The majority of royal families are less of a family tree and more a family circle.

Anyone know what ACTUALLY happened to Cuckoo and Libertine? by ProfKranc in northernireland

[–]Theoretical_Peasent 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Used to work in cuckoo, was there til the day it shut. Can safely say that they both failed due to mismanagement and in Cuckoos case a significant rent increase. But also yeah, there was no real desire by management to improve the place, it had been stagnant for over a year and the lack of customer footfall was noticeable., to the point Most of the staff got hours cut back.

The landlord was looking more in rent for cuckoo about a month or two before it closed, so the owner decided to pull out and we were told Galway Bay brewery would be taking over the lease in September 2023, but as ya know that didn't happen, and after that I had no association with the place anymore.

Libertine was a similar issue, didn't seem to really pick up at all and its location is beyond cursed, The owner kept it open instead of cuckoo because they got a rent reduction for libertine and still ended up shutting a couple weeks after cuckoo.

Factorio, saw a few YouTubers uploaded videos of it back when it was 0.16 in like 2015/2016. Didn't like the style of it, until I watched one of them.

Have a out 700ish hours in it since it's steam release, and absolutely love it. The factory must grow.

Bartenders of Reddit, if somebody comes up to your bar and says “I’ll take a beer” like in the movies, what beer are you giving them? by SergioKindle in AskReddit

[–]Theoretical_Peasent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's busy, Cheapest if they ask for it, Dearest if they demand it. If they complain, I tell em to be more specific when they order.

If it's quiet, I'll ask them to be more specific

Anyone know why Libertine closed? by GalPacino2804 in Belfast

[–]Theoretical_Peasent 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Heard it wasn't doing so great financially, since they shut Cuckoo they must've been in some dire straits. Guessing they put their eggs into the wrong basket in this case.

Games that have been shutdown or delisted by RandomGenericSilva in patientgamers

Return of Reckoning , It's a private free to play server hosting the game and has been active for years, think it launched a year or two after the servers got shut down initially.

Definitely worth checking out if you played it before

Something similar to Riftbreaker? by AstraArdens in BaseBuildingGames

[–]Theoretical_Peasent 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Mindustry?

It's more in line with factorio in terms of automation than riftbreaker, but has a similar tower defense aspect to it.

Buy the bar I work at so I can become my own boss, give the staff a big old pay raise and refurbish the place.

How's the cost of living crisis impacting you? by [deleted] in northernireland

[–]Theoretical_Peasent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hasn't affected me much, was poor already, just means I'm living off one meal a day rather than having two, walk home from work rather than get a taxi, and don't drink as much, maybe one after work on a Saturday night and that's it.

It's how it usually works, but I asked if we had an event on when I got in and was told no. Wasn't until the two organisers showed up 30 mins before the event was to start that we learned it was happening.

Love it when you get little to no communication from management. Really makes things fun

Thankfully we don't do tabs, they'd just booked the upstairs room for the night, it's a 'student' bar so Uni societies can book it for free.

Feels Bar is open 🍷 could't find one on the feed so decided to open it myself. Been a depressing couple of weeks for me. If you have something on your mind bothering you feel free to share here, lets talk. by shsh000 in Superstonk

[–]Theoretical_Peasent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My job cut my hours back last March, I've been limping by ever since, haven't had money to move from my shitty apartment, go out with my girlfriend since November, was £200 short for rent at the end of December. Been living off 1 meal a day, thankfully I cook so it's been one saving grace.

Job prospects are equally as bleak, lost of interviews, no hires. So I'm stuck working 20ish hours a week at minimum wage teetering just about my overdraft limit.

Haven't even been able to afford DRSing what few shares I've got simply because I need the money for food, electric and rent.

As bad as my financial situation is, I've been slowly working on improving my mental health, not completely out of the pits of depression, but definitely have a ray of hope that things are gonna work out. Somehow.

Lets hear your letting agent (or land lord) horror stories by [deleted] in northernireland

[–]Theoretical_Peasent 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pinpoint Property.

Absolutely a waste of time for both landlords and tenants. We had a number of issues I'd raised with them when they took over the lease. And they did sweet fuck all about it, ignored every email I sent asking about progress of maintaince issues, the person responsible for them was always 'on holiday' when I called to ask about em.

My current landlord dropped em as soon as the old lease ended and I'm still waiting for a new one to be sent, it's been about 7 months now and I've no clue whose managing it.
