Still think that's a bit wanky.
Whether somebody us referring to the same job or a new job is usually implied by the context.
Language is beautiful but so is simplicity.

The last bit is my favourite. Ireland, where people who can't manage a 20% deposit consider themselves potential property speculators. 🙄
How does the 20% min deposit work?
Is that a hard and fast rule. Or is there an option to pay mortgage insurance below that?
That's how it works here, initially we were trying to save up for the 20% and avoid insurance. But decided now to just take the hit sooner, as it'll most likely cost less in the long run.
Actually got provisional approved for a mortgage yesterday, now have to just find a place.
My brother pitched a show to some tv channel last year and it got to the final stages, think it was axed. It wa before all this Trump going for president thing.
Anyway yeah one of the segments was hair or animal and you would have zoomed in pictures and had to guess whether it was trumps hair or an animal, it was pretty hard!
Anyone any good recommendations for podcasts? Much appreciated!!! Walk to work is an enjoyable 40 mins if I have something interesting to listen to.

I'll allow the artist formerly known as G*ll*gan-Bl*ck to field this.
I didnt call it a raise as that more internal and I didnt call it an uplift because that would make me sound like a bellend when recruiting tech people.
Instead of saying so we can work around a potential 15% uplift on your current remuneration I went with so it will be x that we will go for and I will email you on the package details but they are basically the same.
Selling pay jumps is for beginners experienced people sell career paths, company culture and not having to work with knobs who speak in business bullshit.
I have been listening to "Lore" if you are Mo haven't heard of it. Its pretty good, Author, Aaron Mahnke researched old folk tales and bring you through the background and stories of them. I think the music and atmosphere of them is excellent.
I might have actually heard of it here so maybe everyone is aware but give it a shot it not.

Any of IT people here into SEO stuff of getting a website up to top spot on Google search results? That and general help with getting a new website for a small start-up that won't have tonnes of hits would be needed. If no one here directly doing it then if you could recommend someone that'd be great. Have done as much as I can with a site we created through register365.com and then got verified on Google. Not looking to spend a fortune but need to do a little to add to our Facebook hits. Thanks.

But it said the medium-term outlook was less rosy, with a need to look beyond monetary stimulus from central banks towards a stronger mix of policies to strengthen the foundations of the global position.

Beautiful Stories From Anonymous People
WITH CHRIS GETHARD
1 phone call. 1 hour. No names. No holds barred. That’s the premise behind Beautiful Stories from Anonymous People, hosted by comedian Chris Gethard (the Chris Gethard Show, Broad City, This American Life, and one of Time Out’s “10 best comedians of 2015″). Every week, Chris opens the phone line to one anonymous caller, and he can’t hang up first, no matter what. From shocking confessions and family secrets to philosophical discussions and shameless self-promotion, anything can and will happen! Theme song by Shellshag.

This is fair. I imagine him like Wendel from the Simpsons and it makes it a little more lolworthy.

Was actually going to ask a similar question on this today... have noticed from the sample size of my work, the offices close by and people I know, of those I have seen vaping over the last couple of years the number who are not back smoking is zero. A few are still vaping part time and I still have not come across a single person who says they have quit nicotine through vaping.
Edit Good stuff
Seems like BBV is doing much better than the real world. Looking at the number of shops on the go there must be loads of people vaping, it mustn't be as visible as smoking
I have been vaping full time no cigs since August 2014, I either use 3 or 6mg depending on availability of flavours. Not interested in quitting as I have no discernible ill affects and enjoy vaping much more than I ever enjoyed smoking.
I think apart from the will power and fear factor of quitting, the main reason people don't stick to vaping is because their mod is not satisfying their habit. I had 4 different mods and all had problems with leaking and battery usage or just plain dying on me. I bought the one below in April and it's a big step up from the stuff I had before. No leaking or spitting, great flavour from the ceramic coil instead of cotton, and the coil lasts a lot longer.
Looking to get a keg or two, thinking Hop House 13 and Guinness. Anyone here be able to assist me in my quest? Asked a bar I frequent and they were not as sound as I had expected
The net income bit probably not as important as 'quality of life, especially schools' imo.
Made a half-hearted (as I wasn't really sold on it myself) effort to think about S.A. relocation when it was offered. I have lived and worked abroad in the past so I don't feel like it's something I have to do.
Funny you mention it though; was talking about this with Mrs DIII the other day and she is highly open to the notion of an American secondment for a few years. I personally would love to do Australia again. Probably the best thing about the current role would be that I could do this fairly easily. Kids would be the biggest barrier though; children hate change. Son would probably die if he had to give up his soccer club.
You would be surprised. They usually say it is harder the older the kids. Our eldest had finished her Junior Cert the day we left Donegal, My son just turned 14 on Sunday and the youngest is 6½. When we sat down at Christmas (Eve) and showed the kids Malta they were super excited. We didn't tell the little one for a bit. Although they left their friends they didn't seem to fazed by it all.
At this moment the young fella is out with a boy from school, was also out for his birthday on Sunday with 6 of them. He had only started that Monday!
So basically, kids adapt and don't be using them as an excuse
The OnePlus 3 is top class, can't recommend it highly enough. I've had the OnePlus 1+2 as well and the jump in quality is very noticeable. It was not available recently because of European demand though I think it's back up and running now.
Tony bought me it for my Birthday, it was shipped the other day, expect it to come tomorrow or Friday. Can't wait!!!

Battery is bigger on s7 edge. Quality phone must say,useless gimmick aside its top notch in every other respect
Everything that's top notch about it is on standard S7 too (aside from battery life and not quite as good lucking). Edge screen makes it more fragile and more expensive to fix if you do break it

Went to see the Girl on the train, I personally preferred the book.
There are very few films that are better than the original book (where there was one of course ). So I wouldn't rate the film on that basis.
Is it worth seeing? (I haven't read the book)
any people here buy vr headset tech yet? seems like its going to be developed more so than anyother recent concepts.
seen some samsung gear which is impressive but i dont know if would buy yet when its going to be improved on at a pretty fast past. alot more getting into the market now
im not a gamer and pre programmed experiences have a limited appeal. where i would envisage me using this more is live sporting events. im at home and as against using an illegal stream im there virtually in the crowd looking around soaking up the atmosphere be in at the ryder cup or ufc, maybe pop into a few sections of the crowd in a barcelona v real madrid match.
pornography should be good too as against having a sneaky wank on a laptop i will be feeling like im more taking part
but im sure all this vr will come at a price of subscription culture. will people who are selling tickets to a live event allow vr tech to be used without getting a decent slice? will it even work properly.

I'd be surprised if less than 3 BBV regulars haven't tried out some sort of home VR porn set up.

Should be relatively easy for UFC/WWE/etc to add VR cameras to their set up for PPV/Fightpass/WWE Equivalent

im sure its easy to set up when the tech is there but i was more thinking of using it for free and avoiding subs. as is now your not missing out on just streaming same apples.

It would simply be the case of adding a VR rig to the camera options. On a basic level it's just two fish eye lens back to back.
Or if they wanted to isolate a 180deg. Field of view a single fisheye camera could be used.
I think you are overthinking subscription vrs paid part. That won't make a difference. As soon as they add it to the subscription service, it will possible to stream it for fee. All of the current free steams are subscription content.
how was your vr porn experience mellor
Nah not me. I'd tell you if it was.
I'd have thought the first choice sexual deviant(s) would be unanimous

the shittier the bar, the more likely you are to find a barman that'll do it for cost(ish)

this is driving the market actually. However, it will change forever what the most sensitive part of your body is when you have a wank.
I think the Sony one at the moment looks the better option but ideally you are looking for a device that can interact with multiple inputs.

Don't suppose anyone bought those €10 tickets for Leinster Munster and has one spare? We've a bunch of us going and we're one short and they're all in the same section.
Went to see the Girl on the train, I personally preferred the book.
Tried the new recliner seats in Vue Liffey Valley, won't be going back to regular seating anytime soon. Worth the €4.
Was at the cinema last night and saw the trailer for The Girl on the Train, it did look good. Haven't read the book though. Looks very Hitchcock style.

Trying to think of films that are better than the book they are based on. The Godfather is the only one that comes to mind.
