The Vanishing Hurricanes: A Quiet Season Baffles Forecasters
How sad. Instead of celebrating that less destruction will occur due to their forecasts being wrong, they want something horrendous to justify their big salaries. So, the computer models got it wrong; happy days for those that didn't lose their homes. Perhaps what is happening in Vietnam will cheer them up. -

Power Switching Under Load
What's the actual scenario? DC or AC breakers? (or AC breakers on a DC source - naughty) Are the warnings from the manufacturer or on an internet forum? If you can remove the load there's little doubt that switching "cold" can improve the life of the contacts (particularly of DC breakers), but I doubt the occasional switch under load is going to do much harm (I'm assuming decent quality breakers here). -

Frenchman arrested in Krabi for eight-year visa overstay
To overstay for eight years must have been laying low and minding his own business. Eventually, trouble finds you with that lengthy of an overstay. Bonne chance Didier. -

Baht becoming ridiculously strong
It definitely isn't ' the dollar going down, it is the THB going up which is the weird thing. And this since the soft coup and the political turmoil. 2 THB less per euro in just 6 weeks, that's more than a 5% difference in a very short time. Imagine if you ordered a new villa in Phuket for 50M and suddenly it is the equivalent of 2,5 Million THB more expensive in Euro's a few weeks later when you order the transfer. Let's hope things go back to normal soon. -

How on earth do you Diet in Thailand ?
It still confuses me why Farangs still recommend olive oil here. It will usually be adulterated and expensive or unadulterated and VERY expensive. Coconut oil is a much better solution. -

Rising Toll: 16,000 Russian Soldiers Killed in Ukraine Since April
It would be more interesting how many Ukrainian soldiers died so far. And how many are able to fight. To send more weapons makes only sense as long there are soldiers left to use them. I think it's time for cease fire and peace talks. And stay away from making Ukraine a NATO member!!! -

US Charges Leaders of White Supremacist Group for Plotting Global Attacks via Telegram
US prosecutors in California have charged two individuals with leading a white supremacist group on the messaging app Telegram, where they allegedly encouraged acts of violence across the country. In a 37-page indictment unsealed on Monday, Dallas Erin Humber, 34, and Matthew Robert Allison, 37, were accused of spearheading the "Terrorgram" network, which aimed to incite terror attacks to ignite a race war. The indictment alleges that Humber and Allison used Terrorgram as a platform to distribute bomb-making materials, circulate assassination target lists, and urge members to carry out violent attacks. Prosecutors claim that Allison exhorted group members to "take action now" and "do your part," emphasizing the immediacy and necessity of their violent mission. The pair allegedly took control of Terrorgram in 2022 after one of its previous leaders was arrested on terrorism charges. According to the indictment, the group’s ideology is rooted in "white supremacist accelerationism," a belief system that advocates for the superiority of the white race and sees violence as essential to establishing a "white ethnostate." At the forefront of this network, Humber and Allison allegedly disseminated extremist content, including videos and posts titled "The Hard Reset," "White Terror," and "The List." "The List" reportedly contained the names of "high value targets," including a US senator, a federal district court judge, and other state and local officials. When announcing the charges, officials emphasized the seriousness of the alleged crimes. Matt Olsen, head of the Justice Department’s National Security Division, stated, "These are not mere words," highlighting that Humber and Allison were not just engaging in rhetorical incitement but actively working to provoke real-world violence. Prosecutors also allege that several planned and executed attacks in recent years could be linked to the Terrorgram network. Among these incidents is an October 2022 shooting at an LGBTQ bar in Slovakia, where two people were killed, and a stabbing attack in Turkey. These events underscore the global reach and deadly potential of the network. Both Humber, of Elk Grove, California, and Allison, of Boise, Idaho, face 15 federal counts, including solicitation of murder of a federal official, solicitation of a hate crime, and conspiracy to provide material support for terrorists. The pair were arrested on Friday, according to reports from the Associated Press. It remains unclear if either has secured legal representation. In a related development, late last month, Telegram's chief executive, Pavel Durov, was arrested under a warrant for offenses related to the operation of his app. The ongoing investigation into Telegram centers on accusations of insufficient moderation, particularly in curbing criminal activities such as drug trafficking, child exploitation, and fraud. Telegram has previously denied claims of inadequate moderation, but the latest charges against Humber and Allison highlight the app's use as a platform for dangerous and illegal activities.
