  1. Elon is a lost cause. How did he crash so hard. It wasn't an interview with Trump is was such a stupid talk from I've listened to. Elon has no credentials to be asking a presidential nominee for an interview. It's looking more like he bought x to have power like Murdock did not to save freedom of speech. This is the right time for a woman president, black or half breed at that. This election will be decided by the women and youth! thankfully not you old white uneducated dinosaurs.
  2. Whatever his punishment is I would expect to the same if I do this to any Thai person on my next visit . Beware Thailand. This is a legal can of worms. Taxi drivers that deny a ride a big slap.
  3. How can the original article and the daily Mail one be so different? News reporting these days is in shambles.
  4. The last 20 months or 20 years in the kingdom of Thailand politics and Boss moves would make a good movie. Include the German COVID times and a few soapys.
  5. Any president would be lucky to have such intellectual advice.
  6. Would you take off your shirt and shoes? Man I don't read AN for 2 weeks because I was disgusted with the dissolution of the FF party, and a thaskin PM and throat slitting and sons killing fathers and this. Tell me he didn't get rejected by a cow!! This isn't called milking the cow is it?
  7. Hard for me to listen to jr voice. 70 is to old. We need an 64 age limit for first day in office. No 2nd term if over 64. He is a nut case.
  8. I was with you until you confusingly brought Biden into comparison in this Thai mess somehow.
  9. Wife says that mushroom is a very prized type. We forage here in USA. In fact after 45 days no rain we are starting to get some. Mushroom season begins in earnest in late Aug after some big rains. Her brother in law finds them every year. Same SECRET place on moms land.
  10. Messing around with solar is a benefit of living in Thailand. Here in USA metering buyback rates so low, component prices much higher. Solar companies want to profit so much. Fir kicks a couple months ago I went ahead and had a door to door solar salesman cook up a system for me. He did see my monthly power usage but not day night use. A different guy came by a few days later saying it was 45k USD for 9 kw system. This did include a new roof. I haven't got a quote on a new roof but I guess it could be 12-15k$. It was a micro inverter system using USA made panels. The deal was I pay 115$/no and after 20 years the system was mine. I guess he could tell by my questions he didn't have an eager buyer and never did his follow up call. I wasn't real impressed by the software that took Google roof image and put 2 panels behind a chimney. He said the final version wouldn't make that mistake. I see lots of panels put on east and west facing roofs. Just do to the roof layout. Plus the optimum angle here is 33.9. facing South. actually adjusting the angle from 19-50 degrees is max efficient. Don't quote those angles. Here they hardly ever use angle brackets. They just go with roof slope which varies from 4-8/12 roof pitch. I guess due to wind and snow and ease of install and maximum watts. I see lots of installs where neighbors tree shades it much of the day. These solar companies are crooks as far as I'm concerned. Power bill in July was 14,000 baht. Increase of 3 k over June ? The highest ever. It was hot and maybe using air con to much, or Tennant has a grow, or the new hot tub but heater is off for summer. If I do solar I would want to cut out the salesman commissions and high profit somehow.
  11. Yes harvesting all is like taking an apple from the tree it doesn't harm the mycelium. This is how monks and many this think. No way will they stand up for the politicians stealing power.
  12. Stopped at a light behind a Tesla cyber truck today. What a boring set of tail lights come stock. And just fugly looking. I will stick with gas for another decade
  13. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russias-lipetsk-region-comes-under-massive-drone-attack-governor-says-2024-08-09/
  14. Ukraine, powered by Western arms, stuns Russia in cross-border assault https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/08/08/ukraine-kursk-russia-occupied-war/
  15. Temu does have super low prices. I looked after the super bowl ad but never bought anything. Prices so low shipped I thought it can't be real . Some might be crap but it shows you how much profit American companies have been making for their made in China products these last 25 years.
  16. Airfield at Lipetsk, Russia near the incursion has had massive and successful UAV strike. Many fires. Lots of secondary explosions of several sizes. Fires blazing over a wide expanse. Video is posted on several early morning telegram chats. Here is a post for you non telegram folks. https://eadaily.com/en/news/2024/08/09/lipetsk-was-subjected-to-a-massive-drone-attack
  17. One thought is to keep pouring pride and joy up so that he keeps sending his best air defenses there to get deconstructed. Just lost a rare new S500. It would be a big PR lose for pootin. The train line is now in use and it's hard to knock it out for long periods. But supposedly there is a real shortage of locomotive engines due to sanctions. Slava Ukraine.
  18. Telegram is where we get uncensored info on the war. It is a bold move. Several countries including the US have said Ukraine is a sovereign country and it's their right to attack the aggressors in their country. Strikers and I hope to soon see a Javelin tank kill on Russian soil.
  19. Forget about F35's. Ever!!! “We, as a sovereign nation, have our own way of developing our politics and theocracy. . Is what he meant.
  20. Great news. Ukraine controls the gas distribution center and are going for the NPP. Then they can shut off the power to a large part of industry. Russia has to pull troops from somewhere. F16 are at the ready. The Crimea bridge will be falling in August.
  21. Covod is still a thing. Wife and I had it July , it knocked her down for 7 days. Me about 5.
  22. All this wasted time talking about race. So is she 25% black, 50% Indian, 25% Irish? Most of us would be surprised by a ancestry DNA test. All this talk is to distract the trumpeters from the real issues that matter to them. So many still claim their finances were better under trump. Only way is if they sold trump souvenirs.
  23. What will be the consequences for 4 year overstay?
