British woman injured by boat propeller on Similan Islands
My son's very British gf has a very East European surname. Puzzled she told be her grand father came to Britain from Ukraine during the war. I am interested to find out more if she knows how he got here. I know lots of Poles got here during the war but not that Ukrainians came here. I am of course referring to the 1939-1945 war. So no surprise there are many British with non Anglo Saxon names -

Russia running out of soldiers
Tsk, tsk, tsk. Do you honestly think Ukraine will win? That’s the problem when you only get your information from approved, credible sources. You only hear what THEY want you to hear. It Vladivostok btw, not Vladilostok. I knew a lass from there once. Would love to visit. -

If AN members could vote in the USA election, who would we vote in?
Most are bashers who hate anything American that is based on the Constitution, Free Enterprise and Individual Liberty. -

You asked a question and I answered it. Let's not engage. I find it difficult to have a meaningful discussion with a blockhead. -

What Movies or TV shows are you watching (2024)
That's the big problem with movies and TV - everything is a reboot. Some a reboot of a reboot of a reboot. Like how many times can you remake Beau Gest? I watched Oppenheimer. Like most films by Tenet it was well done. I enjoyed it for both its story-line and historical value. Then The Rings of Power. I dunno. It could be sooooo much better. I just come away disappointed and I am a solid Tolkien fanboy. Dark Matter was a surprise and I enjoyed it. Ended up reading the book afterwards and the TV show was tightly scripted to follow the book, probably because the author was involved in the TV show's production. However, the Season 2 will be completely new stuff as Season 1 ends with the end of the book. Not sure how that's going to work but if Blake Crouch is writing the screen play it might fly. On top of that Blake Crouch is now on my To Read list of authors. Dark - you gotta be Ok with subtitles unless you speak German. Excellent though. Then, Abigail - Ha ha ha ha ha. Great funny horror movie! I loved it. Things I'm waiting for: Severance Season 2 - This is my style of quirky shows. Loved Season 1, and looking forward to Season 2. House of Dragons Season 3 (long wait for this one) Silo Season 2 - Worthy effort Foundation Season 3 - It ain't the books but it is good in the non-Asimov tale of The Empire. Dune 3 - Herbert had plenty of books so there is plenty of plot left. Things I'd like to see: Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson. I watch an AI trailer and it would be a hit if they'd make it into a movie. Books: The Winds of WInter (Either George dies before it is ever finished or I do - I've not much hope) Realistically, there isn't much out there that is novel and worth watching. But I'm surprised on occasion though, for example Severance and Dark Matter. Most of it is just rehashed and worn-out plot lines. Which is sad because I tend to read more than I watch the screen. And there really are some incredible writing going on that COULD be made into movies or TV, but the producers of such don't have the cajones to risk anything new - the just know the same old, worn-out plot-lines will keep them in the money. Well - nothing ventured, nothing gained. -

If Trump is re-elected what does it say about the I.Q of the average American?
Try reading what you actually post... 🙄 You said that you wanted the electoral college to ignore the vote and not elect Trump: If you want the electoral college to ignore how the Americans voted and choose their own candidate, how can that possibly be democratic? -

ICE vs EV, the debate thread
I beg to differ (there’s always one, isn’t there?). In the 2 CS that I frequent, a Bangchak station, there’s always plenty of parking. I put it to you that people waiting to charge are much more likely to spend money at the vendors there. I know for myself that I wouldn’t have frequented those vendors at those CS if I wasn’t waiting to charge. There was a post a couple of weeks back about the queue at a particular CS in CM. The coffee shop adjacent to the chargers is doing a roaring business from BYD owners. Practically everyone goes in for a cuppa. I agree with the theory about the electric grid though. The latest BYD showroom in CM on the 700 year road has had chargers installed the past few months but still non-operational, on peak or off peak. Edit: my speeds have increased too! -

House for rent near the temple how is it
Good idea t be concerned. The chanting is a big negative in Thailand for me. However if your a single guy and it's a temple where lots of gals come to give merit then party or eat it may be good hunting grounds. -
