  1. Plus towers are relying on the fact that the tsunami occurs during daylight hours, which is only 50% of the time in Thailand.
  2. I never said that anyone ever said that I said the watch towers were being manned, what I said was I never said the watch towers were manned emphasizing that I did not express that particular idea or opinion.
  3. According to Thai TV reports, he coerced them into the trunks on the premise of making a YouTube video
  4. I never said the watch towers were manned, just that they had 100 watch towers. They withdrew the “Watchers” during Covid an as, of yet, have not reinstated such. I also don’t know why they have ordered a replacement buoy from the USA without examining the present one first (still not recovered by RTN) they are aware that the batteries require replacing every two years don’t they. … Don’t they? The tsunami monitoring buoy must be maintained annually for two years, which is the battery lifespan. Source
  5. Thailand Tsunami warning system consists of Two buoys and 100 watch towers
  6. Nice to see the efficiency of the Royal Thai Navy, requested to retrieve it 7 August and 5 months later still not done. If the Buoy is “En Route” for the USA why will it not be here until March? That’s another 48 days away, even by boat at 10 knots it should only take 29 days to cover the 9000 mile pacific route from San Francisco. As for “Wont be deployed until November” 8 months, why? Is this estimate base on the fact it has taken the RTN over 5 months to retrieve it so expect 8 months to deploy it

    So, for the most knowledgeable answers using ChatGPT don’t use ChatGPT, that makes sense.

    I agree, it is fine for drafting letters, proposals etc for people whom struggle with the written word but that’s about it. Try asking it about xxx Satellite or yyy Companies business, something you have intimate knowledge of, then compare the results to what you actually know, there will be glaring discrepancies. And the answers to the jokes is previous post are actual ChatGPT answers copied and pasted direct from the App
  9. I don’t know of Fang but I am sure I have met her Sister Sum Tin

    To test out AI ask it a question that you know the answer to, something from your specialist field, and see how incorrect and even biased the results are. They contain the inherent bias of the AI Developers. Ask it for jokes about gays and you get I'm sorry, but I cannot provide jokes that target specific groups of people, including those based on sexual orientation. If you have any other non-offensive topics in mind, feel free to ask for a joke or information. Ask it for jokes about blacks and you get I'm sorry, but I won't provide jokes that target specific racial or ethnic groups. If you have any other topics or types of jokes you'd like to hear, I'm here to help with that. Ask it for jokes about women and you get I'm committed to promoting respectful and inclusive content. I won't provide jokes that target or stereotype any gender. If you have other non-offensive topics in mind, feel free to ask for a joke or information on a different subject. Ask it for jokes about men and you get Sure, I can share a light-hearted joke that isn't directed at any specific group: Why did the man put his money in the blender? Because he wanted to make some liquid assets! What a bunch of Arse, all the AI Developers are Woke twats and all answers have a woke Bias / Agenda. Of course the under 40’s buy into this shit and find nothing wrong with it
  11. Have they not heard of the 26 Million Muslims in Malaysia and the 235 Million Muslims in Indonesia which far outnumber the 3.75 Million in Thailand I am pretty sure that they are ahead of Thailand as a”Halal Hub” How many more “Hubs” will Thailand claim to be?

    Shouldn’t this be “All of Us?” I would has at a guess that most members are well over 50 by now, and KS is probably the youngest of the lot. Note This is not an attack on post or the poster, just a casual observation.
  14. I stand corrected myself, since 1986 Professionals have been allowed to compete in the Olympics except for Boxing and Wrestling, shows how much interest I pay to the Olympics. Why 86 I don’t know it wasn’t an Olympic year, it was Football World Cup in Mexico, Maradona a hand of God goal, cheating Argie Bastard.
  15. So going by your view all olympians are just Hobbyists
  16. Surely Not all Bottles of wine are the same price so duty is not a fixed amount it duty is 1500 Baht @ 10% then it is only 750 Baht @ 5% not 1000 Baht, that is 6.667% Only Local tourist drink Local made Liquor, it won’t affect Johnny Walker etc what foreigners usually drink The Nightclubs and Bars will just pocket the 5% reduction not actually reduce prices Another piece of top class journalism from Pattaya, what is in the water there.
  17. Since when did Sports and Leisure forum become exclusively Thai / Asian, all those Football, American Football, English Football Thai360 Competitions, Cricket, Olympics and so on threads must have really boiled your piss, but Darts was one to many. Thanawat Gaweenuntawong
  18. As I said, stupid list, there are 22 entries of which only 4 are actual dry days, the 4 Buddhist days, the other 18 are irrelevant. This is not a list of Entertainment Closures and No Alcohol Days, it is a list of all the occasions in Thailand and the 18.18% of the time venues will be closed and alcohol will not be (officially) sold.
  19. So I should not trust anything that you post then since you never read / verify what you do post but just repeat it parrot fashion. OK Polly
  20. Why? Pattaynews.com didn’t post this article on this forum, you did
  21. If this is a list of 2024 Bar Closure and No Alcohol days, why is listing days when bars are open and alcohol sales are allowed?
  22. I know it is far fetched but I do so much want THIS to be true
  23. Have you heard about the Kiwi insomniac? He tries to sleep by counting sheep, it works he gets horny, has a wank then nods off.
  24. The wife of Julian Assange has paid tribute to campaigning journalist John Pilger as a “consistent ally of the dispossessed”. Stella Assange, whom the WikiLeaks founder married while in prison, was among those who called the ITV documentary maker “one of the great” journalists. Pilger had pushed for the release of Assange, who has been in the high-security Belmarsh Prison in London since he was removed from the Ecuadorian embassy, and criticised his friend’s imprisonment Source Assamge The Untold Story
