I am sure there is somewhere a fine print that the data is not accurate and should not be relied on for medical reasons. Some time ago I bought a blood pressure device. Before I did that, I looked at comparisons from test organizations. Some devices were not as good as other. I bought a good device, with app for records, to have accurate results recorded. IMHO anything else is just a gimmick. The O2 is always measured optically. I once read an article about it how that is done. It made sense. Sorry, no link.

Why Do Thai Girls Love Getting Tattoos?
OneMoreFarang replied to SoCal1990's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I am pretty sure they do it because everybody else in their peer group does it. Many new girls who start in that business don't want to be the new inexperienced girl who everybody recognizes as that. So that try to do what all the others do: Drink, smoke, tattoos, gamble, etc. And once they do that, they are part of that group, and then it becomes difficult to get away from that group, because with all those tattoos they are marked for life. Personally, I prefer the beginners without tattoos. But obviously there are not many of them.- 107 replies

Israeli Attacked in Thailand by German Tourist, Report Says
OneMoreFarang replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Ok, so how many terrorists did Israel soldiers and American bombs kill? And how many innocent people? And what is the future for the people who used to live in Gaza? If people have no future, then don't be surprised if the desperate do desperate things. -
Should he have done it? No. But then, seeing the orange guy taking over and doing favors left and right to all family members, friends and people who tell him he is the greatest, Biden probably asked himself why he shouldn't pardon his own son. Trump wouldn't ever think about a situation like that. He would just pardon and don't even recognize that there is a conflict of interest.

Israeli Attacked in Thailand by German Tourist, Report Says
OneMoreFarang replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
1. I don't like violence, anywhere from anybody, including above. 2. Some people see genocide as a major crime. So, when observers see people from other countries, who are at war and kill tens of thousands of people, then sometimes emotions heat up. I.e. one member here told us a couple of days ago that he rides around town and insults Russian people. Why? See above. I am sure if Israel wouldn't kill so many innocent people, then they would not have to warn their citizens to leave their own warmongering country. -
Think about all the US presidents which you can remember. When George W Bush was elected, many though he was worse than all the others. Until Trump was elected, he made Bush look like a statesman. If you really don't see the big difference between Trump and all the others, then I won't be able to help you.

For me it seems many Americans don't realize anymore how crazy Trump is compared to normal people. Somehow, I would be surprised if this is getting better anytime soon.

Who knows how the richest man on earth thinks? Let's not forget, if that 44 billion USD investment would go bankrupt, he would still be the richest man on earth. He would not feel any difference in his life. So how does he think? What does he want? I have no idea, and I am pretty sure most of us have no idea. Because our world is so far away from his world that we have few things in common.

Trump has a huge ego. He won't ask Musk for advice - at least most of the time. And Trump likes to shoot from the hip. I am sure he will f@# up many times. Luckily, I am not an American and I can watch this soap opera from far away.

American Exceptionalism: Reality or Just a Myth?
OneMoreFarang replied to SoCal1990's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
It's like asking a stupid person if he is stupid. I never met one who told me he is actually stupid. Same same, not much different to above.- 129 replies

It seems many guys marry the first Thai woman who agrees. And they might be happy with her, for a while. And then many of them discover that they could have married younger and prettier women, maybe even without kids. And then some of those guys realize that now it's too late. IMHO a guy like he describes himself should not marry a woman who is older than himself and no woman with kids - at least if that is not exactly what he wants. Most of us prefer young and pretty and no kids. That is nature. And there are enough of them in Thailand for almost all of us.

OneMoreFarang replied to BritManToo's topic in Western Food in Thailand
I seem to remember it's not really the perfect food. But then, when I was a kid, my parents didn't buy expensive food like Nutella. So, when I was a little older and could afford to buy it myself, I did exactly that. It tastes good! And that is important for me. All in all, I don't eat too much of it, so I am not really concerned. -
Sukhumvit Nightlife: Who’s Keeping It Alive?
OneMoreFarang replied to 123Stodg's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Yes, things were different at that time. No SkyTrain, no mobile phones, no social media, and 500B for sexy time. I think there are many factors, and they all work together. And obviously many other areas and many people also changed significantly. -
Help, i fancy my local pharmacist (F) !
OneMoreFarang replied to Aurelien's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I know that as a general rule, but it seems sometimes it works when you give her the opportunity. If she is interested in him, then she will know for sure he is also interested if he gives her his contact details. Even if she doesn't contact him, her behavior in the shop might change. I don't see a downside of trying above. -

OneMoreFarang replied to Aurelien's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Maybe look at her hands. Does she have a wedding ring? I have to say personally I never look at such little details, but I am sure sometimes it makes sense to look. I think the best approach is to give her a business card or a piece of paper with your name and LINE ID on it. If she is interested, then she might contact you. And if not, then you didn't embarrass her too much. Obviously, it also makes a big difference if she is alone in that shop or who else is around. Good luck! Only people who try have a chance to win. Go for it! -
Thai mother ignores after new husband sexually assaults daughter
OneMoreFarang replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Unfortunately, I am not surprised. It seems there are lots of mothers out there who see their daughter as assets which have to be rented or sold to the highest bidders. Next step would probably for the mother to send or sell the daughter into prostitution so that the mother will get rich. I don't know how normal this situation is in Thailand, but it is certainly far away from unnormal. And I am sure often neighbors, friends and others know and don't do anything. They don't want to get involved. And to be fair, I don't know what neighbors could achieve i.e. by going to the police. -
Bangkok Bank App Problem.
OneMoreFarang replied to Mason45's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I had problem with the K-Bank app. Sometimes it didn't work. I called their support and they told me I should switch off WLAN on my phone and use the internet connection from my phone company (in my case DTAC). I did that and it worked fine. Later I tried again with WLAN enabled. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. Until now it always worked when I used my phone internet connection. Maybe try that.
