    Yep. It is being reported daily. 

     

    The process is that clusters of hospital walk in cases are investigated, contact tracing is performed, and if it seems that there are significant cases numbers, the mobile testing units are brought in for mass testing. Typically, a Hotspot will be a factory, construction site, or a neighborhood. These will be isolated, positive cases will be sent to a field hospital or hospital, and testing will continue until all positive cases are identified and treated. That eliminates the Hotspot. 

     

     

    Thank you for finally agreeing that testing is limited to known hotspots, and not done randomly, as it should be.

     

    Now if only you also could agree, that even the number of tests performed in those hotspots is limited.

    What are you on about.  There are no venues open like you have stated, no night clubs or fighting stadiums, unless your underground in a bunker you might know this.

     

    I have to agree that night clubs and fighting stadiums are closed, but if you want to claim that there aren't many bars and other entertainment venues open, behind closed doors,  then you should change glasses.

     

    This is so in Bangkok and many other places

    On the other hand a preference for "Tinned" soups tells me more about you than anything you could ever  say or write  !

     

    I think you missed the point again, as in the post you replied to, I explained that tinned soups is not what I consider ready to eat and not what I'm looking for. ????

     

    Not sure either what it tells about me, if I don't want to spend an hour in the kitchen cooking and cleaning utensils, when all I want is a bowl of soup.

     

    Why would I waste all that time, if I can have someone do it for me, and all I have to do is warm it up?

  4. I can notice already that the Casino soup available at Big C Xtra was a bargain, at 99 Bht for 1 Litre, which I guess is way over 1Kg, and I should have bought the whole stock ????

     

    Makro I think is still acceptable at 125 Bht for 665 gram, and may give Palerobbie a try, as they have a quite nice selection.

     

    Thanks for your replies so far

    "Crypto is down 50%, it's a bubble, etc..."

     

    Said by people with zero understanding of what crypto is, the ebbs and flows of the crypto game,  and who begrudge others making money because they don't have the balls to try it themselves...

     

    Well I would agree with you if you consider Bullard and Roubini as people with no understanding about how things work.

    Instead, the people with zero understanding, are IMO those who base the value of anything on a tweet from Musk.

    Note the OP is talking about "creamy" soups.

    Villa, Foodland, Friendship, Siamburis, Tops. They all have canned soups though the selection varies from store to store.

     

    Probably explained myself incorrectly, due to the fact I'm not English native, what I mean is ready to eat soups, and I have noticed that most of them have a tad of cream added.

     

    Tinned soups is not what I consider ready to eat soups, and i'm aware of their existences here.

     

    What I'm looking for is something like this, which has been available at Big C Xtra for a short period of time recently.

  7. As the title says that's what I like, and I don't mean those powdered minute soups to which you add hot water, but a thick vegetable soup with cream which is ready to eat.

     

    I know I can prepare it myself, but if i wanted to do that, I would not start this thread.

     

    Recently they had 1 liter brick packs of mixed vegetable soup at Big C Xtra for 99 Baht, which were good in both price and quality, but they don't have them any more.

     

    I found frozen spinach soup at Makro, but however it tastes good, the portions are small for the price.

     

    So any suggestions where I could buy something like this in the Pattaya area are welcomed.

    A lot of derivatives expire on Friday, we can see this in action towards the end of some of the previous months.

    Those 'dips' aren't people randomly selling.

     

     

    You call this "dips"?

     

    I didn't see it the previous months making 50% dips.

     

    You're right it aren't random people selling, it are the big player running for the woods.,

     

    This is what is really happening.

    The latest statement, however, still stopped short of an outright ban on cryptocurrency mining. It also did not elaborate on the measures involved or scale of this crackdown.

    "We should expect the relevant departments, including law enforcement, to come up with detailed measures to ban bitcoin mining in the near future," Li said.

    What happens on the last Friday of each month?

     

    Friday comes closer, and since Musk most likely is now running a loss on his 1.5 Billion crypto investment, maybe he will make a statement on Friday about how much he loves crypto?

    Few people can build a car company from scratch, as the capital requirements are enormous. One either needs a novel idea, is a great salesman, or has piles of his own cash. (Elon Musk sort of had all three of those, and exploiting each made him, for a time, the richest person on the planet, at least on paper.)

     

    Only that Musk didn't build a car company.

     

    Tesla was founded by Eberhard and Tarpenning, and Musk invested in it through the investment fund he was running, 1 year after the company existed
