Far-right activists from Germany spent US election day at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago
What a bunch of nonsense! Trump has lied on thousand of occasions! Claiming otherwise is a sad joke... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_or_misleading_statements_by_Donald_Trump BTW: I would have voted for Trump in all elections! The Dems were lying as well but maybe not as often as Trump, however Trump is far better for the US then Harris IMHO. -

EV Owners Frustrated as Samui Ferries Restrict EV Transport Over New Year Period
File picture for reference only. Electric vehicle (EV) owners planning to visit Koh Samui for the New Year holidays have been left disappointed following an announcement by Raja Ferry PLC that it will temporarily suspend ferry services for EVs due to safety concerns. The company cited risks associated with EV batteries, particularly the potential for overheating and fires, as the reason for the decision. The announcement, first posted on the “Hia Kub Rod” Facebook page, has caused concern among EV owners both on Koh Samui and those planning to visit during the festive season. Raja Ferry stated that the suspension is intended to ensure the safety of passengers and their belongings, sparking uncertainty for EV users seeking alternatives to access the island. In contrast, Seatran Ferry, another ferry operator servicing Koh Samui, continues to allow EVs onboard, albeit with additional precautions. Seatran Ferry requires EV owners to complete a detailed form acknowledging the risks associated with battery transportation. The company has also designated specific parking areas on its ferries for EVs to facilitate rapid response in case of emergencies. The acknowledgment form includes a disclaimer stating: “Passengers understand and accept the risks associated with transporting vehicles on the ferry, including potential damage to EVs. The company will only be held liable for incidents caused by negligence on the part of employees or representatives.” EV owners who sign the form can board Seatran Ferries as usual, with their vehicles receiving extra monitoring by ferry staff. Despite this option, Raja Ferry’s suspension has caused significant inconvenience, as it leaves only one operator available for EV transportation. This limited service is expected to result in longer wait times and congestion, particularly during the busy New Year period. Tourism businesses on Koh Samui are bracing for a potential economic impact. With EV owners facing logistical challenges, some may opt to change their travel plans and visit other destinations, potentially leading to a decline in tourist revenue for the island during the peak holiday season. -- 2024-12-10 -

There is a far simpler way. Open a post from the poster one wants to ignore, hover the mouse pointer over the user name ( don't click on it ), the profile page is opened , go to bottom right and click on "ignore" and do what the instructions say. -

Is there anything good about getting old?
I chose the better path so I didn't have any children to grow as adults. I didn't waste any of my life apart from the lost years in my 2 relationships with toxic women. Luckily it wasn't a great deal of my life, just a couple of extended interludes between better things I admit that now I am just wasting time waiting to pass over the great divide, but the body isn't up to much any more. Being insulted on AN is about as exciting as my life gets now. -

Truck Crashes Into School Vehicle at Intersection, Injuring Multiple Students
Picture from responders, CCTV below. At approximately 15:40 on December 9, a truck collided with a car, which then struck a school transport vehicle and a farm truck at the Pak Puan intersection on Maliwan Road, Pak Puan village, Wang Saphung district, Loei province. The crash resulted in injuries to numerous schoolchildren. Eyewitnesses reported that the incident occurred during school dismissal. A pickup truck modified as a school vehicle was carrying about 20 students from Pak Puan School, ranging from kindergarten to secondary school levels. The school transport vehicle had stopped at the red light, preparing to turn right into Pak Puan village. Ahead of it was a farm truck loaded with sacks of rice, also stopped at the light, while a white car was positioned behind the school vehicle. Suddenly, a truck, reportedly returning from a construction site and equipped with a lifting crane o the rear, slammed into the car, propelling it into the school vehicle. The impact pushed the school transport vehicle into the farm truck ahead, causing severe damage. Most of the students sitting in the rear of the school vehicle sustained injuries. Among them, a student suffered serious leg injuries, with one leg reported to have been torn off. Emergency responders quickly transported a total of 19 injured individuals to Wang Saphung Hospital for treatment. Police detained the truck driver for questioning and legal proceedings. Pak Puan intersection has been the site of frequent accidents, often caused by drivers running red lights, according to local residents. -- 2024-12-10 ScreenRecording_12-09-2024 18-58-50_1.mp4
