  1. I'm a bit surprised an anonymous website gets such coverage. Who is behind the "Thai Enquirer" ? Are there any other articles on the internet written in perfect English by "Wanchai Vatanakool" ?
  2. how is it being held against her? the world is open to her, just not the part where she is considered a security risk.
  3. you are still Putin friendly I guess. worth it? let the Ukrainians answer that one, but only as far as Ukraine is concerned. for the rest of the world, stopping Putin is certainly worth it. Ukrainians have indeed been used. by Putin. not anymore. this conflict will resolve when Trump and his MAGA fanboys (many of which Putin probably has kompromat on) will have been taken care of. Any moment now as even Fox News started attacking the Trump crew. They are done, they just refuse to acknowledge it for now. Ukraine can hold Russia on its own, but it can't win on its own.
  4. I do respect opinions. But misinformation is not an opinion and neither is ignorance. Opinions need to be in accordance with facts to qualify as proper opinions. I have no respect for people holding certain beliefs that when presented with facts proving the contrary still continue to misrepresent the truth.
  5. of course with such sad news, the trolls are out in force for a field day.
  6. sure ... all with regular veterinarian inspections during the animals life, checking for parasites, vaccinations ...
  7. the main difference is in how the animal is slaughtered. meat from professionally grown and slaughtered cattle is fine, but the risks associated with home-grown cattle and home slaughtering are high. and then of course how the meat is stored and sold. if eating steak tartare, use only meat from industrial farms that gets industrially slaughtered and then refrigerated throughout until sold and eaten.
  8. I guess you are not familiar with the Isaan raw beef salad
  9. thanks! it's not a green topic though. "green" suggests a green political agenda. I think that's why it didn't register as the correct place to post - and I didn't even see the air pollution forum. may I suggest renaming the green forum into "environmental topics forum" ? EDIT: on a second thought "environmental topics" wouldn't nail it either. I'm splitting hairs.
  10. Air quality is in the news again, with pollution levels being extremely bad currently. I looked at the maps for Thailand, but the sensor coverage outside of Bangkok is quite poor. Wouldn't it be nice to get more sensors up and running so we could have more data about our localities ? What is needed to setup an air quality measurement station and publish its data to the internet-based air pollution map sites ? Who did it already ? Any recommendations about which devices work well ?
  11. It looks like Western delivery practices arrived in Thailand. The worst company I know is DPD. They will not even show up and claim "missed delivery".
  12. My opinion is that locking the phone would be nearly useless, since I consider the biggest risk to be hacking. Harmful code comes onto phones via security vulnerabilities, not via unlocked screens.
  13. yes, but ... the OTP is no problem, it served as a second media to provide authentication to the transaction made on another device. With banking apps, everything is on the same device, which becomes a single point of failure. That's why I have no banking apps installed on my phone, not to mention the crippling effect when the phone is stolen or lost.
  14. Regardless, I think it's alarming if a bank requires a phone to be locked, banking apps' security should be good enough to not rely on the phone lock.
  15. I'd be quite happy with him to continue on his trajectory of the recent days and that he gets no chance at all in November. And I believe he will get no chance. He will burn before that.
  16. okay, so the victims of muggings are at fault because they didn't hand over their belongings. victims of rape are at fault because they didn't agree to the sex (seems you agree with Trump on that one). I guess that's one way to look at things. and you came to this thread to post: LOL your views are nothing but disgusting.
  17. aaah, yes. you don't care but you support Putin and Ruzzia any chance you get.
  18. nope, Putin said it himself. WW2 is Poland's fault. It came from his own mouth.
  19. I wonder what you think of Putin's opinion that Poland started WW2 by not giving territories to Hitler. here is a nice detailed rebuff of Putin's historical hallucinations:
  20. I hope someone will dissect what Putin said and explain in detail the gaslighting. Hopefully you will watch that detailed rebuff, understand it, and realize RU was, is completely wrong in their actions against the Ukrainian people.
  21. Be careful with absolutes. I don't remember Putin ever saying anything in public about Evan Gershkovich for example.
  22. do you have a VPN ? that would solve your problem. I'm not an Apple product user, so I don't know much about Mac, but I'm very surprised they allow gateways to mess with clients' DNS settings.
  23. I'd be amazed, because right now there are no tools to even just properly translate from and into Thai.
