I just checked.

This piece of art is still in place:


I give the same answer every single time, yet they insist on continuing to ask it periodically.


The Dublin County Choir will be performing Carmina Burana on the 10th March in the National Concert Hall. Just bought my tickets, and I'm really looking forward to it.

I did up my own leaflet at the last general election. Each candidate I met, I gave it to them. I plan to prepare one for each of the locals and the Euros this year.


Hmm. I find it interesting that for the whopping price of €106.99 Springer still doesn't allow me to own the Softcover Book forever.


How yer man thinks January 20th, 2025 will go down.


We have authors and audiences. We have creators and we have fans. But, when you hear people talk about the "creative industries" they are referring to the lawyers, accountants and administrators who want to control everything we create and enjoy for their own profit, giving us this type of bullshit.

No wonder so-called piracy is rife.


... but this made me chuckle.

Is there no count for twitter because of restricted access to the API? or is it because no one is sharing this story on that service?

@Col


They're not alone.


Hi @Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox, is there a way I can combine AND and OR criteria here? If I want to filter, for example, e-mails that are sent to address X and come from any of addresses A or B or C, how would I specify that in this dialog? Currently I would use 3 different rules, which is rather cumbersome.

Thanks.


Looking good (20:51 Dublin time.)


"Landlord exodus". WTF does that mean?

"Should I stay or should I go? Landlord exodus set to continue as supports fail to materialise"


Same old question, same answer every single time.


I do not agree that this is an appropriate use of the 451 Unavailable For Legal Reasons HTTP response status code used by The Gettysburg Times.


Sometimes I wonder if we chop the ends off mangetout for no reason other than irony.


Well done, caption writer. I see what you're doing!

Updated to include alt-text.


The linked-to article doesn't contain the tweet or its text, because doing so would cast both organisations further into poor light, I guess, so here it is.


It comes through for me perfectly.


Fuck you ticket master. Get your shit together!

Dublin, 1673. Bernard de Gomme. A portion of the original map.


Sssh. Don't tell Gracie. She mightn't like to hear there's competition.


That reminds me of my former pinned tweet.


I was inspired one day a few years ago, and came up with the alien general Klora Eily


I have recently become fascinated by old cinemas in Dublin that have been converted to other uses. I know of one in each of Cabra, Fairview and Killester, at least.

This week I noticed the Killester building has been knocked down. I'm disgusted. It wasn't the prettiest specimen, but it's history, and it's gone.


Hi @Nextcloud 📱☁️💻, I've just upgraded my nextcloud to version 26, something I've been doing since I set it up with version 12, and this is the first time I've seen this ludicrous corporatised message. The version of Brave I am using is built on Chrome 111. How can it not be supported? unless you guys have decided to implement features that will work *only* on those listed browsers. Are we kicking off the browser wars of the late 90s all over again?

How can I suppress this message?


You'd swear the dog is hungover or something.


Does that mean we're likely to see some of this in Microsoft Teams now?


I got inspired by a conversation I had on here last week and decided to start making my #PorridgeBread again. Yum.


Hi @Blacknight, attempting to create my new account, and I think there's a bug.


A harrowing story of the consequences of trying to stand up to the permanent government to vindicate your rights, from the guys over at the #TortoiseShack: https://media.blubrry.com/echochamberpodcast/content.blubrry.com/echochamberpodcast/Echo_Pod_Ep_940a.mp3


Done! Looking forward to the new relationship!


Thanks!

It has been corrected _since_, though.
