@pixouls @nix For Ireland, also:
- Are you over 80?
(Because you can’t even pay for it here. It’s bonkers. Government by ostriches basically.)

German police prevent Irish people from speaking and singing in Irish in Germany.
But hey, at least we still have the Single Market™, amirite?
EU, you’re doing amazing, sweetie!

Just got back from seeing an 83-year-old man off in an ambulance after he fell and hit his head when his dog lurched for ours by the seafront. He’s hopefully going to be all right; was conscious and talking and is going in for a brain scan now.
Apart from being a little shaken up, it made me appreciate yet again that we live in a place where you can call an ambulance for someone without causing their financial ruin. (And where folks stop and help – thanks Audrey, Robert).

Prime Minister Netanyahu, the Irish people could not be clearer. We are repulsed by your actions. Cease fire now and let the aid flow safely.”

Beautiful day for a train into Dublin.
(Even if it’s for the frankly ridiculous talk of having to pick up my passport and ID card in person from the embassy.)
What fresh hell is this?
(Needless to say that, no, I did not embark on a solo sailing journey from Ireland to Portugal in 2018 and get shipwrecked in the Atlantic.)

#EU #Ireland #FacialRecognition #Biometrics #Surveillance: "In seeking legislation to allow the use of facial recognition technology (FRT) in policing, Ireland risks introducing a technology that scientific evidence has demonstrated is ineffective, inherently flawed, opaque and discriminatory. Rights and civil liberties advocates across the globe have formed coalitions to warn of its dangers. If Ireland goes ahead with this controversial technology, it is a matter of time before the country finds itself in another cautionary international headline." https://www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2024/03/20/were-headed-for-big-problems-if-gardai-get-facial-recognition-technology/

IRISH: So hungry. No potatoes.
CHOCTAW: Yeh, those are Incan foods actually, but hey. Here's a couple hundred bucks we scraped together. Hope it helps bro.
IRISH: Didn't you just walk the trail of tears?
CHOCTAW: Aye, bro, so that's all we could afford. Sorry it's not much. Fuckin colonizers, right?
IRISH: Fuckin colonizers, man. Besties?

@henryk @neil GDPR? I guess we should ask the Irish DPC. (Yes, it’s a joke. The Irish DPC, that is.)

“We ask that the commission undertake an urgent review of whether #Israel is complying with its obligations, including under the EU-Israel association agreement, which makes respect for human rights and democratic principles an essential element of the relationship; and if it considers that it is in breach, that it proposes appropriate measures to the council to consider."
The Guardian: #Ireland and #Spain demand #EU reviews Israel trade deal over rights obligations
"it wouldn't make a difference" argument.
So we give Israel a free ride, #Ireland this time, in sports.
Basketball #Ireland is ok to play people who were in the IDF, very likely also in #Gaza

The @EU_Commission would like to have your input re: how well has the #GDPR done, since 2018.
Despite the wordy explanations in their "Call for evidence" (PDF download on that page): feel free to participate as an #individual. There is lots to say. E.g., express satisfaction that the #GDPR exists; or complain about #corporations de facto evading enforcement, by picking #Ireland's #jurisdiction, and its embarrassingly submissive Data "Protection" Commission #DPC
