So... That Turning Point/UVF documentary with all the people admitting to actual crimes is going nowhere except the memory hole then, huh? Damn, you'd think that'd be at least one or two real journalists in the country capable of feeling shame about what that says about the industry.

Hi @micheal-martin.bsky.social, this is illegal. Can you ask your Minister for Justice to send his guys down to arrest the pilots and give asylum to the renderees? Thanks.

Renewing my occasional appeal for information on video of Zig and Zag saying “Bosco is a bollix” on live TV. If you have it, please get in touch #SpéirGorm

Hahahahahaha gas. I want them to keep going with this. how much water does Sally Rooney drink? How much electricity does her fridge use? How much disinformation does she spread and how many data privacy laws does she breach?

"So Sally Rooney has published six and a half million books - that's quite a lot of books, well done - but that's about 15,000 tonnes of emissions." Ireland's data centre industry boss has lashed out at writer Sally Rooney for her opposition to the sector www.thejournal.ie/sally-rooney...

I think man is fundamentally made of two forces: desire and regret. Each can exist independently, or feed the other, but should he cease feeling either or both, then he is man no more—simply beast or stone. So yeah *squinting* Denise, I think the mozzarella sticks sound good

While RT is back in the news I just want to vent a grievance. As the Toy Show -one broadcast, one day a year - grew bigger and more cinematic each year under his stewardship, the production of original children’s programming by RTÉ (where RT got his breaks) shrunk down to nothing.

Ryan Tubridy is a smug and privileged asshole. He’s the essence of entitlement. He was caught with his greedy hands in till and was cancelled. He needs to stay cancelled. These assholes keep trying to reinvent themselves. Needs to be stamped on. Hard.

In one afternoon FF/FG ministers came down like a tonne of bricks on a rape crisis centre when they spent weeks hiding while Musk's Nazi website they use was producing CSAM. Like many of you, I really really hate these bastards.

Even if over 323,000 Irish households weren't in arrears with their electricity bills (they are), this would be bonkers.

RTÉ News@news.rte.ie

Enough renewable electricity to power almost half a million Irish homes was lost during the first nine months of this year because of limitations on the electricity system.

This post is a "never not re-post" for me. It's an amazing story about making decisions for the right reason, defying the odds and making the world a better place for being in it.

This one's maybe a little on the ling side, but trust me, it's worth it. I've cried reading it multiple times. (1/3)

I'm certainly not a "back in my day, movies were better" person, but I do miss when movie dialogue felt like it was written as opposed to how a lot of movies feel now which is more akin to guided improv.

I liked Angelone’s last special and I really don’t understand how somebody could make that special and then go and make a “joke” like this. There’s a line between being edgy and just being shitty and cruel and he flew miles over that line

kevin@beirne.bsky.social

Hugely disgusted and disappointed with Vittorio Angelone. Not only did he make a cruel and unfunny rape joke about someone actively in the middle of a rape trial, he was so proud of it that he posted it to his own Instagram page

Words are important. The World hasn't "lost the opportunity" successive corporations and ultra-rich oligarchs empowered by lobbied govts have fucked it for the World. I'm part of the world. I didn't do fuck all. I didn't take multiple flights a year. I recycled. I didn't pump toxins into the air.

RTÉ News@news.rte.ie

The world has lost the opportunity to prevent global warming significantly exceeding the critical threshold of 1.5C above pre-industrial levels, according to a major new UN report.

This shit is so cool. They took away being able to afford computers for this shit.

Business Insider confirms it: Amazon has warehouses of GPUs that can’t be installed, and is buying them so far in advance that a supply chain team said they “didn’t have a clear forecasted path” to installing them. www.businessinsider.com/amazon-220-b...

Is it because the smart meters supplied by ESB have the software disabled such that you cannot use the P1 port? It means a lot of "smart" tech can't be smart. bsky.app/profile/dunc...

Duncan Jones (aka Merrion) (he/him)@duncanjonesmerrion.bsky.social

Ah - it appears that the ESB smart meters have the P1 port but the software is disabled so not all the balcony solar kits will work here even when they are licensed.... *sigh*. episensor.com/exploring-p1...

"This policy change is aiming to get local authorities to take a more hands-on approach to building social housing." Do local authorities have something else in place already, or are the gov pulling the rug as a stick to beat local authorities & people on their waiting lists with? #IrishPol
