It’s depressingly ironic that New Zealand skipped gas boilers and went straight to heat pumps, and it’s depressing because before the heat pumps we just had freezing cold houses.
A historic turning point for clean heating in Europe: For the first time, in the first half of 2025 sales of heat pumps in Germany have surpassed those of gas boilers.
This is a big milestone, demonstrating that the transition away from fossil fuels in our buildings is not just a future ambition.

Stop protesting. It's the government. They are the authority. It is, by definition, incorrect to resist them.

This isn't just a thing we do to children. It's a worldwide move for governments and corporates to collect your identity documents before you can speak freely on the socials.
I'm in the minority here, I know, but I don't think this move is the right thing to do about online safety (at least, as a first - and only - step).

It's funny how when luxon said he wouldn't let his faith affect his political career I thought he just meant like leaving abortion alone but he actually meant he wasn't going to help poor people #nzpol

Rosalind Franklin died at 37 of ovarian cancer attributed to radiation exposure from the methods she & her assistant used to photograph a cross-section of the DNA double helix.
Meanwhile, Watson won a Nobel off that work & survived to the ripe old age of 97 by simply: stealing those notes!

Hey folks, as news of Watson's demise spreads, please don't set aside his weighty legacy of misogyny and racism. He was truly among the worst of us. www.vox.com/2019/1/15/18...
DNA scientist James Watson has a remarkably long history of sexist, racist public comments
“People say it would be terrible if we made all girls pretty,” he said in 2003. “I think it would be great.”

It should be requirement that any MP's office paid for by Parliamentary Services be accessible from a public place - the effect of this privately issued trespass notice is that all who have received them cannot now visit the MP's office at all (for protest or other reasons) for a 2 year period.
Several protesters were trespassed from Fendalton Mall for attempting to hold the government to account for their non-actions
