    Also thought this when reading the article, multiple times I've had entire journies turn into a nightmare because of train not coming, 2/3/more hour late trains, and yeah local transport is a joke sometimes. The worst is the state of some the stations, Bonn is like a fucking drug camp sometimes and it seems that police and transport staff won't do anything to make it safer or better

    This isn't quite normal, usually at these facilities in the case of 15, 22, and 20 especially show that the workers are not carrying out proper regular assessment and that the criteria for euthanasia for excessive suffering looks to be far to high. I only know the case of how this kind if testing is handled with mice (from my partner, and in germany) and all three of these cases would have been euthanized much earlier, not left to live on for a year or even days. As usual with Musk, he tries to cut corners and it only ends up hurting people and in this case animals unecessarily.

    These headlines infuriate me. What the fuck is the headline or story gonna do? Stop them investing? Fuck no. Push goverments to legislate against them? Fuck no. The headline should, at this point just be: gov/corps aren't going to stop investing in fossil fuels, revolution is needed now.

    But I suppose that's too long a headline

    Something I love about that post is that that this is the kind of thing a shiteating bootlicker posts, who the fuck tries to impress some leader like this?? A problem with modern society is focusing power and holding up people in power as better or perfect. Thats not very communist or socialist if you ask me, in fact it implies the existence of a ruling class still.

    I remember reading this and hoped it got posted here, I was pissing myself laughing at it like, the arseholes in those communities are absolute fucking morons.

    The point is right in front of their face and they still can't see it (so the my can't screenshot this comment for a post, the point is that those regimes were authoritarian nightmares to live in as an ordinary person). I've said it before and I'll say it again, they're not tankies they're idiots who for some reason love any auth regime and then pretend that life there is so good.

    And everytime I post some shit like this I have to say at the end, I do not like capitalism or the US (also I'm Irish and I live in Austria currently) I would much rather see a socialist state or proper commune style communism, what they admire is basically horrible shit which should be callef Maoism/Stalism/etc.

    I really hope we see push back against this by other reps, it seems they were definitely getting close to something "they" didn't want people to know. It would be a shame and blatantly transparent something is up if they were stopped now.

    Also isn't the whole point of an oversight committee to uncover things that're being hidden, especially if they're "embarrassing"???

    Yep, generally meet the same conversation tbh

    But I think that it's partially cause Irish people don't really bother thinking too much about these things or the past, even when reading about it. It's part of a simplicity to some of us that I like, most just want to get on with it, if you know what I mean. Also, with a name like GerryMandering I have to say: Tiocfaidh ár lá mo chara!

    As an Irishman I have to say that I think the famine should be under the surface. So few people are taught about the atrocities committed and how many died because of it, and just like to laugh at me if I bring it up something like "haha they should have eaten something else". Also, the troubles etc. are also at least partially due to capitalism. Fuck the imperial fucking British cunts

    Did you read the article? I will point out that we have/are working on quantum safe encryption algorithms so this is kind of unecessary doom and gloom. I actually work in this area and tbh the algorithms are ready to be implemented whenever companies want to. NIST QSC competition: https://csrc.nist.gov/projects/post-quantum-cryptography

    In fact algorithms like AES are still quantum safe as long as key sizes are increased sufficiently

    Mr Harris brushed off criticisms from the opposition on the issues facing Dublin. He said that he "shuddered to imagine" Sinn Féin holding the justice portfolio and denied criticisms that his party was more focused on tax cuts than law and order.

    This current gov really can't be gotten rid of quick enough. We all know they don't give a fuck about the average person until it's a news story, and even then they only give enough to make it look like they've done something.

    But the article says they did pay???? The point here is more about how it's one rule for "normal" people and another rule for students. Especially when:

    The Rental Tenancies (No.2) Act of 2021 says that a tenant cannot be forced to make upfront payments of more than two month’s rent. This applies to any tenancy created since 9 August 2021 but there is an opt-out of this restrction for student-specific accommodation, allowing students to pay more upfront if they want.

    As usual, it's students getting the second class citizen treatment. How in the fuck do you know anything about these people, or who their family are, or even if they are getting help to pay? Even if they are rich, an important point of this to me is that if we allow strategies like this and expensive housing to continue, one the rich will get to go to uni. I know there's no fucking way I could go if I had to pay like this, and that rent price for a room is almost unaffordable for me and all.

    Fuck landlords and fuck the Irish governments for not doing anything about this shite

    The worst part of this for me is that none of them are even communist really, they just hate NATO and love modern day Russia for some weird reason?

    Like I actually like the idea of proper commune style communism, being a fairly far left socialist (and also wanting to see the capitalist/imperial American system fall and/or replaced with something better). But none of these lot are actually communist in the slightest (as I said) they are literally just anti-west / pro-auth / pro-Russia people...
