he's talking about the mnemonic seed or seed phrase, seed recovery phrase or backup seed phrase

12 or 24 words that need to entered in the exact same order to recover your wallet

the ledger nano has a 8 or 10 digit password on it and also a secret one that you can set to access the "real" funds (if someone tries to force you to enter it)

as said above, if you give out 3 people a few words.. risk is they lose it, die or whatever. then it's gone and no one will recover anything

also, to do what you want to do you don't need a hardware wallet. you could just create a wallet with something like Electrum and just use the words

the ledger adds another layer of security with PINs but also plausible deniability

if it's set to read only then just copy the files to another folder.

if it's a Steam game you can right click, properties, click local files tab, move install folder.

not sure what you are trying to do. when i click stuff in Program Files (x86) and want to delete it asks me to confirm I want to do as admin and that's it.

Actually the police order regarding extensions says that it's one year from entering Thailand (for studying at non-formal schools that is, studying at a formal school doesn't have this limit). So if you entered Thailand in March 2020 and get an ED visa now, you could only stay until March 2021 at most (total stay in Thailand one year) and then you would have to leave.

But it looks like most immigration offices interpret it so that the year starts when you actually got the ED visa (which is imho not in compliance with the police order, and could potentially used by them to extort money, we have to see if this happens)

this, I had ED visa before and the first time the guy at immigration told me that they can do it for I believe 11k baht, which is a bunch of BS because the only receipt you will get is for the 2000 baht it SHOULD cost

anyways, for me to go to Laos 1-2 days to apply for it was a pain so i just paid the 11k and then got the visa but at the last extension they told me "nope, you can only stay maximum of 1 year in Thailand" which included the 2-3 months I was already on a tourist visa

so instead of being forced to exit to get the visa I was forced to exit to renew it, very last minute little trip to Malaysia for like 30 minutes.

Next act like this and I help her doing her luggage and escorting her to the lobby.

first time my ex girlfriend had a fit and was shouting, crying and throwing things around I just waited until she was done..

then I told her to pack her stuff because she would be on the first minivan out next morning.

she spent most of the night crying and begging, i didn't budge. sent her early the next day.

long story short, her dummy friends told her to "find someone else to forget him" and that tourist dude got her pregnant one week after meeting.

oh well.

not exactly hard but takes an hour (or two depending if its busy or not.)

blabla paperwork, stamp this, need copies of this and that.. buy 8 stamps at this counter, copies passport, blabla

never needed work permit from foreigners just the residence certificate (if it was done properly)

they check your VIN or whatever number, you pay a small amount and then they tell you to come a few days later..

then you come back, take off the plate from bike and they give you new one.

I never had a work permit so what would they say about my residence certificate?

if i'm not mistaken.. all you need is the certificate, a signed copy of their passport, the power of attorney form pre-signed and the book for the bike

might be a little off as i haven't bought from a foreigner in a while but as far as i know the paperwork is the same from a thai except its their thai ID that is copied/signed. (and no residence certificate)

now certainly if there is another address that is not the same as the residence certificate (like on the forms or whatever) then they will give you a hard time but like previous person said, don't even show them the work permit..

I believe the work permit can be used INSTEAD of certificate of residence (if it has all the information which apparently doesn't).

Negative Outlook

Disapproves of CEO

I worked at deVere Group

Pros

High profit rewards for scamming customers on international long term saving plans with high undeclared fees and high undeclared surrender values.

Cons

Devere Group and Nigel Green basically run a global boiler room operation on a massive scale. Fact is most clients loose the majority of their investment because the company forces its staff to withhold key information about the products they SELL. Devere are not financial advisors. They are just the middle man selling very very expensive insurance products on behalf of large international firms such as Zurich Life but dress this up as some fancy expat investment product.

yeah I saw that earlier too.

full blown scammers, trying to get me to go on a meeting with them at hua hin regarging "investments" with them a few years back

after they were given phone number AND names from someone with grabby hands access inside hua hin immigration

jokes on them, i don't have any money and not a knob.

Sorry mate, but I personally I like small breasted women (my wife is) - the thought of being with a large breasted woman that in old age will have to tuck them in her underwear is a right put off

you are not wrong, I know a lady who is around 45 years old and in a bra she looked fine. however, one day I found out that I prefer her in a bra

when she took it off, they fell to roughly belly button level which is a good 15cm (to 20 cm) lower than I prefer

in fact, now that i spent like 20 seconds thinking about it.

I'm middle aged and fit, I go for fit/thin women and I reckon that usually the one single thing I would think might be disappointing is the top situation (mostly not size but shape) as the rest on fit women is usually stellar

it is what it is.

Amazon has no issues sending stuff, the prices for shipping are a little bit more expensive than they used to be pre-covid but there is one main difference

I bought several things from Amazon in the past and normally if the value was under 1500 baht with shipping there were no Thai import taxes or duties but since they shut it down (international shipping was down for a bit and then put back)

it is not the case anymore, now every single little thing comes with a tax+duty charge, I even contacted support and asked about it they acted like it was normal even when i showed them the customs site

it's not all that much and not a major problem if you don't order a lot of things but it adds up quite quickly and shouldn't even be there.

I bought this before for $27.58 and now the same thing costs $40.29

I would leave, do your best regarding the kids but you shouldn't be in an unhappy relationship just because of kids, they pick up on that and you usually end up ruining their life and views of relationships too.

I got a vasectomy a few years ago cause my son is going on 20 years old and I didn't want to deal with this kind of stuff and more responsibilities.

I met a few girls who flat out won't date me if I tell them that I can't have kids but the fact is that even if I could, I wouldn't.

I always told myself one thing, if me or the girlfriend is not happy.. it's time for one of us to leave and I have no problem being the person to leave.

I would rather leave and have my girlfriend happy with someone else than unhappy with me.

I'm assuming that you were unable to do online reporting simply because it has been disabled during the amnesty period.  My own report was due about one week AFTER amnesty started.  I was unaware of the amnesty and I tried to renew my 90 day report online (in the specified 7-15 days prior to expiration) and got that same message as you did.  The error message you get if you are outside of the 7-15 day period is different.

 

At least I hope that is the case because IF reporting is required on July 31, doing it online (7-15 days prior to that date is what I would want to do, rather than having to do it in person with what is sure to be a HUGE crowd.

 

In other words, I'm hoping that online reporting will not be disabled for the July 31 date (assuming amnesty is not extended) because all of our present reports have technically expired (even though amnesty is the reason).  Anybody have any thoughts on this?

nah it never worked on all the browsers I tried, the app never worked (same error) and my information is quite straightforward to enter.

asking them at the desk doesn't make sense because #1 they shrug and just want to process it and #2 it's past the window you can use it usually when I go (to not change the dates earlier)

to get them to try, I would have to go between 15 and 7 days before my 90 days is needed with a Thai person and that would leave #1, + I am sure they don't even know how to "fix" it even if they confirm it doesn't work by trying

can't be bothered to be honest, it's usually quick but still a 20 minutes drive and a few minutes in office. wish internet reporting worked but for me it doesn't

Over the years, I've tried a few different tablets, powders, injections and sprays to try to keep my dogs tick-free, with varying degrees of success. I am currently using a powder, sold in sachets and is supposed to keep a dog up to 15Kg free of ticks, fleas, various mites & heart worms for 1 month. My dogs are larger than 15Kg, so I administer one sachet to each dog every fortnight and they are relatively tick-free. NB It should not be used on collies, old English sheepdogs or Shetland sheepdogs (stated on sachet). Costs 40 baht per sachet at local shop.

If it says not to use on collies it's probably Ivermectin.. not sure the dosage of what you have but it doesn't seem to be on the side that you showed.

hope this is cheap as heck because you can get around 2008 Suzuki Carry on Facebook under 100k (there are a few) and they look 10x better than this

+ as far as i know the box is the same size

if you can't find your size you can look on Lazada, Shopee etc.

those ones look nice and very basic, however they have XL size which is normal foreigner size as far as i know

If you can calculate how much drinking/cooking water you have and you find it falls under 8 liters then you'd probably want something like the one i linked before

I bought 2 extra filters so technically I am good for 3 years, at the time it cost me 8100 baht total I believe

I am pretty sure the 3 (or more) undersink filters ones do a better job but replacing the filters was my main concern.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were put in "permanently"

here I have the same system and one of the two window for some reason looks impossible to remove (right side) , not unlike yours.. it just doesn't go high enough compared to the left one

and they put the mosquito screen on the inside of the room which is baffling to me..

when it rains heavily, Ialways have to open the screen, close the window, close the screen (or leave it open I guess) and then redo same thing

well, mine is due for July 12th, I did go in last time cause I needed a certificate of residence  to transfer a motorbike to me but not really that interested in driving there if it's not needed until July 31st

I just  tried to do mine online and I am within the 7 days period but keep getting this error message (always the same)

contacting them about it does absolutely nothing, they just want to process it in 2 minutes and be done with, they don't care about fixing it and I would have to go now to them and get THEM to try it online but I am sure that is useless to even try

but yes, for me.. waiting is better for the following reason:

I have 1 year extensions from November 27th and you would think 3 90 days report would bring me to next extension but far from it.

If I did my report today it would bring my next 90 days report to the 30th of September which means it forces a 4th 90 days report for 1.5 month

wouldn't be bothered by it if online worked but it never did for me

I own the 3M Counter Top water purifier

this one:

https://www.lazada.co.th/products/3m-counter-top-i100220924-s100262309.html?spm=a2o4m.searchlist.list.13.f1a76ff06V0jws&search=1

and it works pretty well but it's slow for me because I have very low water pressure. the filter included is good for 3000 liters (or roughly one year)

I only use mine for drinking, cooking and water for my dogs and it's pretty good but I haven't had the water tested.. I just know it was bad before.

when I was looking into water purification my first choice was one of those below sink ones with 3+ filters but I had always seen the systems and not the replacement filters and this made me not buy them (not saying they don't exist)

3M has a similar setup with under sink i believe and they had a little secondary faucet you could magnet or glue near the first one.. probably a cleaner install

I was tempted to get both the 3 filter things from another company and the 3M one above but so far for my usage it's enough..

I couldn't tell you if the flow is good or not with main floor or proper water pressure cause i never tried it other places than my weak pressure 4th story place

but it should be okay.

can have a go at this site

quite advanced really

you obviously ordered the wrong thing

you ordered "jake + coke" and it is 200 baht but "jack deniel's cola" was 150

No difference, I did then say that according to posts here, he needed to go in to Registry and make some changes there ( I had tried myself but failed ) Then again I am no computer technician.

He did so and eventually re established connection.

I had to ask how long he had been fixing/working on computers to which he replied 10 years but had never used WIN 10.

 

Not really impressed, with his service, perhaps I am being harsh.

 

Problem solved for now and at least I have learned a little.

 

Thanks again

not sure who said anything about registry (much more advanced stuff) but hey.

certainly if he's been in the business for "10 years" he would know Windows 10 like the back of his hand.

it's 5 years old by now and I've had it installed from day one on all of my computers.

I'd suggest you try someone else than this dunce if you have other issues. certainly not that harsh

I have an account with Bangkok Bank and Kasikorn, neither required a work permit (I never had a work permit)

for Bangkok Bank at least (and maybe others), you can have a Thai national vouch for you,

all I had was my passport and my friend who signed some paperwork and they copied her ID

Kasikorn, same deal but the paperwork was sent to me via Thai Elite (it was a thing they offered to help with), the only difference in that one was that I needed to do a 20,000 baht deposit which I wasn't told about and didn't have cash on me.

made me return once I had the money, I just called my friend, got her to transfer into my BKK bank, cashed it out, brought it to Kasikorn, made account, took the 20,000 baht and then transferred the money back to my friend 15 minutes later

without the 20,000? hard no. they wouldn't budge. so a bit of red tape but otherwise not really difficult.
