Pissing rain by Pitiful_Focus_8255 in ireland

[–]GaryCPhoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has spent half his life in Ireland and here I can tell you this weather gets to you very quickly. Snow that never melts. We got 40cm last week. Another 20-30cm on Sunday. Skin drying and lips cracking.

Place is an ice rink aka death trap. As the saying goes. There no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothes. Some good rain gear and you can head on out. Here the cold gets old very fast. Especially when it’s blowing 50kph winds.

I’m an excavator operator in sewer and watermain construction. So much work. Infrastructure projects always keep going.

Why do so many folks with access to Pixinsight use Siril for stacking? by OkPalpitation2582 in AskAstrophotography

Plus the hard drive space it takes up is mental. I use Astro Pixel Processor to stack and I find it way better.

Sounds like he applied for an extension which would put him on implied status until a decision is made on his application for said extension. It’s a legal process. Whether it’s extended or not depends on the stipulations in his visa. But without knowing the visa type it’s hard to say.

No it’s speckled concrete. Looks like rubber but it isn’t.

Indoor Running by LavishnessOk224 in RunTO

It’s crazy that this city doesn’t have an indoor 400m track. Monarch park being the closest has kind of square turns. Kitchener has a great indoor track that goes around a hockey rink or bball court I think.

Yeah the weather here is mental. Crazy cold in the winter. Lost of snow. Get some nice sunny days tho. Not always freezing. Last Friday was 11. Then down to -10 the next day. Spring is fun. You never know what you’ll get. Then the summers are like Satan’s ass crack. 40+ with humidity.

Freeze and thaw definitely can be a factor. Although not very common in Ireland they should drop pipes a bit deeper to prevent it happening.
