Stumbled on to a podcast called "Real Dictators". This ... err ... example shows up.
Apparently Macias existed within my awareness of international news growing up in the 70s and 80s, but for some reason didn't feature in news reports that made my consciousness...
Seems his successor/nephew Obiang remains El Presidente since he took over in 1982, and according to said podcast is the longest serving President if any Country in the world (Wiki says 2nd longest, but that nay be semantics arounp "pres", "head of state", "leader", etc).

@Victor-Meldrew I only bought a new ride on about 18 months back, but at the time I had looked at some robo-mowers and they seem to have improved remarkably since, and pricing come down too.

We also had Ben Hamer a futurist speak, wasn't sure what to expect from him, but whatever I expected, he exceeded it, fascinating stuff, and he paints the picture more from the positive than the negative we see so often in the media.
On the original topic of the thread, WWE will be available in NZ via Netflix from 2025 although apparently PLEs (PPVs in old terms) are available now if logging in from NZ. Presumably that will be the end of the Network for the time being.
The company behind the world's worst IT outage has given gift cards to its teammates and partners to apologise and thank them for the extra work during last week's meltdown.
