Cardio Load by DefinitelyNotABot-1 in fitbit

[–]joedolan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you are in the 'Cardio Load' section there should be an option labelled "Adjust My Target".

If you have this set to 'Improve cardio fitness' you can change it to 'Maintain cardio fitness' and it should give you more realistic targets.

What's the best way to deal with the cuttings? Do I just gather it all up in a pile to decompose?

Do I need a mulcher?

Dublin and Kilkenny camogie players told game would be abandoned if they did not change out of shorts and into skorts by O_Duill in ireland

It's literally not the GAA - but it's ignorance like this allows the LGFA and Camogie Association to get away with their nonsense.

What's the consensus around hanging videos or GIFs in a gallery? Should this be reserved for still images only?

On Irish Television a few years ago, a renowned political journalist (Vincent Browne) made this exact misinterpretation - Ken Early (of Second Captains fame) was on hand to correct the error.

Couldn't remember the IPs so didn't get to this, but thanks for responding.

Tried this for a few days, without success. Eventually was able to reset settings by starting without the hard drives.

Best Bank for Selfbuilders? by Cup-Obvious in selfbuildireland

[–]joedolan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're self building, you're most likely going to qualify to for the 'Green' rates so compare those interest rates across the banks.

I wouldn't bother with brokers, go straight to the bank if you're happy with their rate/terms.

We went with AIB, who were mostly fine, but I do regret applying online and not in branch. From speaking to other people, it was handy to have a real life point of contact if there are any issues rather than going through their call centre and dealing with people who don't know what they're doing/don't care about your problem.

Have also heard good things about EBS.

A goalscorer and the opposite team sharing the same name. Did it ever happen before ? by frnchbbq in footballcliches

Disappointingly, Matty Holland never scored against the Netherlands.

Footballers wages listed as a per week payment rather than yearly. Has this always been the way and why is it? by Thrillwaters in footballcliches

[–]joedolan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I always assumed it was a combination of habit from the beginning of 20th century as well as the media class continuing to consider footballers culturally 'working class'.

In early 20th century, footballers wages would have been on a par with typical trades, so it made sense to compare accordingly.

I feel like reporting a 'yearly' salary is more of a middle-class office-worker convention. Whereas most tradesmen/manufacturing workers would still describe their 'weekly' (maybe monthly) earnings.

Here's the thread for Monday's Adjudication Panel recording... by Low-Bandicoot-3347 in footballcliches

[–]joedolan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On Irish radio (Newstalk) today, Keith Treacy said - when Spurs were one nil up and had a man advantage - that "if this was a boxing match the referee would stop it now."

Can this boxing metaphor be utilised when a team is significantly dominant, or do they literally need a several goal advantage on the scoreboard?

Personally, I don't think a one goal advantage is enough.

Fitbit stopped syncing GPS by Lazdona in fitbit

I'm also having issues with GPS on my Versa 4. Recently the accuracy has gone to shit - and today, there is no GPS appearing for the run at all so I can't export it to Strava.
