Got a pigeon problem? Time to break out the LASER!!!
Seriously I got rid of the pigeon nestling on my balcony with colourful windmill toy. I don't stay often in the condo and the pigeon decided to made a nest behind the air compressors and even laid eggs. Tried the scarecrow and fluttering plastic bags. Didn't work. Tied few colourful windmills and it has been a month, the pigeons didn;t return. Keeping my fingers crossed that this will work. -

Bangkok Police Nab Volunteer Rescuers in Cable Theft Crime
In a bizarre twist, police in Bangkok's Bang Rak district arrested a group of volunteer rescuers accused of pilfering telephone cables. The gang, caught red-handed in the Si Phraya area on the 8th of October, cleverly employed siren-equipped vehicles to extract cables from underground manholes. Major General Samart Promchat, leading the operation, unmasked the group of five suspects. The gang consisted of 32-year-old Kittipong, identified as the ringleader, along with 19-year-old Walinda, 22-year-old Natthawut, and two minors aged 17 and 14. Employing two pickup trucks, both disguised with rescue stickers, the group executed their thefts using audacious means. This operation wasn't their first strike—the police had been tracking their brazen cable heists across Bangkok. Their modus operandi involved using the guise of official vehicles to evade suspicion while committing these crimes. During their arrest, the police intercepted the suspects just as they were pulling cables using their modified white Isuzu D-Max and Toyota Revo vehicles. Each member had a designated role to ensure a quick and efficient operation. Kittipong, upon interrogation, confessed to the string of thefts dating back to May. He disclosed how they disposed of the cables for a profit, burning them to extract valuable copper. Legal repercussions are spreading beyond the thieves; law enforcement plans to pursue entities purchasing these stolen goods. Kittipong faces additional charges related to an unlicensed firearm, highlighting an alarming depth to their criminal activities. Colonel Thammasak Saranboon urged citizens to be watchful and report suspicious activities. He stressed the importance of recognising legitimate nighttime operations authorised by the National Telecommunications Company and made a plea for community vigilance. This arrest marks a significant victory in curbing cable thefts, underscoring the importance of public cooperation with police efforts. File photo for reference only -- 2024-10-09 -

Surprised no reaction from BYD owners on this forum
There are 2 different connectors. The car is powered by plugging in the wall charger. Once the V2L is connected power can only go one way and that is out of the car into the "grid connection" on my off- grid inverters. -

Trump’s Plans Would Increase US Debt Significantly More than Harris’s, Study Finds
We'll never really know how much debt would have been taken during the Trump administration were it not for the covid epidemic. Right before it, there was an acceleration. What we do know is that the covid pandemic had worldwide economic consequences. In the minds of Trump supporters, those consequences excuse the economy's performance under Trump, but not under Biden. -

Americans in Thailand Walk to Exercise the Right to Vote Overseas
Most likely, a bunch of old Americans with nothing better to do. Or at least organised by one. Americans know where and how they can vote while in Thailand. Even the Embassy has sent letters out with links to register and vote. -

Rapid Greening of Antarctica: Scientists Alarmed by Climate Change Impact
You cannot just compare the temperatures in past Geological eras with the current day. First, there are the Milankovitch cycles. Second, the biggest impact on global temperatures are position of the continents, in past eras they could be far North or South of their current positions, or not even exist. Third, oceanic currents; if they distribute heat to the poles you can get a far more equitable climate globally, or if not the reverse. A hell of a lot of guesswork involved in guessing those temperatures, sometimes on just a few bits of data. All we do know is that in the last 5,000 years temperatures have been fairly stable, but are now rising rapidly. The only thing which has changed are CO2 levels due to the industrial revolution and use of wood and fossil fuels. Nothing else has substantially changed. The effects of climate change are not always realised or predicted. Who would have guessed that forest fires would become much bigger and more common even at current levels of warming, and anyone want to holiday in Florida just now? (Milton, category 5). -
