Yeah you need to disable a lot of the default crap that it displays, related to Ai and crypto. But it's decent after that
Our GDP is $113,135 per capita, and yet there are over 20,000 homeless.
Average house prices are 8 times the average income, making it impossible for most Irish people to afford a mortgage.
The gap between the haves and the have-nots is now a chasm, and that's the real threat to social cohesion.
They've done it again, they've cut more rail projects. The most criminal one for me is cancelling the reopening of the Waterford-Wexford/Rosslare line. On the left is the All-island Rail Review published by the last government and on the right is the plan published today.
A desperately needed paper on the power of fossil capital to repress civil liberties around the world.
I'll be visiting this summer-thanks

As such, ABP was able to conclude that the project would not adversely affect the integrity of Killarney National Park SAC. Rather than building the homes, however, in July 2025 the developer, Portal Asset Holdings, was looking to flip the land – now with planning permission for 224 homes – for €9.5 million. Suggesting that 228 homes were “blocked” in Killarney because of bats, without mentioning the highly relevant and more recent context that the developer later received permission at the site and has since been trying to sell the land (now with planning for 224 homes), is remarkable.
John Collison was talking utter garbage and it says so much that so many politicians fell over themselves to fellate him for writing a pack of lies
MM refusing to do anything on climate shows that he puts disproportionate weight on the opinions of lobbyists for data centers, car manufacturers, dairy, etc cause support for government action on climate change actually unites people across the country..so who is he talking about?
Whose were the johnnies? The seeds were Neasa Hourigan?

a chart showing rising dc power consumption but flatlining renewable growth levels
Nice FT citing Ireland, where data centre power demand has massively outpaced clean power growth - meaning increased burning of fossil fuels
You can't rely on an assumption of infinite, exponential, unstoppable renewable energy to excuse data centre expansionism.
