  1. It would be funny if it wouldn't be so sad for some people who don't want to follow the stupid woke rules. Here is another sad case. And another crazy inclusive story.
  2. It's like asking if WhatsApp messages are secure. In principle yes, until the Israelis hacked it.
  3. Now I looked it up. Thanks. But I have to admit I still doubt if all these properties can be accurately measured with a little current and weight sensors. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioelectrical_impedance_analysis#Accuracy
  4. My gf hires from time to time an ordinary Bangkok Taxi-Meter. Until now he picked her up at our home in Sukhumvit. In maybe a week her niece arrives at Suvarnabhumi Airport and she wants that this taxi driver, who knows her village address already, will pick her up at the airport. Is that a problem? I ask because I read about problems with taxi drivers and other hired drivers like i.e. Grab. This is why I wonder if maybe the other taxi drivers, who maybe wait in the airport que for an hour, will try to make any trouble. What is your experience? And what is the best place to meet a privately hired taxi at Suvarnabhumi Airport?
  5. I wanted to ask exactly the same. I always find it amazing what some products claim to be able to do.
  6. The newest generation have a sophisticated navigation system. They don't bump into anything and they are even able to detect poo so that they don't bump into that one or try to clean it. But they are still far away from perfect and IMHO way too expensive. I guess in maybe 3 or 5 years they should be better and cost half or less. I won't spend 1000 USD now only to replace it with a better model in a year or two.
  7. To all the guys who seems to be a little confused about the thing with the Thai gf: Normally when I use the ATM I switch the language to English and I don't remember seeing any Angry Birds menu when I used the ATM. This is why I mentioned that this happened when my Thai gf used it, because she obviously uses Thai language. The Thai language didn't surprise me or her. The Angry Birds surprised her and then I looked at the ATM and the also surprised me. Now if you want to discuss your gfs maybe open your own thread about my one is different.
  8. The shop recommended the Bridgestone. But to be sure I looked at videos on YouTube about the other options. And the YouTube reviews say exactly what you say: The Pirelli is more for people who race, at least from time to time, and the Bridgestone is more suitable for daily riding. I guess it was not designed with Sukhumvit traffic in mind, but it will do the job. ????
  9. They offered me a set for my bike (size above): Pirelli rosso 3 = 5690 bath (incl installation)
  10. I suggest look for a brand name scale and buy from the flagship store or authorized dealer to be sure you get the real thing. https://www.lazada.co.th/catalog/?q=beurer+scale
  11. Yes, from far away it might be funny. ???? I look at it like a soap opera. You can't make it up.
  12. Actually, I also expected a higher price. But I didn't buy "big bike" tires for a long time. And the last time the bike was bigger and faster.
  13. I don't know what is a worse idea: Spending many billions on Twitter or on Mars.
  14. @GammaGlobulin "Did You Ever Get the FEELING that...You Are CRAZY?" It is good that you finally think about your situation. No, you are not alone with your feelings. And you should take them serious.
  15. Imagine Thailand politics would be about doing the best for the Thailand and the Thai people. Now it seems it's about dynasties. Super rich families fight to be in power to be even richer. And it seems most Thai voters play along with that. Sad!
  16. Yeah, he was very successful in enriching himself and his family. And he obviously thinks he is above the law. Are that the qualifications a PM should have?
  17. He is obviously pretty smart. But is he as smart as he thinks he is? For most smart people, even the supersmart, running a company like Tesla would be a fulltime job. But Musk runs also a rocket company and boring company and probably more. And he seems to think in his spare time he can change and/or buy Twitter. And yesterday he decided he should also stop the Ukraine war. Maybe he should relax a little and concentrate on what he has and otherwise shut up - at least in public.
  18. I will never try to get to the (cornering) limits of that the little Duke. It is far beyond what I would dare to do.
  19. I received a reply to my LINE message when they opened on Monday. Clear information of which tires they had and didn't have and what they recommend. I selected the recommended Bridgestone S21 and I paid 1000B in advance to make sure they don't sell it to anybody else. That was my idea, they didn't ask for down payment. I was there today and they replaced my two tires within 30 minutes. It looked like professional work to me. They also showed me the package of my new tires so that I can see they were produced in 2022. They even apologized that they didn't remove the glue from the old weights on the rims because according to them the KTM color does not play well with that removal fluid - fair enough. Summary: All perfect. I will go there again. Thanks for the recommendation.
  20. Thanks. I don't think her card has any angry bird picture or anything similar on the card. As far as I know it's just a standard boring K-Bank ATM card. And most of the time she deducts money at the K-Bank ATM and she was not used to that menu. She was confused what that is/was about.
  21. Was that really the idea? Or was it more likely that she wanted to say thank you to the Tory members who voted for her. And then, as an afterthought, had this: Now how can I sell this idea to all those poor stupid people?
  22. I am still surprised that she thought she would get away with that policy. Making rich people richer in a crisis. Is there anything better suitable to <deleted> off 90% of the nation? What kind of PM makes such decision without even thinking for 5 minutes if that might be a bad idea. Totally utterly useless!
