@Zuut wasn't on for a few days due to the heartbreakingly complex nature of furnishing an empty apartment in France so might have missed it - did you get the contract sorted?

Lord no. Spent the week fighting to even get a pretend contract so I could apply for a grant.
The scheme dictates that you need a contract that covers the duration of the grant, so I've been trying to get them to issue me with a zero-hour contract, or one that is contingent on external funding just to get around the red tape but I think it's going to be a case of 'there's no procedure in place for that'. Have an application in with Enterprise Ireland for a 2 year grant and if that doesn't come up then it's skid row on 1st Jan as things currently stand.

Fuck the rugby. History in the making at Trent Bridge. Atmosphere sounds amazing despite the fact that the crowd will likely be home for lunch.

Jaysus that sucks. As soon as you eventually get a CID, if that works out, you should just never do a bit of work ever again, because fckem.

Yea the focus will definitely shift from 'what things can I do to look good' to 'what do I want to do'.
I would be so strange to come in and be able to take things slowly, fix old equipment, do the things that have been put on the long finger forever, instead of 'WRITE ALL THE PAPERS!'

Anybody on some new sports streaming sites with my cards been skimmed that means a lot of my accounts have bounced including streamtvbox so possibly looking at a replacement, it's a good site but works out about €15 a month and pretty sure Megatron uses one that was just as good for like €5 but can't ask him as he's off on his honeymoon.

Speaking of such things, idly looking at this without really knowing anything about it.

Any thoughts or does anyone on here use it?
a) is it a scam (or even a scamola)?
b) my BB is good, 120 mbps but streaming to my tv on something like cricfree (watching the cricket on this right now) is definitely nowhere near the quality of actual digital tv. Would this be a viable replacement for UPC?
c) is it easy to use or do you need geek skillz?

Gamble gamble? HD streams from the site I've used are of very good quality so it might be down to the site & probably just SD instead, do have problems sometimes with buffering but that's more down to their side rather than my WiFi and I'd guess it's the same for you. What is it you want this box to do?

TSB being rather annoying, sent out a new visa card and deactivated my old one. Says my pin will be the same. Try my old pin...card gets blocked. Ring them and they say they will send a pin reminder for the pin i know and doesnt work. jaysus christ.

Sure dice is knocking round slats with a big wad of cash in his pocket. He might have moved on elsewhere.

The fintech startup where my wife is one of two employees (and then the entrepreneur on top of that), just got €500k seed funding. Not bad. Think she needs to crystalise that promise of shares even though eventual chance of company success is probably ~10% max. Startup scene in Dublin seems highly vibrant at the moment with all these startup hubs like the NDRC creating a class ecosystem.

Yes, just Yes. Where/Whom did she approach for seedfunding? How did you rate the pos success of 10%? This is amazing..

With any bank I've been with (UB + BOI) you never have to change pin when you get a new card.

Couple of friends and my mother have had this happen to them with PTSB

[eamonhonda]

Normally it's lost/stolen = new pin, replacement card = same pin.

[6starpool]

Normally it's lost/stolen = new pin, replacement card = same pin.

That's logical. Doesn't seem to work that way with PTSB though.

a) Not a scam but android boxes can be got cheaper and that's all it is really.
b) & c) Not without some hassle if you are non-geeky.

Try out Kodi on your computer or tablet first because this is one of the best apps you could have for your Android box:

Then try out this for it:
