I have a 12 mini, so due an upgrade. I like the dual lens on the back, but the 16e seems to be able to replicate that. The 12 has much lower resolution. Must check out the screen specs, the pixel density on the 12 mini is great, wouldn’t want anything less. With age, I need a larger screen!

Compared to SE levels. Interested to see what the 2-in-1 camera can do, if it’s a genuine alternative to the twin camera set up, then the only real difference between this and the 16 is the Dynamic Island and camera button. Is screen tech and resolution the same?

Steep enough price point.

Brilliant recap. You had a busy year.

When you’re also resting the telly on it, then maybe have a rethink. 😊

We’re probably looking at the same again, so, with labour swapped in for the greens.

So, what are we looking at? A 4 party coalition? Have FG said they won’t go in with SF?

You’re in for a treat! That library has had some brilliant social media content over the years.

Very poor section on climate in the debate. All it did was allow RTE to tick a box to say it was part of the programme. Nothing of substance from the leaders.

Yep, SD and others are better suited to being in opposition, I think.

I have the first 7 or 8 Lone Wolf books. From memory they were a step up in terms of gameplay from the Livingstone books. I think that Choose Your Own Adventure was the true gateway drug to this genre :)

It's a tricky one to call. I'd usually vote GP, but I'm torn this time because I think the public perception of them is so low that they won't form part of the government next time. Tactically, would I be better off voting for a 'change' party that stands a chance and is somewhat credible?

I’m not surprised at the public impression, as I would have had the GP in 1st place too. The more I read, the better Labour is looking. I wonder is that a better use of a vote now, considering the GP is unlikely to form a part of a coalition (IMO) ?

Nice summary, thanks. Where do you think it goes from here, though? If the UN can’t run it properly, who can?
