Yes thanks all but computer viruses etc and clean and repair on Total AV and others there is only an option for paypal and no credit card and have noticed this a lot recently???
why don't you migrate to linux? it's free and you don't need any AV baloney (says the guy who was a 'Windows Pro' and hasn't used it for donkies years cos I realised it's just 'consumer carp')
PS use ublock origin as a browser plugin and you don't even see ads on 'crappy websites' nudge nudge wink wink

We have the MG ZS EV (฿949K)
that strikes me as a bloody fortune when you can get a new MG 5 (which is a good looking car IMO and will drive a lot better than an SUV) for ฿585k
at how many miles will the EV actually be cheaper than the MG 5? quite a lot I would have thought as the price difference is £8500 worth of petrol to begin with!!! (for the UK punters, dunno if you're a Brit lol)

Average about ฿8 per kWh,
wow that is cheap! must admit never been convinced by an EV even though I have been looking for a car over here (they all seem to be overpriced garbage and/or boring auto).......how much did the thing cost in the first place though? (will tootle off to the EV thread lol)

hi mr gecko, what do you think of the argument that the FED are raising rates NOT to control inflation but to try and save the USD?
PS I honestly believe we've had hyperinflation for years but they just lie about the numbers lol.....look at house prices for example

but for now the USD is a currency that is too big to fail and a collapse would be a catastrophic event for the entire planet.
that's what they said about the banks and look at the mess it has created now.....what mess? well why are half the eastern world fed up with the US and deciding to create there own 'monetary systems' outside of USD, swift etc.......

Almost 100% this year alone. I said before that it will reach 50k very soon, and 220k in the next 2.5 years
ok soros, is your crystal ball relying on the 'fed pivot' or continued IR increases? which will almost certainly bankrupt some cuntries (not that they ain't bankrupt already eh lol)

For all the doomsday about how horrible the US economy is under Biden it certainly appears to me that the vast majority of Americans are doing just fine, living in nice houses, driving nice cars, going on vacations, dining out often, house values at record highs, unemployment at record lows, wages creeping up, and on and on. Sure there is inflation and that is a problem but I really don't observe the doom and gloom and the sky is falling.
the stuff I see on rumble and twitter etc ie not the wealthy controlled BS media you get on telievision, the US is the most divided cuntry in the world right now, is being taken over by lardy woke eejits and folks in the government who are solely intent on 'raping the nation' and incurring as much debt as possible.......the UK is the same, will be lucky not to be begging to the IMF in less than another year and the EU isn't far behind......Disclaimer; I hold a UK passport but don't normally live there cos of the state of the absolute hovel....

Which country with money would loan it to Russia?
you don't need to borrow money when you can be 'mostly self-sufficient'.........I think you're falling for the western 'money is debt' narrative sir

Moscow relies on energy revenue, last year around 11.6 trillion roubles ($146 billion), to fund government spending
whereas the EU and the US economies rely on the printing press and monetizing debt in a graph that appears to be going parabolic, that's working well innit? ????

Confused much?
i'm not confused about the fact that the EU and the US trying to 'price fix' and 'sock it to Putin brah' has totally and utterly failed.....
how's about you brah, think you can go around the world telling other folks how to 'manipulate prices'??

Did you actually read the article. Russia's volume has recovered because it it offering deep discounts on the price of its oil. Is that your idea of not working?
errrr yeah, it proves the 'unipolar world lovers' can't fix prices? OR do you have a different idea on so called 'open markets' and/or 'price fixing'???
