Sad Bidbuds days are over
Posted by: nzoomed - 16-09-2024, 10:12 AM - Forum: Trademe Discussion - Replies (10)

Just noticed I was unable to place a bid through bidbud and got the message that the auction was unable to have a bid placed on it due to changes TM is rolling out.
Dont know if another developer will take over the project or develop something else entirely, but it was a useful app to have.
Looks to me that TM is changing their API or something.

Because all those climate saving electric cars will need mined minerals to build them.
The green party should be in full support.

Too bad about the innocent lives killed in Ukraine,  the weather is apparently more important.

  Govt told free school lunches have profound effect
Posted by: Lilith7 - 13-09-2024, 11:39 AM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - Replies (10)

And they were told that BEFORE they made the cuts. So they knew the cuts were going to have an impact on the well being of kids, but went ahead anyway.

What the hell is wrong with these idiots - just feed the kids for pity's sake!  Dodgy
Cost doesn't matter since whatever it may be, its cheap at the price if it means kids are better able to learn; that benefits all of us. How the devil can they deliberately ignore this, knowing the result.

I do so hope this govt is on track to be a one term govt...

  Seymour digging his own grave?

According to this, he may well be. With any sort of luck...

His divisive ideas seem not to be going down at all well, despite having been welcomed with open arms by racist plonkers. I think this govt has had quite a shock, that so many - including a large-ish number of pakeha - have turned out to be strongly opposed to their appeal to the racist element.
