It’s an EU wide definition that exists in 27 countries not specific to Ireland at all. Your comment was unfortunately worded if that last the case as at least two other people picked up on the same remark. Apologies if that’s the case.

What’s Ireland got to do with the UK’s alcohol laws? If it’s a racist trope you’re trying to make, you might be happy to know that Ireland consumes virtually the same quantity of alcohol per capita as the UK.
The perfect tax. Raises money whilst also discouraging objectively harmful behaviour.

True but the dev’s of the 80’s understood transistors and other things i never needed to know as a millennial. As these things get abstracted, complexity keeps increasing at the top of the stack so thats what’s keeps us employed (for now)

tag the guys in r/OSINT for a challenge, must be a few open cases lol
I have a windows gaming rig. You can download windows for free (11, 12, 13 or whatever the latest one is I can’t remember) on the official website. That’s what I use. It comes with some missing features like not being able to change certain personalised settings and a weird background but it’s 99% the same and more than enough for steam and gaming.

Enjoy!

How is this enforceable?

My understanding is there are hundreds of invidious instances on hundreds of different domains. If they somehow get GitHub to take the codebase down there’s many alternative repo hosts invidious could set up on within an afternoon.

Fully agree.

The other factor, aside from greed, that caused the asset stripping madness was the worry that the socialists would retake power in Russia as they had a significant presence in parliament. I’ve heard that part of the need for speed (and lack of longterm plan) was the perception that Russia needed to see off that threat ASAP.

But came next was much worse.
