  1. I've been down that road. For one it would create a full time job for you guys as I seem to have built up quite a "fan" club. Secondly, I understand that if members were suspended or banned because of misuse of emojis "there wouldn't be many members left".
  2. I'll be reducing my time on this board and away from trolls who use emojis to stalk and annoy instead of contributing sensible and meaningful posts. I'd rather see all emojis gone instead of the shoe fight we have here now.
  3. I was just enjoying a coffee at the end of soi 6 and watched a huge parade of big bikes along beach road. Hundreds of them, mostly Harley's but plenty of other big bikes including custom make trikes. Does anybody know what this is about and whether these bikes will be on display anywhere?
  4. Rubbish. The Ukrainian military doesn't need SpaceX anyway. They have alternatives. It's more about who Musk thinks are his friends and who aren't. Musk pumped the price for using his service back when he was threatening Ukraine over it, essentially making it the unnecessary expensive alternative internet.
  5. Biden should issue an executive order to force SpaceX to reinstate the service. It is a clear threat to US national security interests.
  6. After threatening to do this last year SpaceX issued a statement that they would not.
  7. How does that explain the rise of Uber et al in other countries where the taxis do use the meter?
  8. Post pandemic bounce according to this website: The UK’s economy flatlined in the last three months of 2022, helping it to avoid a recession by the thinnest of margins, new data show. The Office for National Statistics recorded 0.0% growth in gross domestic product (GDP) in the fourth quarter. “The economy contracted sharply in December meaning, overall, there was no growth in the economy over the last three months of 2022,” said ONS director of economic statistics Darren Morgan. https://www.aol.com/uk-narrowly-avoided-recession-flat-071857688.html
  9. Why? They have huge vats. It was brewed on site previously.
  10. The brew is made in Pattaya. It was always made by a German who worked there but he died a year ago. It's still made here to his recipe.
  11. They sang in several languages.
  12. Israel's "right to exist" is more often than not code for "Palestine's no right to exist". I think they should she mutually dependent.
  13. Try not assuming that everyone who you disagree with is not reading relevant articles. I did not offer any opinion by the way , only a comment on what I saw this week on the ground. Watch that knee.
  14. How stupid. They can easily figure out how something as dumb as camera is behaving. Tools like wireshark can be used to examine the network flow.
  15. I'm still seeing significant number of masks being worn by Thais around Central Festival Mall in Pattaya. So much so that I was wondering if there had been a resurgence in infections and made a note to check.
  16. Bad advice can readily be checked. People who take on good advice are better off than those who do nothing.
  17. Reuters is reporting that the British will train Ukrainian pilots on NATO jets.
  18. DeSantis will wimp away from this fight, like he always has done.
  19. Hopefully he did because they need to be constantly reminded of it.
  20. The article discusses how it may have gotten out of control of a low level official in the military. I don't know what it is but common sense tells us that if the military were happy to let it fly until it crossed the coast it wasn't too much of a security problem.
  21. He added that it was particularly silly” because both Chinese and U.S. satellites are equipped with cameras that do more than enough to scan the ground, and they “really don't gain much—if anything—added value from balloons.” https://www.thedailybeast.com/chinas-spy-balloon-isnt-as-low-tech-as-you-think
  22. Calling yourself stupid? Or just arguing with yourself?
