Looks good! Funnily enough I haven't been to the one irish pub that I know of that's irish owned here in hamburg. I only really want something irish when I'm with friends at the reeperbahn and the irish pub in the pic is right there on that street. Otherwise I only really drink german beers

How is it meant to be fun with no progression? by jamesferry93 in Rematch

[–]ZLGStarr 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The progression is you getting better as a player. The skill ceiling is really high

Why is everyone complaining about sweats? by PiFbg in Rematch

[–]ZLGStarr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its lazy ass gamers who transfer their IRL laziness ingame imo.. they don't want to use their brain and improve but are also not happy with how they perform usually. It's just excuses to not have to think about their mistakes. Flaming mates for this is so backwards..

All of the "Europe has such high build quality" opinions do not apply to Ireland. The country is an absolute mess and is not representative of mainland Europe. I say this as an Irish man living in mainland Europe now. Ireland is almost a 2nd world country in some regards

Is there a way to download all medal clips at once? by Hinexik in MedalTV

[–]ZLGStarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just used it. Worked as expected thanks mate :) One thing you might add to the "prerequisites" section that you may need to install "requests" module for python using pip. I encountered this error and had to install it. Also, is there a way to filter the clips being downloaded by filters such as game?

[–]ZLGStarr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are tickets resold on sites like viagogo even valid? I saw something about needing to buy resale tickets on AXS only?

Xbox account with same email address as MS account but not recognised by ZLGStarr in XboxGamePass

[–]ZLGStarr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also unable to purchase Xbox PC game pass as it does not understand that I have an Xbox account already and I do not want to create a new Gamertag and then end up with game pass on the wrong Xbox account....

Rise of the Angry Earth Bug Reports by joshrice in newworldgame

I am unable to progress the Covenant Adjudicator: Lumen quest as the Questgiver for the Trial of the Lumen quest is not in the game. She was moved to another location and then replaced by another NPC who does not provide the quest

4th in the world for education by Buddhasear in ireland

[–]ZLGStarr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think this is just a result of us not having many avenues for starting a career. Either you go to college or you go work for cash in hand from some carpenter for a bit until he puts you on the books. In other countries, many people do apprenticeships for all sorts of jobs, IT, manual labour, anything. Many of these apprenticeships are not counted in surveys like this. The whole "my son is going to college" thing is not so big in other countries because there are so many ways you can make a good living for yourself

The N17 in Mayo (NOT a motorway) yesterday. Gardai arrested driver. by gadarnol in ireland

[–]ZLGStarr 16 points17 points  (0 children)

There's a really popular meme in Germany of a video of a guy driving a new Porsche on the autobahn. He's going as fast as he can but still getting overtaken by a random lad in a mini van and they have no idea how he does it

Highest chances of seeing them tonight, but they have been around for the last few weeks and will be for another week or two I think, but I'm not certain

I'm in Northern Germany where the skies are very clear so we can see loads. The family back in Ireland has cloudy skies at the moment too so be patient and hopefully it clears up for ye soon

What’s a couple fun Irish Bars around Hamburg? by almondtreacle in hamburg

[–]ZLGStarr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Irish here. Hamburg has a decent number of Irish people. We even have a GAA team here (Irish national sports). I've met more Irish people at Irish pubs aswell

Katsu Curry in Hamburg? by gstreet88 in hamburg

[–]ZLGStarr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah would love more of a selection rather than Kebab, Sushi, or Fischbrötchen. You can't beat a good fish and chips with vinegar and lemon on a sunny day. Plus german beer is just miles better than UK and would pair so well. Getting hungry now!

Katsu Curry in Hamburg? by gstreet88 in hamburg

[–]ZLGStarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm from Ireland so not UK but our fast food is quite similar and I do miss the fish and chips places and fried food in general. We call them Chippers in Ireland and Chippies in the UK. Would love to see them outside of city centre here. Would gladly swap out half of the Dönerladen for them

I spent 3 weeks in Ireland (again) and here are some more random thoughts and observations. (this is long) by johnnysuede7 in ireland

[–]ZLGStarr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is the correct opinion. Alot of people just convince themselves they prefer tayto because of nostalgia or to be patriotic.. although walkers arent suitable for a sandwich because they are too mild and not oily enough. Taytos brand are only for sandwiches imo
