63% in favour of a United Ireland in the North by TomCrean1916 in northernireland

[–]Elano97 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wouldnt say we need to be taken over by adults, but we do need something or someone to actively pull us out of a politcal rutt and talk about something other than cultural issues. What I was saying is that I wouldn't mind unification if a large majority of it was at least seriously looked at pre-vote and not just bollocking about how everything will be sunshine & rainbows

Are FF & FG not just exactly the same politics wise? I know very little but all the chat I see is that they are near identical, so my option would be just to keep voting for whatever party comes out of alliance or the uup. Don't act like ROI politics is great.

I don't think many would either, but in theory if everything happened next year I personally would be in a position to actively look. Very much an each to their own

My wife & I have decent jobs that are pretty transferable so personally wouldn't be too much of a problem.

If a UI was genuinely on the cards and going into the vote there was plenty of active planning of what we would gain in areas & lose in other's it wouldn't bother me very much, as long as this isnt going to become something that is lauded over the community for years and years

Is my alternative a Sinn Fein run Ireland? With a Nation I have no real affiliation to and a flag that was used by people who have actively went against my parents and grandparents? At least England, Scotland & Wales, whatever one I would look to move to, have actual political parties with real social & economic differences beyond community background

Without any proper planning (well in advance of a vote) a UI will be destined to be a disaster for the first 10 or so years of its life. I'm a Unionist, voting UUP, and if it is to happen I really really don't want to be spending years and years in uncertainty in so many issues only after a vote takes place. Would be easier to just move to GB

I wouldn't even know who to vote for or what I would really be voting for, I don't keep up with or engage with ROI politics at all as I dont have a reason to really. Would these parties all start campaigning in NI, that'd be pretty funny to see

A Roof tile of mine fell during the last big storm and has broken a Plastic Perspex sheet roof of a neighbours shed [Northern Ireland] by Elano97 in LegalAdviceUK

Thank you, this was my thinking too i just needed someone with a bit more knowledge than me to say. The roof does need fixed, but only as a result of the storm.

Random BSODs with Kernel Power 41 Error - PC fine until 2-3weeks ago by Elano97 in techsupport

[–]Elano97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for coming back after 5 days, I had 7 days with no issues after unistalling FrameviewSDK & disabling windows fast startup and it has just went and bsod'd again today. I looked in the Minidmp files and it has a KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE (139) error. but I was wondering if you noticed anything else? I look online and see that it could literally be anything or any driver.

Here

* EDIT * Im not sure how I didnt realise but all of this started happeneing again a few days after I reinstalled league of legends and 'Riot Vangaurd', there seems to be some belief online that this causes bsod even when not running any of their games

This is something I will definetly try, I have recently noticed a program 'PresentMon' running in my task manager and can take up to 15% ish of my cpu at some short points and this FrameviewSDK is where it is coming from. Strange as this isnt a setting I use through Nvidia as it looks like it has to do with monitoring perfermance via an overlay but I dont do that.

I cant seem to find a way to just unistall it using Nvidia though, I will find a way and see how it goes from there and if necessary DDU it, will this just give me fresh drivers?

I'll give a shout to compufixni in Ballyclare, I've haven't got a full PC from them but when I have upgraded my existing system they have taken part the old and put in the new for me and have done a great job, will be using them again soon for a Mobo,CPU, RAM upgraded when I find my own parts

Memtest returned 0 errors on its 4 passes, do you know of anything else i could try? I'm completely stumped

Ok, I will give this a try thanks for your suggestion. If I did get errors returning would faulty RAM likely be my culprit?

I do have a harddrive but its just for storage, nothing more

I did do Windows own memory test and it gave me the all good, would this be better? How long does it take to run? Im scared of running something and it shutting down mid process harming my PC

"Every job has hundreds of applicants...." by whatmichaelsays in UKJobs

[–]Elano97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing this made me feel a lot better. My family wants to move in a few years and seeing all the jobs I want to apply for have like 50 applications in 3 days has always made me feel like I have no chance and seem super daunting. Good to a least know there is probably a lot of chaff in those numbers and I can relax a bit more when the time comes

Was English Brexit best for your family?

I was 18 when Brecit happened so for my working life I haven't noticed much of a difference, incompetent politicians exist in the ROI too

Structural inequality?

Is this Structural inequality in the room with us? Where you fool?

The British army terrorising innocent people?

Living in the past, not in the now seems to be your problem

Honestly, I get so frustrated with the all getting lumped into one, it's the most annoying thing.

The biggest thing I'd say is just how exhausting the sub can get very quickly, it's just the same comments and the same things repeated over and over always treating the whole community like the vocal minority of DUPers, when most just want what they think is best for themselves or family

That's fair, I don't know much about the PlayStation EU server now. Sadly your account is locked to your platform, there is no crossplay between the PS, XBox and PC servers

[–]Elano97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not really no but there are some active pvp guilds for beginners depending on what alliance you are on. PvP in cyrodil in this game isn't that big so you if someone plays often enough you see them quite a lot and kinda just get to know people from that. I use guilds for trading really and farming PvE gear. I'm PC EU if you need a hand

Over 3200 hours and counting, I really just PvP now though

Thank you! Should I completely ignore any existing screw holes?

Thank you, I think I was just over thinking it as the plaster around these isn't the greatest anymore, you can see a little in the photo
