  The key difference is there’s a mechanism under the Good Friday Agreement by which reunification can occur, there has been for nearly 30 years, it requires the consent of the population.

  At the time of partition what is now NI wanted to remain part of the UK and while this was colonised by England 400 odd years prior at some point it’s probably good to take the people’s opinion into account. The demographics have now shifted but repeated surveys have not indicated a sufficient change in what the population as a whole want to trigger a border poll.

  There’s more to consider here than historical ideals too, like actual practical aspects of any reunification - more than 25% of the NI population are employed directly by the public sector for instance not to mention those on govt contracts, the NHS for all it’s faults is a significant factor for a lot of people, what benefits are available.

  Kinda sorta, but I’ll allow it 😃 it’s probably also the coolest\most iconic of the current crop of hypercars too (in my opinion) so I reckon the theory holds.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Falling with style⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was hoping the latest ruleset would bring a few homologation specials, but alas not. In my opinion homologation specials from both Le Mans and Rally have brought forth some of the most iconic cars of all time, it’s a shame that’s gone away.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just coincidence⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There probably is, but to OPs original question, if you’re going out of your way to find footage of Hitler that matches Kegsbreath, then it probably is a coincidence.

  Mate, just the walking involved doing a desk job working from home they should be bigger than that.

  I think most pubs in Ireland would have much the same reaction. A hardcore republican bar in the north might raise a ruckus.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Football.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  How on earth have you read defensiveness into a 2 word comment. What shit has anyone started?

  Commenter above was pointing out that most Brit hate in Ireland is of the fist shaking “hate the Brits on principal” rather than an active aggression and that Ireland trusts the UK to the point the UK in effect provides the maritime and air defence of Ireland.

  Meanwhile you pop up with edgelord commentary apparently solely for the purpose of causing drama.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Football.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol, drama much?

  Who she?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lord give me strength⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m genuinely surprised it annoys anyone tbh, it’s just a couple of numbers. I laugh when my kids catch me and be as cringey as I can with it at every opportunity. Good harmless fun I can exploit for years to come.

  Vim?

  They were merrily bleeding me every month until they bumped the price to £22/mo for my kids to basically play Minecraft and Lego star wars. Byeeee.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bought it on the Steam Summer Sale⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No wonder it’s so expensive, they’re including snap-on products in the box.

  These cops likely don’t even have guns.

  Never change violet 😂

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Too lazy or didn’t want to?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some neighbors have no chill⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I was thinking the same, I’d like more context though, if it’s a quick throttle blip (or like if they’re driving stick and need to reverse the car up a slope) could be understandable. If they’re bouncing it off the rev limiter for a minute that’s a different kettle of fish. Given the rest of the post I’m erring on the side of it being blown out of proportion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The unAbomber. Otherwise, I agree.⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  As time goes on I realise that terrorists do in fact win a lot of the time and sustained campaigns of violence do in fact achieve their goals in a lot of cases. Which is fucking depressing.

  I was just wondering how they get away with writing homemade in the label.

  I was too damn patient and missed the end of the steam sale this week FFS.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Confirmed: PS5 console prices are being raised by $100 | VGC⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It almost certainly will be, but so is everything else.

  I mean it’s a violet08 post, the baseline is horny.

  How are you defining them?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nvidia Answers my DLSS 5 Questions - Daniel Owen⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m also assuming consistency is going to be an issue. Will characters look the same at the start of a sequence as the end? Or from load to load?

  Is there scarcity somewhere? Priced out completely, but they’re available.
