  1. 🤣
  2. My Thai partner was NOT amused
  3. Before AI becomes useful it has to do a lot better, a high-tech version of rote learning where there is no capacity to judge whether accurate or not, is NOT useful in teaching young humans. AI is incapable of know what is correct or incorrect just what is statistically likely which does not necessarily mean it is correct. AI often hallucinate, BIG PROBLEM! Imagine an AI-controlled robotic surgeon is doing an operation on and also is hallucinating - What is it going to cut surgically?
  4. Would love to see some good Douro wines or Primitivo wines
  5. This woman, the aunt, needs to be in a secure mental hospital by the sounds of it.
  6. Probably sensible to not drink so much unless you wish to get other physiological problems. They control the levels of ions, osmoregulation, in the body, if you stop them doing this by getting rid excess ions or water, there may be possible serious problems including kidney failure.
  7. Surprised they have not started claiming it was the dangers of cannabis.
  8. True. I love technology that is useful. But abhor outrageous marketing by those with little knowledge.
  9. I wish you success with your cataract operations. It will dramatically improve the quality of your life. I had double cataracts and was legally blind. Once done, you will enjoy life again. This is an operation will a very high chance of success, one of the commonest in the world. And as you, obviously, appreciate the key thing is quality of the surgeon. Good luck
  10. Yes, I know it can be used for teaching, I have English teacher friends who use it, but it needs to be corrected. Also, I agree that teachers often make mistakes on tests, specifically those with little subject knowledge.
  11. AI = marketing term nothing more = more like Artificial Stupidity (AS).
  12. Fully agree, have been a biology teacher & tutor; think it is currently irrelevant to good teaching.
  13. Father 84 (first) - Bile duct cancer; Mother 82 - Renal failure (due to not drinking enough liquids - only Grants whisky and Pinot Grigio, with tiny amounts water with her pills) + Septicaemia - smoking since age 12 did not have any effect on her health apart from making both her sons non-smokers. NHS in Glasgow brilliant service
  14. Factually, it seems to have many problems, coupled it to the tendency to hallucinate (specific AI term).
  15. Many gay men & lesbians will want to get married in Thailand, they will bring money for their weddings.
  16. this used to happen with old tiled roofs in Scotland houses up to 1960s due to the way they fastened to the battens. This improved so it requires really high winds to get rain under them. Slates work better due to being far heavier. But I doubt such things are easily available in Thailand
  17. You would die if you only ate beef & water. SIMPLE and I would not believe you if you said you only ate beef & water because you are still alive. No vitamins in beef, only source is diversity of plants in your diet. Vitamins are essential else you get deficiency diseases depending on what vitamin is most deficient.
  18. I shall look forward to this development, although, I doubt it will happen.
  19. Remarkable that no one died.
  20. Bad owners breed bad dogs with genetic traits for high aggression. Thi is not curable by training, unfortunately, if they have these traits for aggression then they need to be put down. They will not become undangerous around people, especially children. Breeding of dogs for aggreesion is abomination. The police need to stop this breed from existing in Thailand - find them all & remove them from the public.
  21. Agreed. Many good quality beers that are not weak can be obtained. Spiking with higher alcohol not usually good unless going for sangria or punch type drinks
  22. Okay, I understand now. It needs legally explicit if there are usufruct rights who they go to if your parter predeceases you. Need to find a good Thai lawyer to clarify what needs to be done.
