  1. I asked an AI a similar question a week or two ago. It seems that some of the areas which now burned were significantly cheaper than other areas in that expensive big area. And that was at least part of the reason why people lived there - even if they should have known that there was a significant risk. Also, the fire-insurance was/is extremely high or not possible to get in some cases. That should be a big red warning sign in everybody's mind.
  2. I know that can be measured. I just checked how accurate, see below. One of the problems with the climate change activists is that they proclaim to know that 1 or 2 degrees make a huge difference. But they don't want to look too far into the past to find out that the earth temperature varied significantly more in the past millions of years. From www.perplexity.ai The method used to determine the age of fossils is called radiometric dating, with carbon-14 dating being one of the most well-known techniques for dating organic materials. Accuracy of Radiometric Dating Carbon-14 Dating: This method is effective for dating materials up to about 50,000 years old. Its accuracy can vary based on factors such as contamination and the preservation of the sample, but when properly applied, it can provide ages within a few hundred years. Other Radiometric Methods: Techniques like uranium-lead dating or potassium-argon dating are used for much older fossils, ranging from millions to billions of years. These methods can achieve high precision, often within a few million years depending on the half-lives of the isotopes used.
  3. And in a way I don't blame them when they look for other options. Every farang who pretends to be holiday millionaire and takes a girl home to a different reality should expect that she "adjusts" to a different reality. I think he should tell her in advance what to expect. But to be fair to the farang, I don't know how many girls listen if the farang tells them what to expect and how many believe it.
  4. And what does your sample have to do with the real world? Floods, volcanos, tornados, bush fires, etc. exist since forever - long before humans appeared on earth.
  5. I just looked them up. With things like that I never know if that is a joke or if it's real. I just don't understand those MAGA creatures.
  6. I don't know where you got your life experience, but I have to admit my life experiences before Thailand did not adequately prepare me for this place. Many things in Thailand are different, very different. And for many guys, me included, it was overwhelming how many beautiful girls were interested in me when I arrived in Thailand. And many of them knew very well how to make me happy - not just in bed. Like I mentioned above, luckily, I didn't have much money at that time. I am pretty sure if I would have had money, then I would have helped a couple of sick grandmothers in hospitals far away, and maybe also the sick buffaloes...
  7. Obviously, it's more than unlikely that the criminal will every go to jail again. If he should go to jail, I am sure he will find a doctor who will testify that he is a very sick man... The system should be easy. Jail is jail and hospital is hospital. If any inmate needs a week in hospital, fine. Then add a week to the time he has to stay in jail. Problem solved.
  8. Thanks, I will look at that article.
  9. In the rare cases that I use my phone for something my gf shouldn't know, then I make sure I delete this before I come home. She can look at my phone anytime, no problem. Mostly we both use our own phones. But it happens that maybe I take a picture of her, and she asked me to give her my phone so that she can look at the picture. And when she looks at her own picture, she can obviously easily also see other pictures. I don't mind because I know there is nothing on my phone which is a problem. Sometimes I also have her phone in my hands, i.e. she shows me some pictures in her album. I can see also other pictures. I never saw anything which surprised me. I am 99.9% sure I can trust her.
  10. I have to admit it took me a little longer to understand the meaning of your post. With my current (long time) gf that was easy for me. I was her first boyfriend ever. 😉
  11. What intentions do you think does he have? Does he intend to obey the US constitution? Or is that just a minor detail which you ignore? How about peaceful transfer of power? Do you think that is important - and not just when he actually won? Whatever you took. It was too much.
  12. The video: He asks why there are all the cameras. And then the police officer asked him questions. And only then does the police officer tell him the usual "everything you say can get used against you". Is that a normal arrest in Thailand? Where are all the videos where the big criminals were arrested? Obviously, he shouldn't have done that. But why such a big drama?
  13. I think we should also not forget that it seems many Thai women, of more or less any age, have illusional images of all farangs. I heard numerous times from women that they want a farang husband. Because we all know that farangs are all rich. Their wives get houses and cars, never work, have lots of pocket money and all that. And obviously they don't have to do anything. Yeah, sure. But it seems that is what some of them expect.
  14. It depends on what you want. I don't like home work like cleaning and cooking and all that. My gf is a great cook and she accepts that she does most of the cleaning, etc. Many Thais, including my gf, are not able to get any well-paid job. My could work for a minimum wage job or more money i.e. working in a bar (as cashier or whatever). Personally, I prefer that she is mostly at home taking care of our home and me. I know other couples were both work. Then some share the work at home. And/or they have a maid and nanny etc. Everybody up to their tastes.
  15. Why? And why would anybody be so stupid to leave compromising material on a device which the gf/wife can access?
  16. I am sure some numbers can be "calculated" from fossils and all those things. But how accurately? It seems now the climate activists like to tell us that not even 2 degrees temperature change over 100 years make a catastrophic difference. Do we really know if 10,000 years ago 100,000 years ago or it was a degree or two warmer or cooler than now?
  17. CharlyH just started the thread below. I wonder how many people actually try to learn from others and how many do actually learn from others. IMHO most guys think they don't need to learn anything about relationships. Maybe they think they are smart, or they think "my one is different", or lots of other reasons. How about you? Did you try to learn from others? Did you actually pay attention and learn and avoided some mistakes? Or did you make all the same mistakes which many others made because you just had to experience it yourself to understand it? For me personally the situation was relatively easy. I didn't have much money and stayed in a cheap place. I didn't give any girl the idea that I have a lot of money because I didn't have a lot of money. So, for me it was: If you like to stay with me, fine. I should make enough money for both of us to have a basic life. But don't expect must more than that. For me that worked out. Obviously, I also met some girls who wanted more money. But they had to realize I couldn't give it to them even if I would want to do that. Problem solved. Over time, my money situation improved. But luckily, I was never a target for girls who want (only) money.
  18. Really? If it would be so easy, then it should be easy to break up? No money anymore, no relationship/arrangement anymore, correct? It seems many participants of those arrangements invest a lot of feelings, and when things don't work out the way they want, then feelings are hurt and small or big fights start. Or when was the last time that you saw a girl just walk away?
  19. Dear @CharlieH, What is the purpose of this? Should we all identify ourselves in your writing? Or do you want to warn new members about what could happen in Thailand? Or what? You are long enough here to know that whatever you write, it doesn't really matter. Because obviously "my one if different".
  20. I would love to see the measurement over those years. Who measured? How did they measure? And how was it recorded? As far as I know the oldest handwritten document is less than 5000 years old. And as far as I know that wasn't about the weather. I am looking forward seeing your documents from the 133,000 years before that.
  21. We can be pretty sure they would publish details if it would help their sob-story.
  22. So, all men who married a foreign woman half their age are all the same? That's interesting news. Maybe you should write a book about that or teach your knowledge at some university. And for the record: 2 x her age was more than my age when we got together. 😉
  23. If you think he is like you, then obviously I should not be surprised that you support him. He is definitely not like me and my friends. And if I would know anybody like him in person, I would avoid such ahole.
  24. Why should anybody try to separate the body from the brain? He is what he is. His politics reflect his behavior reflect his character. GOP members could have chosen similar politics with a sane leader. They didn't.
