    Does anyone know any internet cafes that are still open.
    The ones i know are closed or else its just printing only,
    5 minutes use .eg no web browsing allowed.
    The librarys are closed, i would like to just go to a cafe for an hour once per day .
    Even the cafes i used to go to for a meal are closed .
    I understand theres, a good reason why they are closing or else going to a print only mode.

    With Corona virus lingering on surfaces for extended periods internet cafes would be like incubators. No way should any be open.

    A hotel would be your best bet.

    You'd be safer from a hygiene point of view to use the public toilets. From an IT security point of view just hand your bank details to people walking past.

    My printer at home has given up the ghost and, working from home, I badly need a number of things printed out that I have been working on.

    I tried to phone around a number of internet cafes that I've used in the past but I can't get through to any of them - either ringing out or no phone number. I won't be able to buy a printer as the IT shops appear to be closed.

    Anyone know an internet cafe in Dublin city centre that is currently open for printing?

    If any hotels are open, they might be your best bet. Otherwise perhaps put out a call to family & friends to see if any of them have a printer. You could email it to them and they could post it out to you.

    Lidl and Tesco sell Printers quite often and for around €30 usually, worth a try.

    Tesco Clarehall especially.

    Maybe look at adverts.ie Make sure you give it a good wipe down :pac: Do you know anyone near you that could print them for you and maybe meat up with you or maybe they could put it in through your letterbox or even post them to you express?Anything like that
