  1. Are you sure it's a good idea to publish something like this here? Thinks can go wrong. Very wrong! I think for people who are not used to playing around with electricity, it's best to buy quality products from brand name companies - with warranty.
  2. I feel safe in Thailand. I don't think the safety in Thailand will change much in the foreseeable future. Putin is not mad. He knows what he is doing. And it seems he gets away with almost anything. I am most concerned about the USA, their military industrial complex, and their millions of christian fanatics. Many of them are looking forward to the rapture, they want war in the middle east, the bigger, the better. Many Evangelicals See Israel-Hamas War as Part of a Prophecy - Bloomberg
  3. I cut it with an angle grinder. I am sure an ordinary metal saw will also work.
  4. My comment was about wet tissues, which someone recommended. See above.
  5. How? I guess there will be some kind of sensor to make sure a person is sitting on the toilet.
  6. I guess this thread shows the age of many members here. Many of us remember the good old times from 20 or more years ago. But few of us know what is currently happening late at night... One of my first activities on the internet in about 1994 was to read the newsgroup about Bangkok. One person asked about Thermae and what's going on there. One guy answered like this: You can't really compare it with anything. But if you want to compare it to something then think about the bar in StarWars (obviously the original movie). Thats the closest comparison that fits. I agree. Those were the times.
  7. I suggest google the product name and "wiring diagram" or something similar.
  8. I think the only good option for you is to find a decent electrician. I understand that might be difficult. But it will still be easier than learning all you need to know yourself. And as you know mains voltage can kill you. It's not something you want to play with and find out you made some mistake. To find a decent technician I suggest talk to businesspeople. Maybe there is an international hotel near you. Find out if they have an electrician and ask him if he knows someone he can recommend (probably he will recommend himself). But be prepared for bad news. Many electrical installations in Thailand are absolutely horrible. There is no good and easy way to fix them. The only good way is often rip it out and do it again. Good luck. You will need it.
  9. You could check in the news of that time what she did. And you could read about why she fled out of Thailand. I guess the only excuse which she has is that she didn't know what she did. She just followed the orders of her brother. If you think she is innocent, then I guess you lived for too long in a red village or you get your "news" from fb and Nit and Noi.
  10. 555 High fines would be a good idea. And obviously someone has to enforce the laws. I thought that is the job of the police, but it seems they don't think so.
  11. Look at the top of the page. I guess the low Soi numbers are the reason why they call it lower Sukhumvit.
  12. Mostly I wake up when the sun rises. And I am most productive in the morning. That is the case for me, and my gf. If you want to wake up in the afternoon and party or work all night that is fine with me. Whatever you like.
  13. But many are utterly stupid. Not all, but many. Are you one of those woke worriers who don't want to hear the truth anymore?
  14. I have no problem if they drink water of coke from such machine. It costs basically nothing for the restaurant and helps the drivers through the day.
  15. The Nana hotel disco and Thermae - the good old times. I will never forget that back entrance from the old Thermae. Was it through the kitchen first and then the toilet or the other way around? What a f u place - and packed every night.
  16. It's in the Bangkok forum, that should be a hint.
  17. Returning is easy, there are lots of flights available. 😉
  18. She should come back, and then she should obviously go to prison. And then let's see if she is the next most sick criminal in Thailand. The problem is obviously that she is too young to be freed because she is old and sick. So what next? She didn't mean it? She just followed orders? She is a Shinawatra? Or what will be the reason to free her as well?
  19. I guess I could do that. But IMHO many of them look pretty rough. I guess I would look the same if I would have partied until 6am. So, when I just woke up and on my way to the fresh market, I am probably not compatible with them.
  20. That reminds me of all the bars where the cops drink for free, mostly alcohol, and a lot. Are there any netizens concerned about that? Or do that know that this is just the way it is, nothing to see here.
  21. If they would use AI then you could expect better headlines.
  22. It seems to me that job is about as low as it gets. If you don't get any other job, do that one. I don't expect anything from those guys. Many of them are utterly stupid.
  23. Now the poor black swan will feel like an Isan girl who comes to the city and everybody else is "white". That girl will buy some whitening cream. The swan doesn't have that option. 😉
  24. Thanks, that looks interesting. You are right. Can you recommended such shop(s)?
  25. The damage seems to be only at the open side of the balcony. You don't show the rest of the walls, presumably because there is no damage. That brings up the question of what is at the open side of the balcony which is not on the "inner" parts. Rain and sun.
