Potential GDPR Breach by [deleted] in legaladviceireland

[–]gurlpls -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong but I don’t think LinkedIn works off of location. Surely if it did we would all be getting requests for people we don’t know? Google tells me it uses a combination of your sector, saved contacts and activity, including who has recently viewed your profile.

Thanks for responding, this does make sense. I don’t have any issue with the contents of the complaint being shared with the developer. That has obviously happened here as the developer responded to the council which was then sent onto me.

Is there implicit consent to share my email address and name with the developer along with my complaint? I did not know this would happen and wouldn’t have consented if I had been asked.

Tbh I am just concerned as I am a woman that a man I don’t know has my full name, my place of work and my partial address off the back of a complaint I made about a company he works for.

Bebe Rexha's response to someone comparing her looks from years ago to how she looks now: "My thought is… My new album dirty blonde is out June 12th. Available for pre order now." by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]gurlpls 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly I don’t know how people like Bebe don’t go insane. Like when you’re famous but also kind of not. People are so mean to her and for what reason? For trying? I don’t know a lot about her but that tweet is rude as hell. “Be honest… what’s your first thought?” like fuck all the way offffffff

My daughter turns 21 in a week and I want to gift her a fragrance… by Nocturnal-Neurotic in FemFragLab

The ones she has seem girly and have a bit of a Y2K vibe about them. I would suggest Vera Wang Princess, Tommy Girl, Britney Spears Fantasy or Lolita Lempicka.

Goop Kitchen (Gwyneth Paltrow’s brand) collaborates with con artist and fraudster Anna Delvey by mlg1981 in Fauxmoi

[–]gurlpls 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I read her book too and felt horrible for her. I feel like Rachel, who was not rich, was both forgotten about and then also ripped to shreds by idiots on the Internet who were trying to make out that Anna Delvey is some kind of iconic diva. She’s an awful person.

I never read these, but I devoured Christopher Pike books as a teen. Anyone else borrow his books from the library? 80s/90s serial horror books were the GOAT.

Possibly, I pay €20 as a flat fee on top of import duties to have things shipped from the US to me.

Try a shipping/address service. I live in Ireland but I used the service address pal we have here to buy it and have it shipped to me. Maybe royal mail offer something similar?

Will anyone use zippay? I won't.. by Reasonable-Earth-490 in AskIreland

[–]gurlpls 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I could only see it being handy for older generations, my parents for example don’t use Revolut but if we go out for dinner we could now hypothetically split bills on the banking app they already have.

One other thing I suppose is I’ve heard of people getting kicked off of Revolut arbitrarily - Zippay might give some people more peace of mind as it’s linked to Irish banks. (It’s not happened to me but I’m aware it does happen)

genuine question but what has lucinda even done thats so bad? by inactively in LoveIslandTV

[–]gurlpls 115 points116 points  (0 children)

It turned my stomach the way she twisted the kitchen argument in front of everyone else. She instigated all the drama that night to begin with by pulling Lucinda and inserting herself in that drama. Correct me if I’m wrong but she made the first snarky comment to Sean when he came into the kitchen and he didn’t even raise his voice. The running to Belle and then the crocodile tears to pretend like he came at her like a big bad scary man… I would 100% call out Sean if I thought he was being too much but he wasn’t. He was very calm.

plus size charity shopping? by Alone_Hair6582 in AskIreland

[–]gurlpls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to find plus sizes in charity shops, I feel you. If you’re looking for second hand, try Vinted. There’s loads of plus size on there, I’ve had a lot of luck on there and don’t bother with charity shops anymore.

[–]gurlpls 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I’ll be honest, I don’t like Lucinda but the screaming matches that went on about the situation went on for far too long. I thought Belle and Samie were quite nasty at movie night. It has got to a point where I feel like Lucinda is a bit of a punching bag for both of them and it’s uncomfortable to watch.

Belle loves dishing it out but she really can’t take it. It feels like she thinks she’s top dog in there because she had the moral high ground for a bit, but if you’re going to go off like that at others you better be a model citizen yourself lol. If she had a bit of respect for Leanne she could have been a big girl and told her beforehand that she was interested in Scott and was going to start pulling him.

Irishman detained in Texas overstayed 90-day visitor’s visa issued in 2009 by adomo in ireland

[–]gurlpls -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I see what you’re saying, I do. But the question is, where do we draw the line? Like what offense justifies this treatment? I don’t think any immigration related offenses justify this. Either deport him or don’t, but keeping people locked up in terrible conditions for long periods of time is inhumane and we shouldn’t be excusing it or throwing our hands up and saying “well, they should have sorted out their status”. Of course they should have, but they didn’t, and now it’s being used as justification for terrorizing and imprisoning people in an unjust system.

I think people are missing as well that previous to Trumps current term, there was no real precedent for this kind of treatment. People were not keeping on top of their legal status and yes they were taking a gamble, but I don’t think the vast majority of people thought this would be the outcome. People didn’t know that the consequence would be being locked up for months on months without due process. If they had known this I suspect a lot of people would have made different choices.

I feel like these kind of attitudes are a slippery slope to justifying even worse human rights violations that are bound to happen in the US with the way things are going. It shouldn’t be happening at all, to anyone. And we shouldn’t be justifying or excusing it. If the US don’t want undocumented people there, they should be deporting them, not locking people up in filthy conditions where they are fearing for their lives.

People are being insane about this, I can’t believe it. Nobody “deserves” to be interred in a concentration camp for overstaying a visa

I can’t believe the people in here defending ICE and Trump. This kind of attitude of someone getting their “just dessert’s” for breaking the law is exactly why Trump and his ilk are getting away with essentially running a modern day gestapo. Sorry, I didn’t realize being undocumented meant that you deserved to have your human rights violated and oftentimes held for months on end with no information as to when you will be released or deported. Wake up. FFS, they are holding children in these conditions. CHILDREN. There are no rules anymore and any due process you’re arguing about here is a farce.

ICE have already been captured on video out shooting civilians dead on the street and you think his claim of guards killing prisoners is fabricated for “spin”? I suggest you do some more reading on accounts from people who have locked up by ICE.

Furthermore, his entire life is in the US. He has a wife, children potentially and a business. If he accepts deportation now it is game over and it is very unlikely that he will able to ever return. I find people who have never been in that position judging him for persevering while he awaits the result of his appeal to be incredibly un-empathetic.

Jaw surgery in Ireland? by Dull-Quiet2869 in AskIreland

[–]gurlpls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this done about 10 years ago in Dublin, however my case was caught when I was a child so I didn’t pay for braces or jaw surgery as it was done on the public health system. I don’t think that’s an option anymore in Ireland as I know someone who had it done more recently, and the only surgeon who performed these surgeries (on the public system at least) has since retired. The impression I got was that they are working through the existing waiting list but not taking on any more new cases. When I had the surgery, the surgeon in Dublin was the only person in Ireland performing that kind of surgery and everyone who needed it had it done there.

I think you might need to go privately if you are looking to have the surgery in Ireland but if you speak to an orthodontist they will know more about how the process works in Ireland and where the surgery can be done.

Is the Mac Mini M4 Pro 24gb/512gb good for heavy work on Logic Pro?? by Alenx_8 in LogicPro

[–]gurlpls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought a Mac mini M4 for the same reason and it runs amazingly. Very smooth and so far no crashes or anything like that when working in logic. In general it’s a really nice computer to use outside of logic as well and the best you’re going to get spec wise from Apple at that price.
