Confusion Over U-Turn Sign Placement Leaves Drivers Baffled, Netizens Ask Who It’s For
The workers had a ladder on their truck. Maybe they thought The Boss would take it away if they didn't use it? Or they were Burmese and mis-calculated their conversion from metres into feet. -

Baht's Biggest Surge Since 1998 Poses Risk to Tourism And Exports
So, as usual, everything is Biden’s fault? I guess we should thank him for the higher interest rate that made the dollar stronger vs the Baht over the past couple of years then. -

What really grinds your gears in Pattaya
Honestly, in all the years of reading crime news in Thailand, I have come to the belief that Thailand's foreign tourist destinations are associated with specific types of crime. If it is any consolation, Phuket is probably the foreign crime hub of Thailand, and that the likelihood of violent crime in Pattaya is much less than on Phuket. And despite all the negative imagery tied to minors in the sex trade in Pattaya, I offer that Udon Thani is much worse. If one stays out of the sex trade district, Pattaya is a relatively safe destination. Almost all of the serious crime reported for Pattaya ties back to the seedy walking street beer bars & clubs and to the gay ghetto section. Pattaya would be a much more economically vibrant city if it got rid of the seedy sex industry strip and went upscale. -

You sure about that? Here he is with one of his best friends, who he partied with often, and also spent time on his private island in the Caribbean. -

Starmer Asserts Control Amid Internal Turmoil Over Sue Gray’s Salary Dispute
Of course any fraud should be thoroughly investigated and those involved punished, however fraud is not limited to Tories, It is endemic throughout politics, just like boxing and horse racing there is too much money involved for it not to be. I doubt there are enough prison spaces in the entire system to house all those involved Perhaps a cost / benefit study would be appropriate, obviously taking into account the inflated salaries of those who make a full time career of conducting such inquiries. Forgive my negativity but I can see little on the horizon to be positive about -

Electric Vehicles in Thailand
I always fit stored hot water boilers to reduce the load on the grid. The ones I like (Alpha) are no longer available, switchable 800, 1600 or 2400 watt -

GPS installation for motorcycle
Assuming your new phone is an Android, you can now get Tags that can use Google Find My Device E.G. https://www.eufy.com/blogs/smart-tracker/eufy-tracker-works-with-google-find-my-device so it doesn’t matter what brand of phone you use. Obviously if you’ve switched to Apple you can just get an AirTag though I use the Eufy tags as they’re cheaper & offer some use to the GF on her Android phone. -

Does Donald Trump Have Dementia?
You really think Trump will improve any of those parameters? A "concept of a plan" won't cut the mustard. I don't see Trump offering student loan relief. He's on record as hoping the economy would crash, so the Fed's 0.5% cut in interest rates must really be p!ssing him off. IIRC you were in the military. I wonder how you can look at yourself in the mirror, given Captain Bonespur's repeated disrespect of people who serve. Trump's only goal in running for president is to stay out of jail. It's game over if he loses. IMO he does not give a sh!t about conservative values. -

GPS installation for motorcycle
Try this: Chipolo ONE Point for Google's Find My Device app - Chipolo Important, they have a couple of products with very similar names. If you want the one which works with Android and no additional app, then get the one above.- 1

Trump vs. Taylor Swift: A Battle He’s Bound to Lose
12 boyfriends sound like less of a transgression than 5 bankruptcies and 17 businesses failures in the past few decades. Some at huge losses. Trump Steaks, Trump Shuttle Airline ($120 million in losses between 1988 and 1990), GoTrump, Trump Vodka, Trump Mortgage, Trump University, Trump Ice, The New Jersey Generals, Tour de Trump, Trump Network, Trump Magazine, Trumped!. Many businesses that licensed his name went bankrupt, or went out of business. And he had between four and six major bankruptcies (depending on the source), including the Trump Taj Mahal (which he spent $1.2 billion building, and was $3 billion in debt within a year of opening), Trump's Castle, Trump Place Hotel (which was very successful prior to Trump buying it in 1988, and he managed to put it into $550 million in debt by 1992!), Trump Hotels and Casinos Resorts ($1.8 billion in debt by 2004, bankrupt in 2009) , and Trump Entertainment Resorts. There are likely others. And this does not take into account the 3,600 lawsuits he was involved in as of the time he took office, the vast majority of which were filed by small contractors against his companies for non payment, or total default. Many of these contractors were crushed. It is part of his M.O. Promises made but never kept: Every voter needs to be reminded of Trump's promises last time he was running: There is very little that comes out of Donald's mouth that is the truth..... He promised to cut the deficit. He added $8T. He promised to build a wall. He only did 458 miles out of 2,000. Most of it was repair or replacement, not new. He promised to make Mexico pay. They didn't. We did. He promised to unveil a new healthcare plan. It didn't exist. He promised a middle-class tax cut. He cut taxes for the rich. The middle class is paying for it. He said he wouldn't play golf as President. He made 250 visits (way more than Obama) to his own golf clubs. It cost taxpayers $150 million. He said he'd increase economic growth by 4%. Nope. Biden did. He promised an infrastructure plan. He had none. President Biden signed a massive one. He promised to hire "the best people." He fired 3/4 of them and then said they were the worst ever, and they said HE was in fact the worst ever. He promised to bring down the price of prescription drugs. He didn't: Biden did. He promised a Hillary lock-up. Nope Promised we'd win the trade war with China. Nope, It cost about 250,000 jobs and hurt Americans, not help them. He promised his corporate tax cuts would help and benefit Workers, and corporations would use that money to invest in American workers. They didn't, they used that money to buy back stocks. He promised to revive the coal industry. Never happened: more coal jobs were lost during his presidency. -

What is this cap on floodlight?
"I think I have the correct answer, and that is that the cap allows the light to be wired through the back" Good for you, this is now CLOSED ! You are lucky it got that far given your attitude toward others. -

Stealing a Federal Election
That was in 2021, and those judges (including SCOTUS) didn't rule on the merits or the facts. Just the standing. It's been going mostly the other direction since then. -

Vibrant Atmosphere at 'Bangkok Car Free 2024'
I think to be fair, next week there should be at the same location a donut week. And then let's compare how many people show up to each event. 😉
