@SunnyinBangrak Your post is pure hyperbole. This isn't about tariffs, but a reordering. A new world order so to speak. That's why Trump doesn't care about collateral damage. It's just part of a bigger plan. Is it a good one for our planet? I have no idea.

@JackGats It's a great victory to force poor countries to open their markets fully to the U.S.A.? So how can they compete on such an uneven playing field? Let's not forget that the U.S.A got rich from the very system that the MAGAers are currently criticising. You would not have been able to project power in the same way and you would not have your bases all over the world. So now we are seeing the sorting of the spheres of influence. 'Friends' will get relief or simply won't be targeted. I think Scott Bessent mentioned three colours to represent who goes where. The tariffs are just part of the plan.

@dinsdale This is not about tariffs, but jostling for position. If you listen to what his advisors are saying, the tariff strategy is but the first step. Think of it as a three step plan. The 'tariffs' are simply a way to get everyone talking to you.

@MalcolmB Let's deal with the 'evidence' the you have relied upon thus far. Perhaps you can address my assertion that it was a local who made the first strike(against another local who pleaded with him) and in addition, the attack by the 'victim' on the beach mat vendor(clearly standing there with beach mats in his hand).

Or @richard_smith237 he could just be winding you up deliberately.

@MalcolmB I see in some news they are referring to the victim as a beach mat vendor. This seems unlikely. I think the real beach mat vendor is the one standing with the foreigner. That ended up with him being punched in the face and thrown to the ground. Why don't you mention that unprovoked attack by the 'victim' against the beach mat vendor? The 'victim' is a jailbird. Surely up to no good.

@richard_smith237 To be fair, they are getting precisely the reaction from you that they wanted. That's the point of baiting and trolling. To get a reaction. Better to counter them with intelligence.

@MalcolmB As I have already pointed out, it was the jailbirds who started the violence. The first push was to a local who tried to plead with the jailbirds. He got pushed away by the friend of the 'victim'. That was the first strike that we saw.

@MalcolmB There were at least two locals who were in agreement with the foreigner. One, who got up from the mat next to where the video began and appeared to request the two jailbirds to leave. He got pushed by one of them. So that was actually the first physical interaction. I noticed you omitted any mention of that. The other local was set upon later in the video by the jailbird 'victim'. Again, no mention of that by your good self. In addition, that was not the first interaction between the jailbirds and the foreigner. In the previous interaction, the jailbird raised his hand to the foreigner, but the foreigner deflected it downwards. Then the foreigner walked away. Something must have occurred a second time for the foreigner to go back and for the local to get off the mat and suggest the jailbirds go elsewhere. All this you deliberately ignore in your attempt to bait and troll. Do I need to read nationalist comments on Facebook from people who weren't there?

@bang saen guy I posted that a few weeks back, though didn't bother to mention the supermarket, since not everyone lives in that area.

@MalcolmB Why all this Trolling and Baiting? You know there is more to it than the video shows. The jailbirds were obviously up to no good. At the beginning of the video, you can see another local pleading with the jailbirds to leave and he gets pushed. An entirely different local from the one who was standing by the foreigner and who got punched later. So it seems that the locals were on the side of the foreigner, with the criminals being up to no good. Recently, I had a similar experience, with a recently released jailbird scoping out the scene whilst I was sitting with a girlfriend. He walked past a couple of times and then sat nearby, gradually moving closer and closer, perhaps thinking that I wouldn't notice. As aforementioned, that area is rife of that sort. Don't blame the foreigner. He's there with his wife. If he got involved, there was likely good reason.

@Yagoda Suck off us? I was referring to Americans in the first place, dolt! 🙂 Domestic policy. More nonsense from you, as per usual. I guess we'll see the results in time. Meanwhile you'll still be posting your hate filled bile, twisting whatever outcome to suggest it's a 'win'.

@Yagoda Did you have no love as a child? What makes a man so bitter and hateful? Why do you think Zuckerberg and the like fell into line so quickly? They will be spared the effects of his worst excesses. Fall into line and you will get tariff relief. It's a political play, directly from the KGB playbook. Pledge loyalty to Trump and your business/institution will be spared. The criminals have taken over.

Concerns over a rush of last-minute enquiries mean anyone who requests a call back from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) on the issue will not be regarded as having missed the 5 April deadline. People can currently make voluntary extra contributions to plug National Insurance gaps back to 2006. But, after April's deadline, this will be limited to the previous six years only. Some people may have spaces in their National Insurance record if, for example, they have lived abroad or taken time off for caring responsibilities. In general, people need 35 years of qualifying contributions to get the full state pension. Top-ups have been permitted, as part of the transition to the flat-rate state pension, which was introduced in 2016. Currently, these can go back for nearly 20 years, but are due to return to the normal six years after April 5th. If you currently click 'view details' on any years for which you might want to make voluntary contributions, you automatically get another month to pay. People wanting more breathing space to buy top-ups should therefore request a callback as aforementioned, or click on 'view details' on years they might want to buy on their NI record, or do both.

@Sir Dude Compete properly? Rigged market? https://www.epi.org/publication/rooted-racism-prison-labor/ You are elevating the USA to a gold standard, when it is anything but that. I hope they keep their crappy food and their greed is good attitude far away from my country.

@petedk Before you go rushing into the clean install, check if your laptop is 'eligible' for the upgrade/installation of Windows 11. Only some 330s have 8th Gen Intel CPU. If yours has a 7th Gen, you'll need to effect a bypass of the installation check in order to install. Remember to delete ALL existing partitions on the SSD before cleanly installing Windows 11.

Had you already upgraded to Windows 11? It seems he clean installed Windows 11 Pro, instead of upgrading to Windows 11 Home.

@petedk I don't know why he changed it, rather than to simply clone your old drive. Though a clean install is usually best. He might have spent 100 baht to buy a Pro product key. Who knows? Then there are the other programs you state he has installed. Not the best idea to let someone loose on your laptop.

@petedk If you need it in the future, you can enable it at that time.

@Serenity_Now If it were just the Power Settings, the issue wouldn't present itself when the OP utilised the Windows Shutdown method. Power Settings affect the Power button, Sleep button and Lid closing and Screen. There is only the Fast Start up setting that affects how the device closes down when using the Shutdown method. No one knows what the Tech changed. Personally, I would restore BIOS to default and run a clean install/factory restore(if possible), after backing up any data.

@MalcolmB They are looking for you 😊

Dusit Grande Park... I don't understand why someone would go on holiday to a beach location and decide to stay in the jungle. The sea air and atmosphere makes all the difference.

Dusit Grande Park in the back streets? It cannot be Dusit Grand Condo, as Copacabana is opposite. Why do you always 'choose' such places?

I was going to suggest resetting BIOS to defaults, as I imagined that the Tech had enabled USB Boot in order to install the new OS. As an aside, which version and edition did he install?

Brand name and model number.....?
