  1. They are lucky they have not been attacked in that time....it would be something, being attacked without possessing submarines, then you have lost the war in advance.
  2. The experience I had with Opera recently was that they offered VPN for payment, there would also be a free version but with that I was told, if I wanted to have a connection in Europe, it was not available. But it must be cheating, because on my old computer with an older version of Opera, it worked.
  3. In fairness, I must add the following past: It did have a follow-up after all, ‘Namecheap’ was only concerned with payment verification, which consisted of a letter code that would appear on my payment statement when I made the payment to them. After giving that, I had full access to the VPN, so yes...things can change.
  4. Despite being an Apple user, I have had bad experience with that brand's mice. Had and tried many brands but for me now, after a long time, the ‘Satechi’ is the best.
  5. Indeed, believe it or not am planning to buy a Labrador or Golden retriever puppy, but so definitely don't go looking in Bangkok, you never know.
  6. You already give the answer yourself which shows, the comment is not that strange, simple, you do NOT go on the water with the monsoon season here and you know the weather can turn in 5 minutes in disaster.
  7. Not only that, it is the indifference of the Thai people, the ‘Mai Pen Rai’ mentality. The very first time I came to Thailand, that was also with a group on holiday, we were also crammed into a small boat and sailed into Pang Nga Bay, even then there was a big storm, fortunately nothing happened, but this does indicate how easily people think about seemingly non-dangerous situations can be or become very dangerous.

  8. Unfortunately, after my experience yesterday, or rather today, I have to agree with you on this. What turns out, because of the price and small risk $1/month, I took out a 1-year subscription with ‘Namecheap’ yesterday, fine, everything worked yesterday. What turns out today, they have blocked the subscription with the reason that they need more information and will block the connection until then. What the <deleted>! They won't get them, have asked for a refund, which I don't expect back. Then just suffer a $12 loss. But a good lesson for others.
  9. I'm due to get a VPN, but after reading all the posts about it today, the choice isn't getting any easier. One says FastVPN, another says Private VPN is the best, another says Surfshark... Should I wait any longer for another best VPN provider?
  10. You should be aware, if you have reported it missing to the police, and should you later find it, you will NOT be able to use it again.
  11. Well count on china also biding its time, so whether we are that safe here is also in doubt.
  12. !0 times the Thai price, but then you have something....NOT.
  13. I use it for long time but as far as I know, it is not free anymore, for that reason I remove Opera.
  14. If you see those heads too, I can go a long way with you.
  15. So in future, if I get fined for an offence and I can pay it off, I have to take a photo.
  16. Yes, I thought so too, but it did go wrong once, you have been warned.
  17. Also experienced it once when I was single and living on Phuket. Met a nice apparition, had a beer and then took ‘it' to my apartment. But ‘it’ felt ‘wetness’ and told ‘it’ couldn't do anything about my desires. Whether I wanted to take ‘it’ back to Kathu. Just did it but an experience never to forget.
  18. They are all the same, it happened to me last week when delivering a parcel from China. Flash Express was the one to deliver it but it was dismissed with the excuse that they couldn't find the address, someone had to pick it up themselves in Tha Yang. By the way, my Thai girlfriend's phone number was on the parcel!
  19. Nasty that the driver tried to get away, and won't condone it, but we can hope as a foreigner not to be involved in a fatal accident in this country.
  20. 'although I am wondering how young boys can afford a BMW or even a Mercedes or other big cars...They don't have a normal job' Let me guess, perhaps you could ask the same question regarding the country you come from.
  21. This is a good endeavour, recently I left from Schiphol airport to here, what an annoyance there as opposed to Suvarnabhumi. Had boarded via intenet and only had to drop off my luggage, for which I had to queue for almost 2 hours. If you depart from Suvarnabhumi and have checked in via the internet, you can drop off your luggage in 5 minutes, which is a whole lot more comfortable.
  22. About Teflon, used not only foul odour or smell but also PFAS.
  23. Maybe it is already too late but be warned about sending a copy of your passport. To be on the safe side, I would write ‘Copy’ on it in red.
  24. Perhaps they were released on purpose. Who will know.
  25. It is more what was there before, the chicken or the egg, as long as the police are corruptible nothing will change. We all know that even when an offence takes place and a police officer passes at that moment, nothing happens. upfront, I 100% agree with you that driving/traffic training sucks and therefore believe that something needs to be done on both sides but in the 25-plus years I've been here, I haven't seen much change happen.
