  1. You can put a sign "for sale" on your land of your house and many people will see it. You can't do anything like that with a condominium. So how do you find people who are interested in buying your property? That is obviously only one of many aspects.
  2. Does it really matter how many tools are on the shelf? Maybe you buy now one of them, and in 3 months you would like to use the other one, but you don't have it. Then 3 months later the same situation again. And then? Likely you will buy also the 2nd tool. And then you ask yourself: Why didn't I buy both of them and avoid the headache?
  3. Maybe I just don't have enough imagination. How do you make a straight precise cut in wood with an angle grinder?
  4. In the last two years I bought a couple of Bosch Professional 18V tools. They all have enough power and the batteries last.
  5. A circular saw is not a table saw. And circular saws and angle grinders are both available battery powered.
  6. I don't know. As far as I remember she was years at that school. And then she started to work in a 5-start hotel (and I think later in another one). That school seems to have a very good reputation. But the girl was also highly motivated. So, it's not surprising that she is successful now.
  7. It's some time since I used it. But as far as I know Norton Ghost ghost32.exe still works with SSDs.
  8. In general, backup and clone software are something different. I will look for clone software if you need that, and/or backup if you need backup. Not same, different.
  9. I used Samsung software. It is free and works fine with Samsung SSDs, maybe also with others. I am sure other manufacturers have their own free software.
  10. I don't think there is a "better" between those two. I have both, and many other tools, and I never thought if I should us the circular saw or the angle grinder. It was always obvious which one should be used. I use the circular saw for straight, sometimes precise, cuts in wood. I use the angle grinder to cut metal, sometimes in places where it would be very difficult to use a saw. In theory I could also use the angle grinder for stone, but I have no need for that. What you might want to consider is a multitool, with carbide blade. Depending on what you do this might be helpful instead of above tools.
  11. I hope she continues like this, and hopefully more and more GOP politicians will support her. That will maybe help the rest of the GOP supporters to finally wake up and realize how crazy that party is now. I know it's not only the GOP with crazy politicians, but the definitely win that they have the craziest nutters on their side. I wonder if that country will ever return to a situation where people accept facts and talk about facts and not just alternative facts. I don't have much hope.
  12. I know a girl who learned to cook professionally in Thailand, successfully - but I don't know where she learned. One way to find out is to talk with restaurant managers or hotel F&B and HR managers what they are looking for. I am sure they know good schools possibly in your area or further away.
  13. Don't worry, that goes away after a decade or two in Thailand. 😉
  14. Hopefully all tourists who want to get wet will go to Chiang Mai or anywhere far away from Bangkok. Enjoy!
  15. IMHO Thailand is just fine. And I feel comfortable here. One reason for that is that I don't think too much about what Thais do or don't do or why they do it. They do it jus the way they do it, it's best not to think about why. And that helps to stay relaxed.
  16. I would be surprised if there are not some jobs available to make money. Maybe not jobs to write home about, and maybe not well paid. But jobs. And if we get better with time we get better jobs and more money.
  17. My parents, which I guess were the generation before the boomers, were very careful how they spent their money. They never visited restaurants, except when they were away from home. They also looked for good prices when they bought food and anything else. This is how they could afford a house and had money when they retired. I spend a lot of money in restaurants, for cars, and entertainment. And, obviously, I couldn't afford a house because I used the money for other things. Somehow I am pretty sure this is similar for millennials. It's up to us how we spend our money. If we spend it for A and B, then we should not be surprised that there is less money for C.
  18. It sounds like Australia is more suitable for you.
  19. And when did she realize that she has to learn more than her parents told her? And when did she start to learn all those things. I am sure we all will find things which our parents didn't tell us. And then we learned it somewhere else. And obviously that is not just a millennial issue. But maybe more millennials listen to other millennials how bad life is.
  20. Can we please see a statistic how often Thais do the same and how often they are arrested. And did the American take away the teenager from the house of the parents? Or did the parents send their child to work as a prostitute and then they discovered that they can make even more money when they accuse those bad farangs?
  21. Look at the individual files. Maybe all important files are already on your computer. Sometimes there are sample files or ads included which you don't need. And maybe those not important files are not available. Otherwise, wait and hope for the best.
  22. Sometimes the smell comes from outside, i.e. a sewage system somewhere, maybe many stories, below the bathroom window.
  23. I find it almost funny when I see in hospitals that people should remove their shoes when they go to the scale to check their weight. I refuse to do that. I don't want to put my unprotected feet on the exact spot where many sick people (remember, this is a hospital) had their feet on the same day.
  24. a) if you would pay attention then you would have to ask me to list the well-known problems. Just look at the news and read some articles. b) Racing drivers do that to control cars under difficult conditions. I am pretty sure ordinary drivers don't need that.
