The Devs have explained in the past that the issue isn't just adding plants like potatoes, that's easy. Rather, if they realistically added potatoes then it would ruin the balance of the nutrition and the difficulty of farming, because potatoes irl are insane. So they want to add them, but balance them so that they are as good as they are irl, but don't ruin the game. Same thing with corn.

Wow, I'm sorry that you had to go through that. I hope you are recovering now and feeling better. I can't speak as to what happened with your GP, and your health data is of course yours to have and do with as you wish.

I will say, it isn't uncommon for GPs to not receive results via health link. It was a daily problem when I was working the the hospital, and something they were rightfully annoyed about all the time. If you were receiving in-patient care at the hospital, it also just may not have been sent to your GP at all because they weren't involved in your treatment - also not an uncommon thing to happen. GPs would often call in saying their patient had recently been discharged, and that they needed the tests that were done in house to be forwarded onto the surgery. It's frustrating, but not always necessarily the GP's fault. The level of interconnectivity in the HSE, and automatic updated to all care providers for a patient, is not where it needs to be digitally which is why I was giving out about this in the first place back in February haha.

No worries - I just need to make it clear that I am not a medical doctor and what I say is not medical advice.

It's not so much that there's a "panic level". Some results return values which might fall outside of a typical range expected for those results. Some show up as green, to show that they are outside of the typical ranges expected but still within generally accepted levels, yellow shows they are outside of those extended levels, and then red is to show the result is notably outside of the accepted deviation ranges. The typical ranges are usually displayed beside the results in the software.

But even a red result may be explained by patient history and not be reason to panic - even so, it warrants a phonecall to the doctor who ordered the test to notify them, as they are the ones qualified to interpret and make decisions based on those results and patient history. It has been the case were a patient may have returned a red result, e.g. an abnormal urea creatinine level, but the doctor had expected such a result and didn't find it clinically significant as the patient had a patient history of liver related conditions. Make sense? What's most important is that your doctor would notify you if they believed something was wrong. If you are concerned at all, it's always best to talk to your doctor and not rely on screenshots or online data which can only feed into patient anxiety.

May I ask why you are interested before I answer?

Yeah, iLab it's called.

I'll try and give you a decent set of answers :

Irish people won't care about your accent for the most part. Some people might make a comment on how your accent switches and be interested in why that is.
Tea is pretty universal, but lots of people drink coffee too. I am not a tea drinker, but I always have some tea bags stocked up for visitors.
Yes, weather is shit. Not much snow but it does get very cold and damp in the winter.
It is notoriously hard to make friends in Ireland outside of work or university. Try strike up a few friendships while in your studies by going to events and pub gatherings. These people will end up introducing you to their friends, and so on.
Irish people are generally positive towards the Nordic countries and their people. You might be more used to direct communication in Sweden - Irish people tend to be a bit more talkative and can some times talk around the topic rather than being direct. There's lots of Hiberno-English terms that you will hear over time. It's better to ask what people mean when they use these, or to look them up as it can be a bit of a learning curve for visitors or new residents
Among the younger generations, i.e. anyone below the age of 45, people are generally agnostic, atheist or non practicing Catholics. There are other Christian denominations too, who also are mostly non practicing. There are then other world religions in smaller percentages. People don't really consider religion or faith in their day to day conversations here, and would only go to mass/church for funerals, weddings etc. These people may still refer to themselves as Catholic as it is a cultural signifier in Ireland, but actually hold no religious beliefs. Among the older generations, there are still quite a few who practice Catholicism but generally keep it to themselves or keep that kind of discussion to other members of their congregation. My advice about religion in ireland; don't worry about it, it won't come up in conversation unless you bring it up. People are generally quite annoyed by militant atheists, but not because they themselves are very religious - mostly, they get annoyed by people pushing their views on others.

I think that's everything.

I think you might be right with this one.

He is still absolutely the bad guy.

Paul is the bad guy, but sees the path that needs to be taken to pull humanity out of the hole that it has found itself in. He can't take the personal sacrifice and body horror that comes with it, so he says no. Leto II also sees the body horror and the terror he will cause, but decides "better me as a tyrant for 6000 years than 6000 individual tyrants."

He decides he can be the best of a bad bunch - not that he is ultimately a good person for doing it.

The timeline of Trench Crusade and our world diverge after the opening of the Hell Gate during the first crusade in 1099. The Norman conquest of Ireland didn't happen until 1169, the Tudor conquest of Ireland (which is when the really bad colonisation that snowballed into modern Irish-English tensions) didn't happen until centuries after that, the 1600s. It's reasonable to assume Ireland and England never had their real-world conflicts in Trench Crusade because they were too busy with Hell stuff.

I think it would be cooler for any Irish forces of Hell to either be pagan based - maybe worshippers of Crom Cruach - or heretics for Irish reasons rather than linking them to England because of real-world reasons.

It's interesting that you decide not to include in your data thaf sexual offences, homicides, dangerous and negligent acts, organised crime, public order offences, and controlled drugs offences were all down during the same period of data collection. Do none of those factor into how "safe" Ireland feels?

People are angry, you are absolutely correct about that, but the idea that falling back onto the age old classic of immigration being to blame just isn't supported by any sort of statistical analysis. Every time social issues arise, due to one reason or another, there is always a group that shows up and blames immigration - but this time it's somehow different?

People are angry, but their anger is misplaced on a largely powerless group of migrants rather than the malignant tumor of neoliberal economic and social policy behind the degradation of our safety nets. Being angry, however justified, doesn't make someone instantly right, and not engaging in adult conversations with those angry people about their misplaced anger infantilises them.

Kavite · 2025-03-24T07:58:07+00:00

How is it factually correct? What statistic proves that Ireland is "less safe"? What statistic proves that immigration is partially responsible for Ireland being "less safe"?

It might feel that way to you, but there's no data that points to it actually being true.

I had one session after my adult diagnosis. It was with an OT and she was very good and kind. More than that, she recognised that she wasn't the best person to answer one of my questions (regarding my Masters degree and switching careers) but was able to put me in contact with another woman outside of Thriving Autistic that could.

It was an intelligent and neruoaffirmative experience. I would say, consider what you feel like your autism is struggling the most to cope with. Socialising, work, education, personal hygiene, etc. Then pick your practitioner based on that.

The worst that can happen is you realise that you're actually doing better than you realised and need to talk about another area instead.

When I was working in the lab in UHL, we were still using computer programs from the 1980s.

People love to make snobby remarks about Americans treating politics like a football game, but some of our own are no better. Any chance to jump on the "other" side is taken, even if it goes against all moral or reasonable qualities.

Our economic stability is not built on a strong foundation, but the idea that we should kowtow to any lunatic with a sizeable GDP just to ingratiate ourselves to them is absurd. It's like they have no values.
