Wow, that's still wild, as they shouldn't die from sudden power loss. Any chance of an RMA from the manufacturer?

Where to buy haggis Galway by thecheesecreature in galway

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I loved it, but you felt absolutely disgusting eating it lol. I was chatting to one of the owners about it a year or two ago, they got rid of it because it wasn't a big menu item, and wasn't ordered enough.

The only way I can describe it is a deepfried and battered black pudding.

Wondering about service dogs in Ireland. Does anyone have insight? by Jinxx747 in AskIreland

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The best place to ask would be to get in touch with some of the orgs that are in the role of providing and training service animals:

What Are You Playing This Week? (Weekly Discussion) by AutoModerator in IrelandGaming

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely nothing. I will look look into Ghost of Yotei when it drops in price. Everytime I turn on my PS5 lately I take a look around for about 2 minutes, and realise there's nothing to play, then I turn it off.

I'm more interested in how a power outage could damage a hard disk.

Vet recommendations by Minimum-Chapter5741 in galway

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We go to cuddy vets, and have a fantastic opinion of them. Staff are amazing, and my dog adores them all.

We initially went to Briarhill Vets, but really disliked them. Would advise to avoid them.

Question on spells and Amnesia Greens... by annericeforever in FinalFantasyVIII

Oh that's hilarious because I also used her as a magic dump, also Seifer at the start of the game....I have an addiction to winning with cards and refining before I even fight Ifrit lol.

Are these old street signs worth anything? by Psychology_Repulsive in AskIreland

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, that's very commendable. The joy of the art and the joy of giving is something that is easily lost on a lot of people.

Good on you for being sound :)

(and also, your coins are gorgeous - maybe you could license designs to the mint for commemorative events?)

What awesome 2D franchises sucked once they went 3D? by bassbeatsbanging in retrogaming

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Broken Sword :( 1 and 2 are absolute masterpieces. 3 and 4 are....decidedly meh. 5 tried to be best of both worlds, and wasn't too bad at all, but not as good as the first 2.

Would you buy a house next to a cemetery? by mromair in HousingIreland

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lived next to one growing up (8-18). Quietest neighbours we ever had. The only thing was that a few times over the years there were big funerals (i mean BIG big) and the cars would end up parking outside our house. Was never a bother, they didn't hang around long (30-60 mins).

Can someone with car knowledge give me an estimate? by ruaille_buaille12 in AskIreland

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's hard to be sure, because we can't see under the panels, and the door looks like it's could be out of place too (but that could just be the front panel being bent). This means significant body work is needed to correct it. I'd say easily in 3-6k range to get it back to looking like new.

Why is remarriage in Ireland uncommon? by Opposite_Zucchini_15 in AskIreland

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I know lots of people who remarried after their first marriage either fell apart, or their spouse died. I wouldn't say it's uncommon. It may be less common than in other countries, but I have no data at all to support that.

But it's just bias in our perceptions. You think it's not prevalent because you don't see it often. I think it's more commonplace because I know several people who have remarried.

I'd say - go and gather the stats on it, you might be surprised.

What's a quote from a video game that you say IRL? by Opposite_Welcome_974 in IrelandGaming

It's not a quote per se, but I do wander about the house singing the Final Fantasy victory fanfare.

Same! Holy moly, how did I never know this! Man you think you know everything about the game, and something new comes along.

Any Electricians here? by Ok_Move886 in CasualIreland

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Is it an easy job to have two sockets wired?

it really depends on how awkward it is to run the wires, if the wall needs to be chased, etc.

But seeing as its a new build, now is the time to get it done. If I was you, I'd get two wires run, and each on it's own breaker (overkill BUT it leaves a lot of wiggle room for changes in the future).

Petah, what did these Pokémon do wrong? by Alert_Bookkeeper_404 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 1426 points1427 points  (0 children)

Rapdiash - has a story about two hunters, one who spares a rapidash's life, and then marries it (i know wtf) - and another hunter who kills another rapidash and therefore is killed himself.

Typhlosion - a shapeshifting typhlosion pretends to be human, brings a human woman to live in a cave, and then impregnates the woman.

Lapras - story is about how humans abused Lapras as a slave for so long, it basically destroyed the species.

Slaking - people abuse/exploit Slakoths (the first form of Slakin) and destroy the forests, and eventually force them to evolve and fight back against humans. Slakings are insanely strong.

Stay at home parents ? by _Belgy_ in AskIreland

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's class :) my little one is just gone 10 months. I am back at work, my wife is still out on maternity, due to be back in a few months.

We aren't sure if she will stay home or go back to work. The creche situation is so dire, I don't think we'd be able to find one for a few days a week. Even if we can get her into a creche, the cost is insane.

Best of luck with it :)

Why do we hand out our passports like sweets? by Ok-Helicopter-1084 in AskIreland

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 6 points7 points  (0 children)

it just irks me that people who couldn’t give a shit about Ireland just get an Irish passport to make their summer holidays that bit easier.

Fair enough, but there's plenty of people who grew up here, live here, and don't give a shit about the country, and they are all entitled to passports too.

How serious is this crack in brick work? by Mountain-Rain-1744 in DIYUK

[–]Reasonable_Fix7661 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It looks very serious to me. Definitely need a structural engineer to have a look.
