And where exactly are you getting the info from? I'd love to see a link for that

Thai justice system strikes again. How many times do we see these stories of repeat offenders killing people, burning down family homes, stealing etc. Just. Give a Wai and fruit basket and your good to go.

Are you on the police force working the case?

Not sure why you think it was a deposit when the article says it was in the dispenser either way it doesn't matter, the guy didnt take it and turned it in. Good on him

Yes there is. Google or reading is not your strong suit http://www.thailawforum.com/database1/Treaty-of-China.html

They were targeting the father for money not the student. The baffling thing is the father blow off the contact for a day or 2 not believing his daughter was kidnapped even after receiving pics showing her with the kidnappers. I would not want to live the rest of my life knowing I helped get my child killed due to my inaction

I may be mistaken but VOA's can't be extended

Not sure what the resort owner has to do with this story but they put him right in the middle of it without cause.

Not sure why your replying to me about extradition. I think my comment was pretty clear

I already answered you. If you don't like it then move on.

Nope, I just know how they operate. Everyone thinks they're covered for everything when in reality they have exclusions and exception to many things. Most people like yourself think your covered for everything until tragedy happens and you learn the truth.

You hope it does but won't know unless you actually had a similar accident

It's for a medical transport. He would need a full med staff and equip on a medical grade aircraft.

Im curious about the Thai woman mentioned that was suspected of being involved. Not to much detail on her. I wonder why?

The interrogation by Thai police is nothing compared to what the Chinese police will do. You may never hear from them again and I would be surprised if China sent them back to Thailand

I find it interesting that they continue to say the actress was extorted and paid the money when in reality she didn't pay, one of the boys with her paid the money. He even came back to Thailand and gave an interview explaining the stop, what actually happen and that he paid the extortion money. The girl just got the publicity on her social media account for better impact.

I guess you don't know what "appear intelligent" means?

You're correct and in my opinion the news agencies here almost worthless as they never investigate and follow up to the end of any of these criminal situations in an effective manner to actually show the public what the final outcome is. I guess they spend too much time trying to use words out of context so they appear to be intelligent

Here's 1 of many articles https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/07/mueller-testifies-russia-blackmail-leverage-trump.html

Your loving some Trump there aren't you

Block size in this situation is not a major factor as it's not load bearing. The key here is make sure you use block tie straps from the existing posts to new block to ensure a strengthened tie in and prevent any sideways movement. Then make sure you use a lintel over the door. Those to things will eliminate any side movement to the new wall.

Good to know the AN Police are hard at work judging the relevance of a post on an open forum!

Not sure how you think the moral issues you raised have anything to do with AI being a marketing gimmick or not

No this thread is about whether AI exists or a marketing ploy. Your off to the races on moral and ethical grounds which may be valid down the road but not to whether it's real and exists or not.

Seems your stringing together some very vague concepts and ideas that are not really central to the AI issue raised. CHATGPT is a small sliver of the AI universe of development and is a slim section of it. There are developments in AI that aren't in the main stream currently that are light years ahead of the playground present in CHATGPT. Your focus should really be within that arena if you truely want to understand the inpact AI can have with all it's good and ill aspects
