    I absolutely hated The Main In the High Castle, heard good things about The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel & Good Omens I'm not liking the look of it.

    Was having a scroll through the catalog and it looked decent enough, will probably sign up for the 30 day trial and see what's what.

      If you know someone with a university email addy, you can get it 6 months free and 4 years half price, thread in the other place about it.

            Because Von Trumpstein didn't get voted into office.

              What VPN are you using for Netlfix? Netflix blocks any i tried, and i can never access it from anywhere else to get different shows. Would be cool if there's a workaround.

              We use Bluejeans and Zoom in work. I had a few calls this week, and my contacts wanted to use Starleaf and Uberconference for some of the calls, so there seems to be quite a few options out there that may do the job.

              On a similar not, not sure if anyone remembers Jets, or used to frequent it back in the 90s, as many of us Northsiders did.

              There's an online reunion tonight at 10pm with the old house DJ Kieran Keogh. Sure to be some cracking tunes to bring back memories!

                  Cons:
                  1.I did a 20 mile run that is wasted now
                  2.The sesh after the marathon would have been good and cheap as I would have been pissed after 2 pints
                  3. Missed out on a flat marathon. Also not trying a Spring marathon again. Trying to run at 9am in freezing January is torture
                  Preferred you when you were fat. Was the constantly being asked of you have a fat brother that plays the kick you needed to get fit or a complete change in work lifestyle fwiw thought you were an excellent dealer except of in seat 1 or 9.

                                  Mike Pence has such a calming voice, his messages though ?

                                  He has to feel conflicted towing that line.

                                        The 1st joke is feckin hilarious. Dave Allen a master storyteller. Was a link forwarded. Even so the brits did do great comedy. Mrs Brown is primetime these days.

                                          Trumps press conferences are deadly tbf. Proper car crash TV.

                                          Better than repeats of Would I Lie To You anyway.

                                            Good article on the IT looking across a few scenarios of how the rest of the year might play out.

                                                I always disliked Trump... Don't know where first I heard of him but he always seemed like a bit of a sociopath... if anything his time in office has proven me right, look at anything he has done on TV where he hasn't had final edit approval, SNL, The Roast, it is all just car crash TV


                                                O yeah he wants to bang his daughter so there is that as well!

                                                      Within the confines of the current limitations, what else would you implore the Irish government to do?

                                                      Does Spain have an average contact count of 2.5 per case? That is quite literally getting into average household size territory. It really can't go that much lower.

                                                      Currently Ireland is one of the leading testing nations in the world, doubled ICU capacity to manage what is envisaged to cope with max capacity. Step down facilities, almost 50 testing centres, proportionally far more than most other nations.

                                                      The testing limitations both in numbers of tests and time to results are ubiquitous issues throughout the globe. California for example with 8 day wait times.

                                                      There one shortcoming has been their failure to limit the spread in nursing homes but outside of that, there is very little to criticise them for.
                                                      I'd agree with all of this apart from the airport situation and our neglecting to quarantine (or at least temperature check & have a discussion with) arrivals into our country. A weakness in an otherwise sterling response to this pandemic.

Am I am being an idiot?

We got lucky that we didn't end like Italy or Spain, it was sheer chance that they were unlucky enough to get the brunt of it first; they didn't do anything differently to us. Once the government did react though they were decisive and the country as a whole (except for Lazare) seems to have made a big effort to comply with the regulations, which is a lot better than in many countries.

                                                                          Assuming no rake and a social rather than competitive reason for playing I'd pay 6, 15% of field is now standard online.

                                                                          1st €260. 2nd €175. 3rd €115.
                                                                          4th €80. 5th €55. 6th €35.

                                                                          Four prizes might look like:
                                                                          1st €385. 2nd €190. 3rd €95. 4th €50.

                                                                          Try to keep the jumps proportional eg: 2x previous prize.

                                                                          Reduce the suggestions proportionally if there is a registration fee.

Morons are now aware that this is an ever-present threat that needs continuous investment and monitoring? Smart people have been advocating this for years without the need for a national disaster to understand this issue. I have never been so sick of someone's posts on this thread as I am of yours at this stage.

Am I am being an idiot?

                                                                                We've seen quite a few horror stories over the years, where a company does fuck all research but buys based on cheap price. Samples look great but when the full 40' container arrives at their back door, it is full of absolute crap. It's not just small companies that have got caught out. Some big medical/pharma guys have got stung badly.

I find it incredible that China considering everything they know about the virus are sending out masks to the world as life-saving tools with shoddy quality.

                                                                                        In addition to owning a shipping company, he had a very large property portfolio, I'm talking around 100 million in the height of the boom.

                                                                                        This guy was an absolute cunt but he was also a genius, he just knew when things were going to take off and when things were going to go south, it was just something he was born with. He sold off the overwhelming majority of his property in 2007.

                                                                                        I'll never forget being on a business trip with him in late 2006. The weekend before, two mates of mine (two brothers) had dragged me to a property show in the Shelbourne which was all based around investing in apartments in Bulgaria. Prices were dirt cheap and ROI levels looked fantastic.

                                                                                        Between the three of us, we could have afforded it so I mentioned this to my boss and he was so serious in his response;

                                                                                        'Never, ever, ever, invest in a property that you cannot get into your car and drive to it within 2 hours - Anything outside of that and you have no control over it'

I'm actually genuinely surprised that you're surprised that we weren't as proactive as countries who've just been through a recent pandemic. SARS was hardly the top of Harris's briefing list when he took over health.

                                                                                              How much effort did you have to spend on getting people around you to take this seriously? Do you think that's the case in HK where SARS had a 17% fatality rate? Or do you think people internalised the lessons from last time? Do you think Ireland response to a pandemic in the future would be different? Why do you think east and west have been so different in response?

                                                                                              The expert opinion was this was localised, that asymptomatic carriers were unlikely spreaders, and that we'd be fine.

                                                                                                      Hi.

                                                                                                      I feel like there are two kinds of people in this world. One kind needs to laugh when things get shitty. In fact, the shittier things get, the more serious, the more dark the more terrifying, the more dangerous and dire anything is, the more important it is to laugh in The midst of it and often directly in its face.
                                                                                                      These people believe it’s no coincidence that human beings have survived despite our fragile hairless bodies, through the most difficult of times And that we are the only species, besides ladybugs, Who laugh at life.

                                                                                                      The other kind of people feel that it’s important to put aside laughter in times of difficulty and give serious And painful things the respect and the silence due to them. And to bow their heads to the tragic and to show kindness to people who are afraid and hurting by not making light of their fears or pain.

                                                                                                      I don’t think that either one of these kinds of people is right over the other. I can only say that I belong to the first group.

                                                                                                      I Love and respect many members of the latter group And I can’t stand many members Of my own.

                                                                                                      Anyway, for those who need to laugh, I hope my new show will help.
                                                                                                      For those of you that can’t laugh right now I just wish you all the peace you can grab in this shitty shitty time.

                                                                                                      Sincerely,

If in charge id expect her to have shit sorted out logistically

                                                                                                        I am actually happy trump is in power and not obama because if Obama tried to implement a lock down the red necks would be out shooting. USA civil war would erupt I'd say with their civil rights freedoms impinged on

                                                                                                        So many are going to get infected here. I can travel freely wherever I want and I am socially conscious, but you get looks from the waspy people when going into store and putting latex gloves on. There's very little trust in the government here and even less so amongst the white middle class. It's a sense of pride to be walking around going they can't tell me what to do.

                                                                                                        I started smoking again, my copd wife encourages it . Will probably regret this

                                                                                                        Took advantage of American airlines guarantees and booked trips for about 6 weeks from September on, rolling the dice with these

                                                                                                        Mike pence is a horrible person who is willing to give up everything to have those judges in supreme court, despite how he sounds he lacks the conviction to undercut trump and step up and president which is what every good vp is supposed to be according to the missus

                                                                                                          No problem changing my mind on it but the demographics of infection and their preparedness make me think they're handling it well.

                                                                                                          I'm just yet to see much that would change my mind on their transparency.

                                                                                                          Comment

Hopefully the German testing support allows us to work through backlog of 10 days and give us an increased real time pulse of where/how many infections we have.

                                                                                                            Restriction specific, not much juice left to squeeze it more other than the tougher restrictions Italy/Spain brought in?

Without opening excel, it looks like it does, for us in anyway? But thats just a visual assessment and Im open to correction (and aware of a potential optimism bias!)
