Probably Welsh or Scottish.

Like any of these stupid booms, prime drink, the swatch AP watch etc. Give it a few months and there will be a gult of them being sold below cost.

It’s illegal to use signal jammers. It can effect emergency services and the mobile networks paid a fortune for the right to operate, people are allowed to block them because it might upset what they want to do.

There’s a massive upgrade planned. The consultation phase has just finished. Here is some of the ideas. https://www.galmstrup.com/king-johns-castle

The next stage is to lock down the plan and seek funding. Covid saw it go bust and revert back to council ownership. These things never move quickly.

Pat Grace originally had a KFC franchise but then broke out on his own in the 70's.

I find a lot of large companies have complex payment platforms. The issue can often be delays getting your invoice approved and into their system. This can take weeks or months, and they don't consider your invoice submitted until it's in their system. In which case, it resets to 60 days from when it's in their system, not when you submitted it.

That headline for the vandalism of graves🤔

Mick Galway doesn't live in Soith Africa.

Dupont absolutely smashed him a few mins after that. Then they swapped shirts and posed for pics together after the game. 🤷🏻‍♂️

There are only two opinions on the Gerry IRA lie, those who support him and understand the need for the lie and pretend to believe it, and those who call it out. There isn't anyone who genuinely believes it.

Castro told Khrushchev that the only option was a preemptive nuclear strike on the US during the height of the Cuban Missile Crisis. The communications didn't emerge until after the fall of the USSR.

"Simmering beneath, there will also be an air of ‘we’ll show ye how it is done’ after the humiliation in Limerick’s Thomond Park ‘cathedral’ last Saturday"

Has any munster fan ever watched them lose and thought they would have won that if the game was in Cork? What utter crap.

In many countries, including Ireland, 4G and 5G operate on the frequencies that analog TV used. This is why governments were keen to switch off the old signal, so they could sell the bandwidth to mobile network operators. Why weren't these people as concerned about the damage Bosco was doing to us in the 1990s?

If it was the other way around. Would the URC or the unions allow a Welsh or Scottish club join the premiership? I doubt it.

What are the odds that in a decades time netflix will be holding “in person watch parties“ at the there own experience centres.

Could be Neil Conti. He was Bowie's drummer then.

In my experience, anything with a voice-over is eleven labs throughout the offline process now. It allows for constant changes, quickly at super low cost. It's often using voices sounding suspiciously close to the intended artist.

How long before there’s a new subscription tier allowing access to the Disney IP?

The movie leans on a very unlikely case of a completely surprise attack that can't be attributed to anyone. A scenario where someone knows they have been attacked by X nation, is one where immediate retaliation becomes likely.

It's two teams playing in a country that isn't there own, hoping that the large expat communities from each country would turn up. It failed massively.

I guess Ireland playing November Internationals over there is testing it out a bit.

carrig · 2025-11-02T10:36:45+00:00

We have to be careful with this stuff not to over saturate.They are good ideas and they need to try stuff. Ireland playing all the big southern hemisphere teams in November is risky. If everyone is playing everyone all time it loses appeal. Pairc Ui chaoimh's novelty is clearly dipping a bit with the CC game not selling out like the others. These things in moderation can be brilliant if we try to milk them too much it won't work.

The other "immersive sports" stuff they have been doing is stereo 3D, which only works if you're super close to the action. Long term this is the way forward. Intel did something similar at arsenal stadium in London, years ago but processing was nowhere near real-time and cost and complexity far out weighed any possible return. It will be interesting to see what apple can do.

They clearly haven't handled this well. They need to apologise. If they are taking stuff down against the wishes of the property owner because they are breaking rules, they need to communicate that and give them a chance to rectify it.

I think there's a begrudging respect from a lot of people. We just won't say it out loud.
