    I wonder if he thanked the British Ambassador for the B1.1.7 strain which is making up 98% of cases in Thailand currently?

     

    I would expect so, they've done nothing but kiss Chinas ass since the virus emerged.

    A bit odd to see the phrase 'British Ambassador' and 'kiss Chinas ass' together here.

    2 million doses secured in 4 months...only 98 million left to be secured by month end...piece of cake!

     

    Add the administration's incompetence to the people's reluctance, and a 30% target by year end appears optimistic...

    'administration's incompetence'  Now if you'd said 'administration's incontinence, I'd have known you were talking about Prawit.

    Channel 3 TV news reported that the PM said that 100 million doses would be in the arms of people in Thailand by the end of 2021. 

    They then went on to confirm the PMs track record in order to back up his claim:

    From 2017 with the high-speed Chinese railway which is due to open Bangkok to Korat any day now.

    After the débâcle with the Covid call centre problems, his resolution in 2015 to introduce 911 as the main emergency number.

    He must rank as the most incompetent liar on the planet right now.  Someone compared him with Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhaf, for his comment "what tanks, I see no tanks". At least that Iraqi went on to surrender. Prayut will not go that easily until his master decides otherwise. 

    Saeed al-Sahhaf, also known as Comical Ali.

    So what adjective fits in with Prayut?

    farcical, funny, hilarious, humoristic, humorous, hysterical.

    If I was asked, I'd go for farcical Prayut or hysterical Prayut.

     

    'Prayut will not go that easily until his master decides otherwise.'

    It appears that farcical Prayut is available on the HMV label at an ineffective government near you.

    I dont think anyone "decided" at all, its just an attribute of the theme employed by the software company.

    Is there an option to customise it by Tech Doctor?

    I'm probably in a minority anyway. I'm by no means blind, but it's not as easy to read. (Unless it's something else that's changed?)

    No it isnt. There are no individual user settings for that. (That I know of)

    Hmm, OK.

    I wonder why it was decided to make it harder-to-read for us crumblies with not so good eyesight?

     

    Another member I email said exactly the same thing without me mentioning it. He said it has reduced the time he spends on TVF because of it.

     

    I hope no one suggests increasing the contrast on my display, as then everything else will be too high-contrast.
