I've bought a bunch of stuff from Cactus Outdoors over the years, but I'm finding that their cuts don't really fit me very well and are also a bit on the higher end price-wise. Love their bags though. Do you have any NZ-made brands that you can recommend?

Dungeon meshi is a recent one that comes to mind

I wonder how they're going to manage the petrol companies from keeping the cost high and pocketing the extra once fuel tax is gone. Is the pricing breakdown of fuel freely available to the public?

I'm pretty pessimistic about this:

  1. Say no
  2. Google still scrapes your site to train their AI
  3. People don't care that its wrong, still use Google instead of other search engines

Find a backpack or messenger bag you love, and use an insert instead. I don't like advertising I have equipment.

If you're doing any work on cars or bikes, they rip 10 minutes into your work anyways so you get a vent and blackened fingers

I've had good results removing the coating with armor etch, but be warned that the uncoated plastic lens are now more prone to scratches. I was able to extend the life of my glasses about 6 months before I got annoyed with the microscratches building up, was able to save up for a new pair.

Same here, CS6 PS+LR was the last one I bought.

I'd argue that there is, but we are just too used to the Lightroom or Photoshop way of thinking/workflow. We don't entertain other programs because it is difficult to learn a new way of doing things and return to a place of competency. And the less people use a piece of software, the less there will be documentation to help others learn.

I'm not sure if its a conspiracy theory or verified, but I do think that Adobe were okay with people (amateurs) pirating their software. We didn't have the money to pay for it anyway, but it got us to become proficient at using Photoshop so that when we eventually had money, we were locked in.
