  1. I was wondering when a Putin apologist would surface. Murdering civilians with missiles and drones would make most people Russiaphobic. Now that Putin has also weaponized food ( grain exports ) it will be interesting to see how the hungry react.
  2. I am wondering whether there will be an increase in crime statistics.
  3. Take up a sport. Are your strengths hand-eye co-ordination, or balance? Buy a scooter. You won't be bored in Thai traffic. Juggle 2 or 3 GF's, I guarantee life won't be dull.
  4. Tourists my aching butt. Olympic-grade euphemism. They are refugees - the wealthier ones. Not many Russians of military age want to be thrown into the meat grinder of Ukraine, presumably they are seeing the body bags coming back. I forget who said you can fool all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time. You can't fool all people all of the time.
  5. Permit me to doubt they would be genuine by either route.
  6. I suspect your karma will be getting bashed into a cripple, when you pick the wrong person to hustle.
  7. J&N Auto on one of the ring roads, Jimmy speaks good English. IME, mechanics farm out AC work to AC specialists.
  8. Thanks for giving the rest of us such a stellar reputation.
  9. Reminds me of the woman doing online shopping who phones an adult store. Woman: I want to buy a vibrator. Store: Certainly madam, which model would would you like? Woman: I want the red one on the wall. Store: Madam, that's our fire extinguisher.
  10. Sugar daddies usually require a quid pro quo, have you thought this through? My bet is on a troll post.
  11. IIRC naked photos are not allowed.
  12. I'll have to visit an optometrist. At first glance, I thought it was a dissertation on masturbatory activities. Maybe it is, and you are avoiding the mods with euphemisms.
  13. Perhaps posters who are not enamoured with your threads will start a GoFundMe page to buy you one.
  14. Boxers have retired by the age of 37 on average, beating up an old man in boxing terms is no achievement. Perhaps you guys should retire hurt too, cricket does allow that. Your posts are met with a dead bat, mine go straight through to the wicketkeeper.
  15. Les Darcy was not a world champion, although he did account for quite a few visiting Americans. The rest were. I did forget Jeff Horn as well. Tsyu was 35 yo when he fought Hatton, who was 27. Trash talk.
  16. Obviously you have never heard of Les Darcy, Lionel Rose, Jimmy Carruthers, Lester Ellis, Johnny Famechon, Jeff Fenech, and Kostya Tsyu. Australia currently has 4 world boxing champions. Your post is one of the dumbest I have seen on ASEAN.
  17. If they are not dumb before they step into the ring, they mostly are afterwards.
  18. I have had a look at LaTex. It seems to organize documents just like I used to. I wrote every technical report in a sequence Title - Introduction - Experimental design - Results and Discussion - Conclusions - References - Signature and Date. Graphics and tables were easy enough to insert along the way. Those days are well behind me, IIRC the last was 15 years ago. BTW, latex without the capitalizations makes the best foam mattresses around, much better than polyurethane. Tricky stuff though, getting the mattress off the mould after curing was a delicate operation. Latex was also used in the bucket seats of the Volkswagen Beetle. A mat of coconut fibre, spray with latex. Lay in the seat mould, cure for 20 minutes, and trim. Very comfortable seats, more durable than foam. Passed the Ford flex test with ease. Of course, Ford stuck with less expensive seat components.
  19. My GF eats frogs, I haven't tried them because I have seen where they grow them. I doubt the apparatus would work unless it brought water to the boil. Parasites like giardia IMO would be unaffected. It actually looks like a rotary evaporator to me, without the condenser.
  20. Can you explain why the OP can get no response out of MG? To me, that is questionable. I can't be bothered looking up the brands made solely in China to satisfy your carping.
  21. Sorry to disappoint you, I know nothing about LaTeX, and have only been aware of it since the post of yours I am quoting. All the phenomena you cite belong in the field of corrosion chemistry. A commonly used parameter there is the Langelier Index, a calculation made on the basis of pH and calcium hardness. A value of -5 means the water is highly corrosive, +5 a scale is deposited which protects against corrosion. And screws up heat transfer. It is not the full picture, however. Corrosion rates are also dependent on dissolved oxygen and anion content of the water. For example, steel will stay bright forever in distilled water with zero dissolved oxygen. OTOH, even with a high positive Langelier Index, steel will corrode rapidly in the presence of high levels of chloride. Soft water has its own problems when it comes to copper piping. Chloride is THE corrosion villain, and is ubiquitous in the environment. It will even cause stress corrosion cracking in stainless steel above 60 C. I once was at a corrosion conference with two giants of the field in Robert Baboian and Herb Townsend, who were locking horns over the validity of salt spray testing. A bit like watching a bull and a matador, academic disagreements can be ferocious. No ghosts, corrosion never sleeps.
