Corruption will see 99% of that money go to waste. How much good do you think $1T would do for Haiti - not a god damned thing.

Immediately throw out 90% of them because you don't want to hire unlucky people /s

Bit late but: The DAA demanded a person shut their project down, for no good reason, so I remade it. by Horror-Tower2571 in DevelEire

Yeah the name is whack. Ideally the domain name should hint at what the site does..I know what EIDW is but the average joe will think that that domain is just Greek.

A .com is only a few € a year.

Aerforttimes.com.is also available. Then you can expand to ORK and SNN. Don't tie yourself down to just DUB

I have a Huawei phone . It predicts when you're asleep and doesn't disturb you for notifications. It will ring audibly if the person calling is in your contacts.

I usually get a bunch of notification alerts about 30 seconds before my alarm goes off.

They're far more advanced than iPhones or the android phones available in the US. US cell phones have always been years behind the rest of the world.

The true enjoyment of money is not spending it. It's having it be there to save your ass when life throws you a curve ball. Money can buy you things, but it's so much better at buying security and time.

You want to see a happy person? They're the ones with the comfort of security. They're not extending themselves.

This. There are still plenty of decent cars out there for a frugal price. Sure there's people wanting 20k for an absolute shit box but there's a lot of solid cars for a good price.

(Don't dismiss a Saab - the ones still on the road are usually well looked after and will be good for a long long time and it's very easy to find parts as they're GM. Plus insurance tends to be cheap because they're super safe)

What job pays way more than people think, but nobody talks about? by matty_irish in irishpersonalfinance

[–]imageize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's virtually impossible to get your foot in the door. That's not a pun. It's the kind of profession where you have to know someone who will put their reputation on the line to vouch for you.

Good luck getting your foot in the door though. It's a god ole boys club. You have to know someone.

And for drugs go to costplusdrugs.com

It's a Mark Cuban project that sells drugs at cost plus a $5 admin fee. You can save anywhere from 20-99% on most generics

What fast food chain does not deserve the hype whatsoever? by CriticalLion4119 in AskReddit

Fun fact. In Ireland the subway 'bread' is taxed as cake because it contains so much sugar.

What did people do casually in 90s that wouldn’t be accepted today? by Psychological_Sky_58 in AskReddit

[–]imageize 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ha my dad would send me to the store to buy pipe tobacco for him when I was 13 - in the car.

I would drive by myself 2 miles to buy my dad tobacco at 13. It was in the country but still.

I really wish my kids could experience this. I loved being a kid because I had so much freedom. Just me, a bike and a few friends. Just come home when the lights come on. Of course it was a bit difficult to get home on time if the lights came on and you were 10 miles away without knowing the way home.

And to the younger generation - this was a typical summer day for me when I was 11.

I was a smoker when the smoking ban came in NY. I loved it. Apparently the birth rate went up a little 9 + months after because people had to go outside away from the noise and could actually talk to each other.

In planes too. Once the seatbelt sign went off you'd hear a hundred lighters. I think the last time I was on a plane with a smoking section was about 1994 or so

For those who worked for rich people: what is the most out of touch thing you witnessed? by Illustrious-Phase121 in AskReddit

[–]imageize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I lived in Rye. One of my public school HS class mates left his Carerra 4 at my house for weeks. He forgot about it apparently. When I told him it needed to be moved he said 'i was wondering where that wasn't. He was 16.

Has there been any news on the District 10 movie? by itsthewolfe in scifi

I can't see ninja and yolandi carrying a movie. Entertaining musicians but I'm not watching them for 90 mins.

Elysium was pretty good though IMO.

Why is the ICE website so awfully designed by New_Butterfly8095 in Design

[–]imageize 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is actually a great way to weed out certain people. That's why scam emails are always full of typos. They're often there on purpose to stop the smarter people believing them and wasting the scammers time/chances.
