It's time to paint the walls of my renovated condominium. But which color? I think looking at a book full of colors or little plates makes it difficult, at least for me, to imagine how a whole wall or room painted in that color looks like. Are there any shops in Bangkok which show colors on walls? How did you select which colors you want? And did it work out the way you imagined? This is an example of what I think is a bad way to select colors. It's just too small to get an idea how it will look on a wall.

So if you are black, poor and uneducated then you have to take (expensive) drugs, correct? I think that sounds rather stupid. Basically nobody is forced to take drugs. And nobody is forced to continue with that habit. People are responsible for their lives and their life decisions. Telling them, or pretending that obviously they have to take drugs because condition a, b and c is stupid. But that doesn't mean they should all be locked up even if they take drugs.

Not that I care about football. But looking at some of the results I understand why they want to get drunk.

That's why I meet the guys in Soi Cowboy. Nobody likes woke modern times - ok, most of it.

Ok And what about people who have/had no insurance? Should they just die? Or hope someone will give them some money? How about children who lost their parents? I think there are always some people which should be supported with tax payers' money. The question is how much support and for how long.

I am one of those happy people in this forum. The shop was recommended here. I contacted them, received fast information about the options for my bike, then I made an appointment, and they installed new tires in about 30 min. I will definitely go there again and can highly recommend them.

I don't think it's that easy. Obviously we can decide if we look what some celebrities do, or we ignore it. But if social media is used for propaganda and for spreading (sometimes wrong) information then it's not a question of individual taste anymore. Too many people just accept "news" without questioning the facts. And obviously some people want to manipulate other people - and some are very successful in that. Personally I ignore what some idiots say. But millions of people follow lots of bad people who manipulate them.

I don't like the idea that some people, and it seems more and more people, like to sort everybody into left and right baskets. Why? I.e. support for people: Should some people in need get some support? I.e. should people who just survived a hurricane get food and water and some basic shelter? I think most of us would support that. Should everybody who has no house get one supplied by the government? Maybe including a big TV and money for cigarettes? I guess most of us don't want that. And there are of course many other issues like taxation, health, which drugs should be legal and which illegal? Which immigrants should be accepted under which conditions, and and and. I think many of us have an idea what the radical left and the radical right would like. But with many issues it's not just left or right. I.e. some immigrants are welcome, others not. There should be a balance. And each of us can have ideas where that balance is. And we are not automatically left or right because of that single issue.

For people like us, mostly not so young men in this forum I agree with you. But it seems many teenagers basically have to follow social media. There is a party somewhere, it's on social media. Someone discovered something about a teacher - social media. Everybody talks about your stupid shirt from yesterday - social media. No school tomorrow - social media. I guess no school kid wants to ask the other kids constantly: What is going on, tell me, my father told me social media is bad... Do I like it? No. But I guess most teenagers can't avoid it if they don't want to live in another world than the rest of the kids.

It seems you have problems with understanding. Let me try to explain it again to you. He bought a company for many billions. If that company loses millions for a couple of weeks more doesn't really make a difference. When Musk worked with Tesla I am sure he learned a lot about electric cars and manufacturing and and and. And he applied that wisdom, over years, and the company is sucessful. With his space company he also spent years to learn and optimize it. And now? Now it seems he wants to change a company within days or weeks which is very different from the companies which he managed previously. Does he think it's all so easy that he knows everything already? Does he think it will somehow work half the employees gone? Did he think twice before he made major changes? Obviously Musk can change whatever he wants to change. But I am pretty sure by now he also realizes that he should have changed things a little slower and think first about the consequences. I.e. firing people and then begging some of them to come back doesn't sound like a smart move. And selling subscriptions to verified accounts and then finding out a few days later that this doesn't work is also not really a sign that he though it through. He could have learned all of that in management 101. Maybe he even did learn it. And then he thought himself to be so smart to just shoot from the hip. 555

The title of this video is a little strange. But you can learn a lot about AI.

Americans - nuff said.

It requires a quality brain.

I always think it's funny when I just bought a product online and then for a couple of days I see advertisement for exactly that product. I wish there would be a box "don't bother, I bought it already"

What a nasty comment. Do you know him and his wife? Or do you think that all wives with an older husband want that he dies soon? And how about wives with guys who are disabled, maybe because they had accidents? Are they all waiting for their husband to die? Did you ever experience love? Do you know what it is? It seems you have no idea.

Hire someone who knows what he is doing. Or not firing people who worked there for many years and have a good understanding what is going on. I think that would be a good start.

Why should I do that? I hope he f#%#s it up.

The previous CEO didn't try to change large parts of the company within weeks. And Musk obviously didn't think much. Like: how can you fire half the people and then think the rest has time to verify large amounts of new accounts. It's obvious that that wouldn't work. He fired people and then he asked some of them to come back. Is that a smart move? Obviously he can afford to lose large amounts of money, and maybe he doesn't even care if he and his new toy lose large amounts. Let's see what else comes to his mind.

I think it's amazing to see this supposedly smart guy shooting constantly from the hip and also shooting his own feet at the same time. Wouldn't it be a good idea to think a little? Or maybe a little more? Isn't that what smart people do?

That's great news. Let the right vote a little for Ye, Trump and DeSantis. Every one of them about 15% would be perfect.

And did the police find the ghost? Did they ask for a description so that all those netizens can help with the search? It seems lots of Thais see ghosts all the time. Maybe someone knows this ghost personally and they can tell the police where to go and interrogate him. Of course, maybe the police need OT payment as it is known that ghosts only come out in the dark.

I always love posts like above. I also recently bought a thing on Lazada. It doesn't work. Can you help?

That reminds me of a friend who used to make decent money but that was a long time ago. Now it's survival up country. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't renew his visa, because he doesn't have the money. Just hoping for the best. Because he doesn't have an alternative. I guess he is not alone in that situation.

I never mentioned a decent conversation...

How old are you? Do you have an ID card? ????
