Trump did. To kill covid.

Made a 11:00 am appointment for retirement renewal in Jomtien about a month ago, not 8:30 like most. Gave me time to get the bank letter with a transaction that day. Showed up at 10:45. Got the same nonsense as the OP about still needing to fall in line to get number. Screw this I thought. Went to the door to the old building, showed my appointment printout and was allowed entery. Then went to the two girls at the far end of section 8 (there's a joke there but I won't pursue it) where you normally pick up your passport after it has been stamped. They got me to one of the processing staff as soon as one freed up. So lesson learned: ignore the queue and go directly to section 8. No problem at all.

Update: My Schwab International account is now open. The only documents required were a copy of my Canadian passport and a copy of my last k-bank statement. I screwed up initially and sent the locked pdf statement from k-bank which Schwab was obviously unable to open. After they received the unlocked statement it was only a day or two until it was open. A mutual fund from Vanguard is currently being transferred to fund the account. 3-4 days they say. I've added a US address as the mailing address. As soon as they've updated this on the account, I'll add a cash account which will get the Schwab ATM card.

Of course you're not capable of watching it yourself and making up your own mind. You need to wait for the right-wing spin telling what to think.

You better back this up with a link. I can personally confirm from my high school days that once a week it has full effects every time. -

You gave them your card info by voice and not electronically? If you did you only have yourself to blame. -

With Nikki dropping out (soon) there's lots of people that aren't ardent Trump followers to accomplish that. -

Who cares what the Trump supporters think? They're voting for Trump regardless. Trump's problem is that the number of his supporters is not getting any larger. -
Culture of "Value"

So obvious answer: buy the 600k incredible luxury unit next door. Moving to the new unit would be simple. -

All this current talk on using electronics implanted in the brain that then control body functions remind me of a sci-fi book I read (Niven I think) decades ago. Clearly if they can read info from the brain, they could also use the technology to stimulate the brain. There are pleasure centers that could be stimulated to cause orgasms, get you high, etc. Push a button and come. Push a button and get high, with no lung issues. Etc. The sky is the limit. Legalize wireheading!

Florida is swamped by disease outbreaks as quackery replaces science
gargamon replied to Social Media's topic in World News
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.- 60 replies

I'm a bit unclear on what you're trying to say. Maybe you could expand it a bit so I could understand.

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.

Mitch McConnell to step down as Senate Republican leader in November
gargamon replied to Social Media's topic in World News
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.
