UV light from the sun can increase vitamin D levels which may very well have health benefits (although only if your vitamin D levels are low) but that doesn't make it "the best medicine" for COVID. Maybe you're getting confused about the fact that UV light can kill the virus on surfaces and thinking it can somehow have a direct effect on curing a COVID infection - the same exact mistake that Trump made.

The US is occupying 1/3 of Syria? That's a ridiculous claim to make. As the Reuters article below points out: Why U.S. troops are in the Middle East Having less than 1,000 troops located in a couple of small bases does not by any stretch of the imagination, equate to occupying 1/3 of the country. And in any event, the situation is not even remotely comparable - the US is not laying claim to Syrian territory, nor are they demanding that Syria become subsumed into the US.

Thailand Passes Landmark Same-Sex Marriage Law
GroveHillWanderer replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
If you dress like a woman and your Thai wife dresses like a man, how does that even vaguely come close to meeting the criteria for a same sex marriage? -
All the games I've looked at on PPTV so far, have had English language commentary.

Why is Milk So Pricey In Thailand?
GroveHillWanderer replied to SteveJames's topic in General Topics
Do you have any links to those websites? The ones I've looked at say their UHT milk is made from real cow's milk, not milk powder. Here's just two examples. -
Why is Milk So Pricey In Thailand?
GroveHillWanderer replied to SteveJames's topic in General Topics
Some massive amounts of misconceptions about the Thai dairy industry on this thread. Thailand does not import most of its milk, and most of the milk sold here does not come from milk powder. Local milk production for example is getting on for ten times what is imported. All the major brands (Meiji, ChokChai, Thai Danish etc) use pasteurised milk that comes from the over 300,000 dairy cows in Thailand. Towards sustainability of the dairy industry in Thailand -
It doesn't seem to say that at all. Not carrying cash does not mean that your only other alternative is a phone. Also, phones rarely die for reasons other than the battery running out of juice, at least in my experience. I've owned various different mobile phones over a period of twenty years or more. I've never had one die on me and I've never had one run out of battery. I always make sure to keep my phone charged up, especially if I'm going out - it's not that difficult.

So you really think there are other countries who, if supplied with Russian weapons, will use them against say, Poland, Germany or the UK and thereby get drawn into a conflict with the entire NATO alliance, as provided for under Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty? Can you tell us who any of these countries might be?

Electric Vehicles in Thailand
GroveHillWanderer replied to Bandersnatch's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Yet another video with no source or useful information about what it depicts. For instance, is there anything to indicate that isn't just an example of someone forgetting to latch the bonnet (hood) of their vehicle properly? -
Some serious projection going on there. Trump's the only one of the two who's forgotten where they are recently, as far as I'm aware. Trump forgets where he is during Iowa campaign speech Trump is also the one who keeps forgetting who he's running against. Trump crowd goes silent as he confuses Biden and Obama again He also keeps going on rambling and incoherent rants about things like windmills, toilets, sharks and electric boats etc. On that last subject, just look at the unhinged screed from his recent speech, on the link below. Cognitive Decline? Trump Short-Circuits During Bonkers Rant So while they've both had 'senior moments' recently, I think it's a bit disingenuous to suggest that only Biden is showing signs of his age - Trump is showing just as many, if not more.

Why on earth would that be? Saying that Russia occupies large parts of Ukraine and is carrying out ongoing attacks on cities does not in any way preclude the possibility that Russia might be losing and being driven back. For instance, although Russia has indisputably and illegally taken over parts of Ukraine and continues to commit war crimes with their ongoing attacks against Ukrainian civilian targets, they may well be losing their grip on at least one of the illegally-occupied areas, Crimea (with possibly others to follow). Putin may be about to lose Crimea

Hunter Biden Found Guilty on All Counts in Gun Trial
GroveHillWanderer replied to Social Media's topic in World News
At least according to the Reuters article below (which makes no mention of them being mandatory) while the guidelines are indeed 15-21 months for a first offence of illegal gun possession, "most offenders get less than that." Hunter Biden found guilty. What comes next? -
Electric Vehicles in Thailand
GroveHillWanderer replied to Bandersnatch's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Again, no indication of where that picture (which does indeed, appear to be a burned-out Neta V) comes from or whether it's related to the video posted by @ExpatOilWorker. -

Not saying it isn't, necessarily - but how do we know this is a Neta V? You keep posting these videos with no source to verify what they actually are. And, as the saying goes, "Quod gratis asseritur, gratis negatur." (What is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence).
