Been living on the darkside for 15 years, never been pulled over, or hit a roadblock in all that time. Police presence is minimal at best.

I have a Lenovo AIO that I bought new from Lazada 7 years ago which has been trouble free, however the monitor is starting to lose pixels and I have a line at the top of the screen where any text is now unreadable. Think it's time for an upgrade.

Is there a mini PC (with Win 11) that has similar (or better) specs under 12,000 baht? That allows for another 5000 baht to spend on a monitor to keep the price roughly the same, ie 16-17000 baht.

Price is 16,000 baht or $467 US. I'd be happy for you to point out anything with better specs for a similar price, like I said just for home use no gaming.

Double post.

Isn't there a limit to the generosity of GoFundMe donors? Surely people must be getting sick of these cries for help for people who were too stupid to take responsibility for their own welfare. I assume that these beggars are not only from Thailand but also from the other many holiday resorts around the world. Is GoFundMe a bottomless pit?

Thanks, they just look like a superluous add-on that does nothing to enhance the appearance IMO.

It would be like putting a spoiler on a Morris Minor.

It's a low powered family saloon not an F1 racing car. Pretty sure they have some other purpose, but waiting for someone who actually owns one to respond.

Not my car, just curious.

Do these plastic "paddles" front and rear of the Yaris serve any purpose other than just design?

I hate Aussie customs with a vengeance, they spend hours turning people over, including body searches, and find nothing. Meantime there's ketamine and amphetamines coming in by the container load. They're a joke.

Only last a couple of wears.

But not in this case. Episode 2 appears to be actually that, episode 1 is not available that I can see.

Nope, I'm wrong, episode 1 is missing. Strange that 2 and 3 are available and not 1.

I think what is listed as episode 2 is actually 1, maybe 1 and 2 together.

Presence. Not usually into these kind of movies, but found this to be very entertaining, well acted and beautifully shot. The director is Steven Soderbergh who did Sex, Lies and Videotape as well as Traffic. https://www.imdb.com/video/vi3913140505/?playlistId=tt28249919&ref_=tt_ov_ov_vi

First time I used a lawyer who charged 500 baht, but last time I went to the local police station and got them to sign and stamp it for free.

They are less than a 100 baht from Lazada so I've ordered one. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/i5557223485-s23641469942.html?urlFlag=true&mp=1

I always worry if I'm using something like that for the first time it's going to get caught on a bend or something and end up creating an even bigger problem.

Episodes 2 and 3 are available on PB but not episode 1. Any idea where I can find it?

Toilet has become clogged and flushing is very slow. Live in a house (dark side of Pattaya) with septic tanks and just had the tanks emptied this morning because of the slow flushing, but it hasn't fixed the problem. The toilet is only a couple of metres away from the tank so it shouldn't be too difficult to clear for a "plumber" or a handyman with the drain snake. Anyone know of one?

In Pattaya any mail from Australia can arrive months after being posted, or not at all. This can create problems if it's something like a Proof of Life form from Centrelink that asks for the form to be returned before you've even received it, resulting in pension being terminated.

Seems you didn't actually know what you'd bought.
