  1. You are probably in the best place, that's why the uber rich have many deluxe "end of the world" underground residences on the South Island. Maybe you can befriend some of them, they can use your local knowledge ????
  2. The Internet resilience is very complex topic but it boils down mostly to 2 core protocols - DNS and BGP. Don't want to go to technicalities but aseannow.com is resolved by the authoritative servers for the .com domain, and you can rightfully guess Thailand doesn't host the authoritative servers for .com..so Cloudflare can't help with this.
  3. I've participated in preparing IT disaster recovery plans for corporations, and can pretty much assure you that things like "global nuclear war" are not considered. The most critical component in these plans are the people, probably the smart cookies assumed in case of disaster like this pretty much nobody would turn up to perform their duties.
  4. Well if you brainwash the sheeple everyday with "nuclear nuclear nuclear", in the end they take it as given that nuclear war is quite possible, even winnable. The Russia - Ukraine conflict is just a warm up, Russia is not really a competitor, they can't produce even a good vacuum cleaner. The target is China, and if the competition can't be won by economics means, the only thing left is war.
  5. Do you think even for one second that the Thai Internet infrastructure is designed to sustain massive nuclear war? Not to mention that many of the sites are hosted outside Thailand, including probably this site. Most DNS servers will stop functioning properly if they can't reach the root DNS servers...me thinks you are totally out of depth here. The whole thing may be reconfigured with the right people at the right time, but that may take days and weeks, that's in case they are willing to turn up at all.
  6. This is not going to save you, you need really deep pockets... https://www.theguardian.com/news/2022/sep/04/super-rich-prepper-bunkers-apocalypse-survival-richest-rushkoff Although the uber rich are also not safe, the main issue being the reliability of the staff. If it is only me and you, you being uber rich and I being uber poor staff, single shot can change the roles...
  7. I would say within 15 minutes you won't be able to post any trolling post as the root DNS servers will be down across the world.
  8. Wait until the single brain cell warmongering trolls appear here with slogans like "Nuke them!" or "Our nukes are better than theirs".
  9. So you think in case of nuclear war the Grab drivers would roam through the radioactive clouds to deliver you radioactive food? Unbelievable.
  10. Try again. The first thing is to have air purifiers with the best HEPA filters that you can afford, don't forget that these require electricity so you need either solar or batteries. New release EV cars can help as you can draw power from it. Water is easier to secure as the bottled water lasts long time. Food is even easier. The only thing which can't be prepacked is air, and this is where the radiation will come from. And don't worry about the uber rich, they prepared expensive bunkers in New Zealand with swimming pools and food to last for 5 years.
  11. This subject was thoroughly researched from both sides during the Cold War. Go search the Internet or buy a book to educate yourself, instead of seeking the opinions of people which probably dropped from high school. There were many models loaded with possible inputs and generating outcomes, most predicting the end of the world as we know it.
  12. Thumbs up for the post office too. At the moment Kerry may handle larger dimensions cheaper, but probably the OP is not shipping 75 in TV. Also if near Pattaya check if is not cheaper to use the new ferry service, probably there are no extra charges for bigger baggage for the passengers. You can also buy a motorbike near Pattaya if cheaper and come with the ferry. However not sure yet whether the ferry service is on regular schedule now????
