Still think privacy is going to be non existent in the future, radical transparency.

Reminds me a quote in one of Isaac Asiimov's books:

"It seems to me, Golan, that the advance of civilization is nothing but an exercise in the limiting of privacy."

I love the way that the debate is always framed in the context of manufacturing, yet more than 80% of the jobs in the UK are in services.

Can you post a link to that Brexit blog you recommended a couple of times? I checked the first page of posts but couldn't see it, I don't know how long it's been since you posted a link

How am I in this?! I've just a more nuanced view, not that it didn't happen. Think Trump was selected purely as he's anti-Hilary, and Hilary had interfered in Russian elections when SecState, so this was Putin's revenge. Hence why all the actions (leaking emails) were anti-Hilary and only as a side effect pro-Trump.

So you don't think Trump is personally compromised by the FSB or GRU?

Read the first two words and was hoping for more titillation than what followed.

That's the 3rd Johnson she's lost from Cabinet/Junior roles in 6 months (Boris, Joe, now Gareth). Is there some sort of Blazing Saddles RockRidge thing going on in Westminster that so many people have Johnson as a surname?
Hopefully Gabby 'authentic frontier gibberish' Johnson is still there.

The more I think about it a very hard, no deal, brexit with 1950's style rationing and a complete wipeout of the City. Refugee bankers hiding underneath lorries trying to sneak into Ireland and France under a proper hardline punishing the stupidity of it all regieme from the EU is the only way to resolve this.

Love how this thread has been de-anglicized by Brexit. I remember rd111 suggesting we reunite with the baggars. Nearly hopped a potato off the computer .

[DeadParrot]

Absolutely every part of Brexit has been rooted in hubris and quite unbelievable levels of arrogance.

At this stage, still thinking you can just change the withdrawal agreement with the EU

It only goes out of sync near the end at 1:55. To fix it in VLC from then on just

VLC: tools > track synchronization > set to 0.100s

The general quality of the release is very good for a screener.

SPOILER

You wonder how much of the Live Aid thing was Hollywoodized for a happy-clappy ending. Then I go to youtube to watch the actual concert and it's even better and gives you goosebumps. He was some performer live.

Anyone here have kids that went to Colaiste Lurgan?

Application filled out for Mia for 3 weeks in July. Jesus talk about excited,she's buzzing. I'm presuming they just accept as I have to pay 200 deposit..

To get into the music viral singing group thingy, you have to send a video of yourself singing in irish. She is practicing this all day

Take My Hand https://g.co/kgs/KKVT7k

Currently has "take my hand" one line perfected

I said great yep you can go etc I'll drive you... No she goes ill get the bus, I have researched it and its recommended you take the bus as that's where you make your friends. Its obv the college bus stops portlaoise, Dublin etc, Jesus I really admire her independent personality.

Told her I got my first shift in 1983 when I was packed off to one in Carna before being expelled a week later. She didn't take that too well!

Hope all goes acc to plan. Be a fantastic experience for her and she's so excited I hope its fairly simple to get in..

Well she has passed the first line lol

The country girls will be running in the Abbey from the end of February until April. Would be fantastic imo. Early bird tickets from €11 for selected dates on sale until midnight tomorrow.

I just want to see it because the book was banned on its release in 1960 lol

I know this has been asked loads of times already but what's the best cheapish Android phone on the market at the moment

[Guest]

I've heard good things about Huawei P20 Pro. It's probably at the higher end of the budget.

I've mentioned it before but I've bought brand new sealed phones on those adverts stores, there's a few smaller shops in town but generally saving 20-30% on the store price.

[shrapnel]

also looking for an android prolly in the 300 - 500 range. Have a Samsung S8/S9 at the moment but figure I look east for value?

Edit - Nokia 2.1 of any use?

the google pixel 2 xl is a phenomenal piece of kit and should be in that price range now that the 3 is out.

What kind of timeframe have people found Bet365 withdrawals to go into your Revolut account? I thought it would be immediate like the normal bank account/Visa Debit, but it looks not.

[Denny Crane]

moto g6 or g6 play

Was just gonna check if that was still the best option. Have a cracked screen on my mine, was gonna check if I should repair or go for something else

[Silver-Tiger]

Are people using Revolut to hide gambling withdrawals from their bank accounts?

If you applied for a large loan / mortgage, could the lender ask to see your Revolut account if there are plenty of transactions? Seeing as it is just another bank account?

Hsbc Malta went through a year's worth of revolut transactions before rejecting me for a credit card but Malta tend to be extra strict on foreigners.

no idea to be honest, there might be better now, but difficult to go wrong with that phone at that price.

did a quick google check, and top ten budget phones below, so it's definitely still relevant

1 Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite
2 Honor 10 Lite
3 Motorola Moto E5
4 UMIDIGI One Pro
5 Moto G6 Play
6 Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1
7 Honor 9 Lite
8 Nokia 5.1
9 HTC Desire 12+
10 Honor 7X

Is there universal hate for OnePlus phones here now? I have a OnePlus 5T and find it great. I know TD sold his or was in the process of, but I can't figure out why.

I have the p20 and a friend has the p20 pro, great phones. Difference with the p20 pro is really the third camera at the back for better photos, slightly bigger/different screen (pro has 6gb ram instead of 4gb but I can't really tell any usability difference?) and it's kinda waterproof if that matters - IP67.

The cameras are really good, especially in night mode, probably the best low light photos I've seen. The zoom on a pro is insane. The regular P20 offers 80 or 90 percent of the quality as long as you don’t zoom in past 2x.

[bohsman]

I think it's just that price wise one plus are a step above the budget phones now.

I've had the OnePlus 5 since it's launch in June 17. Plan was to get OnePlus7 in June when it launches but the 5 is the Denman of phones. Just keeps going with no issues. I'd prob be stupid to spend 600 odd in June considering New models are not offering much more. Much more that i need anyway.
