I'll humour you.... What actual evidence is there ??? go on, list any evidence. This highlights a worrying lack of intelligence.- 1

Anecdotal News about Covid-19 Vax harms
The Pandemic’s Wrongest Man In a crowded field of wrongness, one person stands out: Alex Berenson. The Atlantic April 1, 2021 ... "The vaccines have inspired his most troubling comments. For the past few weeks on Twitter, Berenson has mischaracterized just about every detail regarding the vaccines to make the dubious case that most people would be better off avoiding them. As his conspiratorial nonsense accelerates toward the pandemic’s finish line, he has proved himself the Secretariat of being wrong: ... Usually, I would refrain from lavishing attention on someone so blatantly incorrect. But with vaccine resistance hovering around 30 percent of the general population, and with 40 percent of Republicans saying they won’t get a shot, debunking vaccine skepticism, particularly in right-wing circles, is a matter of life and death. ... Their hesitancy is being fanned by right-wing hacks, Fox News showboats, and vaccine skeptics like Alex Berenson. The case for the vaccines is built upon a firm foundation of scientific discovery, clinical-trial data, and real-world evidence. The case against the vaccines wobbles because it is built upon a steaming pile of bull<deleted>." https://archive.ph/u2jjV -

Am I doing something wrong?
If the ELCB is tripping it is possible you have a partial short to earth somewhere in your wiring that the unit is detecting and tripping, this is even more likely as you have had 2 units doing the same thing. -

Coming in visa exempt.. whats need right now (Jan 2 2024)
I have often puzzled over this explanation. I am not saying it wrong - I simply puzzle a bit about it. While I know of (and have on rare occasion encountered myself) case where (when at the airport on my way to Thailand, with me planning on visa exempt) I have been asked for an onward bound ticket (and I had such a ticket) .. I struggle a bit to see how producing an onward bound ticket protects the airline. I guess its a 'policy' protection for the airline , but not an actual protection (as the onward ticket , even if a real ticket, may not be usable in practice)? For example, Thai airways in Frankfurt, on occasion (not always) for Frankfurt to Phuket (or Frankfurt to Bangkok) flights are known to have asked for onward tickets out of Thailand. Typically if one has such a ticket (ie a REAL ticket) it is for a flight a few weeks or so after one's planned arrival in Thailand it may or may not be usable if there is a problem at Thai immigration. I don't recall Thai immigration ever ask me for an onward bound ticket, ... but If Thai immigration were to deny me entry (say hypothetical because I had entered Thailand too many times in the past in a recent time frame when trying visa exempt), how is a real ticket in 3 weeks time going to help the airline? At most it 'might' help me get through immigration to enter Thailand (hypothetically). Hypothetical , if entry is denied now by immigration - then a ticket 3 weeks later won't help one leave Thailand now. The flight departure date must be changed. And often many of us book cheap tickets where a change to the ticket's flight date can not be changed. I assume being required to get an onward bound ticket, is to just give the airline confidence that one has a better chance of entering Thailand (if one has done so multiple times in the past). I can't see it getting the airline off the hook for having to fly one out of Thailand (other than a possibly get out of a fine to the airline by immigration). I suspect also, anyone in that situation (denied entry) even if the Airline is on the hook, one will have the Airline chase after them for the unplanned ASAP exit flight costs for flying out of the country. I sometimes think this is just one of those "This is Thailand" sort of things. i.e. something one should know about and be prepared for, but the logic behind such does leave some unanswered questions - where indeed there may be answers - but just not obvious to all of us. . -

Good fortune: PM Paetongtarn’s assets exceed 13 billion baht
I wouldn't know. Never been one. But since you've once again directed your subjective narrative at me... Nope...wrong again, as usual...but that's expected from extremist right-wing fanatics. No clue what you're on about (again) with the inaccurate assumptions and blatantly false claims... FYI...I'm a lifelong, true blue thru & thru American Capitalist 🇺🇲 who never had a freakin' thing given to me from the government, nor family. Been working since age 10. Had a brilliant 35 year career in the US aviation industry. E-Z livin' with great pay, benefits and time off. Invested wisely...mostly in US markets, but also international and emerging. PAID all my taxes and retired extremely well off at 59. Now you're privy and can consider yourself actually informed for a change. 👍 -

Same democrat lie that helped them lose the election, Trump never incited insurrection or has been charged with it.- 1
