    Well, point taken, and I have flown Biz class on longer flights (Oz to BKK etc) but hardly worth the cost on a 2hr flight from Hong Kong.

    Plenty of reasonable French red and white wines available on EK in cattle class.

    Wasn't it immigration cattle class you were complaining about? Avoided if you fly business.

    Thailand remains faithful to it's shameful record of the highest road accident death toll in the world. Sad for the victims. If only Police corruption was stopped and the cops started to do their jobs,  instead of chasing only the foreigners to racket money.

    More inaccurate bar stool info. Thanks.

    Where are your topics darling?

     Much more fulfilling to snipe than post useless topics that make me look a fool.

    Like I said that's their problem. The only thing at issue here it seems to me is whether the new Trump shares will factor into the issuance of an appeal bond before 'sundown' MON.

    Sorry to burst your bubble(oooh, that's a lie) but Trump has no access to sell those shares until 6 months after the IPO. Maybe be can get someone to give him money for future access to the shares but with Trump's history of failed IPOs that's doubtful.

  5. Just finished opening and funding a Schwab International account. Canadian passport and foreign proof of address were all that was required to open. 25k minimum to fund. I transfered a few existing Vanguard retirement funds recently, when they needed my SSN. SSN not required to open the account initially or do normal transactions. My Schwab ATM card is in the mail. 

     

    Not available in all countries of residence. Canada , no. Thailand, yes. But a Canadian in Thailand is ok.

  6. Use a linux live boot USB and then you have access to the “dd' command which does all you need.

     

    Then, after you see how much better it is running Linux, just install it and get rid of the windows nonsense.

    Ok soy-boy, it’s obvious we have different versions of patriotism. 

    Ooh. Somebody learned a new word. Who explained it to your high school diploma'd(if you're lucky) educated mind? Like all the MAGA rubes, another simple and unsophisticated low-life. 

     

    Soy boy is a pejorative term sometimes used in online communities to describe men perceived to be lacking masculine characteristics. The term bears many similarities and has been compared to the slang terms cuck (derived from cuckold), nu-male and low-T ("low testosterone") – terms sometimes used as an insult for male femininity by online communities.

     

    Come on over, I'll show you how masculine I am.
