Thai food’s bold blend of flavours: A culinary delight with a fatal bite
pacovl46 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
If you can't see why I've interpreted your post the way I did then I can't help you, but it definitely came across as Thai bashing. -
Thai food’s bold blend of flavours: A culinary delight with a fatal bite
pacovl46 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
So what? It’s still an over-generalization, it’s still stereotyping and you utterly missed my point, which was, people all over the globe from all races make stupid decisions on a daily basis. It’s not just an occurrence in Thailand or the Isaan for that matter! And by the way, there’s nothing you can tell me about Thailand that I don’t already know myself. -

Yep, here we have it again, an absolutely cretinous overgeneralizing stereotype of how stupid and uneducated Thais are and how educated and superior the west is. How many people die again in the west every year because they eat like pigs and are massively overweight, and how many people die of drugs, smoking and or drinking, despite the fact that they are SO EDUCATED on the adverse effects of smoking, drinking and co? But of course you conveniently blend that out because it doesn't suit the view from your high horse! -

Well, it kills 20000 people a year in an area that has how many millions of inhabitants who eat that dish regularly? I wouldn't eat it, but I guess smoking and drinking kills a lot more people every year. -
How it works exactly I don't know, but what I do know is that it takes a lot of electricity, which is why the favor was in gasoline and diesel. Solar panels have become a lot more efficient, though. The problem with electroc propulsion is that it's not a viable option for trucks, which is why Daimler AG is looking into hydrogen. Apparently Toyota, BMW and Audi are developing hydrogen technology as well. Porsche developed recently a fuel that produces no CO2 emissions. Maybe that's the future because apparently this fuel works with regular combustion engines so nothing would need to be changed.

Outrage over Abbas's antisemitic speech on Jews and Holocaust

So are your comments! Every single interaction I had with you over the years made me question your intelligence! So please, don't ever reply to me again! -
No one said it's perfect. Obviously it comes with drawbacks as well, just like any other type of propulsion

From someone who has had tinnitus for over 3 decades now because of exposing myself to loud music in a club I was working at for several years: There's absolutely nothing you can do about it. If you had it for that long, it's gonna stay. The good news is, you'll get used to it and eventually will only hear it I f you focus on it. It will also stop to annoy you. Took me about 3 months or so, if I remember correctly. It's been a long time. Maybe they'll be able to invent some sort of noise canceling device in the near future, but honestly, once you're used to it, it becomes a non-issue. The first few weeks were the worst for me because it kept me from falling asleep and I let that get to me, but eventually you just gotta accept and learn to love with it and move on. But there's other causes for tinnitus as well other than loud noises, maybe that can be made to go away. I've never looked into that.

No, you don't say? Apparently you fail to see the hypocrisy! Israel still expects Germany to pay annual reparations for something that ended almost 8 decades ago. And they won't let the world forget it either, yet, they're doing more or less exactly the same thing to the population of the Gaza Strip, minus the gas chambers. They're not one hair better, yet, every chance they get they play the victim and they'll continue to do so until eternity. And if they don't get what they want, like for example when Austria, which also payed reparations to Israel, said a while ago that they've paid enough and stopped the payments, Israel expelled the Austrian ambassador from Israel. Sulking like babies. Germany should do the same thing and stop paying. None of the people whose tax money goes to Israel had anything to with what went down back then. I'd be totally fine with Germany giving that money to the Gaza Strip instead, you know, reparations for what Israel is doing to them! Enough They were the victims once, but they've mutated into the oppressor a long time ago . -

You obviously totally missed my point! -
Right. That's why some major car manufacturers are already looking into hydrogen because it's so unfeasible. We'll talk again in 10 years.
-
I wasn't talking to you!

So what? Sales fluctuate and that's true for every single car manufacturer and every single car model ever built! Why do you think manufacturers come out with new generations of their car models every few years? Because the current generation doesnt sell anymore. Tesla never had any generational updates of any of their models ever apart from the Roadster, but that one isnt one the matket, yet. Offering the same car for ten years without at least one or two facelifts like they used to back in the day doesnt fly anymore in this "fast" culture we have these days.

You conveniently forgot to mention all the silver and rare earth metals that need to be mined to produce the batterie packs for electric vehicles, which you wouldn't have to nearly as much with conventional combustion engines that use hydrogen as fuel. Plus, you don't have to wait for 5 hours until a charging plug becomes free at a charging station on your way to the beach or Mexico or wherever you wanna drive to on holiday because there's ten guys waiting in front of you, plus it doesnt take 45 minutes on top of your waiting time to recharge your battery to 85%, plus you won't have to fork out 8K or more when you eventually have to replace the battery pack on your EV, plus the value retention of a regular car will be higher because it won't be needing a new battery pack for 8K and they will be much easier to sell too, becsuse no one wants to buy an EV only to have to invest 8K in a new battery pack, plus where do all the dead battery packs go? And the list goes on and on!

While he is totally wrong with his statement, the Israelis cant really play the victim anymore because of what they're doing do the Gaza Strip. Its essentially a concentration camp minus the gas chambers. -
There is already an alternative. It's the hydrogen combustion engine and I don't mean the variant that is essentially just another electric vehicle, but the internal combustion variant, which produces nothing but water as exhaust fumes. We have had that technology since the 90s. The problem so far has always been that producing the hydrogen was much more expensive than producing fossil fuels because it needs a lot of electricity. But since solar panels have come a long way since then and countries like the US have large parts of their country that's almost always sunny, hydrogen is now feasible. While I love the sound of V8s, is it really still necessary to drive cars that guzzle 25 liters per every 100 kilometers/ do 5 miles per gallon?! There's quite a lot that can be done or at the very least be improved.

They're part of the "Last Generation!" All they do is block traffic with that stupid bull...t. The entire nation hates them. Munich just passed a law that makes it illegal to do that in their city. Germany should make it illegal nationwide and punish it with 5 years imprisonment. That would stop that nonsense very quickly. What pisses me off the most is that the firefighters have to come in and cut them off the road because superglue on its own didn't do the trick well enough, so now they mix it with concrete. So now they actually have to cut them out of the road and then fix the road as well afterwards. And all of that in the name of "protecting the planet"! It's utterly brainless!

Well, America is one of the biggest polluters on this planet, any type of improvement they would make would definitely be for the better. Having said that, I don't think mankind can actually stop climate change. Also, there has been periods in Earth's history where it's been on average 15 degrees warmer than now and it wasn't that long ago and mankind still survived. It's one big cycle that comes and goes. But then again, to think that mankind hasn't sped up that process since it became industrialized is just silly and it can't continue that way it is now.
