Elon Musk - time to return to your Office at Tesla
Paul52 replied to TorquayFan's topic in Political Soapbox
Now why would anyone waste their time doing that with you? You’re too much of a lost cause. From reading your posts, everyone can see that you only accept and believe in ultra right wing conspiracies and lies. -
Any Jewish people in Thailand noticing local hostilities?
Paul52 replied to wasabi's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Skull cap, star of Israel tattooed in a prominent place, signing Hava Nagila, saying “shalom” to everyone he meets? Joking aside, you’re right. Just look like a very wide and diverse mix of people of Middle Eastern/Mediterranean/European origin. -

You would need to be very blind, dumb and ignorant to believe that ever happened. Since its formation in the 90s the SVR has operated the same as the KGB to undermine, weaken and subvert Western interests, especially American. The only thing that’s held Putin back from expanding his empire further west into Eastern Europe is NATO, hence the reason Putin supports his useful idiots like Trump with that goal. Good that Putin’s army has had the c**p fragged out of it in Ukraine. The Biden administration’s plan worked very effectively there. The plan was never to help Ukraine defeat Russia, just greatly weaken it to the point that the Russian army couldn’t threaten NATO countries for a very long time. The Cold War never ended because the Russians never stopped and they never will.

12-Year-Old in Critical Condition After Vaping for Two Years
Paul52 replied to snoop1130's topic in Isaan News
It depends whether the policeman was importing the vape products, ie, going across the border and bringing them back into Thailand. If he was doing that then he was breaking the law, if he bought them in Thailand, then no. Vaping in Thailand is not illegal, only importing vape products is illegal. https://coconuts.co/bangkok/news/no-vaping-and-vapes-are-not-illegal-in-thailand-heres-why/ -
12-Year-Old in Critical Condition After Vaping for Two Years
Paul52 replied to snoop1130's topic in Isaan News
The are no laws to enforce regarding vaping in Thailand: https://coconuts.co/bangkok/news/no-vaping-and-vapes-are-not-illegal-in-thailand-heres-why/ It’s illegal to import vape products but corruption and mafia involvement (we all know who are the biggest mafia) means there are more than enough vape products coming into Thailand to meet the demand.

Thaksin Heads to Narathiwat for Key Security Talks
Paul52 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Did he start it? I thought the separatist movement and armed conflict started before he was PM. Like all of these tough guy, ultra nationalist, populist leaders, his approach didn’t improve things. -
Why is AI so goddam awful? Because it’s just that, it’s AI not AGI (Artificial General Intelligence). AI uses LLM (Large Language Models), which has its limits and its flaws. AGI will be more advanced than human intelligence. It will be smarter than the smartest person alive or that has ever lived. And it’s coming.

Bored of Bangkok... Any advice to an alternative place to live?
Paul52 replied to kingofallasians's topic in Bangkok
It does sounds incredibly expensive. 1 gram would be an about teaspoonful at the most. $4 for the whole cake would be cheap. $1 a slice/scoop would be pricey but ok-ish. -
Pai's Deportation of International Musician Sparks Outcry
Paul52 replied to webfact's topic in Chiang Mai News
Absolute nonsense. It was OTT and unnecessary. Waste of time and resources (immigration and the courts). Dumb stupidity. Typical ill thought out response that you see here (a bit like your passive aggressive post). A slap on the wrist and warned that any further reoccurrence would result in more severe action would have been fair and proportionate and more than sufficient- 122 replies

The West’s DEI Obsession is Its Own Undoing – Can Britain Break Free?
Paul52 replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I think you’ll find that descent down the slippery slope started a long long time before DEI. The roots of that decline go back to at least the 1950’s and arguably way before that. Trade union relations, under investment, wrong investment, insufficient infrastructure investment outside of the south east, incompetence, mismanagement, under investment in education, wrong focus and constant change in education policies and priorities are largely, but not exclusively, the root causes of that descent down the slippery slope and has very very little to do with DEI. But hey, don’t let me spoil your ignorance. -
Typical vile response from a scouse scaly.

Were you being deliberately ironic? Have Americans finally leaned about irony?

Thailand Enforces Burning Ban to Combat PM2.5 Pollution
Paul52 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Some but not as much as you think and suggest. Check the wind direction and speed. The burning that happens in Thailand will have a greater effect, and is where the Thais should focus, ie, clean their own house before they start complaining about their neighbours. -
Gemini is a very low bar for comparing AI models. ChatGPT is the leader. DeepSeek is actually a line for line copy of OpenAI’s ChatGPT. When DeepSeek was asked what AI model it is (frontier model) it said it was created by OpenAI based on the GPT-4 architecture. DeepSeek also just suffered a large-scale cyberattack raising questions about how much work the Chinese put into making it secure and limiting vulnerability to it being manipulated by malicious bad actors

Biden pardons Fauci, Miley and Jan 6 committee staffers!
Paul52 replied to riclag's topic in Political Soapbox
In progressive true democracies where they have a credible legal system and the rule of law, that would be a very reasonable thing to believe, but in the USA, it most definitely ain’t. -
Chiang Mai Tackles PM2.5 Pollution with Ambitious Five-Year Strategy
Paul52 replied to snoop1130's topic in Chiang Mai News
Vietnam isn’t contributing to the problem, at least not significantly. Cambodia maybe, but not affecting Chiang Mai. Laos probably a lot, but not as much as the Thais. -
Chiang Mai Tackles PM2.5 Pollution with Ambitious Five-Year Strategy
Paul52 replied to snoop1130's topic in Chiang Mai News
As far as I’m aware, that already exists. As with most things in Thailand, it’s the enforcement that’s the problem. It’s just a talking shop for “face”. No intention of tackling the root cause of the problem. -

Yep, they knocked it into the long grass again. Probably one where some farmer is burning his fields right now. -
Trending:The world is waking up to the Woke Progressives
Paul52 replied to riclag's topic in Political Soapbox
Not in the USA. There is basically just one singular party with two wings labelled “GOP” and “Dem”. Those who don’t want to join “The Party” run as independents, and are thus marginalised, mostly ignored and viewed with little importance and relevance. IMO, a democracy in name only. -

Mark Zuckerberg’s Call for More ‘Masculine Energy’ Misses the Mark

(MASLD)A growing health concern you shouldnt ignore.
Paul52 replied to CharlieH's topic in Health and Medicine
I don’t think it is, not in the slightest. Did you read the reply above? Very good and important information being proactively shared by health professionals. I think it’s fine if the health professionals providing the information want to put a link to their hospital, but they’re not saying you can only go there. Obviously, readers are free to choose any hospital they like. Too obvious for you?
