Why not just put all the critical folders and files into a cloud storage that does not replicate to your computer and that you can protect with a strong password? 

Too much make-up and photoshop between them and me to judge...

First if all, you have to register your new address with a TM30, has nothing to do with the yellow book, and yes, your new landlord (if you are renting) should actually do this for you OR at least provide you with all info and docs (i.e. copy of his Thai ID) that you need to complete the address registration.

Second: The yellow book does NOT move with you! The yellow book belongs to the house, there is no "address change in the yellow book". If you want to be put in a yellow book in your new place, the owner of the house (see blue book) must agree with that and help you with this process also.
Most owners in rental places will not agree with getting a yellow book and put foreigners in there, I only ever heard about foreigners having a yellow book, if they own the property (as do I).

E-cigarettes are illegal in Thailand

Perhaps stand a better chance of getting an OEM battery at the Samsung Service Centre.....

Why an OEM battery? You won't get more than 3 months warranty anyway, and the non-OEM batteries will last another 2-3 years, until a phone change will be unavoidable anyway 

Of course, the Samsung shop can do it. As can ALL the phone repair shops in Tukcom, they will need 40-50 mins and do it cheaper. With an old phone, you anyway don't worry about warranty 

And yes, SIM and SD cards should be removed before 

Step tracker & Pedometer on Google play work like a charm for me

Welcome to the fun world of Cheap Charlie travel ????

That is 100% dependant on the seller. Private sellers will most certainly NOT accept any cards, as they don't have a contract with a credit card company. Companies might accept cards, but might charge a fee for that, because their bank charges them a fee as well for the processing.

Fast track only provides smaller (faster) queues, not faster processing by IOs. If they feel like hassling  you, they will.

Only goal is having a happy life with my family. For that, the only thing I had to give up is sex with strangers...

Are you joking?

When they began  vaccinating Thais in 2021, at many locations foreigners were refused a jab. Many were desperately looking to get a vaccine and didn't get one. Quite a few foreigners flew to other countries to get vaccinated. 

Your post adds insult to injury.

 

You are right of course, specifically if you didn't want Chinese poison... I traveled to ???????? for my shots.

What I would however like to know is which vaccines will be available for boosters... 

TM 7 is the only form you download and fill out, before you go to immigration, I never had issues in Jomtien (marriage extension). Only thing was that 3 years ago, they told me yhat I must fill both forms manually and sign them as originals, copies were not accepted. 

The only forms from the IO are the overstay and not working information forms, which you need to fill out and sign in front of her/him.

My last two tries to book a BKK hotel (4/5*) was unsuccessful. Both times, booking.com on desktop AND mobile told me numerous times "can not fulfill request, can not contact site, please try again in few minutes.". 
Not sure what the issue is, so just asking if somebody else has issues with the site, maybe just for BKK hotels? Both times, the direct booking through the hotel website was not only successful, but in fact few baht cheaper then through booking.com, but of course the inconvenience of having to enter all my details again.

Yes. That is exactly what I did in August last year, made the correct 90d report in October without any issues, received a new 90d warning for the October report end of December 

Samsung A53 5G is the best option, can be had below 15K, will last another 5 years. I personally use it

Not when it snakes out on to the soi.

Don't go Monday mornings, Friday afternoons or days after long holidays... I have never in all my years in Jomtien had a queue out into the soi

Don't know about the online system, never used it, but the queue area outside is covered by a tent, so no waiting in direct sunshine 

I think that most people don't really want to think about you running around in your house naked or with a towel only... 

@justsignedin:  Your post is somewhat confusing. You write that you need to RECEIVE USD, but then you write about the payee and not the payer... I assume you mean the person who will pay you, since later you write that you don't know where he is located.

Here is the thing: Wise has a list of countries, from which you can NOT receive USD to your wise account

No mistake. Retirement extensions didn't previously require photocopies of the 'Receipt(s) Of Notification of Change of Address'. They do now as I found out in October this year.

OP wrote about "xopies of previous extensions and bankbook pages"  those were ALWAYS required.
