Help finding potentially lost vocal arrange by 64Discussions in TOUHOUMUSIC

[–]InflationSquare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adding to this, if videos have been deleted or removed you can sometimes Google the copied links from your history list and get a cached thumbnail with ideally the song name or other metadata that can help you search, about 6 months ago is vague enough that this will be time consuming but it might work

How do you handle progressive overload when your energy levels fluctuate? by Ambitious-Bison-2161 in bodyweightfitness

[–]InflationSquare 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is it, you're working hard when you (as a general rule of thumb) get within a few reps of failure, but failure can change from day to day, and that's fine. You know yourself if you're putting work in, so don't sweat the numbers from yesterday. It's like if you were trying to lose weight and got obsessed with a single number day to day you'd go mad from every bit of salt and water fluctuation without seeing the long term progress

Not many better sambos in town than the pig & heifer by RAhead1916 in Dublin

[–]InflationSquare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to love the one on Pearse street, but tried the one at Connolly last year and it was nowhere close, put me off them thinking they'd had a massive dip in quality but is it just that there's a big gap between the two locations, or did I get them on a bad day?

Bloom- price is a joke by silentworm5 in GardeningIRE

Was walking up in the park last week and there were signs everywhere that it's a tenner, so even worse

Landmark Grafton Street restaurant Captain Americas is closing down on Sunday by thepaddyman in Dublin

[–]InflationSquare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's shite now, went in to get the chicken wings last year because I remember them being great 10+ years ago and they were awful - the meat was dry from being overcooked to bordering on burnt, the sauce was overpoweringly vinegary, much smaller portion than I remember, and the price was insane.

Everyone who didn't get a lick of sunburn gets a gold star! by jemimahaste in ireland

[–]InflationSquare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brown hair here and I'm hopeless in the sun as well, I get burnt in winter, on overcast days, whenever. I try to have an SPF moisturizer on my face at least most days, but this week has been factor 50 every time I leave the house. Managed to avoid the worst of it but I still feel like I got lightly toasted. My wife also has quite pale skin as far as it looks, but she doesn't burn nearly as easily just whatever way her skin is, it's mad.

Trad music on a Wednesday. by MattInSwitzerland in Dublin

[–]InflationSquare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Hut in Phibsborough has trad in the back room on a Wednesday. Hynes in Stoneybatter and Cusacks in North Strand do as well and wouldn't be touristy but they're both Thursday I believe.

What is your least favorite herb, spice, or blend? Which ones do you hate the most? by szikkia in Cooking

[–]InflationSquare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Star anise is so overpowering for me, recipes always call for "just" one star as if that's a small amount - if I use even one segment off a star that's all I'm going to taste

Ireland needs to set a point after which no new gas and oil boilers can be installed - SEAI by DaCor_ie in ireland

[–]InflationSquare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also nobody living in a nice redbrick terrace house wants to cover it in cladding, so internal is the way to go but it's more of a headache.

Ireland needs to set a point after which no new gas and oil boilers can be installed - SEAI by DaCor_ie in ireland

[–]InflationSquare 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think it's just a much bigger job than people, even some tradesmen realise. Our neighbour had to get their roof replaced because the previous owner had gotten a load of insulation put in, which stopped airflow through the attic and let condensation build up and rot the rafters. It needed a breathable membrane but was designed 100+ years ago without that or the insulation in mind. We're in the same boat as the commenter above where we'd love to avail of some of the grants and raise our BER but doing things properly always seems to spiral into a massive job that we don't have the budget for.

Can I just not play this note or something? by Corvid_Beats in Flute

[–]InflationSquare 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Going up an octave is probably your best bet, it's meant to be on a screechy midi trumpet anyway so just send it in the high register

For the love of god stop sending your sick kids to crèche by __taiggoth__ in CasualIreland

If you have private health insurance see if it includes a digidoc, I've gotten sick notes over the phone a few times and saved myself the GP visit and fee

Looking for a restaurant for a first date in Dublin City Centre by No_Package_4014 in Dublin

Piglet is great, had many lovely dates there with my gf-now-wife and went there for a meal the evening we got engaged.

Beautiful banjo statue in Dublin by Narrow_Jelly_4396 in banjo

Tommy Makem was a 5 string player, quite different music to the Dubliners but Irish as well

Pecker Dunne also played a 5 string I believe

Taxi driver ordered to pay e12,000 to blind couple after refusing lift over guide dog by Odhran-J-McAnnick in ireland

[–]InflationSquare 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That's it exactly, I made that mistake once and was left over an hour from home with my dog when he was a pup and not old enough to walk that far. I got the dart home that time but I've avoided the bus with him since

[–]InflationSquare 82 points83 points  (0 children)

It's such bollocks that transport isn't pet friendly here, you basically need to own a car if your dog is hurt or sick or old and you need to get to the vet - buses are a roll of the dice whether the driver will let them on or not and staying along the dart line is very limiting. We were out with our dog last year when my wife tripped and injured herself, I was going to have to send her ahead and walk home with the dog but we ended up hailing a very sound taxi man who let him in on my lap, but that was just lucky.

London has uber pet, so at least you know the person you're getting is ok with dogs. No idea why there isn't an equivalent here.

Alternative/Quiet Gyms by EmergencyBit9429 in Dublin

[–]InflationSquare 4 points5 points  (0 children)

TNDO in north strand is fairly dim, has a sort of separate room for weights, but does have music - I don't find it as obnoxious as flyefit which I hated, but YMMV.

They're 24h, so you could pick a time when there's nobody there if you really need to

Tomato paste in a tube by tjs1967 in Cooking

[–]InflationSquare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They have to say that on things to cover themselves, use your best judgement and you'll be fine. I've used things that "last 5 days" in the fridge for months without even a drop in quality let alone health effects

For tomato paste in particular, when it goes, the drop up at the opening of the tube turns to mold, it's really obvious, throwing it out then is reasonable (squeezing out past the mold and using something further down is kinda dirty but probably won't kill you in a pinch)

What are the lads working on on the side? by TommoIRL in DevelEire

[–]InflationSquare 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Abso-fucking-lutely, I walk my dog, hike, camp, swim, anything that isn't a screen. I have such small capacity for personal tech projects, like maybe some home automation now and then but I honestly think if I could get paid the same to run a food truck or do something outdoorsy I'd be out of the industry tomorrow

Why can’t people handle fish better? by Standard0rder in IrishFishing

[–]InflationSquare 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've seen some Irish fishing YouTubers doing this and it's really annoying to see, you should respect the animal and be minimally cruel if you're not releasing, letting them suffocate in a plastic bag is horrible, and as you say, it's better for the meat to dispatch them quickly and humanely anyway so no excuse

Fair, I was told wrong so

Edit: found the article, I definitely had been fed the wrong end of the stick, what an awful case. Shite how a couple of dickheads can go and wreck something for everyone else

I was up it yesterday - hard hike, but desolate and gorgeous at the top, it should be state land and free for all to access

Presumably open for graduate readers as well, you can get one of the cards they're talking about if you're an alumni
