Are tiled-Thai roofs designed so that they will leak a little, during horizontal rain?
My Ceris roof tiles are held down by a spring. I know the Monier concrete tiles are tied to the batten by an iron wire -

Joe Manchin seems to think Kamala Harris is just as much a threat as Donald Trump
Swing voters , Independents. Need to be aware, she is what she is, a Social justice warrior. “To this point, Harris’s campaign is going better than most Democrats dared to hope. But if there is one thing that could sour the Democratic ticket’s good vibes, it is a smear campaign that tars her as a radical. The future of our republic may therefore hinge on how well Harris parries that attack”. https://www.vox.com/politics/367389/dnc-2024-kamala-harris-policies-trump-dangerously-liberal -

Will Harris' Leadership Unite or Divide the Nation?
When there is a yawning chasm between adherents of the 2 candidates, I call it broken. No matter the outcome, the losing side will undoubtedly ascribe it to nefarious actions. IMO the US is broken and like Humpty, will never be put together again. Anyone that thinks politicians actually intend to better lives ( other than their own ) is, IMO, living in an alternate universe, called Eden. -

Applying for a DTV (soft power) with Thai language classes possible?
Yep, this should work as it did for many others. I just think IOs will check on your reentry if you are still engaged in the activity you got the DTV based upon. If all you can show is a dental cleaning appointment months ago they might refuse you entry, not even granting you a visa exemption stamp because you already stayed in Thailand for half a year. Getting the DTV seems pretty easy, but maintaining it could be challenging. -

any older white male In NST, English speaker?
From which part of USA, or UK, would you like the accent to be? Geordie is quite a bit different than Scouse or Manchester. Or get to Devon & Cornwall and you would not know what the 4..k they were saying. Same applies to Texas vs Chicago I guess. -

The Moka Pot thread
Moka, is this the coffee that tastes like chocolate? That's my favorite coffee I buy in Amazon. If it is, which of these two types of coffee gives it that chocolate taste, Arabica 100% French Dark Roast or HillKoff Arabica coffee? Thanks -

Are tiled-Thai roofs designed so that they will leak a little, during horizontal rain?
Most of the comments above are correct, although some may be sarcasm. 1 Tiles are not fixed down, they are held in place by gravity only. 2 Leakage will then mainly depend on the pitch of the roof, and the angle of the rain. If the pitch is < 45 degrees, and the wind is low, they will leak as RocketDog suggested. 3 In the OP you referred to if "these roofs were on houses in Taiwan, with the Typhoons, and SUPER TYPHOONS, typical of Taiwan....then....the would be gone...in a... NEW YORK MINUTE." Probably true, but we tend not to have such strong wnds in Thailand, depending on whereabouts you are. But with much lower wind speeds than Taiwan, don't even think about trying to tie down a large sheet of plastic sheeting as illustrated. That would be doomed to disaster. 4 My roof is a traditional Thai roof, very steep (> 45 degrees) and slightly curved. The individual tiles hang over wooden battens and are held down by gravity. It is steep enough to not leak, and the tiles are heavy enough not to be disturbed by wind. I did have a layer of rockwool fitted under them to minimise heat in the bedrooms, which works. -

Does Donald Trump Have Dementia?
In actuality, the guy investigating the Biden situation gave Biden a pass as being to befuddled to know what he was doing, or something like that, so he avoided an indictment and court case.
