
@fallaciousreasoning
“though a settler country” wait, what?
@Dave if you navigate as if you are going to buy, you can put in a value of 1 for units - it won’t charge you yet - then . The next page should show you your current end distance (ie what you have paid up to already).
@Dave @eagleeyedtiger when you go to Waka kotahi’s website, you can see your RUC balance.

@flambonkscious @Dave The guy who services my car told me many moons ago that some vehicles are set to read slightly higher than they really are - as a safety thing.
