  1. The show must go on..... Uw63ydnqWPFSU-UR.mp4
  2. In my view it is price, size and brand. A no-name, cheap suitcase, with zero safety features and a large battery is way more risky than a brand name laptop battery. Cheap powerbanks are dangerous, but at lease airlines have size limits.
  3. It is an Asian thing, aka Chinese. You see grown up people riding around on them on the Skywalk in Bangkok. Nuts!!
  4. Just wait until one of these rideable suitcase take down an airliner and a couple of hundred innocent souls.
  5. China’s Global Travelers Pull Back as Economic Uncertainty Grows https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-09-26/china-s-global-travelers-pull-back-as-economic-uncertainty-grows
  6. The Russians are counter attacking all the time, even quickly attacking the Ukrainians after a breakthrough, to prevent them from fortify their newly gained positions. The Russians are also attacking up north, to tie down Ukrainian defense forces.
  7. So it was you that flooded the market with foreign capital. We will have to wait until 2 pm Friday before BOT have counted the cash and release the current account data.
  8. Bangkok stand harder and firmer. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chao_Mae_Tuptim_shrine
  9. The power of an electric bus ???? from China. G1v6W4gIvswZjcif.mp4
  10. August trade surplus of $360 million. WOW!
  11. August trade data are due at 10:30 am local time. If it is more than $2 billion in deficit, that could be the reason.
  12. The Thai baht is being naughty again. 36.38. August trade balance will be released today at 10:30 am. Concensus is for a $2 billion trade deficit.
  13. Ukraine is pushing, but also taking loses. Can they sustain it? Note the tree ???? at the bottom.
  14. Your guess is as good as mine, only the future will reveal the truth. Talking about fires ????, if BYD maintain 2,000 sales/month, then the first "real" fire should statistically happen on December 8th, 2024. At that day the combined fleet of BYD cars should have done 360 million km.
  15. Very good point. Your excel sheet might show huge fuel savings in favor of the EV, but after 10 years the BYD might be worth less than the then 25 years old Fortuner. Total cost is tricky business in this electrifying new world.
  16. I was hoping you would stay around and share that sheet with us over the next 15 years, before you go to EV heaven. You can use one2car or insurance data for the Fortuner, it is only an accounting tracker anyway.
  17. The Senate's mandate expire next year. Pita "only" needs 251 seats ???? to run the show.
  18. Pib, do me a favor and add 2 extra columns that include depreciation for each vehicle. Your Fortuner is still a nice car and have value after 15 years. It will be interesting to see how much value the BYD retains over the next 15 years.
  19. Do you recall the medical term for your sinus problem? What is similar to the below?
  20. I just noticed the fine print in Pib's post. EV3.5 increased it to 2 vehicles in 2026 and 3 in 2027.
  21. Is the subsidie still linked to future domestic production? EV3.0 use to require 1 vehicle produced and sold locally in 2024 and 1.5 vehicle in 2025, right?
  22. NZ sure does some funny comedy shows. Reminds me of this one. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt9319608/
  23. What a great ???? time. Great horse manure crisis of 1894 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_horse_manure_crisis_of_1894
  24. Burning ???? witches ????‍♀️ wasn't illegal around 1500, but that don't make it more right. The predatory and national self-centered business practices of CCP is appalling.
