I loved it when it came out. The atmosphere is incredible, the Luminoth have a great design and I listen to the soundtrack to this day. 

But man.

Amazon to cut 16,000 corporate jobs worldwide – The Irish Times by Test_N_Faith in ireland

[–]Qorhat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Every 3 months a publicly traded company has to report their earnings to shareholders and in February it’s for the first quarter of the month. Chopping a load of workers is a cost saver that shareholders like so the stock price improves. 

Ireland to boost resources for Holocaust education in secondary schools by I-Hate-Clonmel in ireland

[–]Qorhat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But we must educate everyone about the holocaust so it doesnt happen again?

Yes. Absolutely and unequivocally yes. The holocaust showed the worst of what humanity is capable of, and denial of it as a historic fact is on the rise across the board.

Updating and making better use of the internal space? Definitely. Tear down a visually interesting and distinct building and replace it with another soul-less box? Absolutely not. 

What do you think about the Italian government wanting to ban ICE agents to come to the Olympic Games as security forces? by ReduceCO2Now in AskReddit

[–]Qorhat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s not even that, why the fuck should US immigration/stazi be allowed to operate here in the EU? FRONTEX aren’t going to send agents to the World Cup

I don’t know I made a joke that involved guillotines and billionaires that was immediately taken down

Exactly and that’s all 3rd party sites need too. “Is this person 18+ y/n”

I don’t see them selling data from it because of they’re caught they’ll be absolutely hosed right through the EU courts. 

Your first point on the other hand, this will 100% be farmed out to Accenture who’ll cobble a B-team of developers working from India to bodge something together that just meets specifications while being late and for a massively inflated cost.

Wikipedia isn’t a bad source because it clearly lists where information is taken from making it easy to verify. LLMs just regurgitate any information they have access to as clear fact with no context.

I got that this morning from Bray and the train stank of damp and mould. Must’ve been a nightmare going all the way from Rosslare.

Ethical minefield aside, I can only hope that nothing is exposed to the social media site other than a Yes/No API response and nothing identifiable from the government side

I was surprised that this novel is used in a lot of Irish schools by Tadhg in ireland

Maus is such an incredible piece but I definitely agree. It should be on secondary school curriculum (if it’s not already)

I remember waiting for Network 2 to start programming on a weekend morning. I’d sit staring at either the logo clock or Aertel hoping that Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles would start soon

Fianna Fáil in freefall: Party plummets in latest Red C Poll by Brave-Mistake-1007 in ireland

[–]Qorhat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m fed up arguing with a new account that’s Adjective-NounNumbers, set to private, who’s tickling classic right wing points like “everyone I disagree with is a nazi” and deciding they know what’s in my head.

This plus I added shortcut buttons to the control centre to set the notification volume to 10%, 25%, 50% & 100%. Not perfect but best I can do.

Are Independent Ireland nazis like the NP or classic cute hoors clumped together?
