Clear from day 1
Well, the hearts and minds of Ukrainians, that ship has sailed long ago now. Apart from the Russian Ukrainians who make up a sizeable number of Ukrainians. It was funny to see how they translated school messages in Western schools into Ukrainian for Ukrainian refugees, only to find they do not speak Ukrainian, only Russian. The convoy on Kiev never engaged Kiev properly and disappeared in a few days, it was most likely a decoy to confuse the enemy and bind troops there, while the Russians attacked elsewhere. They never intended to absorb Ukraine, because you can see it by the evidence, where the fighting is contained. Had Putin really wanted to conquer all of the Ukraine he would not just have sent a decoy toward Kiev, but would really have attacked western Ukraine in a substantial manner, something which has not happened to date. Putin has allowed large parts of Ukraine to remain intact. Naturally Russia wants a regime in Ukraine that is friendly toward Russia, but it can achieve that by means that do not resort to installing their own men. -

Mass Arrests Follow Violent Far-Right Demonstrations Across the UK
How many legal migrants are there (that you no doubt approve of), and how many British people selfishly die each year? How many selfishly die without having children? And how many Brits are born? I am sure you have this info as you as so concerned with the population of the UK. -

Grounding from a wall socket/receptacle/outlet: Is it safe?
Dear Folks, Do you think this Thai-Style method of grounding might be safe? Here is the scenario: a. I live in a house which was built before proper grounded electrical system might have been required by PEA. b. I assume that there are codes in Thailand which govern the way an electrical system for a house should be installed. However, my house has only two wires leading to the wall sockets, and no third grounding wire. Also, the breaker box or circuit box is not grounded. c. So here is the thing: 1. I need to use a washing machine in the kitchen. 2. The socket/receptacle has no third grounding wire, even though the socket has a three-way receptacle. 3. The Thai technician intends to run an extra wire from the third grounding point in the receptacle outside the house, and then drive some sort of grounding stake into the ground. And then, this will be declared safely grounded, or so he says. d. However, it seems to me that this method of providing a "safe" socket for plugging-in of a washing machine might not be up to code. e. In this house, I also have several ACs. And, each time the installer adds an AC, then the installer just runs a wire outside the house, to a short stake that he has driven into the ground. f. Now, it seems, that the electrician plans to do the same thing for the washing machine: He will run a wire from the socket outside to a short stake that he will drive into the ground, and call it done. g. It bothers me that there are more than three grounding points. I.e. There are several ACs all connected to the same electrical CB box, which is not grounded. And, each of these machines has their own separate ground. Really weird. h. The wall receptacle in the kitchen looks like this: And, the technician intends, as I have just stated, to run another wire from the ground terminal to an outside grounding point. i. It just seems to me that if a single house has multiple grounding points, and no ground from the CB, then this might lead to current being passed back and forth willy-nillyl. j. So, for the purposes of this inquiry: Does anyone think that it might be OK, for operating a washing machine in a kitchen, to have the ground connected to the third grounding terminal in the wall receptacle where the washing machine will be plugged in??? This is the question. The Thai electrician says it's fine. But.... Is it fine? Tks. Regards, Gamma Important Note: I am just asking for informed opinions here. And, I will not hold anyone liable for providing information that might not be completely up to code. -

The Tim Walz thread.
His draft IS a war record. And bone spurs a fake claim. He didn't try. He just did. -

How can you make such a definitive statement, especially when the evidence points to otherwise? Marching on Kiev and having their alternative President ready to install points to a Ukraine under their influence does it not? Once under their influence they are on the borders of Europe. It goes both ways. So from what evidence your definitive statement that they 'never intended to absorb Ukraine completely'? I meant the hearts and minds of Ukrainians.. -

Nail Fungus Over the Counter Treatment
Without tests...sure, in countries like Thailand, India, Colombia. Only with tests in countries like Taiwan, Austria, the US. Can you spot the difference? Of course, rarely. If it weren't rarely that people die from itraconazole it wouldn't be on the market. But it has happened, apparently healthy, young people died from treatment of a toenail fungus. 555 I don't think so Anyway, OP asked for a topical treatment. Even if this often doesn't work, he can give it a try, why not? For OP: the diagnosis of toenail fungus is not that easy. Many doctors just look at it and say "it's fungus", but they are sometimes wrong. OTOH, the microscopic confirmation of fungus - which should be tried in any case - is not easy, results may be false negative. In a case where a dermatologist thinks it's fungus but fungus wasn't found, I would not hesitate to try a topical antifungal treatment - but not an oral treatment. -

Move Forward Party dissolved, leaders banned for 10 years - video
Yes, because any protests etc by Thais are quickly nipped in the bud by the thought of the muzzle of a tank being aimed at them. Maybe a "Guy Fawkes" type reeanaction could be in order? 🙂 -

Which members do you think are Russian/Chinese/NK etc bots?
In that thread talking about the right wing UK mobs attacking police and immigrants, I would say most of the accounts supporting them are Chinese/Russian bots and troll farms trying to rile people up. Immigration is their favorite subject. The more important question is what are the people who run this site planning to do about it? -
