Feel sorry for AN posters who bought electric
Nobody seems to be asking the question what happens if an EV gets flooded. Perhaps our EV owners can comment on the potential for electrocution. -

Bank of Thailand Intervenes to Manage Baht's Exchange Rate
Only difference with 1997 is that they were supporting the baht, while this time they are doing the opposite. -

Bank of Thailand Intervenes to Manage Baht's Exchange Rate
There's a clue in the article when it says "the reserves have benefited from the interventions and the depreciation of the Dollar". The reserves are held in foreign currencies and Baht, most of which have increased in value as USD has depreciated. The reserves are only accounted for in USD, not held in USD plus that accounting only takes place at month end. A fall from 37 to 32 will mean a substantial increase in USD terms. It isn't that more reserves have been earned, only that the exchange rate has increased the Dollar value of the reserves. https://www.bot.or.th/en/statistics/sdds-reserve-template.html -

A gaffe here and there or being picked up about where you were 35 years ago is one thing but not willing to simply say Biden won the election is something much worse in my opinion as it suggests not much character and trying to please his silly duffer boss.- 1

I don't know what species it is but ... pedant alert ... it's unlikely to be poisonous - venomous, maybe. Sorry. -

Elon Musk: Trump as the ‘Only Way’ to Preserve U.S. Democracy, Says Billionaire
You need to provide evidence of non citizens voting. Then you can move onto the problem of voter ID requirements disenfranchising citizens. https://www.brennancenter.org/issues/ensure-every-american-can-vote/vote-suppression/voter-id -

Four Charges Filed Against Driver in Bus Fire That Killed 23
I agree Thailand is a magnificent country with lovely people and the laws are more relaxed. But if you're telling me there should be no rules or laws or safety checks or training to carry 50 plus children and teachers then I will have to disagree with you good luck on your next bus ride. -

Does even one person actually believe the school shooter gaffe was anything other than a gaffe? You focus on his weakest moments while you ignore his strong ones. Indeed the knockout punch where he got sleazeball Vance to refuse to admit Trump lost in 2020. Frank Lunz is a notorious republican shill, but you knew that already. Best scoring of the event. Vance was slick and won on style. But he lied constantly. Walz had some cringe rough moments, but he held his own overall, got much better in the later part of the debate, and won on SUBSTANCE. So calling it even would be objective and fair. -

Obviously, that was Walz misspeaking. He isn't friends with them, and he does not have some subconscious desire to be their friends. OTOH it does display that Walz is a lumbering slow thinker, unprepared, and doubtlessly panicking in his response. -

Filler fiasco: Fake doc’s botched injections leave dentist’s family disfigured
For a million baht they should have known it was not going to be a subtle hardly noticeable result. I wonder if this doctor does boob jobs also. -

Carbon capture and storage is an exercise in thermodynamic implausibility. AFAIK there is not a single CCS facility which is operating to its design parameters. Even one of the CCS's most vocal proponents, Professor Tim Flannery, has admitted the technology does not work. CCS is a scientific hoax, like Piltdown Man and cold fusion. The fact billions have been spent on it does not make it any less of a con by the fossil fuel industry. -

Inferno bus in use for 54 years
I was responding to a claim that "Every problem in Thailand always comes down to laziness and greed." Injecting a little dose of economic realty that low wages and lack of funds make even the most genuine of efforts difficult at best. It's not all laziness and greed. That claim is the derogatory one. Coming from nanny state refugees... Who want "back home" safety at Thai competitive prices. You can have one, or you can have the other. Not both.
