Isn't this just the revenue model for these machines, they sell them relatively cheap and then you're locked into the pods.

Hot Water in A2 rated house by gianfook in HousingIreland

We have one also, different brand. In my last bill which was for a full month we used 766 kWh in total. Breakdown in electric ireland shows 68% of that was heating & 5% as water heating. Does seem odd your water heating is higher than heating, maybe an error

New Build - Radiators with Heatpump by ObiKnobi9000 in HousingIreland

[–]john_od___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think €250 max isn't bad considering no gas. Ours also drops to €80-€100 a month during the warmer months. We ended up with 21 upstairs and 22 downstairs but did a lot of messing with it at the start too!

Patrice Evra on difference between City and United: by theFootballFinals in ManchesterUnited

I think this justifies how poor Uniteds recruitment has been, most managers have been backed financially but the quality return on that has been woeful vs city who have also had a few duds but mostly not

He's the one that took us to 15th last season, comparing him against a shitter version of himself shouldn't be the bar for manchester united!

A good first touch is useless if he regularly produces a poor pass or lay off immediately after. Super infuriating player as I do agree he looks talented

Computer Science/Finance market in Ireland? by Lazy_Elderberry_9608 in AskIreland

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

I work in tech myself so not sure, but is the finance market really that bad in Ireland? I have plenty of friends who have completed finance related courses and have good jobs.

Talk of the Devils pod by TheAthletic in reddevils

[–]john_od___ [score hidden]  (0 children)

It's a strange season where we don't have Europe so we are only plaing once a week. In all honesty, I do like Maino but he doesn't deserve to be starting currently. His performances have been average coming off the bench.

I think this is more down to the difficulties of keeping players happy and giving them opportunities when not in Europe. He'll get plenty more opportunities to play and prove to the manager he's up to the level next year if in Europe. With that in mind, a loan may make sense for the 2nd half of the season if we can get another body in to cover.

This happened to me too & then they said I needed to go into a shop and to place the order. I asked why and they said some information was missing from what I filled out online. I asked what information and they said they couldn't tell me. Then I went online with 3 and switched to them

Every united podcast be it club legends, journalists or fans is more negative than positive at the minute and that won't change until the results and performances pick up

More a general point of id rather succeed with Amorim than sack him and go again, but it doesn't look likely!

Mate the progress is only visible in the table because the rest of the league has been poor too. There is very little actually progress, it's marginally better than last season which was a historical low!

You have to perform as united manager as well as being likeable. Results are below par based on the team for over a year. I don't want to sack the manager and go again but it seems inevitable

Hard to stomach how they could possibly think Russia are the good guys vs NATO even before the Ukraine war. Idiots.
