    Just watched the cops pull over a car for tinted windows, cop gets out, makes a video of the car on a phone App with the number plate, and gets back in his car and drives off. Driver will get an automatic fine which is linked to his bank account for ease of payment.

    They know how to do things out there! :cool:

    Do you have a android watch to provide the data? Otherwise all you get to do is enter sleep and waking times.


  • Registered Users Posts: 902 ✭✭✭3d4life


    Thanks Smurf, watch sources the data then ?

    Pulse rate while sleeping would be interesting. Dont have any electronikie watch. Will have to look into it.

    How many times a day can a dude with tinted windows be fined ?

    Still dark clouds - but no showers so far :)

    Deskside at home in the home office, working on stats and data for another paper I’m co-authoring.

    Got quite a good bit of important stuff done earlier so knocking off at 4.30pm and off to the gym for a workout and a swim.

    Nosey Dave's interest has been sparked by this JK! What's the paper? Or is it top secret? :D

    APPS like Samsung Health just allow you to enter sleep time start 2200 end 0600 and says that you had 8 hours sleep so you are wonderful, but some Fitbits or Apple Watch monitor your heart beat so it is able to show the quality of your sleep and how many times you woke up, they have a sleep quality monitor so at least in my case i can see what effects my sleep such as alcohol, caffeine or room temperature.

    Sat outside with a drink. Lovely evening for it, even slept ok today. Back inside soon to watch shows and relax. It's a good day.


  • Registered Users Posts: 416 ✭✭SaltSweatSugar


    Lying on my bed feeling all jelloid. I just had the most amazing bath with some dreamy bubble bath, a good book, and a glass of wine. After over a year of living here I finally discovered the jacuzzi function actually works.

    I miss sushi :(.

    But I did get those Doughnut Kiosk doughnuts the other day so I have eased my suffering a little. :)

    Next hunt will be to Iskanders opposite the central bank for a lamb shwarma. Just need an excuse to be in Dublin again.

    Just back from a site visit for a freebie job to boost my portfolio. It's hard, yet invigorating to be working for nothing, but knowing it will be beneficial. Still utterly sickened that I'm not allowed use stuff I did under a different banner. Very bad form.:mad:

    We're in this together was the Covid slogan. The Fcuk we are. Loads been thrown to the wolves and those of us still condemned to PUP for now are lumped into the usual social welfare stigma as the economy moves on without us in tow.

    The end of another exciting day chez leg. :rolleyes:

    I'd love a week in the sun, laze about on the beach all day and lovely meals in the evenings.

    With wine obviously. :p

    I went to visit Iran many years ago, was chatting to a man who was so proud to tell me that his two sons worked in Iskanders in Dublin, started to realise just how small this world is :)

    Visit me, we will have a balmy 46C today with a light breeze, if you time it properly the UV index will be 13 with 330 IUs per minute, so you can tan beautifully in 10 minutes and be like a tomato in 11 minutes. Wine available, red white or rose, all hand produced in someone’s bathtub.
    What more could you ask for ?:)

    Yikes, you would actually enjoy that weather ?? There is a reason that I’m up at 6am, and that is to enjoy the outdoor pool before it turns into a lobster pot.

    Admittedly, the humidity is low, in my coastal home city, the temperatures are a bit cooler but the humidity is 60-70% and that is a nightmare.

    I couldn't survive in those conditions. Give me cool and rainy any day.

    It's humidity that is the killer.

    Deskside, looking at what's on for the day. The sea was like a pond down the pier this morning.

    Happy Hump day Wherers!

    Smurf, I have no idea how you deal with heat like that! I was had a week in Madrid last June and it hit 40 degress one day and I was dying of heat... I could never get used to that.

    Deskside still , was tidying up my room a bit and found an unopened box which had a french press in it, I brought it last year before I got my v60 and forgot about it, I'm gonna give it a go there and I'll report back on my findings 😎🤔😃.

    Couchside after getting my stitches out my gum. Randomly booked a few days in Clonakilty at the end of August, they better have good Guinness for me :D


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Just went to charge my phone but it started beeping and a message came on saying that there is moisture detected, I got absolutely soaked going to the shop after work and had my phone and charger in my bag so I don't know which has the problem, bet my phone will die now. I got a good charger delivered yesterday but of course I ordered the wrong one, I absolutely hate technology, nothing works for me and I've no patience so never read instructions etc. On a good note I'm heading to my friends for dinner and drinks shortly, cant bloody wait and no work tomorrow makes it even better. Going to try charging my phone again now,wish me luck as I have a feeling it won't end well.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,499 ✭✭✭IamMetaldave


    Fr336, clean the contact points on the phone and charger :)

    Deskside. Basically finished for the day... Fat Dave is thinking about dinner... no idea why I'm not hungry.
