Unfortunately "you honked your horn" is motive enough for some people.

Probably no survivors. ???? IMHO bicycling in Thailand is even more dangerous than riding motorcycle. If you can avoid it don't do it.

I recently looked at kitchen appliances. It's impossible to look at the electronic from outside and other technical details. What I did in shops is that I pressed some buttons and move some dials and things like that. On many devices it just feels cheap, and it feels like it will be damaged after some use. At the end I bought all from Electrolux. They seem to be relatively good quality for reasonable prices. For the hood I also made sure I switch it on and listen to it. Some of them are very loud. I still have to install what I bought and have no user experience up to now. I also looked at this AU website and subscribed. They tested some devices which are available in AU and TH and some general articles about different devices. https://www.choice.com.au/

At least for me a couple of million THB is real money. And if I wouldn't be able to live in the place which I bought and would have to pay for another place to live in that would be more than annoying. The idea of insurances is obviously to spread the risk (and for the insurance to make money). There won't be too many places which can't be used anymore because a fire somewhere in the building. But I am sure there are a couple of them with lots of unhappy owners. I remember a place (not sure if condominium or apartment house) which had what seemed like a relatively small fire at the top of the building. And then I saw lots of people from that building with lots of suitcases moving out. And then I think the building wasn't occupied for years. I didn't look at any details at that time.

Let's not forget that all those politicians were democratically elected by many, I guess mostly millions, of Americans. It shows us again how many crazy Americans are out there to vote for such people.

I wanted to close it. But there was no X because there was another window, a Banggood ad. And when I closed that Banggood ad there was another window under that which I couldn't close. I also couldn't close the mostly black windows on the right (see above screenshot). I work with computers all day and night and I "fixed" it. But I think it is the responsibility of this forum owner to think about what they are doing and the user experience. Asean Now has by far the most advertisement of any website which I regularly use. They could make it more user friendly if they would want to do that - and spend the money for a decent web developer.

Maybe send an email to Jotun and ask them. Sometimes I am surprised how fast and competent some companies answer.

Dear Asean Now please think again how many ads and other windows you want to show us. I just had to open a couple of new instances of this forum to be able to continue at all. If I have to close advertisement windows one by one in a specific order to be able to close other windows, then it's just too much! And I work on a relatively big desktop screen. How awful will this look on a smaller screen?

Did you have a working toilet when Somchai last used it? Just asking. ????

I thought she did a job, and she did a good job in that movie. Is it part of the deal to be comfortable? Is making a couple of million dollars not enough? 30 years later...

Which insurances are required and/or make sense as the owner of a condominium unit? I think some things are covered by the building and others not. Here are some samples of what I think could happen. What is covered by the building or what could be covered by private insurance? Fire a) There is a fire somewhere in the building, maybe in a lower floor and my unit is not accessible/usable. b) Like a) but my unit (or things in it) was also damaged by the fire. c) Like b) except the fire started in my unit (maybe an accident in the kitchen) Flooding Similar to fire Burglary Someone breaks in through my front door. Or maybe one of the building window cleaners enters my unit from outside And what is covered by a possible insurance? Let's say there was a fire in the building, and I can't live there for a year. Can I rent another place in a similar location similar size and the building insurance pays for that? Which insurance do you have and how much do you pay?

Someone ignored the fine-print and things didn't go as he imagined. What a surprise. Or maybe not?

Same with me. Soon after I arrived in Sukhumvit they started building the Skytrain. ????

Probably the place in Khao San Road increased the prices because of him. ????

This expat is obviously concentrating on the for him important things in his life. I didn't bother to go to Dan's website to read more of the same. Also about the parking in the middle of the road: It might be funny from time to time, but I wouldn't brag about it.

@Crossy would you buy something like that from AliExpress? Or maybe: Would you buy it from any shop on that site or only from selected shops? Obviously we all don't want to spend more money than necessary and the supplier which I mentioned is probably 5 times as expensive. But then, with a 100A fuse, the most important thing is that it actually works and not that it is cheap. What is your opinion about where you buy things like that?

This supplier has almost everything electrical - for a price. Fuses | Cartridge Fuses | Car Fuses | RS (rs-online.com)

The sad part is obviously that lots of people voted for those nutters...

It seems pretty obvious that if he gives the radicals enough that then they will vote for him. The question is how much is enough for those radicals? And according to some articles live will be very difficult for ordinary GOP politicians if they have to please the radicals constantly for the next years. We will see.

It's always interesting when Thai police is very active to solve a crime or when they just pretend to be active or when they drag their feet.

I recently saw this 4h interview with an insider. Interesting!

6,574,590 THB or 6.57 million or 6,574,590 million? I am surprised that there is enough space to show that number at all. It seems the developer made his homework and tested it with large numbers. ????

Some time ago I read that most people don't become more conservative when they get older. The "problem" is that people around them, especially all the younger people, are often more liberal or woke or whatever the opposite of conservative is these days. I.e. when I was young, I didn't like gay marriage and basically nobody liked it and that was considered normal at that time. Only radicals wanted to allow same sex marriage and adoption. Today it seems anybody who is not a fan of gay marriage and adoption is best case a conservative or more likely called a bigot.

I never heard that - but then, maybe I was just too drunk. But seriously, I don't think that is restricted to Thai bars or nightlife business. Go to any place where people regularly drink at night anywhere in this world and stay sober and it gets worse the longer the evening is.

You are probably just too old for this $#%#. ????
