Air fryers are fantastic, I recently discovered them, the texture of the food comes out completely different than an oven, when you cook fish with an air fryer it comes out nice and crispy, sliced potatoes turn out brilliant. I do all kinds of slice vegetables like carrots drizzled with olive oil with a little bit of herbs and some sea salt, absolutely delicious. My guess is that if you're using a high quality oil like olive oil that it remains unsaturated after cooking, so it's likely quite healthy. I bought a good one made by Sharp, it has a 8 liter tray which I love, and I think it was close to 3,000 baht and worth every single baht. Don't buy a cheap one, that pretty much applies with all appliances and kitchen gadgets.

‘It doesn’t matter now if they are children’
spidermike007 replied to bannork's topic in The War in Israel
Yes. They are both in Israel. Then again most Israelis are people of color, as their genetic strand is almost completely Arab. Very little difference. Some will throw out the Ashkenazi and the Sephardic argument, but multiple tests have shown that their DNA is nearly identical. -
UK Gender Rule Showdown: Legal Clash over Schools and Prisons
spidermike007 replied to webfact's topic in World News
Maybe I am old fashioned. I have many gay and lesbian friends, and most I know are really wonderful people. And I have met a number of ladyboys over the years, casually. Cannot really relate to that culture, but to each his own. It is a huge and highly accepted culture here. All good. It is the other ones I am having an increasingly hard time comprehending. And not only all of the myriad of designations, but the whole PC culture surrounding the designation, the insistence on us using the right terminology, and all the rest that goes along with the uber PC acceptance stuff. When I grew up if you liked guys you were either gay or bisexual. Now? The US is by far the most tolerant country in the world when it comes to the whole trans, non-binary, amorosexual, decide whatever you want today, if it fits mentality. No other country is as loose, driftless, and as silly as the US, except maybe the UK. Maybe. When a woman devotes her entire youth to a sport, and becomes one of the best in that particular area, and then a man comes along who decides to identify as a woman, and steals all the awards, all the victories, and all the accolades, something is not right in society. Something is broken, society has become morally bankrupt, and there has to be a pause, there has to be an interruption of the nonsense. No woman would survive more than 30 minutes in the NFL. Women will not participate in men's sports because they won't be able to handle the physical endurance required, nor the brutality, nor the talent level. A woman ranked #5 on the WTA could not beat a #758 man on the ATP as John McEnroe so truthfully stated. Hopefully all this craziness will pass and we'll return to some form of normalcy and indecency. -
Ukraine Zelensky: Russia Stalls Peace; Trump Pushes Ukraine Deal!
spidermike007 replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
Of course Russia was going to stall, Trump made it so easy for Putin to do whatever he wanted in this scenario, by easing the pressure, by treating him so kindly, and by conducting very poor negotiations. Trump failed. Let's give him an F grade. -
Tourism Thailand's Tourism Faces Setback with 7% Arrival Drop
spidermike007 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Tourism is down no doubt, everywhere I go people complain about smaller crowds and lower spending. The previous administrations could have done much to have bolstered tourism, as there were a dozen different areas that needed to be addressed, but due to sloth, arrogance, and hubris nothing was ever done to improve the situation. Now with the ridiculously high baht and the faltering economy worldwide, things are even worse. -
Report Warm smiles, a ride in the Beast and a united front but no deal

That agreed to which Trump is failing so far, 7 months into this administration is quite astonishing, and it seems like the majority of Americans agree. -
Video Famous Michelin Eatery Probed Over B4,000 Omelette Charge

I guess I'm just not the sort of person that responds to hype, or fads, so I've never really sought out restaurants with the Micheline star. If I see a crowd at the door or if the hostess says there's a 30 minute wait to get a table I literally turn around and run for the hills, or seek another restaurant. I literally do not have enough time left in this lifetime to wait even 30 minutes for a table, or on any line, and the social media hype means less than zero to me. -

I would guess a lot of the Jews on AN do not support the Israeli aggression and genocide. It seems to be mostly white supremacists who love the idea of getting rid of minorities and people of color. -
Politics Thai MP Apologises for Remarks on Buddhist Funding Debate
spidermike007 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Just more outrage netizens stirring up a tempest in a teapot, these are snowflakes with ultra thin skin and they take everything personally. It's a very pathetic thing to witness, mankind seems to be getting weaker by the day, largely due to (SMD) the social media disease. And this guy is absolutely correct, these monks should not be treated like anybody special ,they're just guys with orange robes that are supposed to be spending a lot of time in meditation and contemplation, and helping society. -
FBI redacted Trump's name in Epstein files
spidermike007 replied to bannork's topic in Political Soapbox
Of course Patel the bootlicker would order this. Trump is ass guilty as they come and has alot to hide. He was a sex freak and would have very likely been unable to say no to a gorgeous 16 year old.- 177 replies

That is cute. And you honestly think Hitler would have honored the terms of a peace deal, and the Holocaust would not have happened, or perhaps even on a much larger scale? A piece deal with Hitler that's about 50 times less likely than a peace deal with Putin. They're both maniacs, it's just that Hitler was 1000x worse.

Report Thais Lose Faith in Political Parties as Hope Fades, Poll Shows
spidermike007 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Of course they are discouraged. Pita was exactly what this country needed, and that's why he was not allowed to run things. The people wanted him, but the oligarchs and morally bankrupt did not. And Thailand is not going in circles at this stage, it is going backwards. I think in this life if you're not moving forward you're moving backwards, it is just the nature of momentum. The Army is playing it smart at this point by establishing and maintaining a certain degree of control, that Thaksin granted them by selling his soul, his party, and his people in exchange for his freedom. The time is coming, when this will no longer be tolerated. Just wait. The army is on it's way out. It could take awhile, and it could get ugly, though it will never get to the hellish level of Burma, as the Thai parents would never, ever permit that kind of genocidal behavior from their sons. You take out one Thai, and you are forever disowned by this family. That is all it would take to bring about mass defections from the army ranks. That would sure be fun to witness. Are the pompous generals going to put themselves into harms way? Never. They do not have it in them, they are total cowards. The progressive political party won the most seats at the last election in 2023, but was blocked from forming a government by conservative forces in the military-appointed Senate. A rather astonishing bit of continued regression. And we certainly know who is behind it. Woe are the people of Thailand.
