Looking to buy a new SUV - any recommendations?
The thing is those arguments could become secondary concerns if a hydrogen car sees production which: 1) Like the new Toyota Yaris GRH2 only takes a minute and a half to fill completely full of Hydrogen, is even faster to fill up than a petrol car, let alone 8 hours overnight like for a BEV. 2) Is far more resiliient to hot and cold climates. Lithium batteries can withstand up to -140 degrees Fahrenheit before they start to freeze up, which can still occur occasionally. Hydrogen can withstand -435 degrees Fahrenheit, which shows it is the best choice in cold temperatures worldwide. The same holds true when comparing the hot end of the spectrum: Hydrogen has a much broader climate adaptability than the other two options currently available. 3) Which will not run out of material to build batteries, like BEVs soon will. Lithium batteries are not made out of materials that can easily be produced. In fact, many people, such as the CEO of Toyota (former CEO Akio Toyoda), see a shortage of lithium and battery-grade nickel, which means that there will be a lack of materials needed to produce the lithium batteries used in EVs. That could create a major setback in the move towards electric vehicles, which could be avoided by using hydrogen-powered engines if they are engineered to maximize their full potential. 4) Sounds like a real car, not like a dead remote. 5) Is not as prone to exploding as lithium battery BEVs 6) Is much longer lasting than lithium battery BEVs. Given all the above advantages most consumers would then choose a hydrogen car rather than a BEV. -

Suggestions for a new, not to expensive, laptop for retiree.
External SSD drives are expensive little suckers. I still just use HDD for backups and storage. That's all they are - backup and storage - so there really isn't any need for speed. Well, imho. I just bought another 2TB HDD USB 3.0 drive to store some virtual machines backups. They're plenty fast for just backing stuff up. -

No more fast track immigration arrivals at BKK airport for biz/first class passengers?
I assume when previous PM instructed to sort out long arrivals waiting after numerous complaints, they just added the space to economy. Crowds got better distributed out. Never mind the premium pax. With sep. lines for seniors, disabled & families with kids there is no fasttracking for this froup either. Large young families with 1 kid & all members get preference? 1 wheelchair with 10 fam. members in tow. All get preference? I expect more ppl will find a reason to ask for wheelchair. But: how long will it take before Thai premium pax will complain about being stuck in the economy queue? When I returned in July ppl queued all the way into main walkway. -

Jealous Husband Sets Woman on Fire, Leaves Her in Critical Condition
It appears that the person who took the photo in the OP was more interested in taking a picture at this appalling incident than trying to help this poor woman. Water comes to mind. -

You may have pre-ejaculated with the tipping ladder Will. Check again. Anyway, splendid effort RIP with your win. If my research is correct, you got the weekly chokkies only once during the season, so you also get the BP Quiet Achiever award for consistency. Thanks to all participants. Should be a cracking finals series. -

How on earth do you Diet in Thailand ?
How to teach a TGF to cook healthy meals? This thread gave me the necessary kick in the ass to improve my diet. Buying healthy food is a PITA but doable (no 7/11, hardly anything from BigC). But preparing food? When I said I really, really like fish - what I got was cooked fishbones I wouldn't even give to my cat. When I said I want vegetables I got a tasty salad - with about half a liter of sweet dressing. Fruit are a big no-no for Thais anyway. And huge portions of rice, of course - suitable for a worker in a quarry. I cannot cook, I don't really want to criticize her cooking, and sometimes it is difficult to flush things down the toilet. Any recommendations of healthy meals a Thai would recognize and willing to prepare? -

Financial Requirements to show Immigration for 60 Day visa
Every time I do a TR60 there are less requirements - five years ago it was a PITA but now it is a breeze. My latest one (this week) they do now incorporate your submitted photo onto the visa. -

Suggestions for a new, not to expensive, laptop for retiree.
None of my laptops have "died," they just become too slow when I know there are significantly faster systems - so I upgrade to faster hardware and generally give my old system away or keep them as a backup. But I do use these consistently. Many of them are thin enough to fit in your laptop bag with the laptop. No reason not to use them unless you're trying to conserve battery power. -

Looks like Americans fight most here?
Well, I'm glad you got that off your chest. You're probably good for another ten minutes until your inferiority complex kicks in. 😄- 1
