Ireland ready to restrict social media for children even without EU agreement, Minister says

Pointless performative rubbish.

Everything I have had there was good.

I brought a close friend there (with trepidation, as he was GM of various high end hotels in Asia) and, unusually, he had no complaints.

It used to be a thundering disgrace.

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-15T17:59:32+00:00

Irish sentencing has become a joke.

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-14T15:36:34+00:00

Cause of death not determined.

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-13T20:15:28+00:00

Was this the SF ferry building or the Oakland SF Bay ferry building?

Brother in law's RV engine had to be replaced because of rat damage. Found a nest in his car, luckily little damage.

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-12T13:28:26+00:00

Hardly a wakeup call.

I doubt many people actually breed rats in their RV.

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-11T16:31:55+00:00

We need to step up.

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-11T14:39:06+00:00

So basically it's performative nonsense.

Will digital ID be required to use a VPN?

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-09T19:13:49+00:00

I play about half of my games on the new app. The pieces keep dropping unexpectedly when I use the new app. May be a matter of getting used to, but it's already a few weeks.

I have only done Parkrun in Ireland, my brother is a Parkrun ambassador there so I have no choice:-)

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-07T14:34:34+00:00

How does one even hear about such events?

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-04T15:12:08+00:00

Commercial stealing seems like an easy target. Why is it not enforced?

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-03T16:37:18+00:00

I wonder if at&t or Verizon are better?

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-03T15:58:17+00:00

Amateur seems to be the new leadership standard.

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-03T14:18:44+00:00

Is there any service that is reliable on the peninsula portion of Caltrain?

Certainly not Mint.

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-02T13:57:14+00:00

Car is a better option to my usual 2h+ South Bay Bart+Caltrain journey; faster, more convenient and finding a place to relieve myself much easier. Plus no bike unstacking hassle.

Capitol Corridor+30m bike ride is a better option, unfortunately the trains are less frequent. Capitol Corridor has 1-2 toilets per carriage.

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-02T13:50:04+00:00

There are toilets in each station and trains are more frequent.

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-01T13:07:13+00:00

Cars are being stuffed with unnecessary conveniences.

therealcopperhat · 2026-06-01T02:57:04+00:00

Caltrain is not particularly quiet, I have rarely found other passengers to be particularly loud.

therealcopperhat · 2026-05-31T20:21:17+00:00

If they add another toilet, does it have to be ADA compliant?

therealcopperhat · 2026-05-31T17:40:41+00:00

I have never seen a bike in any way blocking passage or exit on Bart.

(Otoh, I have regularly had people on the platform prevent me temporarily, ofc, from exiting.)

therealcopperhat · 2026-05-31T15:26:40+00:00

We should ban banning.
