ICE vs EV, the debate thread
There's a lot of fuzzy logic in these EV topics which is likely why the confused emoji is so widespread. Perhaps we should start handing out badges to our wonderful EV owners. -

Landslide Buries Workers Inside High-Speed Rail Tunnel Construction in Nakhon Ratchasima
Picture from responders at the tunnel entrance August 25, at approximately 01.00, a landslide buried three vehicles and trapped workers inside a tunnel being constructed for the Thai-Chinese high-speed rail project in Chanut Subdistrict, Pak Chong District, Nakhon Ratchasima. The incident occurred while workers were excavating the tunnel, located about 600 meters deep, despite no rainfall at the time. According to witnesses, workers were operating backhoes and loaders when the mountainside suddenly gave way, causing a massive landslide that engulfed three vehicles, including a supervisor's car. The unexpected collapse sent a deafening noise through the site, leaving two workers and a supervisor trapped inside the tunnel. Rescue teams from the Sawang Metta Foundation and construction site staff are working to clear the entrance of the tunnel to reach those trapped. Earlier this morning the rescue mission was temporarily suspended, because when the backhoe was Being used to remove the soil it just continued to collapse and the rescue is likely to take several days. Pak Chong District Chief Kanatchanont Sricharoen, Chanut Subdistrict Mayor Sompong Rodtun, and local police have arrived at the scene near the Chanthuek Railway Station but are awaiting senior construction officials to proceed with further inspections and review the rescue plan. The Thai-Chinese high-speed rail project, which began construction in 2017, aims to connect Bangkok to Nakhon Ratchasima by 2026. The project is a key part of Thailand’s efforts to boost its economy and strengthen trade links with Mekong region countries, positioning the nation as a hub for rapid transportation in Indochina. -- 2024-08-25 Get the ASEAN NOW daily NEWSLETTER - Click HERE to subscribe Picture of the rescue scene. -

ICE vs EV, the debate thread
Again, you ignorance shines, as most testing & research shows the largest degradation of battery life is in the very early stages of life, then possible in the extreme later stages of battery life, which highly unlikely, the rest of the vehicle would last as long as the battery or motors. Unless one is really racking up the kms every year. It would take us over 25 years to put 500k kms on any vehicle. If we only drove necessary kms, might take 50+ years, to put on half that, as we only need to drive about 5k kms a year, if that. Kind of thought the Alzheimer's remark was spot on, since you already quoted & replied to the exact same info you wanted me to post. And less than 1 year ago. Does boggle the mind how you forgot something so specific. What's annoying is the people that have no interests in EVs, but spew a bunch of BS, they know nothing about. And question and ask for verification from those that own, and know exactly what they are talking about. I'm happy to be, and have been corrected occasionally, the the silliness some of you state and ask for is either complete & utter ignorance (no research) or simply trolling. Seems every EV thread is about 10% information offered, and 90% information of trolls being corrected. IMHO My last 10ish post on this thread proves that, as have offered nothing new, simply pointing out and correcting the BS. -

Cambodia Visa for Short Term Tourist
I'm not very smart so can you tell me how to scan passport? Can I first scan to my PC and use the pic? Also, somebody said "Not valid on land border" but menu shows "Bus ticket" so it should be OK? Do they really need in/out airline or bus ticket? How about hotel reservation? They ask that too. I'm getting ready for first trip to Cambodia. Thank you! -

President Kamala Harris
Per paragraph one, it lets in almost two million illegals a year before it does anything. The bill is designed to process illegals in and get them legalized as quickly as possible. It that's what you want, great. I want the border closed and illegal immigration stopped. I liked the bill the house passed over a year ago that Schumer refuses to bring to the floor. It actually tries to close the border and stop illegal immigration. -

Prime Minister Paetongtarn Visits Flood-Affected Nan Province, Distributes Aid by Boat
So what should Paethongtharn have done instead? She is the PM and the leader of the party? Did any other political party turn up to help out? Good for you helping your neighbours out. Consider what the PM should do when she has 60 or 70 million people to look after. -

Bangkok Restaurant Owner Accused of Slapping Foreign Tourists
It's mentioned in the OP, smarty, and it received a Michelin star 6 years ago The OP did not mention Michelin stars, "smarty", nor the restaurant's receiving one six years ago. "Smarty". Here's the OP... "A Michelin Guide-recommended restaurant in Bangkok finds itself embroiled in controversy as its owner faces accusations of attempting to slap foreign tourists following a reservation dispute. The incident came to light after Burapa Seiko, a Thai tour guide, detailed the altercation on the Facebook page พวกเราคือผู้บริโภค (“We Are Consumers”) on 22nd August. According to Burapa, the debacle began on the evening of 21st August. He arrived at the restaurant on Banthat Thong Road at roughly 6:30 PM to reserve a table for his five foreign clients. The restaurant staff declined his request, insisting that the tourists make their own reservations. Burapa informed them that he would be dining with the group, and they finally assigned him a queue number. When the foreigners arrived at 6:50 PM, they waited outside until their queue number was called at 8:10 PM. The group then entered the restaurant and placed their orders. However, Burapa briefly left to buy some snacks from a store across the street at his clients' request. Shortly thereafter, Burapa received a distress call from the tourists, stating that the restaurant had refused to serve them and asked them to leave. He rushed back to find out what had transpired. The restaurant accused him of violating its policies by supposedly selling the reservation to the foreigners. Burapa argued that he only made the booking on their behalf and waited outside with them. Despite Burapa's pleas to review security footage for clarity, the staff refused. He recounted that the owner, unable to communicate in English, yelled in Thai at the tourists, “What the <deleted>! I’ll slap you now if you don’t leave. I’ll call the police to drag you all out!” She reportedly raised her hand as if about to strike one of them. In the aftermath, Burapa and his clients left the restaurant, deeming the treatment unfair and violent. The story sparked public outrage, with many netizens sharing similar negative experiences at the restaurant. Criticisms ranged from poor service to allegations that the restaurant had illegally occupied public footpaths. The restaurant owner has yet to address these accusations publicly".- 1

That's the name of the tour guide, smarty I know that, "smarty", that's why I also posted the name of the restaurant, "smarty", but it was the guide who needed to be named and shamed. "Smarty".- 1
