  1. Another Aussie? Deport him and blacklist all Aussies from entering Thailand. They're doing no good for this country.
  2. Busted! lmao Obviously was talking about his own antisemitic feelings...
  3. I think you forgot to mention "she" said "she" hates jews because they like to kill Christian babies and use their blood for baking and religious ceremonies...
  4. There are more, but those are all Muslim countries which don't recognize Israel as a country, so maybe time to get a bit more education. Plus, got nothing to do with the topic. Also @MalcolmB
  5. Although this may seem off-topic, the Maldives, a Muslim-majority country, has banned Israelis due to political reasons. No other country has enacted such a ban, and certainly not based on behavioral concerns. That said, judging by how often Brits, Indians, Chinese and Russians are brought up on this forum, it seems they'd be the ones first in line for a ban, definitely not the Israelis.
  6. Illegal bike rental business...wow, hold on, let me load up my guns (and bring the entire island police for the bust)
  7. SMS is so outdated. They should employ a system like the USA's Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA). It's part of the Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) managed by FEMA. WEA sends emergency alerts to smartphones in a specific geographic area using cell broadcast technology. These alerts can include details about severe weather, AMBER alerts, or other critical emergencies, and they override silent mode to ensure they're noticed. Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) don't use SMS because SMS technology has certain limitations that could delay or compromise the effectiveness of emergency alerts. Here are a few reasons why WEA is preferred: 1. Speed and Reach: WEA uses cell broadcast technology, which sends messages to all compatible devices in a specific geographic area almost instantly. SMS, on the other hand, sends messages individually to each recipient, which could cause delays, especially during high-demand situations. 2. Location Precision: WEA targets devices within a defined area, regardless of their phone numbers or carriers. SMS would require knowing and selecting specific phone numbers, which isn't practical for dynamic or geographically focused emergencies. 3. Reliability: During emergencies, cellular networks can become congested. SMS relies on the same infrastructure as voice and data, so it may fail or slow down. Cell broadcast used by WEA is more robust in such scenarios. 4. No Subscription Needed: WEA doesn’t require users to sign up or provide their phone numbers, ensuring everyone with a compatible device in the alert zone receives the message. SMS, by contrast, would require a list of recipients. WEA's design prioritizes speed, precision, and accessibility—key factors in life-saving emergency communications. It's all about ensuring critical information gets to the right people at the right time!
  8. And I thought British manners are still a thing...
  9. A lot more often than cancer risk (linked to overcooking/burning/toasting) and some of these can be fatal. Hot pan 1 minute each side depends on pan temperature, meat thickness, cooking method etc. To reduce risk of carcinogens, you can try using healthier cooking methods like baking, roasting, poaching, or slow cooking.
  10. Raw or undercooked beef can contain bacteria like E. coli, Salmonella, Campylobacter, and Listeria, which can lead to food poisoning if not properly killed by cooking. Undercooked beef can also contain parasites like tapeworms or trichinella.
  11. By your definition, there are numerous Israeli 'farangs.' A significant proportion of Jewish Israelis are of European descent or heritage, and many are indeed white.
  12. If you need to ask, you probably haven't been to France lately...
  13. It's not just for me, but several people @Sheryl. General cardiologist/s. Interventionional cardiologist/s. Electrophysiologists. Thanks.
  14. You're right. Thanks. Here's the up-to-date link to Dr. Taworn Suithichaiyakul's profile: https://www.bch.in.th/find-doctor/362 Can you suggest any other recommended cardiologists in Bumrungrad and/or MedPark?
  15. Sadly no longer up to date. I think he moved to Ramkamhang Hospital and has quite a minimal schedule. Any other recommended cardiologists in Bumrungrad and/or MedPark? @Sheryl
