  1. I have that problem. However with Windows 10 you can go to I get a white script on a black background and this makes it easy to read. You can also go to Settings Ease of Access and make text bigger you can also make everything bigger 100% MS recommended, 125%, 150% and 175%. System Display Scale and layout and adjust the size of the text, apps and other items to 100% MS recommended, 125%, 150% and 175%. I hope that this will help you. At this point I have Windows 10. I have no idea about Windows 11, other than it should be similar.
  2. Actually the Thai people have NOT voted at all. A party within the opposition has joined with a smaller party and foolish let the smaller party into power.
  3. IMO, Anutin and the BJT are snakes in the grass. Normally snakes are reasonably predictable. If you leave them alone they will leave you alone. Anutin was quite happy to get into power with the the PTP until it suited him to jump away simply to gain power and ministerial seats. Then he joined the opposition for a short while before joining with the PPP and now it seems that he will be the PM. There is nothing and nobody to stop him, other than yet another military coup, if he gets into power and then decides to dump the PPP. Which takes me back to the snakes again. At least with Thaksin and the PTP, they were fairly predictable whether you liked them or not.
  4. And if he does renege on the agreement, what happens then?
  5. And who elected him? AFAIK there has been NO general election. The Privy Council is only an advisory body to the King. AFAIR neither the EC nor the CC has the power to elect a government. so how come Anutin has been "elected" as the PM? Now if there IS a general election the political party which wins the most seats at the election gets the first chance to elect a government. If they cannot form a government on their own or in a coalition within a certain period, it then falls to the party with the next highest number of seats etc. The only other choice is an unelected and unopposed military coup. Anutin and the BJP are IMO only slightly better than a military coup, and then ONLY after a general election is held. The PPP may regret what they have done, but it will be too late by then.
  6. And what will Trump do? Stamp his feet? Have a hissy fit? Throw his toys out of the pram?
  7. Are there any experts left that Trump hasn't fired yet?
  8. So you have manged to come up with one dissenting doctor (who AFAIK has not worked for the CDC) yet take his word over that of 1,000 doctors who HAVE worked for the CDC and know what they are talking about; You have the choice of believing a very tiny minority of one or the majority of 1,000. I know whose advice I would take, and it wouldn't be the minority of one.
  9. You may need to read up on giving land which is NOT yours to somebody who has invaded your country, killed many of its citizens and even stolen some children for "re-education" and adoption.
  10. Thus speaks yet another military genius who believe that he knows more and is smarter than the rest of the worlds leaders.
  11. I suppose that would depend on what files are released and are unredacted. If you believe the US government there are no files, but there may be. If there are Epstein no files then why were 33,000 pages released for public scrutiny? If there are NO Epstein files why is Trump still trying to supress them? If Trump is not mentioned in the files, why is he so concerned about them? If I were Epstein I don't think that I would have left only 1 set of files. I would have at least 10 sets hidden in completely different places. I would also have ensured to my best efforts that ALL the participants would stick around, just in case something happened to me, And it DID happen to Epstein.
  12. Give @Red Phoenixsome credit for scraping the barrel for searching for so long to find somebody to rebut the facts. It must have been harder than actually reading and believing the facts.
  13. Y There is always the possibility that over a thousand employees are correct, and RFK Jr with NO medical qualifications is wrong. Of course this must be incorrect as Trump ONLY chooses the best of the best. 😆 🤣
  14. The best thing that Starmer could do is to sack her and try to find someone else who id honest and squeaky clean to replace her. At the same time he could sack and replace Rachel from accounts, who is no use to man or beast. It is no use waiting for them to resign, as they won't. They will simply stay and brazen it out.
  15. Perhaps it is not Immigration as a whole entity but just some offices. I have used the office in Mae Sot originally, then the office in Nakhon Sawan for several years when it opened (they were very good), then for the last few years I have used Kamphaeng Phet when it opened, I have chased the KPP office around KPP as it moved 4 times. It now seems to have a permanent home on the route 1 north of the city. The office is very good and very helpful but the only small problem is the disabled parking slot. Every other parking slot has a cover from the rain and sun except that one. Other than that it is a great immigration office.
  16. I have just done a search on my Bangkok Bank for August 2025 (no transfers in September yet) and each transfer is shown as an International Transfer on my pc. I do internet transfers on my pc and have NO app on my smartphone. Sure. for Long Term Thailand Stay it gets to my account on the next banking day at around 2pm as it has done for the last 5 or 6 years with only one problem in the first year, which was easily sorted out by a phone call. It seems yo me that the problem happens when the banking app is used on the smartphone, but it rarely, if ever, happens on the pc. I use internet banking as the nearest Bangkok Bank is 65km away. Also I get an OTP SMS on my mobile to confirm the action before it happens.
  17. IMHO, other than yet another military coup in a long line of military coups, Anutin and the BJT party are the worst thing that can happen to Thailand.
  18. Yet the Privy Council, including Prayuth (who led the last military coup) seems to have no problems accepting any illegal military coup. Nor did the Privy Council abolish the last constitution and get a new one written. There are too many fingers in the pie of dissolution and elections. IMHO most of them are unnecessary and seem to be just "jobs for the boys".
  19. You are correct. Your post is complete BS, but only to be expected from a Trump and a MAGA supporter.
  20. So you are quite happy that food lies unpicked and rotting, and that Americans will have to pay more for their food. Nice. Do you actually live in the USA?
  21. However the world in reality, including Palestine, moves on. Stick in the mud's like you, stay in the past.
