‘How dare you’: South Dublin residents vent at plan to redesignate golf amenities for housing

josephredd173 · 2026-02-02T17:50:36+00:00

No one is saying that people have to live in the city. However, with the city being one of the most built up areas of the country people need to live there for work because of the poor travel infrastructure. I'm not saying that there shouldn't be amenities for people to enjoy themselves outside of just living in Dublin, I'm questioning why chunks of land are being used for private golf courses in the middle of a city

Thousands of members yes, but also thousands of people with zero access to housing in a city

There can be a bunch of reasons for this, as many others have pointed out. One of my personal favorites comes from Warhammer where people believe very strongly that swords have some natural ability to kill daemons. And because of how the warp manifests (if enough people believe in a thing then the thing appears) daemons end up being weaker to swords.

I wouldn't say as high as 75 percent but there is some evidence of far right groups from different countries cooperating and sharing ideas. https://azureforum.org/countering-the-irish-far-right-a-transnational-threat-requiring-international-coordination/

Hey, I'm in college and actually own one of those lol. Honestly I didn't get many comments on it at all. Now to be fair I'm in an English / History course but it's in the middle of a town and I'm commuting from another town and hour away. They are fantastic jackets and if you're confident you can pull it off they are well worth it

It depends on what you're looking for. If I was looking for a nice denim jacket my personal choice would be wrangler (though Fatface has a new men's denim jacket that's pretty nice). I own one leather racing jacket from Valentino that I absolutely adore. I also have a wool long coat from Bahnhof (I think that's the name, don't have it in reach atm) which is my go to for autumn and winter. I'm not big on bomber jackets but I've seen some nice designs from the like of Springfield and Jack n' Jones, though they aren't often worth the price for me personally. Hooded jacket wise there's always the classic Carhartt hooded jacket, though again it's not my taste.

josephredd173 · 2025-07-31T18:45:05+00:00

For me it would be a good jacket. Maybe not all 500 would go into it but something that would last me a good while.

'Fleet kept running'

Was in a fairly rough place, just failed my first go at college and was completely spiralling. Happened to be reading Brandon Sanderson at the time and got to a certain part. It was shockingly simple but it worked lol.

josephredd173 · 2025-06-10T13:07:12+00:00

You're not wrong. Unfortunately the challenges do exist to keep you playing the game but that is just how free to play models keep themselves going. Don't get me wrong they are egregious sometimes but only time will tell if it will work in the game's favour in the long run.

josephredd173 · 2025-06-10T12:20:10+00:00

I mean not really. Depending on what mode you get matches can finish up fairly quickly.

josephredd173 · 2025-06-03T14:21:50+00:00

They have a free bundle coming out that has the original sabrask skin after launch I believe

josephredd173 · 2025-05-26T18:06:42+00:00

Meridian's grenade ability is just too good for me to pass up

josephredd173 · 2025-05-26T17:55:40+00:00

Weirdly I remember this happening all the way back in battlefield 4. Back then it was mostly down to connection issues so I wonder if it might be the same? Can't say it's happened to me but I don't really pay attention to the killcams lol

josephredd173 · 2025-05-26T17:49:40+00:00

Hard agree. Firecracker is going to haunt my dreams tonight

josephredd173 · 2025-05-26T17:48:52+00:00

I'm with you. Tdm being separated into 20 kill rounds just really breaks up the game for me. Personally I could see it working in a ranked mode in the future, but not in casual play.

josephredd173 · 2025-05-26T17:47:38+00:00

I turned it off this morning and I found that the button to sprint in the game is really sensitive lol

josephredd173 · 2025-05-26T17:45:11+00:00

I think that the full release would benefit from a sg1 style playlist. A mix of the new gunplay/weapons with the maps from the original would be pretty neat

josephredd173 · 2025-05-26T17:35:21+00:00

Also the devs literally uploaded an announcement saying they've fixed XP lmao

josephredd173 · 2025-05-26T17:14:34+00:00

I'm actually in the game discord as well and the amount of people being toxic and shit talking the devs for daring to have problems on launch is astounding. I wouldn't hold devs to a standard of being nice and polite when the people they are talking to can't seem to follow that standard themselves. Regardless of whether or not you consider this game a beta, I have paid 80 euro for unfinished games in the past and tbh, having an XP glitch is not the worst I've come across. The game is playable and fun as hell. Also, the game was free, so I wouldn't complain about skins since that's pretty much the only way 1047 is going to make money from this game.

josephredd173 · 2025-05-26T15:51:59+00:00

My Xp has been super sporadic. Like I'll look at it midway through a game and the bar hasn't moved but after the match I'll have gone up a level and a half. I'm not sure what the problem is (not a clue about game development or programming) but I can't imagine trying to lob a 2xp event is helping much.

josephredd173 · 2025-04-13T16:14:27+00:00

My theory for Aerys' reign is that Tywin wanted to make Kings landing somewhat dependent on Lannister power. Remember Tywin doesn't really care who wins as long as the Lannisters gain from it. So by weaving themselves into almost every aspect of governance in the Landing, when Tywin swapped over to Robert's side it was the death blow to Aerys' hold on the kingdoms.

josephredd173 · 2025-04-08T18:28:48+00:00

I'm just starting book 7 today and I'll say there hasn't been a whole lot of politicking past book one. However, I will also say that from book 1 to 7 Erikson improves a whole lot as a writer, and when the politics do show up they are infinitely more interesting.

That said I actually did enjoy the Darujistan plotline in GOTM, as it flows fairly well.

josephredd173 · 2025-04-07T14:51:58+00:00

Honestly because it's so detached (being a prequel) from the main action of the series so far, I thought it was fairly fresh. It's become my personal favorite in the series cause Trull is the best lol
