'Next hours will be decisive': 45,000 police deployed as unrest spreads across France
original video here. the officer shot the driver when he decided to hit the gas while a gun was pointed at him. I don't know why the officer had pointed the gun at the driver in the first place or if that move was justified. I think there is more to the story. France's problems stem from certainly racism, but also from disrespect for authority, and this isn't just from immigrants and their descendants. More and more homegrown riffraff rebels just against anything and thinks it can just do as it pleases, while toxic politicians from both extremes play them and cultivate any "anti" behaviour. Already 30 years ago it wasn't advisable to drive a nice car because it was likely to get damaged in cities by jealous people. The sum of France's problems is probably enough to keep hordes of sociologists and psychologists occupied for years and to fill thousands of pages of analysis. But France needs to get out of that smelly pit of jealousy, extremist idealism, excessive underdog mentality, "anti" stance and whatever. It has been destroying France since the middle of the seventies. Bring back common sense, sensible laws, respect for institutions (but that respect has to be earned), industry, work ethics, etc.

Does anyone know why a computer gets loaded with ghost duplicate files like the example I am posting.
the first character is a "tilde". temporary files which exist while being worked on in Word and other MS Office applications. they get deleted automatically when the application is exited normally. they may subsist incase of improper shutdown (power loss), and work can be restored using the data they contain. other problems might also interfere with the automatic deletion of these temporary files.

The Koh Chang Link
thank you. why would it be unsuitable for cars ? I have driven to most places on Koh Chang with my car, it requires a car in good working order and some driving experience. Not for everyone, that's for sure.

The Koh Chang Link
Is there a good option for visiting Koh Chang with your own car without driving the road to there ? Like a ferry from Pattaya or Sattahip for example.

Recording emerges of Donald Trump saying he is holding classified documents after leaving office
the briefings are one thing, but were Trump's clearances pulled too ?

it's more complicated than that. ex-presidents still have clearance for many classified documents, they also get an intelligence briefing every day if they wish. the details will decide this case, not sweeping statements.

Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital

wow so expensive. I bought my Nouvo 135 for 15.000- Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
Navalny doesn't have 25000 soldiers armed with artillery, tanks and air defense. Putin only understands power and violence and is responsive to it.- Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
there are videos of fighting inside Rostov and explosion of vehicles on the highway. looks pretty much real.- Review - U.S. Burger Chain Shake Shack now has first Thailand location open at CentralWorld
Domino's pizza has opened in Pattaya, I thought I'd give them a try. They are currently selling their pizza at huge discounts, maybe 45% off or something, so I tried. It was meh, but for 260 baht including delivery I felt like at least I had not been robbed. Then I saw that they intend to sell that same pizza for 499 baht later. Cheeseburger fries and coke for 405 ... okay. if it's a good cheeseburger. From the pictures above I'd say I do better in my own kitchen, and they can't beat my burger sauce ???? haha- Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
What this shows is that the Russian structures of power and their level of control are a complete clown show. Wagner's push to Moscow showed that many Russian security forces would not oppose such a move. Putin must have freaked out. Prigozhin was careful to only insult the military leadership, not Putin himself, and Putin seeing how little support is left among his own troops must have decided to keep Prigozhin maybe not as a friend, but as a non-enemy which may in future be motivated to help Putin again. Putin is weak, Moscow is weak. That's why Prigozhin gets to live to see another day. for now. Maybe it has also something to do with the Chechens. The first news about them was that a huge Chechen column was heading for Rostov and Kadyrov talking angrily about traitors, etc. And then the next news were about the first Chechens arriving in Rostov being "detained". Rostov's population was showing some support for Prigozhin, so I'm not sure how Putin-loyal Chechens shooting Russians in Russia would have worked out as a mental image with Russian people. If a match was needed to embraze everything, it could have been that. I guess Putin realized he had no other choice than to defuse the situation. I wonder if Prigozhin gets his wishes of Gerasimov and Shoigu being removed.- Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital

the thing we don't know is how much of the military is or will be siding with Wagner. General Flustikov moved this morning to take over control of the Ministry of Defence headquarters on Frunzenskaya in Moscow. I doubt a lone general would do something like this, especially a Russian one. Flustikov was GRU, and GRU relations with Wagner are very friendly. Russia's National Guard, the "Rosgvardia" was created by Putin as a kind of Hitlerjugend. So I guess they will be loyal, but will they be ready to right veteran fighters ? it all looks like a large clusterf*ck - Really confuse about second hand motorbike in PHUKET
