Generationally different @captain_shane but this is the way Ukraine are operating, I am sure any intelligent person knows the quote but it is eerily correct and similar to the current conflict from 1940 this statement, these guys will not give up whether or not Presidents or Vice Presidents from influential countries threaten them especially muppets and puppets like Trump and Vance, the Americans are not stupid people in general so they will realise that at some point and get it that world security is not just a European problem as Dictator Trump likes to hail to his fiend Putler. "We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender." Twice as many Russians have been killed in this conflict, more civilians in the Ukraine given the Putler's bombing policy on schools and hospitals. It is a Sht show and the presidents of both influential countries need to step down and let someone with more common sense handle it before they start WWIII or go into business together.

Hahaha - nah I wish I was have set up some AI stuff before and getting more difficult to tell sometimes if you are talking to a real person rather than an AI, can still usually get it even in anonymous forum posts when the banter gets good 😉

Nah it was the Putin puppet photographs that convinced me 🤣

Hahaha I just saw your previous post definitely not a Russian AI bot. Directing all the nukes at them might be a bit extreme but would definitely resolve the problem as long as we don't get fallout in Thailand 🤣

Are you a Russian AI forum bot as what I am hearing is you are condoning this Invasion and Genocide?

The main problem with your statement is Russian people do not want to fight half of them are defecting to Phuket! As for your estimation on deaths on the Ukrainian side please see below I don't think Ukraine are doing too bad if you look at the stats and bad luck to anyone that lives in Phuket and has to put up with the Russian defectors. Ukraine are a hundred times more committed to retaining their country than Russian citizens other than Putin want to take it from them, that makes more of a difference than Tanks, Planes, Bombs or Guns. The only thing Russia are succeeding at is killing more Ukrainian civilians than Ukraine do Top Work!!! Russia has lost around 90,000 to 140,000 soldiers with 500,000 to 700,000 wounded since the war's start. Ukraine has suffered over 65,000 military deaths, 380,000 wounded, and around 12,500 civilian fatalities.

I very much doubt any British Prime-minister will need more from the US other than their already mutual working practices in major sectors.

Won't happen if you look at Ukraine's resilience with a bit of luck Trump will be out of power or one of those kids might get an accurate shot and save the world!! To any Secret Service on here that was a flippant comment and not serious in any way, I am from the UK and we have very strict WOKE laws on Social media

We colonialised your country with less! Happy independence day for this year 🤪

I can't last remember celebrating a US independence day in the UK

Would be too easy we used to own you anyways

Ooops you guys are militarily easy the world leaders World War I (1914-1918): U.S. failure to establish sustainable peace frameworks and ineffective military strategies led to unresolved European tensions. World War II (1939-1945): Misjudging Japan’s resilience and failure to establish long-term peace strategies fueled the Cold War. Korean War (1950-1953): The war ended in a stalemate, failing to reunify Korea and leaving the peninsula divided. Vietnam War (1955-1975): The U.S. failed to prevent South Vietnam’s collapse, resulting in a humiliating defeat. Gulf War (1990-1991): Failure to remove Saddam Hussein allowed him to remain in power and set the stage for future conflict. Iraq War (2003-2011): Faulty intelligence led to prolonged instability, sectarian violence, and the rise of ISIS. Afghanistan War (2001-2021): Despite initial success, poor nation-building and a chaotic withdrawal led to the Taliban’s return to power.

Advice from an American on successful wars how Ironic, Vietnam, Afghanistan the list goes on

That's BS the US isn't the be all and end all in the world I hate to burst your bubble. The same as WWII until someone bombs you again you won't see the flaw's in your actions.

Gone off with pride standing up to the bullying he got in that meeting IMO

I doubt anyone on the front line fighting a war for 3 years would give a flying F about what Donald Trump thinks, they are a fairly resilient bunch these Ukrainians the US could learn a lot! If they stopped sending money to Ukraine it wouldn't stop them fighting the war and many other countries in the world would probably fill the US presidents gap between his ears. Also a kick in the nuts for Donald Trumps business skills when he can't get his hands on all Ukraine's precious metals. So is Zelensky worried? Possibly concerned some assistance might dry up, but America aren't the powerhouse they used to be gaps can be filled apart from those between Trumps ears.

It is not derogatory at all you farang

Before aligning with Trump, Vance was a vocal critic, even comparing him to Adolf Hitler during the 2016 election cycle. Goes to show how fickle the people running the US are!!!

He has been fighting a war for the last 3 years that he has been very close to, so to take cr4p from Vance who probably couldn't even shadow box himself I'd have called him a bitch too

He was right with the Vance comment he is a bitch under the coattails of Trump, a little Trump robot!

Yeah was a beauty this meeting watched it last night. They were talking about stuff that should not have been in front of cameras, Zelensky was made to look like a beggar and degraded in my opinion. Classic Trump in front of the cameras ever since his Apprentice days, but Vance what a dick head he was just sticking his oar in to escalate the confrontation.

You tubers are generally full of it and will pull any stunt to get more subscriptions and views with a few exceptions. Fortunately we can all choose the content we digest, I will watch a couple of videos from a you tuber if I think they might be interesting then if I realise they are actually a knob, just block it so you tube doesn't send me any more suggestions for them.

I think many viable options have already been discussed in this thread if you read back to achieve even cheaper what your requirements sound like. I am not sure why this is a shock to everyone Microsoft are maintaining two different Chat offerings Skype and Teams that apart from a couple of functions operate exactly the same and compete against each other. Meta (Facebook) have their own messaging solution but also own Whatsapp which has most of the same functionality so I would be very surprised even given the large number of Whatsapp users that merging those has not been discussed as a company strategy as a single messaging platform.

I think the BG's are probably quite resilient they will figure out a Line option in my experience

Sorry for posting straight out of ChatGPT everyone (just want to share the info found) I am looking for a solution myself, I may have slightly different requirements to other people with the UK static number, but I think I am definitely going to try Sonetel later today after an AI (which isn't always correct) comparison 🙂 TextNow Pros: Affordable: The paid plan, which provides a static UK number, is $9.99/month (about $120/year), making it relatively affordable for a virtual UK number. Free and Paid Options: You can get a UK number with a paid plan, but the app also offers a free version with ads (although it may not include a UK number). Cross-Platform: TextNow works on multiple platforms, including smartphones, tablets, and computers. You can make and receive calls and texts from any internet-connected device. Unlimited Calling: With the paid plan, you get unlimited calling to US/Canada, which can be a bonus if you make calls to North America in addition to the UK. Texting: Allows unlimited texting within the supported regions (like the US and Canada). No Need for a SIM: Since it’s a VoIP service, it doesn’t rely on your Thai SIM card. It works over Wi-Fi or mobile data. Cons: Ads on Free Plan: If you use the free plan, you’ll have ads, which may not be desirable for all users. You need to pay for the $9.99/month plan to remove ads and get a UK number. Limited International Calling: Calls to countries outside the US/Canada (like the UK) are not free and can incur additional costs, depending on the destination. Availability of UK Numbers: UK numbers may not always be available on the free plan, so you would need the paid plan to select and use a UK number. Limited Features for Free Plan: The free version lacks some advanced features like better call forwarding, voicemail, and professional call management options, which are available in the paid plan. Sonetel Pros: Extremely Cheap: Sonetel offers UK virtual numbers starting at $1/month, which is incredibly affordable for a static UK number. Simple Setup: The process to get a UK number and start receiving calls is straightforward. No need for complex configuration. Affordable International Calls: Sonetel provides very low-cost international calling rates, so it’s a good option for users who may need to make international calls from their UK number. Forwarding to Any Device: You can forward calls from your UK number to any phone or device (including your Thai number) via the Sonetel platform. No Ads: There are no ads in the service, even at the lowest price tier. Global Reach: Sonetel allows you to use your UK number globally, so you can forward calls or use it as a business or personal number from anywhere. Cons: Limited Features in the Basic Plan: For $1/month, you only get basic functionality like receiving calls. To access additional features like call forwarding, voicemail, and enhanced call management, you will need to upgrade to higher plans. No Texting: Sonetel doesn’t offer SMS or text messaging functionality, which could be a limitation if you need to send texts to your contacts in the UK or other regions. Limited Customer Support: The lower-tier plans may have limited customer support options, which could be an issue if you need assistance with setup or issues. Basic User Interface: The interface might be less intuitive and streamlined compared to other services like Google Voice or Skype.
