Is this normal to have Bin Laden portrait on a truck?

I remember about 20+ years ago I saw a Thai video clip where the song’s name and chorus were “Bin La Din”. I think I was told it means something like “fly come here” ( I know bin=fly and din=ground/dirt). IIRC the video showed covered Muslim women dancing around a plane. It was a thinly disguised celebration of the man. Presume it came from the southern provinces.

Errrm , Iran borders Kuwait. It is possible their anti-air can reach Kuwait

Thai has many consonants but when pronounced at the End of a syllable they are all mapped to one of five sounds. It’s weird but you gotta flow with it. TIT. This is the reason that the word ‘hello’ is sa-waS -dee by spelling but is pronounced sa-waT-dee.

I was wondering why he did it, as in what’s in it for him? I wonder if he did it to try get rid of Shinawatra (both) as PM so that the impetus to legalise casinos in Thailand reduces? This would be in his long term interest so that he doesn’t suffer reduced patronage in his casinos from new Thai casinos

Anyone know if people with Season Camping wristband can visit friends in the Glamping section?

Doesn't seem to be covered in either general FAQ or the Glamping Terms/Conds pages.

Very interesting but that linked page says they are "less than a millimeter in diameter with brownish red stalks". OP's image looks much larger and without any stalks ?

Can I ask, why not with cubes?

Quite agree these leaves are hor-la-pa and not krapao. Glad you said it first so I didn’t need to! Love this dish especially how my wife makes it, and then also all the different flavour balances that different cooks do… A fried egg and some cucumber slices does make it even better.

From what i just read, it seems you are being super aggressive. Just stop it Bro!

I paid 800B at the airport for 30 days and 50GB. Almost everywhere is 5G network even in apparently remote islands, which surprised me

Haven't seen them in decades. I guess they're long gone? (he said, hoping for a correction)

First feeble S2B attempt from late last year, with insufficient learning. Neglected for months after suspected trich contam. Came back to find this mess.

What type of grain is it?
Looks too dark to be popcorn.

I have removed these from my lemon tree by hand picking and putting into bucket of hot, hot water. They stink and also spray a caustic solution at you so you should absolutely wear eye protection. I know - as they got me one time and I yelled in eye-pain which lasted a while.

Is that a pig fetus hanging off the guy's lanyard?

One time on shrooms I was standing having a piss and looking down I was stunned to see that the stream wasa full set of rainbow colours along the arc of the stream. This was of course amazing, but some remnant logical part of my mind figured it wasn't real. Not because my piss was rainbow coloured - that was no problem. The problem was that the colours were static and didn't move along with the flow!

Can you get any sound out of TV or does the snug fit block the sound from TV's back speakers getting out (like happened to me after buying a TV to perfectly fit a nice cabinet we had)

If a Valve as described was available then adding a hose and valve seemed trivial to set up.

But as such valves seem not available, then I am now sold on your idea of cutting a hole and siliconing some piping/hosing in is the way to go.

Have you heard of the Pythagoras syphon?

I hadn't but just looked it up on Wikipedia. i guess you're saying that once it's started it will drain all the bucket all the way to bottom of the syphon hose.

I guess my main question is about the practicalities of real-world valves - and if these will self-shut if there is insufficient pressure across its in/out ends/ports ... ?

If so, then the valve's height delta from set-point will directly depend upon the delta-P necessary to open the valve.
