Not entirely so. Hydrogen production can be easily accomplished in a nuclear power plant. In fact, many new SMR designs include a hydrogen production plugin, as well as desalination plugin. Using a nuclear reaction for production of other desirables just increases its efficiency.

Thaksin? Isn't he supposed to stay out of politics as part of his parole? Could somebody maybe leave a complaint with CC and had him banned for life, please? Is he now the official spokesman of the party?

That is just bloody ridiculous. A normal Chefs kitchen knife is more dangerous in skilled hands than those little toys. Are the utility outdoor knives prohibited too? How do you transport one home if you buy it in the shop. Time to get a baseball bat and wrap it in concertina wire and some razor blades for good measure. <deleted> them all, I would buy a gun too, just in spite. Americans are right in this case. "If you ban the guns and knives, only the criminals will have those."

I am an avid Japanese AV(id) (good pun, eh) collector since many years but have never heard about any of the ladies here. Checking my normal AV sites, couldn't find many and all censored... no thanks. But realizing that there are 6,000 new girls entering the AV business every year, it might not be surprising. But what about the real "heavy" weights of the Japanese AV industry, like Hitomi Tanaka, Anri Okita, or even Anju Akane, just to name a few of my favs. If they ain't comin, I ain't going.....

Some videos are de-censored by the avplayer, but the quality is not that great. There are many uncensored Japanese AV available. Apparently there is a loophole in the Japanese porn legislation that allows the uncensored raw footage to be exported. Several Japanese AV companies have established themselves abroad. They then import the raw footage, edit and make the uncensored AV available to the masses. Might get banned if I tell you the companies though...

I don't work for the bank. Already said the minimum balance is GBP5,000. No monthly fees if above that. For other info, just call them on +44 (0) 1624 641 888. 9am to 5pm UK time. Happy now????? URL to their UK & Overseas residents :https://www.santanderinternational.co.uk/international/ Double happy now?????

I keep much less that that with them, usually GBP10,000 to GBP 20,000. They have not complained. Are you sure you're reading requirements for private customers, and not the corporate? In fact I have never held that much in that account. Mind you, I've been their customer, and previous incarnations since Tyndall IoM since 1980's. I know that they want you to keep a minimum of GBP5,000. Less than that ,they will charge you a small fee.

Check on their webpage, or give them a call. They have been always very helpful whenever I called them.

Move your account to Santander International on Isle of Man. Haven't had any problems with them so far.

I just finished watching 3 seasons of “From Dusk Till Dawn”, a 2014 TV series, a spin-off of the Quentin Tarantino movie by the same name. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3337194/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_3_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_from%20dusk https://www.imdb.com/video/vi1531293721/?playlistId=tt3337194&ref_=tt_ov_vi I am not a great fan of the vampire genre, but I did like the movie and the TV series did not disappoint. Plenty of action, adventure, drama, and vampirical blood splatter. Highly recommended for all Vampirical fans. The famous Cheech Marin “kitty” speech in front of the Titty Twister bar from the original movie is there, but slightly toned down for the TV series. If nothing else, you can also feast your eyes on the ever so sexy and gorgeous Eiza Gonzales, as the vampire queen Santanico. The series is by Netflix, but I don’t think they stream it anymore. Unfortunately, it might be difficult to find on the P2P network, and it’s not well seeded. It took me a few weeks to get all the episodes.

Ladyboy spelunking???? Have never heard about any ladyboy exploring caves...

Well, in Thailand a convicted criminal can be a sitting MP....

Bla bla bla... all political BS. Just talk the talk, but never walk the walk....

Just transferred some money last week. Unfortunately had to do it on a Friday because I needed the money on Monday. And as noted by Wise, the money arrived after 14:00 on Monday. No problems there. That is from UK to my Bangkok Bang account.

The one from 2006, or the new movie Andromeda from 2022? Give us a link to IMDB please.

Last episode of "Hotel Cocaine" just dropped. "Tells the story of Roman Compte, Cuban exile, CIA operative, and general manager of the Hotel Mutiny, the glamorous epicenter of the late '70s and early '80s Miami cocaine scene." https://www.imdb.com/title/tt17676706/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 Contemporary with "Scarface". Good action and drama.

Well, probably not many, if any, AI bots. But a fair amount of Chinese and PRK 5 cent bloggers, probably no Russians yet, only commie supporters. They all come out of woodwork, like cockroaches, when there is a topic started that is against the official policy. Just remember what was posted when Dalai Lama was visiting Thailand some years back. And how they all scattered when the the topic run it's cause.

I don't think Thais should be insulted. It's the Americans that should be insulted by this video, showing them off as a bunch of idiots as soon as they leave their home country. But, let's face it, it's that Jewish comedy style that is so prevalent now in comedy movies. Anybody watched Dumb & Dumber, or The Interview?

There are tones of AV sites that are not blocked and can be accessed with any browser without VPN. Many much better than PornHub. They just can't block them all, it's too many of them, and new ones popping up all the time. Not even to mention all the image sites.

Thanks for the update Ombra. Looks like the Immigration appointment booking site is broken, of some parts of it at least. I'm coming from further south than you, so we'll probably drive to Hua Hin day before and spend a nigh in a hotel, like we've done in the past. Treat it as a mini holiday. I'll try to be there before 10:00 as have to update the bankbook and make some copies. Since they moved to the new office, it's always been crowded when I went there.

I made an online appointment 2 days ago, but just like the poster here didn't receive any email confirmation. @Ombra did the immigration honor you appointment when you showed up? I did some look around the immigration website, and found out that both Division 2 and Division 3 are missing from the Online Appointment link. Also discovered that some provincial immigration offices are missing on their division link, like Phuket for Division 6. Did anybody else had problems with online appointments?

It's not as easy as you seem to think. How do you restore a backup to thousands of computers when they don't even boot up? Unfortunately, in this case each will have to be restored individually. That's what is taking long time, plus the fact that the update was pushed on a Friday night. Limited support over the weekend. I'm sure potential adversaries are leaning from this.

I think that Accord looks pretty cool. Wouldn't mind as my next car.

You are sensible, never mix spirits when you are in for heavy drinking. I prefer quality vodka (Absolut) or gin (Blue Sapphire) and stick with it the whole evening. Have been known to empty a whole bottle of frozen vodka in one evening without much ill effects next day. That was a few years ago though.

Just for info to other posters here. Today I received a letter from my Pension Authority. It was dated June 26, that's four weeks ago.
