yeah. fucking voice notes.
when the phone will transcribe your waffle into text for you.

 

[ann post]

it probably has a mad comparative footprint compared to just writing a text being a clouded file and all tha

 

[ann post]

I asked a robot:

Message Type	Annual Emissions (1M users)
Text	~5.1 metric tons CO₂e
Voice Note	~109.5 metric tons CO₂e

So, voice notes produce about 20x more CO₂e than text messages over the same usage scale.

other robot:

Based on these very rough assumptions, using voice notes instead of text messages for 1 million users over a year could potentially result in a significantly higher carbon footprint, possibly around 17 times greater in this specific scenario.

Some true swan facts;

1. They can break your arm with their wing,
2. An incident occurred in County Limerick where individuals of Eastern European extraction were reported to have been using nets stolen from a tennis club to catch swans, intending to eat them.
3. The English Queen Mother ate swans

I believe the headline was 'Incredulous Polish deny Eating Swans'

OK this is obviously a minor complaint due to the appalling circumstances of the story but for fucks sake you can't just drop this in a headline and then never mention it again

‘She is leaving me over this’: Richard Satchwell outlined problems about buying monkeys in same period he is alleged to have murdered wife

An invasive search of Tina Satchwell’s home was not carried out until six years after she was reported missing, the court heard

my reason for boycotting the eurovision has returned to its usual apathy about the whole thing, instead of it being a moral stance this year.
a norwegian singing a song about a russian dog, as the irish entry? were they hoping we'd look cosmpolitan?

There are pop up adverts on YouTube where the Israeli Eurovision entrant asks people to vote for them. Never saw anything like it. Fuck Israel.

Hardly surprising from this despicable piece of shit

‘Its all very well emoting about the Palestinians but where is the legislation abolishing the cap at the airport?’ Michael O’Leary blasts ministers

Ryanair’s Michael O’Leary has warned that temporary measures to relieve the operation of the Dublin Airport Passenger cap are only in place for the coming summer and winter seasons, and says Government has done nothing to ensure long term access despite promises.

I’m getting married in 3 weeks and the money we’ve saved for it is in a credit union current account.
They accidentally blocked the account for 2 weeks, haven’t sent out the debit card we’ve requested multiple times over the last 2 months and now that all that’s resolved and we’re trying to transfer the money to an account that can actually be used, they’re not able to process transfers for any customers.
This Irish credit union uses a U.K. bank for their current accounts (I don’t know how or why), their system messed up lots of customers transfers and they also take longer in general as its not a European payment.
We’ll now have the money in the next two days but this has been the most stressful part of the whole wedding, and I haven’t even gotten my dress yet (I’ll sort it) .

There we were in the pub and there was a lad there being a cunt. He's a brilliant chippie, but also a crackhead. He'd be an arsehole without the crack. But he has gotten work locally, so there he was all evening thinking he's something and being a cunt.

I didn't speak to him, but we have friends in common, so every time he was near me he'd do a little shoulder shove at me. Pure childishness. I left it.
Then, this dickhead comes up, takes my pint, pours it into his glass and says "don't worry about it".
I didn't worry, but I was certainly unhappy. And was vocal, in my home accent. My lovely friends got a sample of me rearing up. They were surprised and actually frightened. I'm not that kind of guy.

stupid cunt. I shan't be dragged down to his level. Though I want to, just for a minute.

Piss in his drink next time

Piss in his drink next time

grrr.

I did tell other people "he's just trying to get into your head, forcing a reaction. Typical crackhead stuff, leave him be" I said. And then I'm the one that gave the reaction.

Disappointed with myself. Though he may get accidentally and repeatedly on the floor if I see him today.

I suppose it's more minor than my previous minor complaint, but the mosquitoes got me last night. Lumps on my temple, eye socket, hand and abdomen .And there's nowt I can do except to keep telling myself to Stop Picking At It!.

I could sting myself with nettles I suppose.

Horrible thjng. I experienced them for the first time a couple of years ago in Venice. Much worse than I'd ever imagined. I had assumed they'd be something similar to midge bites.
