  1. The main Pattaya roads are a disgrace.. Too much reconstruction going on at the same time..

     

    I have a nice car but I will often call a Grab so I don't have the aggravation of dealing with detours and disappearing lanes..

     

    It's going to be good in a couple of years but I'm running out of time!

  2. My issue has not been addressed here yet and I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction...

     

    All I want at present is a VPN for Android mobiles... that does not require using a credit card to enroll. Just don't want to do that..

     

    Options include, purchasing through Lazada for cash, purchasing from Google Play Store paying with my AIS balance, or purchasing at a phone shop with the assistance of staff, i.e. they purchase and install on my behalf. The Lazada option is not as promising as you might think.. lots of options for computers but few for Android mobiles.

     

    The other problem I'm encountering, on Play Store is when I review the main contenders, most mentioned here, is the amount of negative reviews. People saying that battery management is continually killing the VPN or it just doesn'tt work often. The Tech supports for the various companies answer often but usually just saying to contact them.. Often getting replies saying they have already done that..

    Not very confidence inspiring.

    Whats this got to do with this thread ???

    Because..

     

    History didn't start yesterday..

     

    Because..

     

    “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” – George Santayana

     

    And..

     

    Because both Shamir and Begin (wanted "terrorists" by the British Mandate authorities, were elected by the citizens of Israel and became Prime Ministers of Israel, and were accepted as such by the world's politicians.

     

    These and many other uncomfortable facts are facts.

     

    Having stated these facts, the world (including myself) is shocked by the levels of depravity shown by some of the Hamas gunmen.. The ones who did the horrible things have no honor as warriors, in fact no honor at all..

     

    But..

     

    Does an airman, unleashing death from above, have a claim to honor? They also are killing women and children. War is Hell.

     

    Let the women and children leave if possible, then have at it..

     

    Mano a mano.

    Oh yes they will be 'stamped out' just like ISIS, you can mark my words on that!

     

    I agree we will never have substantial peace as some ideologies are incompatible with peace and they need to be eradicated, Hamas, Iran et al knew this but decided terror was the way to further their cause. They have misjudged and many, many innocents on both sides will be killed because or these religious nutters!

    Excuse me.. I believe you have a bit of foam in the corner of your mouth...

    How is it relevant?

     

    it's relevant because, like Jingthing, most people assume that it means anti-Jewish, and it does in it's modern usage, when it's actually a predjudice against all Semitic peoples, not just Jews..

     

    So if the phrase can be applied to both Arabs and Jews, it's not specific enough and people would be more correct (linguistically speaking to say someone is anti-Jewish, not an anti-semite.)

     

    For more relevance take the phrase in the context I wrote it.

     

    "2 sides of the same coin.."

  6. One wonders if Hamas has the political sophistication to announce inquiry into proven (video) war crimes by some of their soldiers..

     

    "Gotta take one for the team fellas"

     

    Of course most of the identified are already dead, but even a few would counter the legitimate outrage..

     

    Ball in Israel's court.. Think collective punishment of Gazan women and children..

     

    Starting to get complicated isn't it?

  7. In a previous post I mentioned working for a man named Roy Farran. I said that there was plenty of info on Google.. Since it's been a while, I took my own advice and googled him..

     

    Member of the SAS. One of the most decorated British soldiers. Born in India. Graduate of Sandhurst. Operated behind enemy lines, working with partisans(terrorists). Openly admitted to shooting unarmed Germans and Italians who had surrendered under white flags. Stone-cold killer indeed..

     

    After the War, Britain fought against Jewish terrorists in Palestine for 3 years. Thousands of British soldiers killed by Jewish nationalists (terrorists). Somebody higher up in the British Army realized that they had a few, SAS and the like, veterans who had practiced terrorism themselves against Germans and Italians.. Lets send them to Palestine.. It worked on a practical level but failed politically..

     

    After the incident with the young boy that I mentioned, Stern Gang sent a book bomb (through the Post) that killed his younger brother whose name had the same first initial...in Britain.

     

    The Jewish state was born from European guilt and Jewish terrorism. in twenty years there will be more Arab citizens than Jewish, yet Israel is a theocratic State. Like Iran. How is that going to work?

     

    I believe an imposed peace has to be on the table because these 2 peoples ( both Semitic BTW) so much for "anti-semitism", are just 2 sides of the same coin.

     

    History did not start yesterday.

     

    Plenty of bad people and atrocities to go around..

    Unfortunately not necessarily true. I ordered a brand-name mouse in January. The official store immediately set the description of the product to "packed" so that I couldn't cancel. The product has yet to ship and Lazada refuse to refund me unless I send them a copy of my passport.

    I had the opposite experience just 2 days ago..

     

    Seller showed as packed for 2 days so i sent a direct message to the seller. "Why so slow?"

     

    Received a quick response.. "out of stock"

     

    I initiated a refund request. The refund was posted to my Lazada Wallet by the end of the day.

    So you probably won't care if the ones above you start pissing out their balcony every time you smoke then

    This kind of back and forth BS is why anti-cannabis folk are not welcome here..

     

    And for the obtuse, when a forum is created it's understood that it's a forum for enthusiasts...

     

    You want to promote anti-cannabis propaganda? Take it to the General forum. It's a free for all there with regards to cannabis.

     

    Finally, you antis are nothing but a mosquito on an elephants butt..we pro people have been dealing with heavy-handed LE forever.. You guys are just good for a laugh.

    What has the motoring forum got to do with gay folk...?  ????

    Relevant because you said..

     

    "Why, it does not say only puffers can comment...????

    Have a look on the motoring forum about EV's........????"

     

    Motors do not generally create division.

     

    But coming into a pro-cannabis forum and promoting an anti-cannabis agenda is as welcome as going into the gay forum promoting conversion therapy.

     

    Capiche?

    (Do you understand?)

  11. To all who may have arrived here from a notice on the right side.. (just checked..topic is not showing on the right hand side, so you are actively seeking out the Cannabis forum so you can post sh*t)

     

    You are in the Cannabis forum. We are pro-cannabis..

     

    Your anti-cannabis comments are unwelcome here.

     

    Take them to the General forum.

    Well, that's what I though too, balcony is fine. However, condo still trying to enforce "no smoking on balcony" (weed and cigarettes).

    No sure if it's legal.

     

    Anyway, the neighbor who complained brought the subject during the annual owner meeting (which happened every year). Luckily she is in the condo below me and all the other owner told her it couldn't come from me since the smoke is going up not down so it couldn't be me.

     

    No more complain since that ????

    "No sure if it's legal."

     

    Your condo is your private property. Legal.

    Again, that's my working theory..
