Online EFTPOS is only a thing for some banks. Not universal like card based.

Universal online EFTPOS and a version of paywave, and I'd almost never need a credit card.

Alternate, alternate headline.

EFTPOS still refuses to pull head out of own arse, won't offer competition to price gouging Visa. Even though consumers would flock to their service in a heartbeat.

Reasonable to avoid travelling to or transiting through the US currently, and for the foreseeable future.

Is there a non-paywalled version?

I'm not sure you understand industrial automation.

[–] absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 1 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

That is not really an option.

If I was advising someone building a new plant today, I'd tell them to go European.

Probably Siemens for the most part, Schneider is also an option, but their engineering environment sucks more than Siemens.

Unfortunately Rockwell has the best software, from a software engineering point of view. No serious open source options in the industrial space yet.

I liked the Lambrini Girls; it reminded me of old school punk, it was my #1.

The unplug Trump wasn't reall that good, seemed to be jumping on the band wagon a little too much for my taste.

Love the video for Give In To You.

How about "THE Cinnamon Bun"

or more controversially the "FUCBun" obviously no hidden meaning at all

To give one example, automation equipment.

Sure there are alternatives, but changing is the work of years and millions of dollars, just to get what you are currently getting. For big plants, in may be it the 10's of millions.

A large percentage of the NZ automation market is using Rockwell gear, an American company.

Welcome, and bring the syrup.

I would look to expand it to other countries in the future, in an EU style free movement of citizens type of arrangement.

 

Is it really a dismissal level event? I mean, everyone sees how the world is turning....he just said it out loud.

 

I'm making the bold assumption, that most people here are not running, in either local body or national elections.

Everyone loves the complain about what "public servants" do. So why not step up and do something about it?

No accusation intended or implied. Just curious.

 
 
 

Are there any legal experts that want to weigh in on this.

Can the police in New Zealand force unlock your device with your biometrics?

How does this work with NZ law?
