Is it a J7 Pro? If so the battery is built in, so it's non-repairable if it's a battery issue (planned obsolescence).  If it's a J7 with a battery, it's doubtful the battery is still available. Same thing happened to me; J7 Pro.  I ended up having to buy another phone.

It'd bother you more if it stopped mid flight.

Since when is Mexican food American?  Have the US appropriated their excellent cuisine too?

Yes, it's called Tex-Mex.

I guess Thailand must have appropriated Mexican food too, as they serve burritos in Tigglebitties.

Check that link above.  It gives a rundown of the "Five Best Fitness Centers And Gyms In Pattaya " has some good information. 

If he was about to board the plane to Singapore,  why wouldn't they just let him board and notify Singapore authorities he's on the way?

Of which are made of plastic.

I just read this so I could see how many laughing emoji's were at the end of the article.

There's another alternative available in the USA, not sure about Thailand you could try, Human Composting.  It takes about three months to fully compost a human body from what I've read.  It sounds a bit weird to me but I guess it's another option.

With 7 participants, and only 5 empty chambers, someone had to die. They made ît sound like a game. 

What I always thought how Russian Roulette was played; it's played with a revolver; one round is chambered; the chamber is spun; revolver is handed to the next participant; the trigger is pulled; repeat if necessary.

So any amount of people can play and the odds will always be the same, a 1 out 6 chance you'll soon be among the dearly departed.

However, who knows what kind of weapon was actually used in this case.

Was the rabies vaccine's approval pushed through the medical safety net? Has it been shown to be pretty much useless? Does it produce devastating side effects like myocarditis and heart failure? 

Maybe they should make all soi dogs wear a face mask.

The Nationality of the guy hasnt been stated , but had he been from any of the 193 other

What's funny is; if you click on the link from the Chaing Rai Times, it gives his nationality and surname. 

"Later she studied the production of silicone implants by herself and produced them for supply to her old customer base."

So it's just Tit for Tat to her old customer base.

"Wait until the official report comes out ".... yes, of course, I'm quite sure it'll be honest and accurate and not be worded in such a way as to cover certain people's backsides and pass blame elsewhere. 

When will that happen?  Aren't we still waiting on the official report for the Mountain B disaster.

Poor guy. Sounds like he didn't have a chance. 

Is there any mention of emergency power kicking in?  Once main power is lost, an emergency diesel generator should auto start providing emergency power and lighting.  The EDG is normally not located in the main engine room but in its own watertight compartment with its own fuel tank and the emergency switchboard. 

This is a small ship; so no telling where the EDG was located or it could possibly not have an EDG but emergency battery power.  Anyway, emergency power should have been available, at least for awhile.

That's not an argument, it's a contradiction.

Take the lowlife down to the nearest Muay Thai gym and put him in the ring for a round and tell his fighter opponent what he did. Some swift justice needed here.

Better yet, take him to Boyztown, bring him in a bar and tell the Boys and LB's what he did.  Swift justice of a different kind will be administered there.

How about FTX? I hear it's fairly cheap now.

Red and Black are common colors for DC.  Red is normally positive,  black is normally negative.  The ground can be any color and I have seen gray for ground.  As most are saying here, a simple continuity test will confirm which wire goes to which pin.

They will never replenish at the same rate, non farmed trees are.

I agree with lb3.  The northern USA had lots of tree farms for decades.  The tree farms were well managed, all scrub brush cleared and removed and ground into landscaping  mulch and numerous fire breaks through out the farm.  When the trees were harvested, the farm was cleared of stumps (again, ground into mulch) and the farm replanted to be harvested again in 20 to 25 years.

The majority of farmed trees went to the paper industry where the trees were made into paper bags (remember them), paper straws, paper containers etc.

Que up the tree huggers.  They basically shut down an entire industry that was in a sense, eco-friendly and led to the creation of "Big Plastic".  Plastic bags, straws, styrofoam containers, bottles,etc.,etc.,etc.

So what happens to all the nicely managed tree farms, who's going to take of them?  After years and years of neglect mother nature steps in and decides she has to do it herself, the only way she knows how; wild fires.  The 2020 wild fires alone dumped 140 million tons of CO2 into the atmosphere, along with tons of other pollutants.

Tree farms do replenish at a rate that is sustainable.  There were farms in Northern California, Washington and Oregon that were on thier second and even third harvest.
