  1. Yup, a UPS is the animal in question. Do be aware that most of them only last long enough for you to save your work if the power is actually out rather than just a blip. If you want to continue working for hours then you're going to need a generator as well. What's your actual requirement?
  2. I'm sorry, but I really can't see the point, maybe someone can enlighten this old duffer ???? Google gives better (like accurate) answers to factual questions. I can have meaningful interactions with actual humans.
  3. Let's shuffle this over to the Pets forum.
  4. Asimov had it in 1953! "... someday someone will telephone the planet Earth and get the answer, 'Honest, boss, there's nobody here anywhere but us complicated thinking machines!' " https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobody_Here_But— Read the whole short story here: - https://www.novelforfree.com/the-complete-stories_chapter_nobody-here-but_45493_4530.html
  5. As our OP has his answer and the bickering has started.
  6. I'm not sure quite what, but something isn't quite right with this cover I admit it, I do rather like these guys (and gal) take on hit tracks ????
  7. Brits of a "certain age" only ...
  8. This is the PEA calculator, it's not perfect but ...
  9. You need to use a lot more off-peak (and correspondingly less on-peak) to get to the break-even point. If you can get a separate TOU meter just for the car and only charge at night you get the best of both worlds. PEA were certainly offering this in the past.
  10. I doubt I could remember from my first class but certainly my first school (and classes did tend to stay together): - Barry Statter Elis Moore Pamela Wilson (got a rubber stuck in her ear) Michael Shirkie Mark Bridges Kevin Hall Carol (something). I've got faces in my mind but can't put names to them. Must be getting old ???? Hmmm, that's not many and I don't remember any teacher's names!
  11. Yup, ALL my kids!!
  12. Me too, and throwing my (glass) bottle out in a tantrum whereupon it was run over by a bus!! (No.12 my mum tells me).
  13. A doctor in Dublin wanted to get off work and go fishing, so he approached his assistant . "Murphy, I am going fishing tomorrow and don't want to close the clinic. I want you to take care of the clinic and take care of all me patients". Yes, sir!" answers Murphy. The doctor goes fishing and returns the following day and asks: "So, Murphy, how was your day?" Murphy told him that he took care of three patients. "The first one had a headache so he did, I gave him Paracetamol." "Bravo Murphy lad, and the second one?" asks the doctor. "The second one had indigestion and I gave him Gaviscon, so I did sir" says Murphy. "Bravo, bravo! You're good at this and what about the third one?" asks the doctor. "Sir, I was sitting here and suddenly the door flies open and a young gorgeous woman bursts in so she does. Like a bolt outta the blue, she tears off her clothes, taking off everything including her bra and her knickers and lies down on the table, and shouts: 'HELP ME for the love of St Patrick! For five years I have not seen any man!'" "Thunderin' lard Jesus Murphy, what did you do?" asks the doctor "I put drops in her eyes."
  14. Probably not, but he is supposed to send a copy of your passport details to immigration who will know what sort of permission you are on. Whether they would ever make the connection and come a-looking is unknown.
  15. Typical Thai logic I'm afraid Have you tried going to your mobile service provider with ID and telling them the SIM is lost, they should (might) be able to supply a new SIM with the old phone number ????
  16. My Uncle Phil (mum's brother) now sadly long departed was an avid slot-car man. Small Scalextric size stuff in his garage, 4 lane DIY track from hardboard and foil strips. In summer we raced 1/24 (or something like that) cars on an outdoor track, faster and more spectacular on (OK, coming off at) the corners.
  17. It's actually ideal. The "instant gratification" was aimed at getting it "instantly".
  18. Bingo. Give the man a prize ???? https://www.lazada.co.th/products/loctite-495-401-406-ca-20-g-super-bonder-instant-adhesive-loctite495-loctite401-loctite406-tss-i304242164-s14161550130.html
  19. Yeah ^^^, I was hoping for instant gratification ????
  20. The application requires a low-viscosity adhesive (so it will wick into the joint) that cures rapidly (glued area is quite large but the bond thickness is very small) whilst allowing a little "adjustment" time. The regular one-part cyano is just a little too quick, I need 10-20 seconds of wriggle time before it grabs.
  21. Not a problem, thread moved ???? The forum itself is here: - https://aseannow.com/forum/319-alternativerenewable-energy-forum/
  22. https://aseannow.com/forum/319-alternativerenewable-energy-forum/
  23. This will probably do better over in Alternative Energy, let's move it and see what occurs.
  24. The problem is I don't have the "slow" cyano, the stuff I have is the "instant" variety. Now if someone has a link to a local source of the slow stuff ...
