Dengue fever outbreak hits 3-year high; nearly 20,000 affected, 15 deaths
ukrules replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
You know the vast majority of people who get Dengue don't even know they've had it. -
Ridiculous laws and regulations which end up tearing themselves apart. Reminds me of a story from a couple of days ago about a couple of countries which won't accept their own currency back from filthy foreign countries as it must be tainted by laundering. They reap what they sow

That part of my post was about binance.

Nonsense. Binance.US is a tiny fraction of what Binance actually is, about 2% I believe. It's an irrelevance. However now they've taken action against Coinbase as well I would expect that to hit harder. In a way I don't blame Gensler for this action as the choices these exchanges make in what to list and trade are highly suspicious.

Toilet terror: Python’s restroom wriggle shocks couple in Thailand
ukrules replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
I wonder, how did this snake get into the toilet? Was it slithering around the house and looking for water or somehow managed to get in through the plumbing? I would have thought there's some kind of septic tank that would keep things like this out. So, how come snakes are often reported to be in toilets, does anyone know? -

Phuket immigration issues yellow cards to Thai landlords and foreigner

I'd like to see a list of these crimes against the state, unless of course it's an offence against the state to publish such a list - which wouldn't surprise me. -

B800000 Transfer to Other Bank
ukrules replied to carlyai's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I believe you don't need 800k for a full year. But you do need 400k I would suggest transferring 400k twice and on different days which are not during the period where your balance is required to remain at 800k or above - 2 months before renewal and 3 months after renewal..... That way you don't go under the minimum required amount all year around which is 400k. Never send the exact amount - allow for transfer fees, ATM card 'tax' or some other charges, put a few thousand extra in each just in case.- 31 replies

Artificial intelligence could lead to extinction, experts warn
ukrules replied to onthedarkside's topic in World News
It's known as 'regulatory capture' where the current 'players' encourage regulation in order to keep others out. The bar for entry would be set very high, everyone involved right now of course would be grandfathered in. That way there's no competition - what they fear is an arms race which reduces their current monopoly to zero. A fine example of this kind of approach by big business is the beer brewing regulations in Thailand. All stitched up between a couple of mega corporations with a massive bar to entry for new producers. That's what they're doing, they will write their own regulations anyway. -

Artificial intelligence could lead to extinction, experts warn

What this is about : Existing AI firms are simply pushing for regulation to make life difficult for future entrants. That pretty much sums it up. -
He did say in a tweet that he only did this where the entire platform would be censored if they don't comply they the demands. The EU thing is optional, so I expect him to make them force him to remove it - i they do that there's going to be big trouble all over the EU. I have a feeling that 'Digital Minister Jean-Noël Barrot' of France will not be allowed to dictate policy for every EU member state regardless of how important he thinks he is.
