The tip of the AI iceberg. Many famous women have been "nude faked" and the pictures posted online. Bad enough for adults, but think of how this could psychologically affect some of these schoolgirls. There are even AI scam ads on Youtube using famous faces to draw people into their dodgy deals. Deep fake photos and videos are everywhere. School kids are using it for all sorts of things nowadays. Including homework, essays etc. As AI improves and gets more powerful, schools will have an uphill battle trying to distinguish the cheats from the studious. Scary stuff.

Is that a military uniform he is wearing? I thought he is a politician, not a soldier. Is he suddenly planning to lead from the front? Or photo op?

I saw loads of Burmese being pulled up last Sunday for not wearing helmets. I felt sorry for them as they only earn a pittance. Taking what must be almost a weeks wages from them seems like overkill.

Whatever Trump's aims are or were, there is a way of doing things, and his isn't it. Surely he could have argued and negotiated his tariffs without alienating his allies, insulting China and causing them to block all exports of rare earths to the US, and look more forcefully towards de-dollarisation. How is that going to help the US? Offended Canada to the extent that Canadians have boycotted US goods and travel to the US. Same with Denmark over Greenland. He can't keep on blaming Biden. What sort of a President posts such crap as Biden being executed and replaced by a robot? He has destroyed the gravitas of the Oval Room, turning it into something resembling the Muppet Show.

IMHO I have to disagree. Sounds like she does have a brain on her though. That school she went to is said to be the most prestigious state high school in the country.

TIP: Once you get all the stamps changed to new passport. Before leaving Immigration, check your current stamps and Multiple Re-Entry Permit if you have one. Make sure that the IO has copied over the hand written parts too. Including correct dates. I got pulled aside on arrival at Suvarnabhumi, and taken to an office where I had a forty minute wait because hand written details were missing from one of my stamps. Wasn't a big problem, but I was delayed and once home, had to return to samui IO to get it sorted. Luckily I had plenty of time to make my connecting flight from BKK.

International flights are usually far too cold to endure without a jumper, fleece or some other warm, long sleeved item of clothing. Even more necessary when travelling in Europe's colder seasons. When landing at LHR in winter , I often see people departing the airport in shorts and t-shirts when I am wearing a warm jacket that I have unpacked from my suitcase. Maybe I have become too acclimatised to Thailand's hot weather. When I see people travelling in economy, wearing a shirt, tie and jacket for what is around a twelve hour flight, I often wonder if they are hoping to land an upgrade if available. I suppose there must be some advantage over the guy in the wife beater.

Do you mean like those Republicans that Musk offered a million dollar prize if they could prove they voted for his choice of candidate?

Mine was due June 2024. I deferred it until this coming June 2025. I was asked if I would like a lump sum of the year's deferred money, but chose to have the increased monthly pension instead. Though living here in Thailand it will be frozen once it starts. The person I spoke to told me that as I could buy some years, someone would be calling me to see if, and how many I would like to buy. Again, living here in Thailand with what will be a frozen pension, I am not sure if buying any extra years would be worth it.

It's easy for him to preach about not eating. Look at the gut on him!

When I saw the headline " Trump wants Canada to pay for his Golden Dome", I thought to myself "does that mean he wants a new wig?" 😀

Sell to Japan. Their rice price has gone through the roof.

i don't understand what is happening in the video. Was he accused of stealing? At about 1:46- 1:48, it looks like he gets something from his wallet, maybe a bank note and throws it on the table. before turning to leave.

Both stepping on Thai toes. Was bound to end badly.
