  1. Article in the Economist said he was an IT support person and had access to basically everyone's computer. He also posted them on a Discord server to flex to his friends https://www.economist.com/united-states/2023/04/10/a-leak-of-files-is-one-of-americas-worst-intelligence-breaches-in-a-decade https://www.economist.com/united-states/2023/04/13/america-arrests-the-suspect-behind-mass-intelligence-leaks
  2. But when you sold bitcoin what spendable currency did you buy? US dollars? Government debt is not meant to be paid off, it's not like a mortgage payment. The economy grows and expands and the debt in a percentage term is reduced
  3. This is the answer. USD isn't going to collapse despite what the alarmist's say
  4. It Works, Thanks Charlie
  5. Why are you so worried about an unelected person's private information?
  6. Yes indeed, a photo outside of a Florida golf club shows the coming storm, idiots one and all
  7. How do I copy a media video from Reddit or Twitter into a post?
  8. *Deleted post edited out* Real crimes like the consensual BJ Bill Clinton received from a more than willing aid, and the Republicans lost their minds?
  9. This is the best way, I moved out of the village after the wife went to the monkey house. I then systematically stripped the house/shop of anything that could be sold All the good furniture came with me to a house in town, that was then given to my housekeeper for services rendered. When I closed the door for the last time it was a shell. She got a letter on the kitchen counter, my son and I got a flight out, never to return. Life, for us anyway, goes on.
  10. JosephH. If your friend can produce the paper trail to show he paid for the house he has a good case. Get a good lawyer and take it to court, BUT be prepared for a long long battle. The Thai court system is fair to Thais and foreigners alike but it is extremally slow, I had a straightforward divorce case with my ex wife claiming nonsense amounts of money. It took approximately 2 years to work through the court system until a judgment was delivered, in my favor. If your friends wife gets an aggressive lawyer or she doesn't want to cooperate it can take many many years. You go to court with all your material and lawyer, everything in order and your opponent doesn't show or requests more information, come back in 4-6 months. Prepare for slow slow It took me 4 years to get a judgment on property that was seized by the police as "proceeds of crime" by my convicted ex wife. I won As to the child custody, something seems very odd. A formal letter is sent to the parties as to the date and time of the court case, was this received by your friend? When I did my child custody case because my ex was now in prison, the case was considered a paper exercise, no issues. But a letter is sent to both parents so they can be at the court to argue their case. My ex was brought is shackles and jumpsuit from the prison, not a good look in a custody case. The judge did look at both sides very carefully and I was deemed the responsible parent and was given 100% Parental Power @Gecko123 is giving you good advice, some of the others are not. Your friend can win, but how much time and money for a lawyer does he want to invest into his quest however? In my case, Divorce 100% worth it Child custody 100 % worth it Property judgement case, It cost me more to win than the property was worth, but I had the western mindset of this ain't right and I'm going to fight it. 0%
  11. I had 25,000 liters of storage next to my house in Issan, I thought it might take weeks or even months to fill. One good downpour of about 6 hours filled everything to the brim. I did have eves troughs funneling all the water from the entire roof into the storage though
  12. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=lazada+snake+deterent&atb=v369-6&ia=web Lazada does sell some dedicated snake repellant
  13. Your wrong https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/2/16/mapping-where-every-country-stands-on-the-russia-ukraine-war It's from an approved source of your favorite, al jazeera Why is a New Zealand citizen so worried about what the US gives to Ukraine?
  14. They seem to think so. russia constantly probes the airspace over Alaska and northern Canada with long range bombers and there's also the Naval version, russian fishing trawlers anyone?
  15. This is the right answer As an industrial radiographer welds are examined by IR192 (Iridium) gamma sources, as above picture. Extremely thick pieces, 4" thick and above are examined by CO60 (cobalt) sources Cesium 137 is NOT used for radiography. We use it as a signaling source for x-ray crawlers And it is used as a measurement device to see where the level of coal is in a storage bunker. ie power plant or a mine It is very long lasting, and extremly penetrating in small amounts That's this one in this article and was the use of the one in Australia that recently went missing and was found.
  16. I wonder if he will just shut it down like the paper he owned in the UK He is a businessman and if the numbers don't add up he may walk He has no loyalty to anyone but himself
  17. I didn't go to any other country, I went Home. 27 years in Thailand while I was working in the oil patch. Got married, had a child, and then the wheels came off. Wife decided she wanted to "be rich" and started selling ya ba while I was doing FIFO in Australia. Was at home 1 day on time off and the about 30 police showed up and hauled her away. For a month or two it was extremely stressful. She got sentenced to 25 years to life. That was in 2013 Her cousin became my nanny and I continued to work in Oz Tried to move in March of 2020 but Covid screwed that up. Grew more and more unhappy with thailand and when I retired from work myself and my son moved back to Canada. I want my son to grow up in Canada and go to school in Canada He loves it here and is happy which is the most important thing for me. I wanted to go home and not be an old man sitting in the food court in a mall in thailand, like I see many doing. The only thing I miss about thailand is the cheap and fresh fruit, but the meat I can get in Canada is much better. It's been 1.5 years now and I'm glad we made the move. Don't have to mess with visa's anymore and am getting my government pension and various handouts that I qualify for.
  18. Well, I'm sure the relevant leaders in the west will get your sternly worded message and act accordingly
  19. Get an offshore bank account to deposit your working salary into, transfer into Thailand living expenses, I used to do 10,000USD per transfer. No tax obligations anywhere. Did this for 25 years of my residence in Thailand with no blow back Standard Bank Offshore is inexpensive to set up
  20. I was raised on raw milk as a child. We milked our own cows and the milk went into stainless steel milk machines and then into the fridge, in rural northern Alberta, Canada First time I tasted store bought milk I thought it tasted like water No adverse affects. I would not seek out or buy raw milk from outside sources as you can never tell their handling of the milk. And most definitely not in Thailand where the cold chain is problematic, among other things Up to you as they say, but I wouldn't
  21. Every fridge I've bought in Thailand had wheels on it already. Just grab the sides and pull, easy for cleaning behind it.
  22. Nordstream 2 was hydro tested and ready for service, It was denied operating permits by Demark before the war happened. It might have had a very small load on the line, about 30 psi is what I have seen used elsewhere, but nowhere near operating pressure. The pictures of the sea bubbling is from Nordstream 1 which was at operating pressure, about 1000psi As to who blew them up, I wonder if we'll ever get the truth
  23. Getting 500kg of high explosive is not possible without strong state back up. Go to any hard rock mining site and they have literally tons of explosive on hand
  24. I want to die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather, not yelling and screaming like his passengers. Old Joke.
