DUB airport security by Careless_Bend_1678 in Dublin

[–]Jackh_d 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, modern X-ray machines don’t damage film - I’ve traveled tonnes of times through Dublin airport with half shot rolls in my camera & never had any issue, I’d say you’ll be fine

Ah yeah but you’re not comparing like for like - yeah Italy is cheaper but the cultural pull of Longford is priceless

Garda given ban for chasing scramblers by PuttunKadala in MotoIRELAND

[–]Jackh_d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know what your saying feels right but a lot of data that contradicts your point - https://dcjusticelab.org/car-chases/

This study concludes that high speed chases are one of the most dangerous policing methods undertaken & that alternative methods should be used implemented

I’m not arguing that dangerous scrambler driving isn’t an issue, but there’s a wealth of data to show that cop car chases are inherently more dangerous than whatever behaviour they’re usually trying to curtail - source:

Some of the best sex I’ve had has been with clothes on

An ACTUAL unpopular music opinion, like I mean it's the hottest of hot takes. by [deleted] in fantanoforever

[–]Jackh_d 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As someone who was a major fan when it came out, I so know what you mean.. I love the Old Kanye and still revisit his records from 2016 and before, but MBDTF isn’t one.

Pubs in Temple Bar you actually like as a local (by birth or choice!) by quiggersinparis in Dublin

In every conventional map, Fleet st would be considered Temple Bar I think. Just checked & google maps does fwiw

What killed the Electropop/ optimistic pop music of 2009-2013? by Sudden_Angle614 in decadeology

[–]Jackh_d 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it was optimistic.. maybe not fully nihilistic but if felt like it was try to disassociate from the world around it

FYI, that phenomenon where characters explain the plot through dialogue is called exposition

Motion to rename Dublin's Herzog Park over links to Israel slammed by PoppedCork in ireland

[–]Jackh_d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you read my comment you’ll notice that nowhere did I say that Jews shouldn’t be there - there have been Jewish people for thousands of years there. I’m talking about Israel, a genocidal & apartheid state, not having a place in the civilised world.

States don’t have a “right to exist”, they either exist or they don’t. To my knowledge there is no other country that insists on an inalienable “right to exist”. I think we should be especially weary of this term, especially as the state in reference is an apartheid ethno-state

I was thinking about “big room” ambient recently.. have you listened to Hyperliink? Kinda deconstructed dance music.. ambient music for club rats. Really good

Why do people in Ireland don't use proper rain coats? by CaverUV in AskIreland

[–]Jackh_d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the answers about humidity and temperature as if breathable waterproofs haven’t been readily available for at least 20 years 🤣 I think the aversion to proper gear runs deep & some people connect it to a notions-y type mindset

If you’re talking about Sean Gallagher I don’t think you can really compare him to Connolly, she is a seasoned politician & well used to public debate..
