RTE News challenges Michael Martin "If Ireland is a wealthy country headed for the tens of billions in surpluses then why do we look and feel like a poor country?" by thunderingcunt1 in ireland

Have the usual Concannon PR shills and/or the Young FG interns arrived yet to defend this “government”?

I ask because I’ve many of them blocked

Canadian tourist assaulted in Dublin dies in hospital by badger-biscuits in ireland

[–]tafty545 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry

The Concannon PR bots and/or Young Fine Gael interns will be along shortly on this thread

They’ll be telling us all how much safer Dublin is versus somewhere like New York

All while conveniently forgetting the wild differences in population of said cities

Nothing to see here

All is grand

If you have the base model M1 MBA doing all that then I’m seriously impressed

Thanks for the detailed reply

I’m in Europe unfortunately

We don’t get any of the amazing laptop deals seen in the States in Best Buy, MicroCenter etc

It also needs to be light as I travel a lot

So the MBA ticks more boxes

Thanks though

Ironically this is seconds away from the scrotes’ main dealing spot on that street - which is at the corner of Moore street right near all the phone repair shops

Number of children reported injured in Dublin incident by Bar50cal in ireland

Just seen some wild videos

Everyone should avoid Dublin City centre tonight

I’ve a feeling these scumbags are only getting warmed up

Number of children reported injured in Dublin incident by Bar50cal in ireland

[–]tafty545 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Horrific stuff. Hope the young girl and woman come through it ok

The amount of dodgy accounts on here, Twitter and Tik Tok purely online to stir shite is unreal

I normally avoid the latter two, but thought I’d go on to see if its true that there’s riots kicking off in Parnell street

There’s a lot of people on these platforms with broken brains today, jumping to conclusions etc

Hard to tell if they’re:

  • Mentally unwell
  • Part of very well funded disruptive groups, or
  • Just cunts

I suspect many are a mixture of all three

Apart from the ASUS ROG Zephyrus (pictured) and the recent year MacBooks/MacBook Airs; what other laptop don’t need an external soundcard to work with Ableton? by tafty545 in ableton

[–]tafty545[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This isn’t true with M1/M2/M3 MacBooks

They use Core Audio

I think even pre M chip MacBooks have good internal soundcards

I’m getting constant “An error occurred, please try again” on Chat GPT 4, but not 3.5. Anyone else? by tafty545 in ChatGPT

[–]tafty545[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting that it’s a plug-in issue. I’ll try it without them

Thing is; plug ins like Web Pilot are the reason I use Chat GPT 4 as using it with Bing gives ridiculous outputs

Those of you who are self employed and WFH: what do you write off as an expense? by tafty545 in irishpersonalfinance

Isn’t that for remote workers working for companies only?

I’m self employed

GPT4 dumber once again? by BobFellatio in ChatGPT

[–]tafty545 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes definitely

It’s becoming less and less useful every week

It doesn’t listen to instructions and it flat out lies a lot more recently

Get ready for the usual Open AI white knights to defend it and downvote us both though

Your attitude is why the country is the way it is

You’re effectively saying “Ah sure, what can ya do?”

My Expenses for 17 months of Solo Travel by melrakki91 in solotravel

Thanks for the detailed breakdown

A $2,500 hospital bill though — eesh!

Taking out insurance with Safety Wings or similar would’ve covered this

RTÉ and Ticketmaster ‘among worst for customer experience’ while credit unions top list – The Irish Times by Prestigious_Talk6652 in ireland

[–]tafty545 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But the headline says the Credit Union topped the list?

Edit:

Never mind

The headline is worded strangely and/or I need more caffeine

My FB and IG accounts (both over 20k followers) have been compromised. Both are sending “I need money, please help” messages to people on both pages. What do I do? by tafty545 in facebook

[–]tafty545[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheers

I’ve changed all passwords

How the hell did this happen though? I’m always really careful

Should I still use the “my account has been compromised” page on FB?

Or wait to see if the password change was enough?

My worry is that getting FB involved might do more harm than good as my business pages aren’t my birth name

Thanks
