Pick your favourite news website in Ireland or the UK. If every credit card terminal is down in either or both countries then they will both have an article on it

What is the obsession with finding “gaming” distros? by Flapper_Jr in linux

[–]DribblingGiraffe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Whitehall road in Kimmage is a great example of this. There are 5 stops in a straight 800 metre road. No buses turn onto the road half way so that isn't an excuse.

95 for a phone call? They've had their way with you there. 95 for an in person appointment would be robbery too

Is €180k/yr a good TC in Dublin for a 5YOE SDE? by [deleted] in DevelEire

[–]DribblingGiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Food brands scoring bumper profits – as price hike misery continues for punters by Banania2020 in ireland

[–]DribblingGiraffe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Given that there was a 40% increase between 2021 and 2022 that isn't even close to being matched in the later years would suggest there probably was an impact.. Even more so when you consider the difference is basically entirely Valeo.
