  1. Does that mean that once a woman undergoes a hysterectomy she is no longer a woman? Understood. What I meant was, she looks female. I would think that most people, not knowing anything about her other than what they assume on that first impression, would guess she was a she and so call her the same. Woke eh. The term of the decade. So overused. Isn't that for women to decide? Are you a woman?
  2. The chemical being iron oxide on a blunt rusty knife.
  3. Not sure where to start with this. They should stay in their closets? Perhaps people with such views should stay in their caves? Her situation is very different from a t woman competing in women's sport, where the cis gendered would potentially be at a disadvantage. That is wrong. For a t woman to win a beauty contest against cis gendered women means she overcame tremendous obstacles, including, I'm sure, masses of obnoxious comments from many such as you. She was born biologically male. There can be no argument with that. Since then, she's gone through more pain and overcome more hurdles than most of us could ever imagine. She entered a competition that she was entitled to enter, and won it based on the views of those voting. She is entitled to be called "she". Fully entitled. That you wont accept it doesn't change anything. What have you overcome in your life to achieve anything like her success?
  4. Maybe not quite the answer you were looking for, but unless you're after a package holiday (and even then not in most cases), travel agents are a middle man I've not used in decades. I book direct with my preferred airline(s) via their websites or, if I don't care about the airline and, rather, price is the key factor, skyscanner.com to find the best flight options. I might then follow the skyscanner,com links or still go straight to the airlines web page to book.
  5. Bought some Cillit Bang over from the UK with me a couple of weeks ago. It's struggling with the stains I get here in Thailand. 99.8%+ acetic acid https://www.lazada.co.th/products/acetic-acid-1000ml-1-i3256305221-s12092515992.html 1L for 180 baht food grade or 160 baht industrial grade. There are a few suppliers at around the 150 baht range too. I bought the 180 baht stuff from here.
  6. Come on England!
  7. I reckon the internet was off in the pool.
  8. Did you listen or only hear? Maybe the person on Radio 4 was an expert and you are the "expert"? We don't know too many details of the events, so we're not in a position to say he likely did anything. The cops say he did nothing illegal. Perhaps, with the hatchet job done by "the sun", he now knows his career is over and he will only be remembered for a very public shaming. Enough to drive anyone to mental illness. Innocent until proven guilty (if there is even an offence to answer to). If the latter happens then by all means hang him out to dry.
  9. A photo of an RTP officer holding a brown envelope. Fiction surely?
  10. Holy weightloss Batman. What kind of parties did she provide? From the look on the face of the Thai chap behind her, I reckon she might have just let one go.
  11. CTRL ALT and one of the arrow keys together. You must have already enabled the hotkeys for this to have happened in the first place.
  12. Use a plugin. Look for backup / restore. Does pretty much all the work for you, including pages / database etc. Can't remember the one I used in the past as I don't use WP that much, but it was AllInOneBackup or something like that.
  13. You're ignoring the fact that Qatar has 1 hub.... Doha, so pretty much ALL their own flights will either start or end in Doha. SkyScanner tries to get the cheapest flight possible, so sometimes it will give ridiculous connections (either destination or layover time). The cheapest flight is not always (and is often not) the most direct flight. Qatar also often do short hops at some destinations to combine traffic. for instance they do it for Vietnam and Cambodia I believe, different flight numbers but the same plane. ...but I guess for some, the real explanation isn't as interesting as the Earth being flat. EDIT: By the way, in that same SkyScanner search, you ignored the 1 stop Emitates flight Rio > Dubai > Colombo, which is far more direct, but still has long layovers. Close to twice the price of the 2/3 stop flights too. Perhaps Qatar give a discount to members of DENSA?
  14. Not one of the commercial flights listed shows the airline or the flight number(s). Could it be that the Buenos Aires to Johannesburg flights are performed by KLM through their Schipol hub? Nah, far more sensible to believe that the Earth is flat. Shame about the rotation of the stars being different between the northern and southern hemisphere and about 1000 other anomalies that make a flat Earth impossible.
  15. Chemically or surgically?
  16. Many Thais against one foreigner. Surely not?

    Shopee

    I buy quite a lot from amazon.com and amazon.co.uk Nothing too bulky because of the shipping costs, but quite a few things (including shipping and import duties) have been cheaper than I can find locally.
  18. From Decathlon I reckon: https://www.decathlon.co.th/en/search?query=sandals
  19. I'm somewhat alarmed that the rescue services neither dashed nor rushed to the scene. It appears they only intervened in a timely manner. Budget cuts I guess.
  20. Even more reason to change the bulbs as a quick win. A single 100W incandescent bulb running only 3 hours per day is using roughly 8kW of additional energy over and above it's LED equivalent in a month. It will pay for itself in 2 months on direct energy usage alone. Add to that, it's pumping out around 95 additional watts of heat all the time that it is on, which will make the aircon work just that little harder. That's just one bulb running for only 3 hours per day. I would guess that I have the equivalent of around 30 100 watt bulbs running for around 8 hours per day. Some will have more, some less. That is around 3000 baht per month lost if they were incandescent, ignoring the additional heat factor. It's a no-brainer. It's also not something you should do instead of replacing heavy drain items, just a quick win with little effort and little outlay.
  21. Apologies for not being clearer. Yes to LEDs for lots of reasons, power savings being one. If by "conventional" bulbs you mean incandescent (98% heat, 2% light), then they can blow in such a way as to trip many circuit breakers, so you're not just replacing a bulb more often, you're also resetting breakers.
  22. You don't really need to do the ROI. It's been done by a few hundred million people decades before you. Just the lesser need to replace, along with fewer to zero trips of a circuit breaker make LED the right solution even before (massive) power savings come into play.
