Catch 22 The only way to change the system is to vote for it but you can't vote for it 'till it's changed

A bump in the road to full EV adoption - EV Battery Factory Will Require So Much Energy It Needs A Coal Plant To Power It
Why don't the Americans build their own factory?

Spread the word! More Brits in Thailand can now vote in the UK
I agree entirely and would also add that the whole idea of using a proxy is totally wrong in terms of the personal and private nature of the vote. There is no reason why electronic voting should not be incorporated. Using the internet is good enough for banks so it should be plenty good enough for election voting then we could all vote whenever there is a snap election.

Diode LED power consumption
Yeah. We all are.

Diode LED power consumption
Add to that a bit of PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) at say 1kHz, and the LED will look as though it's on full time but will only use power in accordance with the mark space ration of the PWM. In other words if the ratio is 9:1 (that's 9 "off" and 1 "on") then the LED will look like it's on but only use 10% of your 20mA power. All is explained here but you need a basic understanding of electronics to ......well.........understand it. https://www.instructables.com/PWM-pulse-Width-Modulation-Power-LED-Dimmer/

Bangkok residents call for 20 baht fare amid uproar over 100 baht BTS cost
Steady on. Didn't a government department recently recommend a 10 - 15 Baht rise in the minimum wage? It may improve the 2/3 a bit.

Perhaps the problem is not the fare but rather the level of minimum wage.

Worker injured in fire at South Australian solar farm
That's what commissioning is all about. Find the faults/problems before people try to use it. Would have been nicer if it hadn't caught fire though.

Moulded plugs? garment steamers
You sure that is salt? Where are you getting your water from? If that thermal fuse needs replacing, your local repair shop and/or electronic components shop will have them.

Moulded plugs? garment steamers
I think that there may be a thermal fuse inside that bit of clear'ish sleeving. You might like to check continuity between the tow red wires connected each end of it. Also the thermal cutout looks a bit corroded where the blue wires are connected.

Rice rivalry: India’s export ban grains optimism for Thai prices
Basmati is still exported so how come you are missing it? The following from a news article last year: India, the world's largest rice exporter, banned the exports of non-basmati white rice on Jul. 20. The government is seeking to tame surging domestic food prices and “ensure adequate domestic availability at reasonable prices.”

Council of State makes digital wallet look even harder
Not quite. It will be paid for from taxes gathered from people who live in this country which includes expats. I see a link between the digital wallet and tax rule changes.

Insect infestation wood posts and flooring - solutions here in Thailand.
If the infestation is wood boring beetles and irf you can see the holes (evidenced by a little pile of sawdust below the entry hole), then you can use Chaindrite https://www.toagroup.com/en/products/wood-coatings/chaindrite/273/chaindrite Trouble is, you may not be able to see all the holes without doing some dismantling.

PM Offers Clarification on Landbridge Project
If I understand this landbridge idea correctly, a container ship docks at one end, unloads it's (200?) containers onto 200 trucks then moves away from the docks to make room for another to do the same. Then what does the ship do? He waits and waits for another cargo coming from the other end, but what cargo and where is it to be delivered. Probably a logistics nightmare.

Sodium-ion is coming - farewell lithium???
Would that be Windows or would that be Linux............ Never seen a battery coffee machine before. Wonder what would happen to the battery if the coffee got too hot. Never a problem with sodium cells. I nearly got a load of sodium batteries for my Solar many years ago but the Canadian company went bust first. You can get 'em here https://bridex.fujielectric.com/salt-water-battery
