Is it better to do good in this world....or not?
GammaGlobulin replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
There are always... Worms, obviously. -
IMHO, and the US Army's opinion... These tests say a LOT. Only necessary to read the tons of data available on the Internet. If you are saying that: The average citizen of PNG, living in the jungle, is smarter than the top undergrads at HARVARD, then you may be correct. There is a very wellknown Harvard prof that argues this point. And, he may be right.

The SAT is, essentially, an iQ test, which is something that most people do know. Care to post your SAT scores? Or, you might not have taken them, depending on what school system you were in, and where you were intending to study at university. The scores pre-1973 are not equivalent to those of later tests. Also, the earlier SATs were open-ended... Still, the SAT is an IQ test.

Thailand Chooses Cities for Future Casino Complexes
GammaGlobulin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Why don't they just buy up about 10 very large barges and float them offshore, as gambling sites. I do not gamble, and so I will not participate even if one is opened in CM. By the way: Casinos did wonders for Macao (Macau)....NOT.... -
I don't know about the average Thai person. However, for sure, i am smarter than the average Farang. And, over twice as smart as the average Farang in Thailand. NOTE: By "smart", I am assuming that you are referring to IQ, which is measurable, and refers to mental age, relative to chronological age.

Judging from the video, I am not so sure that this was not actually his intent. -
British Embassy Faces Rising Consular Case Demands in Thailand
GammaGlobulin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The best way to reduce the workload is to just discourage those from the UK visiting Thailand. I suggest the same for Americans and Canadians, as well. Aussies are OK, though, for me. The population of Australia is very low. Therefore, not, really a problem. -
British Retirees Escape Thai Jail After Violent Land Dispute

They did contact a lawyer at the outset, and stopped further construction for three months, and it was this that caused hostilities to rise. -
British Retirees Escape Thai Jail After Violent Land Dispute

It has been my long-held and honest belief that most westerners come to countries such as Thailand for the wrong reasons. They seem to come here in some misguided attempt to live in paradise for cut-rate prices. Instead, their only motivation for coming to Asian and SE Asian countries to live should be exclusively due to their love of Asia, and their preference for living in Asian culture, which means, in fact, living in a country based on Chinese culture. Even Japan is primarily steeped in Chinese culture, for example beginning with Tang Dynasty culture. We should come to Thailand, and other SE Asian countries, and East Asian Countries, as a means to learn the history of this part of the world, to learn AT LEAST two different Asian languages, one of which should be Chinese, and another Japanese, and then we can add one more "elective" languages of our choice. Passa Thai would be good for those who intend to living in Thailand, for example. If the primary motivation of westerners is to live in some sort of Sun-Bathed Paradise with Palm Trees and Golf Courses, then do not come here to SE Asia. Instead, these fools should be going to places like Naples Florida. In Naples Florida, most westerners would find themselves feeling more "at home" and not subject to being immersed in Asian culture. I believe their first choice might be Naples Florida because this small area seems to be more what they are actually looking for... Naples is a FAR CHEAPER place to live than places like Palm Beach. Also, here in Naples, one rarely is required to fight one's neighbors over property disputes. If one is looking for a non-Asian lifestyle, in the sun, with plenty of golf, I would say that Naples, Florida would probably be the best choice, and there are several others. On the other hand, if one's first love is ASIA, as is mine, then Naples just will not do. And, I would never live outside of Asia for just this reason. Very few people in Naples speak Chinese and passa Thai, unfortunately. Still, there is quite a substantial Chinese population in Florida, most fortunately, but not as many Chinese people as you will find in either China or Thailand. CHOICES are just so important. Do your research before coming to Asia. -
Uncertainty Over Thailand's Proposed 400 Baht Minimum Wage Hike
GammaGlobulin replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Seems to me that Bt.400.00 per hour might still be about half of what they make in some developed countries. Therefore, Thailand still has a way to go. -
The problem is that YT should disclose any time the narration is machine generated. Why? Because machine narration of videos is extremely boring, and a waste of time. Creators seem to believe that they can use AI to create these lousy boring videos and that people will watch. They are mistaken. There should be a warning on YT videos anytime the script is AI generated, and anytime the voice of the narrator is machine generated. Google will not change. What is needed is an app to filter out all this AI GARBAGE. If this rampant increase of AI content is not quickly curbed, then YT will soon become unwatchable.
