    The CEO of Toyota has come out and stated they are stopping the production of EV's. Maybe later they will resume but they think they have a better option with Hydrogen based fuel.

    Thanks, I have been reading recently about this. Most manufacturers are coming out and saying EV's may not be viable. I believe the fires, and high insurance may be the problem. However, I have also been reading a lot about Hydrogen. More than one manufacturer has the technology, but I guess it is the oil companies, and governments who control what goes on the roads. I mean, if you had a car whose exhaust was water, how can you steal money under false pretenses of global warming by introducing ULEZ and other such cons.

    One may think that his hatred of foreigners in general i.e. anybody non-thai,  is a regretful mentality amongst many Thai's and mainly those wearing some sort of uniform should it be the hotel bellboy or other.

    I tend to agree. However, I personally have noticed it more since the covidiocy spamdemic, especially when we were branded as dirty Farangs by the individual we have been discussing. He wears a uniform, thereby, according to the Thai education brainwashing system, he must be right.

  3. I am not computer savvy, so it is taking a bit of time to understand some of the posts, It is, however, interesting to read, and learn what Windows is doing. My main complaint with Windows 11 is the 30 second lag between closing one window on the desktop, and opening another. I have looked online to no avail, as it seems Microsoft is ignoring this problem totally. A small inconvenience, I admit, but still a nuisance when you are sitting waiting for the desktop icon to highlight before you can open it.

    the two countries should accelerate construction of the China-Thailand railway

    So they can get their troops and tanks down through Thailand quicker.

    and expand cooperation in the digital economy, green development and new energy.

    LMAO.......What about the new power stations under construction in China........

    Coal power continues to expand in China, despite the government's pledges and goals. In the first half of 2023, construction was started on 37 gigawatts (GW) of new coal power capacity, 52 GW was permitted, while 41 GW of new projects were announced and 8 GW of previously shelved projects were revived
