Didn't you tweak to the idea that the post you're commenting on was completely satirical? Didn't the bit about good hair raise a suspicion on your part?

Don't you realize that if you're handed the answer .... you'll likely forget it whereas if you do the work, you're more likely to remember.

You don't get out much, it seems. Maybe you've been banned from all search engines for inappropriate queries.

perhaps Tulsi is Mike Lindell's new squeeze.

Trump takes a dive on every head fake by an opponent.

are all Liverpudlians incapable of understanding sarcastic humour?

LOL ... show us your 'research' LOL

go google "good goose gander"

very flawed concept of great strategy chosen to achieve 'great' team chosen to implement 'great' multi-pronged attempts to rewrite history ignoring the will of the voters getting advice from certified crazies like Laura Loomer a cabinet more akin to group therapy in an institution for the criminally insane

That sucks! It's so hard to diagnose what goes wrong in these kind of situations. Maybe google thought it suspicious that your were using a laptop to set up your GV account instead of a mobile. I never thought about contacting the eBay seller to do the activation for me. That was a great idea! I tried to get my closest friend in the US to do it but he suffers from anxiety and was worried that it would screw up his phone or my sim. A different and more laid back friend did it for me in the end. Have you tested your UM number yet? Hopefully, you'll get your GV set up using the UM number.👍 I tried to call SSA the other day only to find out the expected wait time was 2 hours. I always use GV for those calls because of the unlimited free call time. A couple of times GV has dropped the connection after being on hold for a long time... rather frustrating. Lately SSA will sometimes offer to do a callback instead of waiting on hold.... that's a pleasant surprise. I've been in Thailand for 4½ years and I have made hundreds of GV calls only from Thailand. Before moving to Thailand GV would periodically require me to re-verify my mobile number but have never done so since we moved to CM. For a couple of months I was unable to receive incoming calls on my mobile using the GV app. It works fine now but I never figured out what I did that fixed that problem. That problem appeared and disappeared before I set up my UM number. For months I had no other number associated with my GV number. Maybe Google is cutting me some slack since I signed up for GV as soon as it was available to the public.

oh dear... another tariff twit *sigh* US residents will be the first to suffer due to the Don's infantile tariff obsession. In the longer term China will lose export sales after US businesses go through hell trying to rejig their supply chain. Given the Don's fish out of water flip-flopping US businesses may decide to hang on tight until the Don's tantrum dies down.

A very apt Nom de Plume and a post to match. You do realize that in the US, the state governments carry the bulk of the burden for delivering an education to its residents? The Federal Dept. offers assistance, attempts to ensure equal access to all children, collects data and conducts research.... not much to do with actual teaching or setting curiculum. It seems likely you can't manage on your own so I hope you have a friend who can help you read this web page: https://www.ed.gov/about/ed-overview

Have you ever incurred charges outside of Thailand? Those are the fees being discussed in this thread. US credit/debit cards call those fees "foreign transaction fee". Some US cards don't have those fees and some financial institutions charge high fees. Everyone should know that your issuing bank/credit union/etc. doesn't participate in the foreign exchange. VISA and MasterCard do the foreign exchange portion.

You can always create a brand new Google account. I have about a dozen that I use for the free 15GB online storage. Setting up GV is probably easiest if using a desktop/laptop. Instead of installing the GV app, you can do everything on the GV web page (voice.google.com). You may have difficulty installing the GV app if you're in Thailand because it's not in the Thailand app store. You may be able to install GV using the apk file independently from the Google store. My friend is a little nervous about that aspect of installing GV. I used only GV for the first couple of years after moving to Thailand. Eventually I encountered a US institution that would not accept a GV number for some functions. I then set up an UltraMobile PayGo number by buying a UM sim on eBay and having a US based friend swap in that sim so that the US mobile network can verify and accept the sim. He mailed me the sim and I've been using it in an iPhone after I moved my local Thai service to an e-sim. The UM sim costs about $15 and then each month about $3.15 which gets you 100 free minutes and 100 free SMS. You must use the UM services on WiFi. After getting the UM number set up you could use it to set up a new GV account. I don't get any SPAM calls on my UM number but do get some SPAM texts.

I have a friend who is also seeking a Skype alternative. I'm trying to help him get a GV number set up. He's on Android but I'm on IOS so what works for me doesn't for him. What is the problem that is preventing you from creating a new GV number?

For others wishing to do the same:

Here's a picture..... saved 1000 words of typing.

Ideally I would like a tank gauge that can report tank water level to a home automation system. I see some expensive options in NZ and USA. I need something very simple that just can report the level periodically or when queried by the monitoring system. WiFi comms. would be my 1st choice but other options are also reasonable. If a remote monitoring option is too expensive or too troublesome, I'll just have to settle for a visual indicator of some sort. Anyone have experience or recommendations?

I think that you're on the right track. I would opine that the depth of field available in most photographs does not compare to the depth of field that the eye can perceive in the mirror. The information available to the brain from most photographs does not yield a natural look, but the image in the mirror does.

Let's see.... the measles vaccine is 97% effective after the standard two doses. She was unvaccinated and died from complications associated with her measles infection. What conclusion is to be drawn? If all other factors remained the same there would only be a 3% chance of her being infected. Even when a vaccinated person catches measles, the risk of serious complications is reduced significantly. But if you like sailing in stormy weather.... have at it.
