The expression is Caveat emptor.

Probably. The area leading up to the pier is downhill as well.

Yeah, because if there's one thing that really gets foodies going, it's sustainability.

Good thing that the driver in the sedan was alright.

Very good, indeed. One can only hope that this will be a turning-point for the country, where the old dinosaurs from all sides are tossed out and a new generation with higher morals takes over. Wishful thinking, but let's hope.

Yeah, and why eat at restaurants when you can eat at home? And why stay at hotels when you can sleep at home? And why take the bus when you can just drive yourself? And why have the kids in a nursery school when you can take care of them yourself? And why go to a doctor when you can just Google the symptoms and self-medicate?

No, it's a summary. The sources are listed at the bottom of the article.

Good luck with that. They'll plant as much as they can and then complain when it doesn't work out, demanding that the government bail them out, as usual.

I sincerely doubt he was evicted for no reason.

If she can afford to buy cannabis she can afford to take care of herself.

Have the conditions this guy's dad is claiming actually been verified or are people just assuming that they're true? In the original article linked in the OP, it also says that he had to sleep in his underwear, not naked. Neither does it mention him being denied his medication, just that it was taken off of him, which sounds quite reasonable when you're incarcerated. Not saying that what they're saying isn't true, but it seems people are accepting it as fact even though it's just second-hand information from this guy's father.

Ubon. Can't remember if I did any 90 day reports online before that, but at least Ubon.

I've never entered Thailand on my current passport and it works just fine.

So much more effort and more expensive than just spending 1 minute doing it online.

Too bad the mob didn't get a hold of him. Some street justice would have served him right.

I'm "going off on a tangent" because I point out what these optimizers actually do and recommend stuff that will actually make a difference? Removing junk files and having up-to-date drivers is obviously good, but it's not gonna make a slow computer faster, despite what the developers of these softwares claim. At worst, they'll mess around with the Windows registry and actually cause issues rather than solving them.

What is this basic stuff and why does it make the computer run faster?

The problem is that the "easy stuff" doesn't really do anything to make a slow computer faster. As I wrote, at most they'll improve the boot time and free up a bit of disk space.

"Optimizers" are generally bogus and won't do much besides removing a few MB's of junk files and perhaps make the computer boot faster by disabling some programs that usually start together with Windows (which you can easily do yourself by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Esc, going to the "Startup Apps" tab and disabling software you don't need to start immediately when the computer starts). If you really want it to run faster, take it to a computer shop and let them change the hard disk drive (if your computer has one) to an SSD, and perhaps install additional RAM.

In one breath he makes veiled nuclear threats, in the next, he whines about russophobia. What an absolute clown.

What an immense loss for the expat community in Thailand. A truly great guy with so much knowledge and willingness to share it. He will be greatly missed.

Me thinks there's more to this story than your friend is letting on.

Your friend is talking rubbish. Immigration has no authority or access to freeze anyone's account and the bank certainly don't have any reason to in regard to immigration matters.

Plenty of them will if the minimum salary is raised to 712 baht. Either that or shut down.

Absolutely, and then watch half of all Thai companies go bankrupt or move elsewhere in a few months, leaving millions without jobs.
