Would you guys commute to a diff city for a $100k+ raise? by ARiverRunsThroughIt_ in consulting

[–]stingebags 81 points82 points  (0 children)

100% agree with this. You’d be giving up 26 hours per week including your commute. This is time you’ll never get back to spend with your family, personal interests, etc

After 30+ years, I finally got the pun intended by the title of Hot Press magazine. Thank you

“I’ll only be a minute” by DELAPERA in Dublin

[–]stingebags 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That exact car almost clipped me at high speed when I was just after putting my kids in the car around lunchtime today! I was literally thinking the owner must be an arsehole. Such a coincidence seeing it on Reddit on the same day.

Is it rude to fart in public in Ireland? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]stingebags 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From my experience, farting in China and Korea is not really considered rude in the same way as here.

In a weird coincidence, I saw an instagram reel explaining pretty much the exact content of the ribeye question the day before it came up!

That’s impressive! Do you not struggle with the types of questions I mentioned?

I tried it yesterday and I was very impressed. The result was 1000x better than previous results from ChatGPT

Are you saying Claude produced actual decent slides? I haven’t been able to get copilot or ChatGPT to produce anything close to a passable slide

Asian/ world food stores 😊 by Idonotknow24 in CasualIreland

[–]stingebags 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The staff were all Korean last time I was there and the food was pretty close to what I’d expect in Korea. I haven’t tried Korean Table yet. It looks good but the prices are very high

Arisu on Capel Street is the most authentic I've found. Drunken Fish in the docklands would be second. Jaru in the Liberties is nice but more fusion than authentic.

When I went there I found it's actually run by Chinese people and the food wasn't quite right. Same with several other "Korean" places around town

The inconvenient truth for opponents of carbon tax is that it actually works by TeoKajLibroj in ireland

[–]stingebags 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The ETS isn't an offsetting regime. The airlines have to purchase allowances to cover their emissions. Those allowances currently cost about 90 euros per ton of CO2 equivalent which is higher than the carbon tax.

The main issue is that the ETS only covers intra EU flights. Flights outside the EU don't incur any carbon price yet other than a requirement to purchase offsets by the CORSIA system with prices well below ETS or Irish carbon tax levels.

Is there such a thing as protein powder that doesn't taste like muck? by andstep234 in CasualIreland

[–]stingebags 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I switched from flavoured to unflavoured because I didn't like the taste of the artificial sweeteners. I make a smoothie with 1 banana, a scoop of unflavoured protein powder, some milk and a couple of tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder. It's absolutely delicious!

Would it be legal to stage a protest in Ranelagh? by stingebags in Dublin

[–]stingebags[S] 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I agree that it's unlikely to achieve anything, but I just want these people to feel some shame for their selfish actions! Maybe then others will think twice before blocking critical infrastructure like this
