Apple was forced by the EU to change to the USB-C standard - not for the Apple's love of their users! But is it 100% compatible with ALL USB-C cables? A little bird whispered that its not - but needs confirmation. Article

iPhone 15 Pro's overheating issues can't be resolved without dialing down performance apparently. Many users and reviewers have noticed that the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max have a tendency to get hot quickly. And this doesn't just happen when you are pushing the phones to their limits. Even tasks that are not resource intensive, such as using social media apps or chat apps, make the phones toasty. An analyst thinks this is happening because of the Pro line's lighter design. Link

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patty Whack. "Miss Whack, I'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday." Patty looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name. The frog says his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it's okay, he knows the bank manager. Patty explains that he will need to secure the loan with some collateral. The frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny porcelain elephant, about an inch tall, bright pink, and perfectly formed. Very confused, Patty explains that she'll have to consult with the bank manager and disappears into a back office. She finds the manager and says, "There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000, and he wants to use this as collateral." She holds up the tiny pink elephant. "I mean, what in the world is this?" The bank manager looks back at her and says, "It's a knickknack, Patty Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man's a Rolling Stone." (You sang it, didn't you? Yeah, I know you did!)

Yes. Times have changed. Today we can't ride a bicycle without a helmet and protective clothing (branded of course) even down a remote country road...

Yes, an open door on a moving BTS is not normal. None of us here know the exact reason for this incident. But, reading thru some posts, the Thai and Chinese bashings are very obvious. This world is not perfect. Technology can fail- it has happened before, happens now and will happen in the future. Remember a space ship exploded a couple of minutes after it was launched? Yes, this is part of life - None of us are perfect.

Hotels for 150 - 400? An hourly rate? Care to share the places? 555

Not really seriousness. Just an observation of the behaviour in the 'community'. People with intelligence are curious and wants to know why, IMHO.

The confusion and sadness increased with anonymity - maybe a counselling service is required!

Absolutely correct. Walking and been familiar with your immediate surrounding is very useful and enlightening.

Would a fake Rolex do the trick?

Cant be too sure. He might outlive all of us!

Was it proven beyond any doubt? What exactly the entire incident? Seems there is long story to this? Of course - Never will a govt. sanctioned, politically motivated killing of another country's citizen on their home soil be acceptable. But wild accusations on a global platform is a very amateurish and irresponsible deed - no matter who does it IMHO. I never implied the killing was justified! - sorry. Article

Miss Beatrice, the church organist, was in her eighties. She was admired for her sweetness and kindness to all. One afternoon the pastor came to call on her and she showed him into her quaint sitting room. She invited him to have a seat while she prepared tea. As he sat facing her old Hammond organ, the young minister noticed a cut-glass bowl sitting on top of it. The bowl was filled with water, and in the water floated, of all things, a condom! When she returned with tea and scones, they began to chat. The pastor tried to stifle his curiosity about the bowl of water and its strange floater, but soon it got the better of him and He could no longer resist. "Miss Beatrice", he said, "I wonder if you would tell me about this?" pointing to the bowl. "Oh, yes," she replied, "Isn't it wonderful? I was walking through the Park a few months ago and I found this little package on the ground. The directions said to place it on the organ, keep it wet and that it would prevent the spread of disease. Do you know I haven't had the flu all winter?" ????????

Are the big hooters the the problem?

I pray, you are not living in Thailand or even dreaming of visiting there.

“After being married for 50 years, I took a careful look at my wife one day and said, ‘Fifty years ago we had a cheap house, a junk car, slept on a sofa bed and watched a 10-inch black and white TV, but I got to sleep with a hot 23-year-old girl every night. Now, I have a $500,000 home, a $45,000 car, a nice big bed and a large screen TV, but I'm sleeping with a 69-year-old woman. It seems to me that you're not holding up your side of things.’ My wife is a very reasonable woman. She told me to go out and find a hot 23-year-old girl and she would make sure that I would once again be living in a cheap house, driving a junk car, sleeping on a sofa bed and watching a 10-inch black and white TV. Aren't older women great? They really know how to solve an old guy's problems.”

Absolute reality.

Please... Just think about Canada and India right now. The world is changing... accept it.

Unbelievable! Now Humans are worried about their water intake! How does the other animals , insects, etc exist?
