Why do I rarely/never see anyone using locky docks?

Why do I rarely/never see anyone using locky docks?

Do people not know that you can tap your snapper on them for free bike storage without having to carry a bike lock? No app required!

I’ve used them a few times, both in the Hutt and in Wellington CBD, but every time I am the only user.

I was telling my 4F daughter the names of the various heavy machinery on a building site, and realised I don’t know what this machine is called.

My guess is something like “piling machine”? Am I right or wrong?

Using the side of a cargo bike for ads as a passive income

We are a low income family using a loan to pay back our cargo bike. Is it socially acceptable to offer the sides of the cargo area to local businesses for ads to help us pay back the loan?
Has anyone else done this and had success (or not had success)?

(edit to remove word “kosher” and replace with “socially acceptable” since this was causing confusion)

ICE vehicles and EV chargers

Pretty disappointing experience at Hello Stranger cafe today. Wanted to grab a coffee with the Mrs and charge our car at the same time. Both spaces were taken up by ICE vehicles. The staff asked one person to move and another ICE driver immediately stole the spot. Tried calling out to him and he just flagged me off.

The staff said they'd ask him to move. After 5-10min, they come out and say "oh he's just paying and will come out." Not sure why he's allowed to finish up while we were put out and had to wait even through we'd been there much longer.

Anyway, told the staff that we won't be back there if that's how they're going to run things.

Andy Serkis’ performance in his reading of the Audiobooks

Just wanted to drop a line and just say how frickin‘ amazing his performances are in these books. Just finished the Hobbit and started The Fellowship of the Ring yesterday.

Anyone else reckon AirPods ought to be found in the “items” menu?

I don’t think of them as a “device”.

Regular offender. I posted the van in the background in the same spot several months ago. I have to walk along here with a pram and there is a woman who uses a wheelchair across the road too. Bloody inconsiderate.
