  1. Lovely suit though tbf.
  2. The talent mismatch between Robbie Williams and the woman he's duetting with here is embarrassing.
  3. There are too many problems with his statement to know where to start with it tbf.
  4. Still arguing with this cunt? Go shove some more cake down your aorta.
  5. Eamonn Dunphy has just said on RTE that Germany hosted the World Cup while they were a repulsive regime... Maybe I misheard but I assume he meant the Olympics. @Ant @ewerk
  6. I suddenly find myself warming to Gene.
  7. Aye, I loved the specificity of that too. Are they on commision?
  8. Even for a wok that's an impressive size.
  9. This is getting out of hand tbf. @Ant please just put all DK's posts in spoiler tags by default.
  10. I don't understand wanting rid of Merino just yet. Hit the ground running and looked like he had bags of potential before the injury; well capable of deputising for the tinker.

    GDPR

    Do you think it'll have any impact (positive or negative) assuming the vast majority people just click "accept" on whatever the site asks them to? I suppose I'm asking if the back-end stuff is of much benefit on its own regardless of nothing much changing on the front-end.

    If it worked it'd be well worth it (for the users) but I suspect feck all will happen. I'm not involved on the business side at all so I'd love to hear some details of the stuff that's had to change.

    A..erm...friend of mine gets that privacy popup thing whenever in incognito mode on Google when searching for...gifts for the wife.
  14. I like those odds. Good luck with it @strawb and @Howmanheyman's Ma!

    GDPR

    Has anyone changed their behaviour/bothered with reading through/acting on the new Privacy Policies we've presumably all been bombarded with via email/popups over the last few weeks? Most companies seem to have complied to an extent and as things currently stand I imagine that nothing has really changed. Sites vary from allowing you to easily browse and delete your data, others telling you to like it or fuck off and at least one site asking you to pay for the privilege. Facebook have purposefully made it very difficult to do much other than just nuke your account. Google are the only major ones I've seen who have really complied with the spirit of the law, allowing you to just delete everything they have on you, search through it and delete what you want. Honestly, I think this is the smartest option as it builds trust and who the fuck can be bothered to do anything about it anyway? There's too much valuable stuff there to just delete everything and going through the (scary) reams of data they have on you is painful. The Chicago Tribune has just blocked all EU traffic. The Washington Post has gone so far as to monetise it, that takes balls: Personally, Facebook's attitude was the last straw and I've deleted my account, but it's no loss as I never use it and only end up hating people that I like if I happen to browse the home page. I've stopped using a few sites that make it difficult, like The Washington Post (not a great loss either). I'm going to take the time to consider everything Google has on me and try to be more selective with what they are allowed to use. I've also installed Ghostery (a tracker blocker) and am considering adding other options, but I imagine I'm very much the exception to the rule.
  16. The sexual tension in here is palpable.
  17. "Deserve" is a subjective concept so I can't disagree with you there. I'm not taking it away from them, it's an outstanding achievement. I'm saying that if you played that season 20 times, it wouldn't go that way 19 of them. I think the latter figure's probably much bigger, but basically I think they proved that it can take longer than 38 games for luck to balance out even for a side that you'd expect not to be challenging for Europe under normal circumstances.
  18. Yes but being on the blob is what makes it ginger.
