  1. Call it what you will. Darwin awards for them all. Evolution in action. Too stupid to get vaccinated? This is what happens. And for the right wing morons that are trying to blame the “illegal immigrants“ (better called legal asylum seekers), the problem is not just in Florida. Canada, with few illegal immigrants, is having similar problems with measles in the unvaccinated idiots.
  2. I'm a bit unclear on what you're trying to say. Maybe you could expand it a bit so I could understand.
  3. I saw you the other day. Huge falang with man boobs and no shirt. Please stop going out in public.
  4. They're looking for a reason to get you kicked out of Thailand. What did you do? Annoy them with useless drivel?
  5. Here's how it works. Each VPN provider has a pool of IP addresses at each server that it gives one of to your connection when you connect to that server. Once the provider (BBC in this case) determines your IP is in one of the pools it will block you. I recently switched from nordvpn due to their ridiculous renewal policy that charges full price when you renew. My new VPN, torguard has a renewal policy which gives you the rate you signed up at automatically at renewal. Anyway, I was having the same problem as the OP, but not with the BBC. Torguard assigned me a fixed IP address that was not in any pool that will never be caught by the BBC, etc. Because I was about to cancel, they did not charge for this feature that is normally extra. So 3 years for $66 and renewal at the same rate when that expires.
  6. How can this be news? There wasn't a Brit or a Russian involved.
  7. I hate to say it but Mitch is one of the few sane Republicans left. His replacement will no doubt be from the MAGA camp. The inevitable outcome if they get back in power will be the loss of democracy in the US and the autocracies around the world taking over.
  8. Oh my. I could be in trouble. I've taken sperm to both Laos and Cambodia and donated much in both countries. Oh my.
  9. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2788316 First couple of episodes available. Not sure if it's been mentioned yet. When a mysterious European ship is found marooned in a nearby fishing village, Lord Yoshii Toranaga discovers secrets that could tip the scales of power and devastate his enemies. Imdb currently 9.4 with over 200 votes.
  10. Don't know anything about stocks or mutual funds huh? No taxes paid until you sell, except for the dividends of course.
  11. That 2015 article you reference was based fully or in part on Trump's own property assessments. And we all now know how accurate Trump's assessments are. That said, I agree with your premise. If Trump had put the $400 million he got from his father in an S&P 500 index fund he'd be much richer now. Add in the suitcases of cash his daddy put into the money hemorrhaging Trump casinos in Atlantic city and he'd be even richer. S&P 500 has averaged over 10% gain per year since I began putting money there in 1985.
  12. What's with the Walking Dead? The new spinoff is starting to drop. Are the viewers so stupid they need to have 5 minutes of explaining what the episode was about at the end of each one? Hmmm. Probably.
  13. EV charging stations should be everywhere. And it should be pay as you go. I foresee the solution to be a number of charging stations on the periphery of the condos, not paid for by the condo association but some company that arranges and maintains the units. Kind of like the water dispensers that are everywhere. Who wants to start a business?
  14. K-bank app allows you to set the daily limit right in the app without any intervention at an actual branch. Used it a couple of weeks ago and transferred 650k in one transaction, no problem at all. After the transfer I set it back to 50k limit. Not sure about BKK bank. I quit them a while back. And I find k-bank much better than BKK bank.
  15. Make a will here. Make your gf the executor. Make your gf the only beneficiary. Problem solved. Make sure you trust the gf!
  16. Thanks all. I'll pick up something on lazada or shopee.
  17. It can be very expensive to get all those extra amps needed to charge 1 car, let alone many in the same condo at the same time. No condo association should even consider it. You want to drive an EV, make sure you have somewhere to plug it in before you buy one.
  18. I need a couple of network cables around 10 meters long, whatever the latest spec is, cat5 cat6, etc. Anywhere in Pattaya that can do this? Thanks
  19. Only bring what you need when you need it, with a bit of a cushion of course. When you kick off it's much easier to control where the money goes in your home country than in Thailand.
  20. Yes, that Vietnamese civet coffee is wonderful.
  21. That would be what, 1.14 gazillion dollars? $114,000,000,000,000. Even Musk doesn't have that much coin.
