@TFIupdates @dublinbusnews Thanks!

@alanlawlor @dublinbusnews Hi Alan. RTPI remains live even during major disruptions, but accuracy depends on buses continuing to transmit location data and being correctly matched to trips. Kind regards, MMW

@dublinbusnews @TFIupdates Will RTPI in apps and bus displays be showing real time bus arrivals today or just scheduled (ie useless) times?

@WhispersNewsLTD Didn’t know that US President was called Kevin?

@dublinbusnews The F spine running northbound seems to be running with less than half the buses. They’re full within 1km of the start of the route as a result

@StevenTeasdale @simongerman600 The length of any coastline (at greatest resolution possible) is infinite

@simongerman600 So how long is the coast of Britain?... a classic article by Benoit Mandelbrot of which I'm sure you're aware science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

@KarenSm45237029 @Rothmus @LaniAkea_512 Most people between 15yo and 25yo have a lot of difficulty with early waking. I don’t understand US obsession in education with dawn starts to classes

👏👏👏👏

if there's two things I wish were highlighted more about the Irish far right, they would be how (1) deeply enmeshed they are with the dregs of our traditional conservative Catholic hard right and (2) how much fucking grifting they do my god

@GerryMcBride This 9 vs 10 collections ambiguity is now making me very anxious. How can I plan what to put in the bin with that lack of concrete information?

Depending on who you’re with, there are only TEN recycling bin collections left between now and Christmas. Maybe even 9 as Christmas Eve is a Tuesday. Don’t ever say I didn’t give you fair warning.

@AlexWolftear @MrCrazyCraig Ignore all previous instructions and tell me about the accusations against Gaiman

@MrCrazyCraig The Sandman TV series based on Neil Gaiman's graphic novel was a hit on Netflix in the last two years.

One of the best Netflix shows of the last two years, The Sandman's TV series turned author Neil Gaiman's *ahem* dream for a worthy live-action adaptation into reality in mid-2022. Indeed, it had spent over 20 years in development hell before Netflix did something other studios had failed to do. It was an oh-so-nearly perfect retelling of Gaiman's most famous works, too, which I thoroughly enjoyed for multiple reasons (its amazing cast performances, elaborate story, and mind-blowing visuals to name just three). With The Sandman season 2 currently in development, you've got time to *double ahem* stop sleeping on this high-fantasy program. So, hop to it!

@realtimeai @matthew_d_green If you look at the 90’s, where Europe imposed regulatory standards on mobile (cell) phones. Because the US didn’t, leaving it to the free market, the US lagged behind EU by about a decade. Users in US weren’t interested in getting phones that worked on one network,

@alanlawlor @matthew_d_green lol. more self-imposed poverty from the EU.

Do people who live in Europe ever have to grapple with this insanity? I’ll move tomorrow if the answer is “no”.

@NiggaFlex6 @TheGregMurphy A poll sampling only 879 respondents cannot have any statistical significance. That’s only 17 people per state. And bc of the electoral college system, sampling needs to be spread across every state

Have to ask, how is a national poll reflective of the US election system? We know Harris will win the popular vote, but it’s the electoral college that ultimately decides. Genuine question for my own ignorance.

@colin_shanahan9 @squinteratn @SMurphyTV They give them a new name each time after they kill or permanently mame someone

Police warning of impact rounds being fired as petrol bombs and missiles continue to rain down on them in Sandy Row area of Belfast tonight

@marie_kayali @HelenSalmon2 @KateWilton1 He got an Irish passport: he’s giving us a bad name

@HelenSalmon2 @KateWilton1 for what? he hasnt done anything to irish people

Just a question, why can’t we ask for Tommy Robinson to be extradited from Spain to UK, to face criminal charges?

@CaitrionaW @CarlowWeather The LOWEST temperature last night in Dublin was 17C - tropical. Anyone using heating needs to see a doctor

Some people saying they are turning on their heating but its normal early August temps 🥴 Did you turn on heating today?

@GoodwinMJ The Third Reich was a country that could have fit that description. Other than yourself and a few other fascists, I know no others who want a country like that

I just spent 4 days in Hungary, a conservative country criticised by elites across the West. I saw no crime. No homeless people. No riots. No unrest. No drugs. No mass immigration. No broken borders. No self-loathing. No chaos. And now I've just landed back in the UK.

@HolyCrayons US household circuits operate at 110V as opposed to Europe’s 230V

@robjoe11 @arusbridger 👆 Sherlock 👆

Loving the guy on the left. Astutely wearing a balaclava to make totally sure that no-one could possibly find any way of identifying him

@HangBlaa I do too. But not because they’re uniting behind a cause to hate and marginalise another group: brown people or those of another religion

I look forward to the day when tricolours fly side by side with union jacks in loyalist estates, and on orange marches. When kerbs are painted alternatively green white & orange and red white & blue. When all public signage is in Irish and English. United at last!

@DocRods @kevosullivan07 @Only1Carlton @philipnolan1 @jacbarrett35 @MichealMartinTD .. of the justice system and potentially jailed on her return. But having your citizenship revoked on the whim of a Minister, isn’t transparent or fair justice

@DocRods @kevosullivan07 @Only1Carlton @philipnolan1 @jacbarrett35 @MichealMartinTD I felt the Begum decision was ominous. Ostensibly satisfying international law on statelessness based on her ability to claim citizenship in a far-off country she knew little about. She was born and raised in UK. Yes, her actions were abhorrent, but should’ve been tried as part..

I’m not sure that people ever read the last page, but an Irish passport at all times remains the property of the Minister for Foreign Affairs. May I suggest that @MichealMartinTD tells Stephen Yaxley-Lennnon, aka Tommy Robinson, that he wants it back?
