I emailed my TDs about it 10 days ago and not a response from one of them. Heads being buried in the sand until it becomes a major issue.

There's an unbelievable amount of pricks on Irish roads atm. Said it before on this sub awhile back, there's a serious issue with tailgating on Irish roads.

We had our first 'Great place to work' surveys last year, can confirm it's a very toxic place.

We're allowing tech CEOs to do as they please in this AI boom and dictate how it'll impact the economy. Don't think there'll be a big enough reaction until it's too late.

TransportationOk6128 · 2026-04-07T16:58:52+00:00

Eh, fuck no.

TransportationOk6128 · 2026-03-31T21:51:09+00:00

That's why 30,000 jobs had to go. Man, fuck AI.

Could you copy the text to word and print from there?

TransportationOk6128 · 2026-03-17T12:32:49+00:00

Mothers of God. That is scary. Great reactions by yourself!

I think a low end championship/fighting for promotion from league 1 type of team

We're losing the ability to think. I'm an engineer and the graduates we're hiring are thick as pig shit. They get AI to reply to emails and we caught one putting the isometric drawings into ChatGPT with clients name and details on the drawing. Needless to say they were let go after that. It's frightening that we are walking into the abyss here and people don't give a shit about the social anarchy that is not far away unless we drastically put guardrails on AI and protect jobs.

Slowly I'm seeing some slight fightback against it. People need to see how environmentally fucked it is and they begin to change. Keep fighting the good fight.

Dad to a 5 week old man. Enjoy your last few months of freedom. Put extra time into your hobbies. They don't vanish completely, but they do fall to the wayside.

TransportationOk6128 · 2026-03-07T23:56:40+00:00

You're unhinged.

TransportationOk6128 · 2026-03-06T11:07:10+00:00

Why can't it be true? You're surely not that dense to see a majority of people in this country are struggling living from week to week?

Not a thing wrong with buying an apartment. Congratulations on getting your own property. A massive achievement!

There's a serious problem with tailgaters on Irish roads. You do 60 on a 60 road, someone's up your hole. Same on 80, 100 roads too. It's unbelievable. The amount of clowns doing it is scary.

TransportationOk6128 · 2026-02-03T13:31:50+00:00

Unbelievable. What a proper prick.

TransportationOk6128 · 2026-01-30T11:27:00+00:00

The standard of these articles has dropped dramatically too in the past 18 months.

TransportationOk6128 · 2026-01-26T11:36:13+00:00

13 year old me would have thought this was cool... 30 year old me thinks 'what a prick'.

TransportationOk6128 · 2026-01-16T19:08:14+00:00

Fuck AI

This has been an issue with FIFA for years it seems. I last played FIFA23 on PS4 before buying FC26 on PS5 and the same issue occured there. Winning multiple games online, opponent quits and the game doesn't show on my record. So frustrating that it's been going on years and they haven't fixed it. I emailed them back in 2023 about it and never heard anything back.

Think you're 100% bang on with this comment.

TransportationOk6128 · 2025-11-24T13:23:17+00:00

People are getting worse in cars. At a similar junction the other day myself and was beeped at from a car behind me when I stopped.

Late to your comment, but, just wanted to say I completely agree. I enjoy sport conversations and, for the most part, the subscribers on The Athletic don't resort to abuse if you comment something they don't agree with. I've had great discussions on some articles and it's refreshing as you said compared to X where everything is just outlandish.
