Bank of England raises rates to 2.25%, despite likely recession
billd766 replied to Scott's topic in World News
Would that be because Gordon Brown did so well with the UK when he was Chancellor and PM, before Labour was booted out the last time? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premiership_of_Gordon_Brown Do you remember this? https://www.bbc.com/news/av/uk-politics-24173270 As outgoing chief secretary to the Treasury following Labour's defeat in the 2010 general election, Liam Byrne famously left a note to his successor saying: "Dear Chief Secretary, I'm afraid that there is no money. Kind regards and good luck." https://www.buzzfeed.com/emilyashton/byrne-baby-byrne When Liberal Democrat MP David Laws became Treasury chief secretary in May 2010, his new private secretary handed him a sealed envelope. “Here’s something your predecessor left for you,” the civil servant said. Laws opened it with interest. “Dear Chief Secretary,” he read. “I’m afraid that there is no money. Kind regards and good luck! Liam.” Five years on, the hastily scrawled missive from Labour frontbencher Liam Byrne is still dominating the political agenda. For the Tories and Liberal Democrats, it's the perfect symbol of Labour’s supposed spending spree in office, which, they say, hugely inflated the deficit and precipitated the financial crisis. The note is mentioned by David Cameron and Nick Clegg in speech after speech, ministers relentlessly refer to it on TV, and parliamentary candidates rail against it at public meetings. The Conservatives never miss a chance to tweet about it. And you think that Labour should be back in power? -
No Coup Taking Place, Says Defence Ministry Spokesman

It worked back then but it is a bit dirty now. Rinse and repeat. -
The time to do this is when reforms and corruption in the police, military and civil service are fixed and projects like this can invest ALL of its budget on the project and NOT lose 30% or more to corruption.

Thaksin Wonders If Prawit Would Be Happy With Prayut’s Possible Comeback
billd766 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
IMHO, Thaksin would be welcomed in Thailand and be a far better alternative than the current mob who, over the course of the last 8 years, have led Thailand into the twilight zone and disaster area. This is, of course why he is the current government's #1 bogey man. Really? If Thaksin were in Thailand were in Thailand and there was a relatively free and fair election, who do you think would win it? Thaksin and his party, or Prayuth and the PPRP. Please remember that our opinions don't count, as only Thais can vote.- 13 replies

"Envious" Pit Bull called Nazi attacks - owner left in a pool of blood
billd766 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Not in Thailand but I think topic related. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-62949005 For days, a video has been making the rounds of social media in the southern Indian state of Kerala. It shows a man putting on running shoes and then making his way through an obstacle course - jumping over park benches, climbing walls and dodging traffic cones - while his friend cheers him on. "Is he training to join the army?" a woman watching the duo asks. "No, he's training to run from stray dogs," the friend replies. The satirical video, made by an ad agency, isn't unique - over the past few weeks, thousands of people in Kerala have forwarded memes and videos that express anger towards stray dogs. The reaction has been sparked by several recent reports of dogs - some of them pets - attacking people. Animal welfare activists and veterinarians say most people in Kerala do not have a friendly relationship with dogs and keep them at a distance. Thereis a lot more in the link. -

The OP knows how to build commission and integrate cellular base stations world wide. Do you? I have been in the cellular industry since 1987 and cut my teeth on 1G, if you know what that was. Many people know far more than me about computers because I was never an IT engineer, which is why when I get stuck I am not too proud to ask for help. Your post however, is of no help at all.

That is a good idea, I might try that.

"Envious" Pit Bull called Nazi attacks - owner left in a pool of blood
billd766 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
None of the dogs I had in Thailand ever bit me and over the years I must have had a dozen. NONE were pit bulls. None of the cats bit me either. So, NO it doesn't apply to any animal. You and all the other pit bull owners here can defend your dogs for as long as you like, but you cannot change reality. They ARE a dangerous breed. -

So all you need to do is to disprove the statistics and all will be well in the world, until of course the next pit bull attack. -

I am still finding my way around the upgraded Win 10, which is much the same as the older version, except this version seems to update anytime someone as much as sneezes. I followed your instructions and this is what I have. It looks as though I don't have 5G WiFi While the system still works though the download isn't what I hoped, I will come back to this thread and have a better idea of what I need. Thank you for your help once again, and to all the other posters who helped as well.
