I wonder what the capacity to treat these more serious cases is these days?

US to help Thailand develop small nuclear reactors
ukrules replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
This article is a worthy read : https://skeptoid.com/episodes/4555 It contains a lot about Thorium 'molten salt' reactors and how safe they are, how the reaction needs to be kept going instead of continuing on its own by default - hence no possibility of meltdown. Also the waste product is not dangerous for 1000s of years, it actually has industrial uses. -
Xi Did Not Shake Hands With Prayut ‘Because Of Covid Measures’
ukrules replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I had a cold in 2020, apart from that, nothing, but I have been taking evasive measures thoughout the entire time. Quite successfully I might add, almost everyone I know has had covid either once or twice, mostly in the last 18 months. The medical community seems to have assigned less importance to what they term 'fomite' transmission which is how it might spread through touch instead of breathing it in. In fact some of them have come out and said it's negligible, as in it's technically possible. -
Xi Did Not Shake Hands With Prayut ‘Because Of Covid Measures’

He shook Trudeaus hand right after berating him for leaking all the details of their previous meeting to the press. Here's the video : So enen though Trudeau 'did the dirty' he still shook his hand. -

This won't happen until new safer reactors with a different type of fuel are used. We're talking decades from now and reactors that are nothing like those in use today. There won't be any fuel that requires 10,000 years of storage involved either. -
Yes, every now and again you need to put the foot down and demand something is done 100% correctly. In general I don't care if people do things wrong, so long as it's going to end up coming back on them. I've been surrounded by plenty of idiots my entire life, you get used to it after a while so unless it affects me directly I simply don't care about the obvious consequences of their follies - maybe they will learn in the end but I doubt it.

Xi Did Not Shake Hands With Prayut ‘Because Of Covid Measures’
ukrules replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Yes, I saw that Xi was speaking to Trudeau via a translator and giving a right 'talking to' for leaking the details of their previous meeting, but he shook his hand after the meeting. This is a snub. Likely because Xi is scared like a child of COVID and of course Prayuth was recently in touch with Hun Sen so the risk would be elevated but I prefer to think it's a snub all the same ????- 114 replies

Elite Visa renewal - potential issue.
ukrules replied to Jenkins9039's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
You're getting an extension of stay. I did one here in Hua Hin a week or two ago on my Elite visa. It's just a 1 year stamp. I last did a TM30 a few years ago and it's good forever or until you move house. -
Woman in "miracle escape" - all this damage because of a snake
ukrules replied to webfact's topic in Central Thailand
The damage doesn't look that bad really, it's mostly the 'crumple zone' of the car by the looks of the photos. It's called the crumple zone because it's supposed to do exactly what we can see in the photo -
9 O Clock in the morning, that's practically the middle of the night.

Twitter hit with mass resignations after Elon Musk's ‘hardcore’ ultimatum
ukrules replied to Scott's topic in World News
When Musk took over they had over 7500 employees, 100's have quit, so what? If 3000 or 4000 quit then I think he might have a problem, especially as he already culled 1000's of those who he deemed unneccessary. It's a private company now, so who cares what they do? If they feel the need to hire new staff then I'm sure there will be tens of thousands of people applying for the jobs. -
Concerns voiced over COVID Deltacron XBC sub-variant
ukrules replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
They sequenced its entire genome back in 2020, and have been doing so with samples on a very regular basis ever since, tracking the evolution of this microbe. -
Yeah, I kept hearing about how she was going to divorce him because surely she hates him and that was before he was elected president. Yet here we are 6 years later and she's still there. Why is that? Was it all a lies - surely not?

Concerns voiced over COVID Deltacron XBC sub-variant
ukrules replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Wrong, the original virus killed 100% of the mice which were especially 'altered' to be vulnerable to covid. This story has been twisted so far from the reality by people like you that the message has been completely missed. What they achieved here is changing a virus which killed 100% of mice into a virus that killed 80% of the mice. -

Just out of interest, do you think he was filming it or downloading it? -
