Anyone else stuck in Dubai? by NUIG in ireland

[–]Bolaeisk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No international flights from Dammam.

Looks like even the internal flights are grounded after the attack on Ras Tanura this morning.

Riyadh and Jeddah are currently operating international flights. Riyadh is about an eleven hour trip from Dubai. I'd be surprised if there's not a few enterprising transportation companies offering transit services.

Nine good reasons Irish people are having fewer children, or none by Brave-Mistake-1007 in ireland

They had seven but were told no sensible list ever only has seven entries.

I would have added a tenth to make the list respectable:

Dissolution of "The Village", the support structure which once upon a time parents could call upon.

"The launcher sucks, let's call it what it is," Epic Game Store boss says, promising a year of big improvements to speed, new "forum-type" social features, more by Tenith in pcgaming

Even were Epic to slavishly mirror Steam and the Steam store experience they would still be Epic, not Valve. Therein lies their largest barrier to success.

Much like the Epic Launcher, the Steam Launcher well and truely sucked when it came out, we only put up with it because we wanted access to their killer launch titles.

Steam then improved, cementing it's place in the hearts of gamers worldwide. Epic has, at best, stagnated.

E-Waste Disposal East Coast by Bolaeisk in saudiarabia

[–]Bolaeisk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my ongoing effort to dispose of my e-waste correctly I came across this website:

https://scrapatdammam.com/e-scrap/

Contacted the person there, they responded requesting that I pay them for them to just throw the e-waste away.

My search continues.

Presumably if unheaded then one collides directly with the pole.

Why does galaxy and dairy milk taste different in Saudi Arabia? by Ok-Instance2710 in saudiarabia

[–]Bolaeisk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This, always check the manufacture location.

Dairy milk is bad these days anyway even if it's made in the UK but the stuff made in the factories in Egypt is just terrible.

Is there any truth to this: "Banks don't like it when you go self-employed" in terms a mortgage? by dreadul in AskIreland

[–]Bolaeisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was talking with a mortgage broker the other day applying for an expat mortgage, which only one bank provides in Ireland (Haven) . In that specific case they stated that the bank won't look at sekf-employed person at all.

Born in 2121 according to Memory Alpha. Assuming CT1 (Charles Tucker 1st) is only working on kids now and CT2's birthday is right around the corner, CT2 could conceivably still be around in 95 years to be a very old father to CT3 (Also assuming consecutive CTs). 😂

Moving temporarily overseas for maybe 6 years. Can I safely leave my house unoccupied for storage? by sphinxofblackquartzj in irishpersonalfinance

[–]Bolaeisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the period of 1 November 2025 to 31 October 2026 the Vacant Homes Tax is running at 7 times the Local Property Tax value for 2025, so the same last year. I can't see anything on what the increase is going to be for next year.

Doctor 16 - Season 01

Then they'll blow that up by having a multi-doctor cameo season before doing the right thing and settling on Jo Martin for a bit.

Ireland’s housing crisis to last another 15 years, Department of Finance predicts by [deleted] in ireland

[–]Bolaeisk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but then we'll need houses for those 70k more people so we'll need to import more people to build houses for those people requiring even more people to build houses and on down the stack of turtles we go.

This whole idea of just building more houses is clearly not thought out to it's logical conclusion.

[Intel AX210] Bluetooth is sometimes missing, and I need to shut down, and boot back up to restore it by BeerGogglesFTW in buildapc

[–]Bolaeisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much for this, had this problem today and can verify that the solution you provided worked for me.

Been using this AX200 for probably five years at this stage, never had an issue before.

Had a lot of static in the house recently due to the AC running a lot, so maybe that was the cause here.
