  1. I think that is a talent of some (bar) girls. They give out very little information about themselves. They let the guy make up what he wants to see in them. And obviously guys see what they want to see, the perfect girl. If the girl doesn't contradict him with reality, then he gets exactly what he wants - at least in his own imagination.
  2. I know that they exist. But I don't know the rules and how they are arranged. One time I was surprised when a farang friend told me the story of a Thai guy with two daughters. The Thai guy had to work in Phuket, far away from home. His two daughters, in their twenties, realized that their father will have some requirements when he is away from home. He needs someone to take care of him and to have sex with. So they decided they will look for a mia noi for their father. True story.
  3. Recently he interviewed Mark Zuckerberg. I thought it was mostly an interesting interview. And I am not a Zuckerberg fan. I think he is able to get interesting guests because they know that he is truly interested. He doesn't have an agenda to show his guests in a certain light. He asks. And he listens. I like that.
  4. I think he is very good in what he is doing. And he does it different than many others. Sometimes he has 4h interviews. The beauty with shows like that is that there are many different people out there who do something similar, and it is up to us to watch what we like and ignore the others. And obviously we don't have to see all interviews. It's great to have a great selection.
  5. And do you expect truthful answers? It seems many Thais tell you what they think you want to hear. Truth is not so important.
  6. I remember seeing a video from a German woman living in the USA. She explained that there are huge differences in "dating" and what people expect. According to her in the USA dating seems to have an almost rigid structure what happens in which order and what makes a date a date. In Germany, and in other countries, that is not the case. I don't know how this dating concept works in Thailand, and probably there are different concepts depending on the age, etc. If you want to take it easy, then take it easy. If you call the same woman 3 days in a row, then probably she will have some ideas of what you want. If you call them maybe once a week then they will understand that probably you will do something else with other people, including women, the rest of the week.
  7. Yet, it seems when a bargirl found a husband and lives happily ever after without doing much work lots of girls see this and want the same. And it seems lots of (bar)girls see sex with guys not as such a burden like others, especially Christians, think it is. I think it's mainly a question of the attitude and religion. If you never learned that sex is sin, then it isn't sin.
  8. A long time ago I was with the school for 10 days in England. I didn't eat anything over there which I liked even a little. But later, in Thailand, I discovered pub food, i.e. roast, fish and chips, bangers and mash, and things like that. They are often good.
  9. Food from the local markets is a good idea, not just because of the cost. Often (always?) the vegetable and fruit are fresher and taste better on the fresh market. I personally still don't buy meat on those markets. Their type of cooling is not acceptable for me - but it seems others survive it.
  10. Thanks I think you know that the problem is often knowing exactly the "correct" words. I didn't grow up with English and when I worked with my father and later some construction sites all the words were not in English...
  11. Windows has several reset options, including keeping personal files. But in case of a virus I would save all personal files to an external device and then do a factory reset - just to be sure. And then, first thing, install all the updates including AV updates and only then copy the personal files back.
  12. It's some time ago that I did that. In principle you don't need internet to reset it. But it might be useful in case Windows checks for new drivers and other updates.
  13. And if you have a license then you can download it again from MS for free.
  14. Sorry, no. Lots of original Windows installations don't have a hidden partition and installation files. A connection to the internet is all you need to get the newest version, officially.
  15. It's built in Windows: Reset this PC Another option is that you download original Windows from Microsoft. If your PC was licensed before, then it will automatically be licensed after your new installation.
  16. Dumbing-down of almost everything. And don't forget the trigger warnings...
  17. Thanks, ordered. Lazada tells me I will receive it on the 20th July. Let's see. Thanks for everybody's help. I appreciate it.
  18. Thanks! Now if I would be able to but something similar locally that would be even better.
  19. There will always be a risk - like maybe Putin invades the country. But there is nothing without risk. If the climate would be soooooo important then lots of relative clean nuclear power plants would help a lot. And the funny thing in Germany is: They have the nuclear power plants already. They work. But politicians decided they want clean energy with no risk, and they switched them off, at high cost. And now they use (in part) coal power plants. What a bad joke!
  20. What would such a plan B be? Some of us get a monthly pension until we die. Ok, that will last until we die. And some of us don't have that. So they take whatever money they have and think about how long it will last. And that depends of course on how much we spend. I could try to live from 10 THB a month. I know it's possible, lots of Thais do it. I have to calculate it but I guess then I should be able to finance my life until I a over 100 years old. Or I sped 100k per month, enjoy life, and it won't last that long. Or something in between. I guess we all have to make an estimate how long we possible will live or want to live. I guess worst case I could go back to my home country when I run out of money. I guess they will still feed me. But that is not exactly what I want.
  21. Yesterday I saw this thing in a short video. I never saw something like this before. With some google image search I found the name Cable Dispenser. But when I search for that i.e. on Lazada I don't find anything. Does anyone know if devices like that are sold in Thailand? How do they call them in Thai or English? It seems they make it easy to roll cable from a roll.
  22. You can't or you don't want to? Noodle soup? BBQ meat? There is lots of delicious food out there.
  23. From my current point of view I don't think I want to be older than max 80. It seems for most guys (in Thailand?) they lose their brain capacity with 70 or maybe 75. I don't really see the point of getting old only to get older. Will I enjoy anything with 80 which I didn't enjoy more at earlier age? I don't think so.
