  1. Pattaya has sewage treatment plants. But they don't run all of their street runoff into treatment plants. What do you think most beach side cities do with their street runoff ? Shoot it into outer space ?
  2. There could be a niche use for this in a specific area. But of course its an insane idea to change any structural traffic issues.
  3. Some ppl seem to think it is easy to make money when you decide to go criminal. This is just not true. All of that work and investment that this guy put in , is gone. And he's on the run. Sure. He probably ran off with some revenue. But that doesn't mean he didnt have input costs up until the last day.
  4. There's a lot less of these types in Pattaya than there was in the early 2000's.
  5. Wouldn't want the whole economy to sieze up because half of the working age male population is in jail bc of drunk driving
  6. That's ecouraging. I like Thailand the way it is.
  7. Can foreigners be drivers for the apps ? how to they police it
  8. I like it that way and hope it stays like that.
  9. I doubt it. You'll get arrested. Just like in the western nanny police states. I sure dont like it when Thailand adopts this bs from the west
  10. Unreal. Glad I enjoyed it when it was legal. Vape pens are illegal too. But weed isn't. Thai Boomers for ya
  11. Sounds like a good time to me.
  12. Can someone please convert it 4. 1 million dollars. Lucky <deleted>. He's got me beat by about 3 million. And he didn't have to work for it. Life is about being in the right place at the right time. Nothing else. Effort doesn't matter. Discipline doesn't matter.
  13. Not really. The law either means something or it doesn't. These app companies have zero profits and only exist as long as reality never catches up to Wall Street. They are providing a service at less than cost. Selling dollars for 75 cents. When these companies have to exist on a real profit, the old regional way will probably win out. Uber will soon join an ugly but exclusive club: Unprofitable companies worth more than $50 billion https://www.cnbc.com/2019/04/27/uber-one-of-only-3-unprofitable-companies-worth-more-than-50-billion.html
  14. Sanctions were and always are designed to cause a currency crisis and balance of payment crisis. As seen in places like Iran and Venezuela. Which is in turn, supposed degrade the military. These kinds of sanctions are a huge expense for Europe and weren't supposed to be merely a nuisance. https://orientalreview.org/2022/04/04/why-did-poland-tell-the-truth-about-the-failure-of-anti-russian-sanctions/
  15. The sanctions were supposed to cause a currency crisis, a banking crisis and a balance of payments crisis. None of that happened. A business cycle recession isn't a big deal.
  16. The Russian economy is doing fine. There is no other explanation.
  17. There is no draft conscription. Just reserve call ups. The US did the same in the middle of the Iraq war. And its not a cartoon Putins war. The world is far more complicated than that if you have the intellectual interest to look
  18. If you look at the laws on the continent, it really is the Amsterdam of Asia. They didn't want it to be that way. But there's no avoiding it now.
  19. Ive never had a problem with bike taxis. I like it when they break the law to get me to my destination. Like riding on the sidewalk
  20. This is the proper technique Simon 5. Ride with proper body positioning, balance, and technique. Don't be a hassle. Hold on to the riders' torsos around the abdomen securely but don't suffocate them. Keep all of your weight centered on the seat and try to keep still — but don't be too stiff. Don't shift your backside around. Determine the operators' neutral riding positions, then hold your thighs firmly around theirs just as riders are told to grip the tank with their knees and keep their arms relaxed yet in control https://www.motopinas.com/motorcycle-feature/how-to-legally-039-ride-in-tandem-039-properly.html
  21. Maybe he was 16 at the time. Don't you remember those days ? Just a little bit of friction is all it took
  22. Get your lame put downs in before resurfacing commences.
  23. The 74 year old was probably far more drunk than the driver
