Certainly contradicts current charts, showing the baht has been strong in the past 6 months, or USD weak (your choice). Just a slight dip since Oct 1st. Thai Baht to United States Dollar Along with if history repeats itself, the USD will get weaker with another Trump administration. Last administration he stared with USD / THB at shy of 35 / $1, and left office, with the USD / THB @ 30 / $1. Think someone needs a new source of info for their op-ed

I'm amazed people were dumb enough to get the shots 3 years ago, let alone continuing to get them now, after all that is known. At least back then, they could almost plead ignorance. You really can't fix stupid IMHO of course

To the topic ... when ? Don't wait for that to happen. ... be self sufficiency & independent. Take care, control of your own affairs, and you won't need the rest of the world for anything. Rely on others, and you will fail

Yes, and probably correct, along with the govt is also a big holder of it's own debt. Borrowing from themselves ... think Social Security, and how they drained that fund to near insolvency. Still in the print more money mode. Debt is on paper, and as long as nobody calls you on it, then you're not bankrupt. JFK wanted to do away with Central Banking & Fed ... shh ... we all know how that turned. ME ... ain't paying and haven't paid taxes most of the past 24 years. Think I got all mine back, or will before I crap out. Like bein a blight on society

Choose a different material ... think termites.

I had/have numerous yahoo mail accounts, as days past, they didn't require a ph#. Seems now there's always a problem signing in, and the code thing doesn't work, as sent to another yahoo account, which needs to be signed in. I won't give my ph# to any account, that I don't need, as like to be incognito on the web. Only 1 mail accounts (hotmail) has my real name & ph#. All the rest have BS info. Even AN, I think is a yahoo account, and if ever asked to verify that, I'd be gone, or have to start a new username, I think. Though doubt I'd bother, especially if Ph# required.

Didn't leave many options in the poll. In the past yes. Actually now, rare that I sip at all, let alone out of the house, or even more than one. So technically, still drink & drive, When I was a weekend or monthly warrior, here in Thailand, I'd simply get a hotel, when living in Udon Thani, as most of my sipping days were there. Local forum even had monthly meet ups, and a pub crawl/drive at times, and I'd hire a private tuk tuk driver to 'limo' my butt to each bar When single, then later the GF/wife would simply drive, if we didn't get a hotel. Hotel was the usual route, until later, when the meeting weren't 'alcohol fueled'. After a few, just give the GF/wife the keys. Days past in USA, can't say I was as responsible, and thankfully never had an oops or hurt anyone. One reason I liked happy hours in Philly, as took the train to/from, living walking distance to the train in suburbia. Couldn't get any more convenient than that.

Did another 'equalization', today, 6 weeks after the 'quoted' one above. As should be done (BYD info) when <10%, instead of 18%, and last time, it was interrupted. So took the MG ZS down to 6%, and nothing changed. Took 43.5kW to get back to 100%, and strangely, the same 6kW discrepancy, from what the car got, and what the grid provided. So no need for the MG ZS to be taken down below 10%, (not a fan of) as same results as below 20%.

From the link I posted, that you didn't read. Senseless to have a discussion, when you echo MSM BS vs science ... Have a Nice Day "Whether most scientists outside climatology believe that global warming is happening is less relevant than whether the climatologists do. A letter signed by over 50 leading members of the American Meteorological Society warned about the policies promoted by environmental pressure groups. “The policy initiatives derive from highly uncertain scientific theories. They are based on the unsupported assumption that catastrophic global warming follows from the burning of fossil fuel and requires immediate action. We do not agree.”2 Those who have signed the letter represent the overwhelming majority of climate change scientists in the United States, of whom there are about 60." ____________________________________________________________________ "For the CO2 narrative to be true REQUIRES: 1. Man’s (4%) CO2 to controls the rest of (96%) CO2. 2. CO2 to be the main controller of temperature and climate. BOTH CLAIMS FAIL AGAINST SCIENCE, and are not made any less false by any number of new or old ‘celebs’ generating large carbon footprints by attending “Save-The-Planet” stunts where they tell us all to not fly, not eat meat, not drive cars, not breath etc. Nor do the industrial scale official temperature data set “adjustments”, alarmist forecasts which never come true, or the hysterical propaganda claims of “record” heat at questionably selected urban heat islands, make falsity valid. The first contention, the idea that Man’s CO2 controls the rest of natural CO2 – plant growth and decay, termite CO2/Methane production (which is significantly more in net supposed “greenhouse” effect than Man’s – and 2 thus it is questionable as to why we have not declared war on termites), volcanoes etc etc. – is an absurd conspiracy theory of nature. There is no evidence for this madness. Do termites increase CO2 production when you ride in a bus around your town, simply because your CO2 is human produced? The second assertion, that CO2 controls climate is negated by observations. In the long run CO2 levels are an EFFECT NOT A CAUSE of changes in Climate / temperatures. Sea temperatures rule CO2 as the oceans hold 50 times more CO2 than the atmosphere. If the sea warms, CO2 is released (like warming a glass of fizzy drink) and if it cools it absorbs CO2 from the air. This happens on a daily/weekly/monthly/yearly basis and on average CO2 in the whole atmosphere stays around for a few years before going back into the upper levels of the ocean or into the soil; CO2 levels in these relatively small changes LAG behind temperature changes. On longer time scales extra CO2 emitted from the sea surface in warm periods gets swallowed up into the cold deep ocean by currents off e.g. Greenland and emerges 500-800 years later in the air over the Pacific etc. after a long deep sea trek - see below. So, the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere, over the long run, is an effect, and not a cause, of temperatures and lags behind the climate by about 500-800years"

Monica Beer Bar @ Clinton Plaza ... ... never mind, that went the same way of hillary's political career 😎

Finally, done with the ground beef; burger, sloppy joe, almost done with the meatloaf. Guess I'll call that a tomato/onion omelet & salmon

Anyone running out of electrons with their BEV would have to be one of the dumbest drivers. Took ours down to the low side of 6%, (purposely) and still had an estimated 20kms of range left. Got the usual 30% charge remaining warning, and good for at least 100 kms more. Then got 4 more audio warnings as the additional ~5% wound down, along with idiot icon on display.

If USA wasn't so great, why are millions, trying to get in, legally & illegally every year. Many from very far away, when EU is so much closer. A lot more people trying to get into the USA, than leaving. Since I've lived in both USA & TH, for about the same amount of time as an adult, I can state both are great. Both have their pros & cons. TBH, if I had unlimited funds, I don't know which one I would live in. Probably neither, permanently. I'd visit the USA, play nomadic tourist for about a year, but probably leave. Also probably wouldn't come back to TH, to permanently live. Probably have a condo in each (Philly / USA & BKK / TH), for short visits, since having family in each.

Interesting concept, so I checked 2022 - 2023 / Oct - Sept, used 7,186 kWh 2023 - 2024 / Oct - Sept, used 4,776 kWh We were also O&A, away from house, overnighting, about the same amount of days (~40) which implies this past year, was definitely cooler than previous.

Fairly obvious from the replies, I sense most anti Joe & Donald folks didn't even listen to the podcast ... troll on ... nuff said

YaBa in crystal form (ice), and just kicks in almost instantly. YaBa vs cocaine (crack) in TH, at a guess. If snorting meth or coke, you just use a bank note, and no need to complicate the process. Not a single use plastic straw, as not eco friendly and you don't want microplastics in your body, as just too harmful Or so I read 😎

Because it's a false narrative, that climatologists simply don't agree with ... IMHO I only state IMHO, so it doesn't get deleted, but I did post a source somewhere on AN, with that source, just too lazy and can't be bothered to search for it. edit: some reading for the ignorant folks that believe MSM https://www.bundestag.de/resource/blob/666002/21b43e1b155051227ef2981acd52c254/19-16-292-C-Corbyn-data.pdf https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC1112950/#:~:text=Most members of the Intergovernmental,C between 1979 and 1994. https://www.fraserinstitute.org/article/putting-the-con-in-consensus-not-only-is-there-no-97-per-cent-consensus-among-climate-scientists-many-misunderstand-core-issues

OP doesn't make sense, quite the opposite actually, as folks complain the home currency is weaker. Trump win ... what to expect ? That's easy if a repeat from last administration. For Yanks, expect a weaker USD against the THB. Trump sworn in 2017 - 2021 when Trump leaves ... nuff said

Got it backwards, wet dog smells like a disgusting, smelly white person

Used to inhale 'cooked' drugs. DIY crack pipe ... Cook the drugs on non flammable surface (tin foil) and use straw to inhale the fumes. edit: or so I read 🙄

WOW ... just wow ... I'm watching it now, and about 1 hr into it, and I almost feel bad, OK, I do feel bad, about wanting him to lose the election, and have 4 more years of high COLAs & back to 35+ THB to the USD. biden/harris administration has been very good, the best, for expats. 20% COLA over 4 yrs, and a ~20% increase on exchange rate, except the last few months. How anyone can watch him talk, then watch her talk, and even consider voting for her is just mind boggling. Embarrassing, that people would be that stupid. No matter who wins, I'll have very missed feelings about it All rational, and what's good for the USA aside .. 2024 ... HARRIS ... 2024

It's been almost chilly down here / PKK. Went from AC at night, to fan at night, to now no fan & using quilt/blanket. And it's not even November yet Damn MMCC & GW ...

So almost half the voters are stupid, and the other half are total idiots Why I don't vote, and distance myself from both groups

Don't sell the rest of the western world short on stupidity. Look at the countries that followed the USA to war in Vietnam, Iraq Afghanistan and other silly conflicts. Not sure who is more stupid, the one who initiates wars, or the lap dogs that follow

If born this year. By the time those born this year reach 60/65, the goal post may be moved again, to what ... 80/85
