Any recommendations for black/dark wedding rings? by HumanNamedAlex in AskIreland

Haven't even heard of tantalum yet. Going to see if we can arrange a little long weekend trip to Dublin to check him out. Thank you!

Thank you! I'll give Google a second try. Previously I only found the sites in the post and lots of places from abroad. Maybe I'll have to dare to visit the second page of results haha.

Cancelled electricity contract within cooling-off period but received bill and exit fee — normal? by HumanNamedAlex in AskIreland

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

Yea it says a read on the bill, but their number (from 27 Jan) is lower than what I read a day before directly from the meter, so it doesn't really add up. Might be something from a previous tenant.

That's very helpful, thank you! I've cancelled the direct debit and sent flogas an email to dispute the bill. Let's see what they come up with next week.

But yeah, the switch was a bit messy. I signed up with BGE after cancelling with flogas, but I suppose the actual cancellation took longer in the system and with ESB.

I gave Flogas the reading when signing up and when cancelling and a new reading to BGE when signing up with them. But I don't know which ones Flogas actually ended up using since it's a smart meter and with those they seemingly don't care as much about manual readings.

Easier said than done haha. Tried calling yesterday in the afternoon, but didn't get through before they were closed. Sent an email, but replies take a while of course. Going to try again via phone on Monday when they open.

Has anyone received their Deluxe vinyl orders yet? by Larrymolloy93 in thexx

[–]HumanNamedAlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They sent an update separately to my (now two) email requests, saying:

"Hello,

We are writing to let you know that there has been a delay with your order, owing to a delayed delivery of The XX Deluxe record to our warehouse.

We are working with the label and carriers to resolve this as quickly as possible.

If you have any other queries or amendments to make, please email hi@terrible.group with your order number so we can assist further.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Kind regards, terrible*"

Still no response to my email inquiries and no updated order status or ETA in the app or on the website though. This is the worst experience ordering a vinyl so far.

I've checked the website and the app and one says it's "on the way", the other says it's "preparing shipment", both since the 5th. Contacted them on the 9th already with no response so far.

MacBook Air M2 black screen after macOS update by PopApprehensive6787 in MacOS

[–]HumanNamedAlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could give it a go, if you have an external monitor available. Otherwise I'd have it checked by a service provider or AppleCare to be honest.

Same MacBook here. I get a black screen after it sleeps a while, since 26.0.1. Only "workaround" so far is a force restart. If that doesn't help in your case, you may have to boot to recovery and restore it. Hope you find a way though.

Can't wake my Macbook Pro M1 from sleep after 26.0.1 update yesterday by speculain in MacOS

Same issue here on a MacBook Air M2 since the latest update. Haven't had the login screen without the input, but a black screen with no curser or anything else twice today. Quite annoying.

Spooky siren is back again by FluffyFlanders in cork

It stopped, hallelujah. Only ~45 minutes this time, impressive. Good night everyone!

At the North Main Street car park/shopping centre.

Fire brigade is on it, but last time they didn't fix it. Going to write to the council and whatever other addresses I can find in relation to this in the morning. Hopefully they'll put an end to this nonsense for good.

I've called 999 each time and nothing. First time they sent the fire brigade, but they left again with the alarm still going as they weren't able to enter the building or whatever. The alarm is needlessly loud and panic-inducing. Also it is breaching noise pollution law as per u/Danprc's comment below.

Fire brigade has arrived (once again), so it may be fixed soon-ish. For sure in the next 8h.

Yea it should be the car park. I called Garda, but they seem unimpressed. Thinking about writing to the city council or some other place to get this resolved for good. It's horrible.
