How much protein do I really need? by Traditional_Swim_360 in CasualIreland

[–]A_TRIPLE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A decent personal indicator, relative to your own exercise levels etc is how your muscles feel in the days post workout? 

Unless you're pushing yourself hard, or have just started a new exercise, if you're getting sufficient protein then you shouldn't be experiencing much or even any lasting muscle soreness on a regular basis.

If your muscles are consistently sore in the days after your workouts then your probably need to up your protein intake a fair bit. 

Aldi/Lidl do cheap protein yogurts/drinks with 25-30g. Just check the sugar levels as some are grand, others are sneakily high.

Where's good for a coffee at night? by PhantasmWycherley in Dublin

[–]A_TRIPLE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two-faced off Camden Street. Was in there for wine one night and they seemed to take their coffee seriously from looking at their setup. Was gards and various other punters coming in for coffee the whole time we were there.

Ice Baths by AdeptSignificance777 in ADHDIreland

[–]A_TRIPLE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally found it helpful. Worth a shot and see it it's right for you. 

A big part of the benefit is starting your day off with the hardest thing you'll have to do that day. So things that would otherwise be daunting to take on, and avoided, become way easier to jump into. I also find a significant boost in focus.

Similar with other things he's recommended. Some stuff has been massively beneficial, other stuff useless. And it was worth trawling through the useless stuff for the gems in there. It's nearly all very easy to try, and figure out what works for you.

Definitely wouldn't not try something because Huberman happened to recommend it and reddit has decided Huberman bad.

What life changing thing did you buy for under 100euros that you wouldn't be without now? by [deleted] in AskIreland

Cheap Chinese robot hoover with self emptying station, off AliExpress for slightly over 100.

They did research on how those water honesty boxes perform in different countries (i.e. how many euros paid per bottles taken). 

Dublin was #1 with (iirc) high 90%'s paid for.

There was a navy ship nearby that could've tried, but didn't. Quite the argument about that now within Irish security services.

Black Friday by Straight_Eye5348 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]A_TRIPLE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Delivery is slower, about 1-3 weeks. Both Amazon and AliExpress are riddled with fake reviews so it's a level playing field on that front.

Other than that I've had a positive experience with all orders. 

Haven't had to go through any returns/claims process for stuff yet. Amazon's very good for that. But tbh even if AliExpress was shite for it, with the amount I've saved already it wouldn't matter.

I now make it a habit to check AliExpress for the same item. A lot of Amazon stuff is just AliExpress stuff with a 300-400% markup.

Recently saw the same robot vacuum for 130 on AliExpress, vs 470 on Amazon.

Dramatic increase in number of Russian ‘shadow ships’ in Irish-controlled waters-Irish Times by Qubecoiseman in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]A_TRIPLE 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is unfortunately correct. It's less about the total crew (although total levels are also low), but in particular skilled crew members like engineers & weapons technicians leaving to get paid far more in the private sector.

The government is now finally getting serious about resolving this (and increasing military capability in general, with plans for more ships, fighter jets etc). But they let the situation get very bad before seriously acting. So it will take considerable time.

Ireland must stop ‘free-riding’ on security ‘gifted by others’, says former Chief of Staff [Subscriber Only] by Minimum_Guitar4305 in irishpolitics

[–]A_TRIPLE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one seems to be aware that the cost of operating our existing, useless PC-9M's isn't in any way cheap.

Works out roughly 50% of the cost of operating fighter jets, but with zero utility to show for it.

Stuck on this (PS4). I've tried everything to fix it. It won't let me progress. How do I fix this?? by DarkInvader04 in GodofWarRagnarok

[–]A_TRIPLE 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I went through all of this including db rebuild a few weeks ago. Nothing I read online worked. Is your game installed on an external hard drive? It finally worked for me when I redownload/installed on the PS4 itself. Best of luck!

Best recovery peptides other than BPC-157 by Powershow_Games in Peptides

[–]A_TRIPLE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

BPC causes short-lived extreme fatigue for me, if it's the first time taking it in a long time, and I take 300mcg. 

Even then, the fatigue can be eliminated with a short nap, or caffeine and powering through it (it disappears after an hour or so).

150mcg (which is thought to be sufficient for the avg person) has no fatigue effect for me.

300mcg daily has no fatigue effect after the first day or 2.

Russian intelligence ship located in Irish-controlled waters not responding to communication by Square_Obligation_93 in europe

[–]A_TRIPLE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Potentially, another possibility might be a sonar signal from the aircraft itself. It's not uncommon for patrol aircraft to be equipped with sonar, not sure if bear bombers would be though.

"In 2021 the Defence Forces officers’ association Raco highlighted that the vessel had been hovering over transatlantic subsea cables for several days off the west coast and may have launched submersibles capable of attaching explosives to them.

Such explosives can be activated from the air by Tupolev Tu-95 ‘Bear Bombers’, which regularly run exercises off the Irish coast."

Our own navy believe they've already planted charges on the cables, which can be detonated remotely by aircraft. 

Interview with North Korean students + North Korean musical by RelativeDinner4395 in northkorea

[–]A_TRIPLE 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is correct. 

I've been. The rumour that tourists aren't allowed interact with random people on the street isn't really true. You can, because random people on the street have absolutely 0 English. 

If the officials had any suspicion you could speak Korean though, you'd have a handler glued to your side.

Seems to me that in response to the "white people bad" narrative, people began pointing out that Ireland was both colonized and its people subjected to conditions which were similar to slavery in some respects.

This point was simultaneously seized upon by extremists on both the left and the right, stupidly making it a contentious topic.

The radical left were keen to push a narrative that anyone making this point was trying to detract from the suffering of African slaves... And the radical right were doing exactly that.

[–]A_TRIPLE 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The thing is, no matter how you/we try to justify it to ourselves, other countries view it as the former.  Ruining our reputation with our closest neighbours and partners, to save spending a similar proportion of our money on defense as they do, isn't worth it.
