WrLife still ok?
I don't use Facebook but as on AN/TV there have been multiple topics to wit 'If I don't tell the insurer about my pre-existing conditions, how can they find out?' so that claim denials as I have read many of them are no surprise. -

Thai Officials Face Probe Over Fatal School Bus Inferno
No doubt that some people that are culpable, along with a few additional scapegoats, will be made an extreme example of, while this terrible incident is fresh in the collective memory; however, I very much doubt if these examples will do anything to change the culture of corruption that gave birth to this appalling tragedy. -

Thailand Urged to Tackle Foreign Influence in Tourism Business
I suppose one could ask why locally owned and run businesses cannot compete with foreign run and proxy owned businesses? Could it be that the former are inefficient and expensive? Equally, perhaps the emphasis to stop foreign influence should be to stop Thai people acting as proxies? The reality is that so much Russian and Chinese money (black and otherwise) is flowing into Thailand that locals are only too willing to do the bidding of foreigners. But it was Thailand that opened the floodgates to these people with visa free entry and/or multiple extensions, so it’s reap what you sow time. -

Samsung repairs / after sales service
My experience with my 32" TV mirrors yours almost exactly. The picture became unwatchable just one day after the warranty expired. This is a classic case of 'planned obsolescence,' and unfortunately, there's little you can do except avoid this brand in the future. -

Trump mocks the working class with stunt at McDonald's
Trump again shows his contempt for the working class. Do you really think the man has worked a blue collar job in his life? His only interaction with a working man is to tell him he's fired. Harris wants to raise the minimum wage while Trump refuses to support raising it. Harris has walked a picket line in support of unions. Do you think Trump has ever walked a picket line? https://www.uswvoices.org/vice-president-kamala-harris-top-ten-victories-for-workers https://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/us-news/donald-trumps-mcdonalds-day-job-was-staged-redditors-expose-photoop-101729480394604.html- 2

31-Year-Old Man Dies After Motorcycle Crash Caused by Pothole in Samut Prakan
RIP, with all the raining and base being sand or of insufficient thickness to support the traffic potholes appear sometimes 1 year after the road surfaced is layed. We can only hope they start doing inspections along the construction process so they can lessen the chances of a poor quality job. -

So, we can believe the FBI, or we can believe some random online type. Gee, tough decision.- 1

Robert Jenrick Calls for Whole Life Sentences for Grooming Gangs
The UK's parole system is generally pretty good. The reoffending rate is pretty low, 0.5% I believe - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0CPJW85Y1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_d_asin_title_351_o00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (beware this is a paid-for book, but it is written by a senior parole board member (Rob McKeon, he's been on radio and tv talking about it, so his name is public domain). Just let them out when they are no longer a threat to anyone. Same goes for thieves and anyone violent, probably a lot of other categories too. The criminal justice system should be protecting the law-abiding public or anyone vulnerable. It currently is not. The latest reoffending rate I could find is 37.4% - https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/proven-reoffending-statistics-april-to-june-2022/proven-reoffending-statistics-april-to-june-2022 The parole system seems a better judge of potential reoffending than, well, judges. -

Best place to eat steam fish in North Jomtien
...and how much are you willing to place on that bet? I'm guessing a big fat nothing. I didn't Google it, you did. It's not on Google Maps, so you would have only been able to find it by searching the name that I gave you. Not all of us are totally ignorant of our surroundings twenty years later.
