Yes, just as convoluted as on W10.

The desktop and the start menu to start with, plus all the other items that require 2-3 clicks more compared to Win10. And please explain to me why they just hide and relocate often used items in every new release. Just too many things to mention. I have one rig running Win11 and bloody hate to work with it. The only reason I would install W11 is for the Core Dispatch Manager support (or what ever it's called) for Gen13 processors.

Windows 11 is kak..... If you think about it every second release from MS is just garbage. Win95 ....kind of OK for what it was at that time Win98 Much better Win Me Crap XP Very nice Vista You must be kidding Win7 Best so far Win8 Abomination Win10 Not bad at all, apart from all the (mal)spyware Win11 Thanks, but no thanks Maybe better to wait for Win12, which supposed to be just around the corner.

It shows exactly where their priorities are. And that is definitely not the future of the country. All abstaining, not voting or not showing.

Totally agree. In my book, abstention means you don't care either way how the vote goes, so your vote don't count and the number for majority becomes lover. They must be using some weird Thai maths...

There is a little known Sci-Fi movie from 2014 starring Antonio Banderas, Robert Forster and Melanie Griffith among others. The title is "Automata" and it's about how robotic brains, in the movie called Biokernel, develop the ability to learn and evolve without any restrictions imposed by human programming. The tagline is: "Your time is coming to an end. Ours is now beginning." It's worth watching if you want another perspective on AI and robotic evolution. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1971325/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_q_automata

I had a rat problem. They ate all the engine cables in the car and even managed to chew through the trucks bed liner. Twice. One black cat solved it. Haven't seen a rat or even a mouse since we brought him home. Well, sometimes a dead ones that he brings to show off. Also, he keeps the stray dogs away from property. Very feisty creature.... Many a dog got their nose bloodied by him. He also keeps away unwanted people, all the soi knows that there is an angry cat guarding "his" property.

Yeah, until you see a few geckos or birds struggling to get free. Very sad experience.

I know what "fried" means. It's when the electronic devices emit the blue magic smoke that drives them internally. By the same token, how would you trust commercially available control gear. It can fail just the same, and you don't carry spares. In this case they could easy carry an extra controller. Probably the worst thing that would happen was if they ran out of battery power in the controller. I have owned many Logitech devices over the years. None has ever failed. I am typing this now on an Logitech RGB gaming keyboard. And, BTW, it's 2.4GHz and not MHz as I wrote in my post, brainfart. But it's still a fact the the sub was one big hack with everything. A YouTuber who was on the sub just days before the last dive was saying that they experienced problems with many things during the dive. Wonder what computer he used to control the sub. Or maybe it was an X-box.

Chips just don't get "fried" unless you put it in a microwave oven. Actually, the Logitech game controller they used is not Bluetooth, it has it's own 2.4MHz dongle. I have exactly the same and the connection is high speed and flowless within the 4m I have between my sofa and the TV. In fact some subs and ROV are controlled by a game controllers. It's just convenient. Have all the buttons you'll ever need. Don't understand why people would want to penalize Logitech for somebody using their tech. It's not like they sponsored the sub company.

Like I said before. Extreme violence with a screwdriver and a hammer in case of spinners. Microwave for the SSD's. Kill them all!!!!

The sub was at the surface pressure inside. That's the reason for the 15cm pressure hull. Nobody can breathe the air at 3800m, no SCUBA, no Trimix. Maybe some experimental oxygenated fluid, that does not exist commercially as yet. If they could surface, the problem would be to exit the sub as the hatch was bolted from outside. And without a beacon the sub would be impossible to locate on the surface.

The sub was rated to 4000m, the Titanic is at 3800m. Slim margin, but still.... We all have seen Das Boot, no?

Maybe, but paracetamol with alcohol will definitely make you fly.... Discovered that by coincidence....

Yeah, should really have been in the international news section. This is probably a lost cause... They have air for only 4 days, and now is day 3. Read that the entry hatch is bolted from outside. Even if they could surface, they cannot get out without external help.

China and regional stability... Is that an oxymoron?

Microwave oven can do wonders to an obsolete SSD. Totally unrecoverable! Spinners are a different story. Some violence might be required if you don't own a powerful electromagnet.

Re: my last append to this topic. I did finish my i9-13900 rig and currently running with Windows 10. If you replace the motherboard, your Windows activation automatically expires. I don't know how I did it, but managed to transfer my Windows activation with Microsoft phone support. All well there. However, the are a few snags! First is the Intel processor, I do a lot on video encoding, and that i9 hits 100 deg within seconds resulting in thermal throttling. I understand that is the same issue with i7-13700. It's basically the same die as i9 but with 8 E-cores disabled. I can remedy the temperature runaway slightly by reducing the processor VCORE by -105mV. The other issue is that the encoders I use (x265, AV1) will only use the E-cores. I have 18 of them running at 4200 MHz, but my last processor had 6/12 C/T clocked at 4300 MHz and was about the same performance, and that was Gen 5 with DDR4 memory. The story has it that Windows 10 doesn't know how to distribute the workload on the new Intel processors, but Windows 11 supposed to be the dogs <deleted> in this area. So, my plan is to image my current drive and upgrade to Windows 11, we'll see how it goes. If I don't like it much in daily use can always restore the Win 10 image. Why did that stupid filter just delete "b o l l o c k s"? It's in the Cambridge Dictionary <deleted>!.

Yes, and just like Kuwait and Palestine, British Colonial Power had a lot of saying in this.

You just made me puke all over the floor....

I would suggest you open a Fixed Account. I did that when I changed from Family to Retirement. Put 1 mill in the account and just leaving it there, puny 0.5% interest, but have 200K THB for emergencies too. Imm seems to like that and you just need a normal statement letter from the bank. No need to deposit and withdraw on the day of application. Just update the passbook. Copy of bankbook still needed, but since there are no transactions only Bring Forward (B/F) if you update you book.

Actually it's 76 virgins and 24 adolescent boys. But you'll have to die a martyr and blow yourself and some others to pieces first.....

"...Labour, he said, accounts for 17.4% of production costs in the agricultural sector, while other costs are incurred by fertilizers and pesticides, adding that some farmers have turned to machinery to reduce the labour cost..." About bloody time Thailand joined the 21st century.

Yes, I remember the fancy pictures from that election. Commie red north and blue central and south. PT only won because the north is the most populous, and because of the populist policies they were shouting out. I suppose 500 baht per vote helped some too. It's easy to appease a poor man, stick a note in his hand and he will suck on anything. Including torching Bangkok for the sake of their version of Democracy!!!! Thaksin also famously said that only those that voted for his party would benefit from his policies. What a leader for a county! And let's not forget that he only got something like 35% of the eligible votes. Hardly a majority.

If was in his position I would do exactly the same. What do you do to a bunch of terrorists that threaten to torch BKK. Red democracy shows how to govern. We didn't win so we will burn you.... You have to admit that he had more balls than any politico, and resigned his post when the Democrat party decided to support the junta, after saying they would not. In fact, he's probably the only one educated in political sciences in Thailand, unlike the rest of bafoons that can only count brown envelopes.
