  1. He'll now claim he has the mandate to push through compulsory vaccinations and vaccine passports.
  2. I expect once they've got away with giving them one dose, there will be calls later to give them more.
  3. It's not as simple as that. These guys were not angels. From the article linked in the OP: "We [Thailand Bail Legal Services] assisted with their swift deportation, and both Mr. Luke Cook and Mr. Tyler Gerard are now back in their respective home countries – Australia and the United States of America." Dissmissal of all charges, but still deported. Strange...
  4. Yes, the Daily News article linked in the OP makes no mention of the wife having been stabbed.
  5. The point is that foetuses are undergoing rapid change with cell division so are particularly susceptible to foreign substances not normally found in nature which could interfere with that process.
  6. CCTV of the robbery and arrest. She would have got away with it if someone hadn't stuck their foot out!
  7. Root canal will involve the cost of the crown and fitting it.
  8. There is a brief Facebook video clip of the altercation on Brighttv, taken from Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jmoivplusss/videos/547984183090474 Brighttv reported that he only paid 40 Baht of the 70 Baht fare and in addition, threw the money at the taxi driver. Staff in the hotel and the motorcycle taxi riders in the stand outside all spoke in unison to say he did this regularly even with the motorcycle taxis, resulting in none of them wanting to take him as a passenger anymore. Would be interesting to hear the farang's side of the story. https://www.brighttv.co.th/news/cheat-fare
  9. Wonder why Trudeau called such an early election? Probably has plans for compulsory vaccinations and vaccine passports and if he's given the mandate will use that to push it through. Let's hope they're not using Dominion voting machines.
  10. In Thairath they reported that the Burmese man, who was known to the father, had taken the girl as some sort of gift to the mountain gods. Hope the hospital did a physical examination afterwards. Tharath also stated that police found no mosquito bites on her, despite finding her abandoned in a jungle hut, leading them to believe she had been kept somewhere else prior to being abandoned there.
  11. There will be continued variants discovered requiring vaccinations, lockdowns, restrictions and loss of freedoms until the final Covid variant which will be called communism.
  12. Sounds like maybe the uninstall couldn't complete until reboot because a file was in use and locked.
  13. I've found tubeless tyres are easier to fix punctures on compared to ones with a tube. On tubeless ones, you can use one of the DIY puncture repair kits and repair it yourself in 5 minutes without having to remove the wheel and tyre. Tyres with a tube fitted require wheel and tyre removal.
  14. As a work around, start Task Manager and see if you can see any likely running process such as Pop Tray.exe or notifier.exe etc. If you can find it, R-click it and select 'Open File Location' and rename it to something else eg Pop Tray_old.exe
  15. Yes, I know. I've even seen reports it was installed sucessfully and runs on an old Core 2 Duo. What I meant was Microsoft have said that they will prevent updates to computers not meeting system requirements, even if you can get it installed, once the final release is out. It was bypassing the update restrictions I was referrring to.
  16. Can't help but think there will be hacks around to bypass that in due time.
  17. Story made the BBC's English language news website today with a report by Jonathan Head. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-58405215
  18. The classic borscht soup goes down well. I've tried this recipe before, but used 1 litre of stock instead of 1.5, to thicken it up. Don't skimp on the soured cream or crème fraîche. https://my.morrisons.com/blog/food/beetroot-recipes/
  19. It should be remembered for all those people who implicitly trust doctors and scientists and what they're telling people about the efficacy and safety of the vaccine, medical knowledge and practice has a very short half-life. In the 1980s medical knowledge half-life was only 7 years and currently it's reported as only 2 years. For example, if, as a conservative estimate, you take the 1980s figure of 7 years, half of all the medical knowledge currently known today and held to be true will no longer be in use in 7 years time due to variously, better medicines or procedures coming along, they're not found to work, or they're actually found to be dangerous. This can be compared to some of the other sciences eg Physics, where knowledge from centuries past eg Newton's laws of motion and gravity, Einstein's theories of relativity still hold true today. As an example, up until as late as the 1980s, doctors used to give lobotomies for eg depression where they drill holes in the skull and sever connecting nerves in the brain. It was touted as a miracle cure at the time, despite patients being left as vegetables. Some very conspicuous failures, including a lobotomy that reduced John F. Kennedy's elder sister, Rosemary, to a near-vegetative state, helped turn public opinion against the surgery and it went out of favour. Another example is tonsil surgery. In the 1960s in the UK, it was a very popular operation for children. Children were always having their tonsils whipped out on some pretext. Nowadays it's much rarer. Also to be remembered is the thalidomide scandal in the 1950/60s where pregnant women were encouraged by doctors to take the drug for morning sickness with tragic results. A more recent example is the vioxx recall.
  20. In France a few days ago, they protested at the introduction of Covid Passports for restaurants by picnicking for free in the streets outside the restaurants and wearing yellow star badges.
