  • I remember!

    My family just got a new computer; running the brand new Win95. It was so fancy, I can’t remember what game it was, but I couldn’t get the sound to work, so I tried reinstalling the sound drivers…

    I managed to completely nuke our 2 day old PC. Had to get a friend of my stepdad to come and fix it…basically reinstall Windows. I have no idea what I did, but I did learn from that point, you can basically fix anything not hardware related given a bit of time and knowledge.

    And that was my origin story, been using Linux full time since 2007, and dabbled for a few years before that.













  • From vote.nz

    You don’t need to take your driver licence, your passport, or anything else with you to a voting place. No ID is required.

    Your EasyVote card, if you have one, will make voting faster – but you can vote without it.

    When you go to vote, you’re either marked off the printed roll at the voting place, or your details are recorded. During the official count, we compare all the rolls from all the voting places in each electorate to make sure everyone has only voted once.

    So you don’t require ID, but you get sent an easy vote card, to speed up the process when you go to vote. It is super quick though, usually less than 5 minutes to vote usually.
