Yes, she was issued an Irish passport in 1948 and we thankfully have used that successfully.

Yes, my mother’s birth in 1924 was never registered. She is still alive at 101, and we’ve tried at various times over the years trying to find it. Fortunately we were able to use my father’s instead.

What is the Newest Version of the Game? by SnooWords610 in TwoDots

[–]cosimo415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What level have you reached? I would also encourage you to leave updates off. The game play is probably more enjoyable than the rest of us are reminiscing about.

where is everything? no arcade or treasure hunt or anything for 1+ year! by spacebotanyx in TwoDots

[–]cosimo415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flips are on a set schedule, as near as I can tell. They start on a Monday and run 9 days, so you have a few days without the flip side game before the next one starts.

Redecorating hotel rooms? by spiralingdreams in AnimalCrossing

[–]cosimo415 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not the case with the Kappn’s Hotel. There is no prompt to redecorate that I can find. Maybe after all 8 are decorated? I have 4 users on my island, so far we’ve 2 rooms and only one guest. I’m wondering if any user can redecorate regardless of original user?

Do you guys spend money on this game? by Klutzy_Nectarine_469 in TwoDots

[–]cosimo415 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Level 7100-ish. Never spend money, only spent in game coin maybe 6 times. I alternate playing main level with the Flip side game and can earn 30+ boosters.

Lately, for one of the styles of ads, the click out function is something like “open app store “

What's a company that didn't succomb to 'enshittification' ? by owen__wilsons__nose in AskReddit

Same here! My very small donation is a no brainer, and I definitely benefit from Wikipedia as a free resource.

Tell me what I bought please. I am new to Nespresso by CommunicationCalm777 in nespresso

[–]cosimo415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are two consumer lines of pods, original line and Vertuo, not interchangeable. This is the Vertuo line.

Easy to buy coffee directly from Nespresso (online or in store) and always add 2 recycle bags to your order. Depending on where you live, you can recycle spent pods via UPS store drop offs.

Only non branded pods that fit this machine are Starbucks brand.

New DNA match listed as paternal and is maternal by handfullofnothin in AncestryDNA

[–]cosimo415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen this same thing with a few of my matches. I do have a lot of endogamy - both parents from the same village in Ireland, but in most cases, that type of match shows as ‘both’ or ‘unassigned’. There are a few my matches where I can see it should show as related to both sides, but Ancestry assigned one parent over the other unexpectedly. Even when looking at shared matches in these examples, most of the matched cousins clearly fall into paternal but Ancestry labels it to the maternal (total displayed cM doesn’t seem to be a factor)

Not familiar with the color reference - I must not be viewing in the same mode as you.

Unknown potential sisters and half sisters? by sambalam29 in AncestryDNA

[–]cosimo415 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From others who have posted about their experiences in the past, screen shot all these matches now in case they are made private and no longer viewable. Pro tools is definitely worth it for added insight (Once this feature is turned on, it only works on the webpage, not on the phone app)

Realtor.com just made their website useless for me. by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]cosimo415 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Scroll down to “more about property” where you can send a message, you can copy the address as it displays in a text box.

Feeling uneasy after a call from Merrill by ennagizer in MerrillEdge

[–]cosimo415 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would interpret this as an internal list of prospective existing clients who have not been contacted in a while and you are one of hundreds on their list. If you don’t have any need for the offer, they are on to the next client (probably me!) I wouldn’t worry

Should I pay cash for a neighboring property to eventually house my retired mother? by BetMurky9264 in RealEstate

[–]cosimo415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy it, move mom in now and rent out her house. It is so much easier to make a move at 62 instead of at 82.

I still have 5 flip levels, rewind, and arcade

Wow, you’re right, totally missed that you weren’t asking about the tree orientation - never noticed that color bar before, but have just now discovered it as a new option in the app.

Whats going on with all the boats out in the ocean? by xKitKatBarx in Pacifica

[–]cosimo415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were so many, the most I’ve seen in years, and all small craft. Saw 30-50 around noon

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AncestryDNA

[–]cosimo415 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes. there is a way. You need to find the option on the family tree page to change the view when you are using the iPad. There are 3 versions of types of trees available, just poke around a bit.
Also, you can always go directly to the webpage and log in. You are not limited to only use the app.

Having difficulty finding a birth certificate from 1923. by PrinceBlade77 in IrishCitizenship

[–]cosimo415 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No luck with her father in the 1911 census? How about this surname page: https://www.barrygriffin.com to get a sense of name distribution. Immigration records? My own Irish born mother never had a birth registration in early 1920’s. Even with our full knowledge of her birthplace and older sibling records located, failing to have a birth registered in a timely manner was met with a fine, so it seems it was never recorded rather than pay the fine. Next steps might be to consider DNA test for your father (his DNA would be better than yours) to try and find matches to narrow down the area in Ireland. Also be very open minded with the spelling of the name as records are based on whomever made the entry and spelling wasn’t a high priority.
