He's trapped like a rat. There's an international arrest warrant out for him. Maybe Hungary or Serbia?

He's just keeping it real.

No problem. Unrelated issues. My main concern is nutrition in the fake meat. Grain fed beef and battery chickens are bad enough let alone lab grown meat.

Somehow the Russian army and Wagner are going to cooperate in Ukraine? This is very good news for Ukraine.

That's a hard no from me. ChatGPT Lab-grown meat is actually made from animal cells, so it can contain comparable vitamins and minerals to conventionally-produced meat. In fact, scientists are working to ensure that lab-grown meat is nutritionally equivalent to real meat. However, it may not contain the same levels of saturated fats and other nutrients that vary depending on how the animal is raised and fed. More research is still needed to fully understand the nutritional content of lab-grown meat.

MAGA Republicans are once again trying to intimidate the DOJ against Jan. 6 indictments "Trumpist Republicans know their propaganda worked, at least for a while. It’s precisely why, now that the law is coming down on Trump, they’ve launched a full-on blitz against DOJ and any other agents of accountability in sight," the report states. https://www.rawstory.com/maga-intimidate-gop/

I guess you don't disagree then.

A highly partisan House run by MAGA nutjobs criticising Schiff is evidence?

Probably not but we see many racists posting here and presumably many of them are married to Thais.

So a criminal mercenary group may well take over Russia. Putin has put them into a fine mess.

Remember not long ago when everybody was talking gold through the roof?

Once you learn about T/A you'll also learn that it's a game of probabilities.

The reason it dropped was because there was strong bearish divergence. Often, but not always, divergences seem to snap back again. We'll see. I believe it will continue on up now that it has broken critical levels. Conversely, it's well above moving averages so may revert to mean.

I understand the need for fairness and balance but this outlet has blown it's credibility. It has declared a willingness and has demonstrated a track record of lying over and over again to prop up the bottom line. Fox has admitted to lying massively. We shouldn't have to put up with this dubious source any further.

You mean impeach Biden just because Trump was impeached? The MAGA right know they'll never have to justify an impeachments. It's just talking points for the base.

As I explained above, to give to other countries. You know, foreign aid.

mRNA jabs are covid jabs.

It beats the hell out of "you'd understand if you only opened your eyes to the truth".

They're clearly intended to help poor countries to get vaccines under an international agreement struck early on. Ex ept for the US where the then president cut WHO funding for vaccines. It seems some posters here who like to engage in gratuitous Thai bashing can make a pig's ear out of a silk purse. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/7/29/covid-vaccines-must-be-redirected-by-september

Australia threatens Twitter with fines after surge in hate speech complaints. "We are also aware of reports that the reinstatement of some of these previously banned accounts has emboldened extreme polarisers, peddlers of outrage and hate, including neo-Nazis both in Australia and overseas." The move comes as Twitter is undergoing a regulatory "stress test" from European Union officials focused on its handling of user content and whether it is equipped to meet online safety regulations. If Twitter failed to respond to the eSafety commissioner's notice within 28 days, the company could face maximum financial penalties of nearly $700,000 a day for continuing breaches, she said. https://www.9news.com.au/national/australia-threatens-twitter-with-fines-after-surge-in-hate-speech-complaints/9f62436a-49d9-4fe6-b35e-1a1cabdb47f8

Crazy, isn't it? I can remember exactly what I was doing every day 18 years ago.

As Donald Trump and his lawyers head to court once again to face a second defamation lawsuit filed by E. Jean Carroll, he faces the very real prospect of a jury awarding her up to $100 million in punitive damages should a jury find in her favor. According to a report from New York Times' Benjamin Weiser, Carroll's attorney is looking for a win and financial penalties at the outermost edge that will get the former president to cease smearing her client and that may come in the form of a massive punitive damage award. https://www.rawstory.com/trump-e-jean-carroll-2661745479/

I've pretty much decided to buy a mac mini m2 soon to replace my ASUS mini ubuntu machine which has a couple of issues with some software, particularly the Slack app. I won't get the pro, just the standard with optional 16 Gb RAM. I don't need the enhanced GPU for a lot more cash. The stock drive is only 256 Gb but I prefer to use external storage anyway. I was tempted to build a custom machine with Intel i7 13th gen and DDR5 RAM and run ubuntu on that but it would be considerably more expensive, albeit more fun. Does anybody have positive or negative experiences with the mac mini?

Old Thailand

Is Thai massage all pain and no gain? I've been having a Thai massage every second day for a week now. The pain is decreasing a little and I feel looser. The masseuse originally talked me into an oil massage but as soon as she laid a hand on my muscles and exclaimed "kang mahk" she changed her mind and proceeded with the Thai massage. If anything I think the oil massage is just relaxing tourist stuff. Opinions?
