My old PC has developed a problem:   it restarts by itself.  Happened two times since this morning.

First time was when it woke up from 'sleep', after using it for about 5 mins, it restarted by itself.  2nd time, just a few mins ago, it did the same.

Help, please!

Worth a read as we are seeing a lot of right-wing behaviour in NZ.

Note there is a typo in the end of the article, second last paragraph: "same" should be "name"

This morning.
Pre-sale overloaded the website, had to wait 20mins in the queue and said I had 80,000 in front of me.
Makes me wonder if it was full of bots on there or something because the venue can't hold that many people.
Spoke to a friend and he told me it was over 100,000 people in line!
He was unable to find any tickets by the time it let him in.
Main sale starts Friday, so hopefully he has a second chance.

My friend Alan is looking for a girlfriend online. Occasionally someone sends him a sexy picture and I have told him not to believe everything he sees. I have heard there is a room full of people pretending to be looking for love but they are very mercenary and are just out for whatever they can get.
I have heard somewhere that it is possible to find out where a picture originates but I don't know how it is done so I was hoping there is someone who can enlighten me so he could acertain where it has originated and so hopefully not be conned. 
Thank you for your help.
Roscoe.

An interesting discussion I've seen elsewhere is whether Chris Hipkins is regretting ruling Winston out?

Personally I suspect he's quite happy watching the coalition clownshow unfold before us all and very glad Labour isn't the one being played by Uncle Winston.

How interesting...

I used to be able to send email to myself to test that it's sending and receiving correctly.

But for no reasons, I sent an email to myself, my Outlook 2019 sent it out OK,  Xtramail  (web) received it fine but Outlook 2019 doesn't receive it.

Please help.

The SUV hasn't helped, but the auto manufacturers have been upsizing us for a long time. Remember the Honda Civic ?  A little 1200cc 2 door hatch, now the Civic is a large 4 door with a 2 litre engine. Same with the Corolla. Utes used to be car sized, now they are huge...but dwarfed by the American pickups.  Upsize - it's what the public wanted...or did they talk us into it ?

Not me of course, I've never bought a new car.

The new govt's policies on various things will set back race relation by decades according to commentators.

David Syemour seems to be either an uninformed idiot or he's  a racist; I wonder which it is...

'They've burnt the house down': Commentators fear new Govt will set race relations back by decades (msn.com)




"Three parties have come together, but some fear their policies will tear the country apart.
"I think they've burnt the house down and literally repealing everything that they assume to be race-based," M─üori affairs commentator Mihingarangi Forbes said.
"We've got to get away from the idea that all M─üori are disadvantaged, they're not. And we've got to get away from the idea that disadvantaged people are M─üori, that's not true either," said ACT leader David Seymour.

Several of the ACT Party and New Zealand First's policies being adopted by the new Government that relate to M─üori and the Treaty of Waitangi include:

• removing co-governance for public services
  
• introducing a Treaty Principles Bill to define the Treaty
  
• disestablishing the M─üori Health Authority
  

• re-writing the school history curriculum
  
• scrapping the use of te reo M─üori in Government departments
