  1. Which stupid Thai law is that? That also farangs have to follow the laws in Thailand - or else.
  2. That might be true. But do you know which kind of terrorists are much more active than Muslims in the USA? You could inform yourself, but probably you won't like the facts. Statistically speaking Muslims are s minor problem in the land of the free.
  3. It seems there is some communication going on. Maybe she should just ask him about his intentions. And if he has other intentions than she then maybe there are consequences. It's just like real life.
  4. I guess that is why so many people feel right at home in that place.
  5. A long time ago when Dusit Zoo was still open they had, maybe 10 years ago, a pit with crocodiles. The wall around it was maybe 120cm, not high. One day we decided to bring some food for the animals. Morning glory for the monkeys and raw meat for the crocodiles. Throwing the first piece of meat into that pit brought nearly no reaction at all. But then slowly they woke up. And after a few minutes they had their mouth wide open when the meat was still in the air on the way down to them. That was the moment when we decided we won't do that again. Too scary.
  6. There is another interesting thread about selfies...
  7. Some years ago, it seems everybody, except me of course, had one of those. And I thought: please, not more of this sh$#. And now I can't even remember when I saw last time one of these things. It seems sometimes humans realize that a trend is stupid, and they reverse it. There is hope.
  8. When I read the headline I though first: That's just around the corner from where I live. And then I remembered that this is word news and there is a bigger Time Square out there... ????
  9. This thing is obviously dogy. And if you "fix" that your test plug shows it correctly what did you actually "fix"? If someone switched the wires what can you expect from the rest of that thing? Will you trust that the USB electronic is properly isolated? I wouldn't. Dump it! Or to satisfy your senses open it, if necessary with a saw and look inside. And then dump it. Just in case if you need a reminder what could be wrong, watch this or any other of his USB charger videos.
  10. There is one which is as long as you want right next to the beach. ????
  11. I just watched the video and that is what I thought. If someone can't afford a nice place in Pattaya will he be able to afford one back home? And back home he certainly won't sit in front of the convenient store and drink beer. It's just way too cold in most of those home countries. Luckily, I can still afford a nice living standard. But if I wouldn't be able to afford it, then I don't think I would go "home". To do what? Dream about Thailand?
  12. Do you have any favorite music which you like to hear loud? Personally, I think there is lots of such music. Most of the time I don't hear it loud because I don't want to annoy the neighbors. But if I would have a house somewhere far away from anybody, I would definitely turn up the volume from time to time. This is one of those performances which can't really be played too loud:
  13. Thanks, that looks like an interesting shop, and I didn't know about it until now. But unfortunately, I find only cable markers, nothing for MCBs or terminals.
  14. It seems there is hope. ????
  15. I don't know if I am just getting old or this world is going more and more crazy. A long time ago I was driving together with my boss at that time in a BMW M5 and then an 850CSI. Both had over 300HP and a top speed of over 250. At that time I thought: Wow, who will ever want more than that? After that I moved to Thailand, and I don't care about cars anymore. And now? It seems nobody would buy a sports car anymore with only 300HP. I wonder where all those people need/use all that power?
  16. There will be stiff competition.
  17. Thanks, I will use some of those markers/labels for my terminal blocks. But I mentioned the MCBs because I am pretty sure there are more people here who know MCBs compared to terminal blocks. If possible I want similar markers on the terminal blocks and the MCBs.
  18. I have to admit I also like to hear some music loud. When I still lived in a country far away, I had a wonderful sound system in my car, and I could turn it up to the max. At home I behaved because of the neighbors. Now, when I am in one of my regular bars, and I had enough to drink, and they play my favorite music, then maybe I ask them to crank up the volume.
  19. What is it? "spacial needs" (headline) or "special needs" (text)
  20. That reminds me when one of my customers looked at my handwritten notes and asked me if I am able to read that. And I had to admit if I look at it again on the same day then probably I still remember what I wrote down. A few days later that possibility gets worse from day to day... Thanks for the tip. Worst case that is what I will do. But I would prefer something printed.
  21. And all this was well known before she was appointed to be a supreme court judge - for the rest of her life.
  22. I guess that is why many (most?) American politicians end their speeches with something like: "God bless America" In theory there should be a separation. But it seems in real life many of those bible thumpers would never even dream about voting for somebody who is not openly supporting Christianity.
  23. I want to label the MCBs in my breaker box. I find online something like in the picture - to be imported from China. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/zack-marker-strips-with-standard-numbering-with-blank-for-uk-and-st-and-pt-din-rail-terminal-blocks-zb4-zb5-zb6-zb8-zb10-10pcs-i4279013071.html Does anybody of you know where something like that is available in Thailand online or in a shop somewhere in Bangkok? Obviously I could print my own labels, but they should stick on the MCBs for many years and be readable. So something professionally made would definitely be a better idea. Where to buy them? And how are they called in Thailand (in Thai or English)?
  24. You could try it at a random time with a random movie and you will know in less than 5min. ????
  25. Isn't that one reason why she was selected for that position? It seems she is what many Americans want.
