The all-time record has been broken many summers in a row in reality. The provenance of the 1800s record isn't that great.

Old enough to remember when I was jealous that the Scots got to the world cup and we didn’t…

Hard to take the Scottish patriotism on display that seriously when they turned down the chance to be independent.

He did fire loads of Twitter engineers which at the time people said would result in the website crashing almost instantly. Can’t stand the guy but I don’t think we have him on that one.

The drug has great results in trials. The results on Trump seem to be less impressive....

He then was asked about Aughinish Alumina…

What a load of fuss about nothing. It’s a conference. Making such a big deal out of it is some serious conspiracy theory NWO stuff. Lynn Ruane is not getting invited to the latter is she…

This website has a lot of power users who have much of the same energy of the people on X that they’d hate to be compared to.

Hilarious to think most of us thought VAR would be a step forward

This 800m world record is seriously at risk.

I can only assume there's a massive edit war on the Wikipedia entry as to how to document the result of the war.

No 5 o'clock game today?

I still have angry yanks going around the mute filters after this. And going back through my post history to try and dunk on me. Bizarre stuff.

My feeds are full of Scots having fun in Boston. So jealous.

We’ve now come full circle from Italia 90 and we’ve now export players under the (grand)parent rule

I think RTE just said "unfortunately" it's the hydration break.

It's a huge day for Dubliner Pico Lopes, as the defender and the Cape Verde team face Spain in Atlanta as part of their World Cup fixtures. Far from Crumlin, The 42’s David Sneyd sat down with Lopes’ wife Leah and his family to talk about his journey of a lifetime. jrnl.ie/7071255

Mid life crisis continues…

Ooh, nearly a decade on there’s been a new and very attention-grabbing arrest in the case of the Putney Pusher – a jogging guy who shoved a woman into the path of a bus (she was amazingly not hurt)… www.lbc.co.uk/article/mult...

What feature does Snapchat have that Whatsapp doesn’t?

This is not what Russell was looking for getting to the circuit this morning!

Is this true? Do fans of the other basketball teams in NY not want them to lose?

This stuff is so tiresome and the natural conclusion is that I should describe Keely Hodgkinson as being on a quest to break the Women’s World Record not just the world record like a normal person talks.

Now that everything is streaming this is sort of what my experience is. My phone buzzes to say there’s a goal and then I see it on the TV 5 seconds later

I’d love to go to Mexico for the food but this stuff from the yanks is bananas. American food is a cheeseburger and chips, the stuff you put on a kids menu because it’s so bland they’ll eat it.

No judgement from me on this German fella touring American fast food places etc. Last year I was in Georgia I immediately loaded up Google Maps to see how far the nearest buc-ees was. Unfortunately it remains a bucket list trip.

Thoughts and prayers with the “Europoors” tech guys who try and slam Europe over the DSA etc

To be partially contrarian, certainly on this website, I think the Space X IPO will be a near term success. Retail who bought in the IPO will be able to flip for a gain if they want. Too much riding on it to be a failure as IBs will want to get off the other big IPOs that are coming.

Claude really calling me out here with the auto generated chat name...

Sorry to be annoyingly pedantic but he was a trillionaire last week too. The IPO isn’t really a valuation event, it’s a liquidity event.

Guns for self defence worked out great last time in Belfast.

The expanded number of teams is also a joke.

OK the hydration break is an abomination.

The organisations behind it already are proscribed and the UK authorities have never showed much interest in tackling it…

Must look up what she was saying about Biden approx 2 years ago....

I was half joking last night but do people realise that this isn't new from loyalists? It seems to me that people don't?

Speaking of terms not used anymore. News reports in Ireland used to mention "cross-channel soccer" but they meant English football, which is across the Irish sea, not a channel?

To be fair mobs of loyalists have been trying ethnic cleansing in Belfast long before social media was invented

Nobody cares about the World Cup is quite the take. I would prefer it didn't have all the baggage but the only thing that's going to impede most people watching it is time zones, not whatever nonsense the US admin is up to.

Dublin…

I don’t think there’s voter fraud in the US but I think allowing vast quantities of early mail in ballots and drop boxes etc isn’t exactly the best way to have a lot of confidence about your system.

We shouldn't ban social media for children because it's bad for everyone seems to be a popular view on this website.

He’s not really wrong is he?

The irony of any New Yorker doing this when so many call themselves “Irish” or “Italian”..

GR always moaning on the radio and usual Brit bias stuff make the downfall so much fun.

100% and this website is really bad at comprehending that AI is a useful thing. Your life/job wasn't impacted at all if you didn't use Blockchain. Your life/job is materially more difficult if you ignore / don't use LLMs.

Parking Jaxson Dart’s politics for a second, it’s just so bizarre to me that US celebrities and sports people are so into politics. You could go a hundred years and not have a Premier League player make any positive or negative comment about any political party

In the US at the moment and seems they’ve finally switched to card machines at the table, contactless payments etc. First time I’ve not felt like I needed to carry cash for sure.

The choice is that you get something new or you watch this before ever more empty before being boarded up. There’s not a realistic third option.

Interesting location for a 5k race...
