The landscape now boasts an abundance of tens of thousands of cannabis outlets, with industry projections soaring to a monumental $1.2 billion valuation by the upcoming fiscal year.

In my normal daily routines, I pass many of these outlets. Rarely do I see any customers at all, at any time of day or night.

I fail to see how there can be any return on investment, at the prices hawked, or at any price.

Am I the only one on this forum who finds following Thai names and nicknames so bewildering that the thread of the story is completely lost?

Then again, maybe that is why they use complicated names and absurdly simple and untraceable nicknames.......

Like all aviation "incidents" in LOS, it was definitely "Pilot Error". What else could it possibly be........

When it is cheaper to hire a car for a day than it is to get a taxi ride, no wonder there are traffic jams.

When it is easier to use gps to navigate than to find a public transport route, no wonder people drive themselves.

I reckon you had some visitors when you was away. 

Any furniture out of place or food or drinks consumed? 

 

 

Maybe an inside job, other family members or friends that knew you'd be away. 

 

Not really possible to tap these electric meters, Its easy to see if the meter is being tapped. 

 

Tapping the meter may be difficult, if it is not to be seen. Tapping the load side wire is probably easy, and given the usual birds-nest cabling, hard to spot.

Nothing to do with bum guns you typical farnunds talk about 

What's a "farnund"...?

Oh! You mean a bum gun!  I didn't understand "washlet"!

The URL of a website ( satellite ) showing hotspots would be appreciated .  A site in English that one can navigate in preference to one in Thai.

try this:- https://www.earthdata.nasa.gov/learn/find-data/near-real-time/firms/active-fire-data

Also Windy and Ventusky apps, but fires are a premium (i.e. paid for) feature.

I have been doing non-o extensions for self and swmbo at Jomtien for 17years.

I have never been asked for a map, or had black ink signatures rejected.

My next is due soon....... has something changed???

I see two coffin nails. One  more for Boeing, one more for TG.

Does the pump actually kick in or you notice water isnt coming out of tap?

If pump isnt kicking in, then it would be the pressure switch. You open tap, pressure drops and pump should kick in.

IF pump is kicking in, but no water, then air in system could be the trouble. Too less water in feed of pump.

 

Toilet is just a tiny valve, so seems thats is working, low flow. Tap open is already too big and pump doesnt deliver.

BUT the pump should run, as of creating low pressure for the switch, which activates the pump.

The intake is too low. You can try by just putting tap just very slightly open, like a toilet is working and see if water is coming then.

Dont know why a (extra?) valve is a solution, ok you limit the waterflow to your house. But then pump only would give water like the toilet is using to fill up. Very low. You will be annoyed again.

 

Possibility is, there could be a blocking in your water supply from where the feed is. IS there a valve in it and not all open?

You changed the pump , so water was set off to install pump. Somewhere there is already a valve, though?!

Maybe that main valve got broken and it looks wide open, but isnt. Maybe the builder is referring to that?

Or did they after all put it open?

Anyway you could check if main valve is all open. Maybe switch it open/close few times  to see if it is working.

However if you see main valve just slightly open there you have the problem.

If you have opportunity to disconnect the feed to the pump somehow, you can also see if a good flow is going in.

Of course you have to shut down main valve first before disconnecting. Then open it again and see if waterflow is very good.

IF not, then or valve , or other blocking, or low pressure, flow from water system.

Just some thoughts.

 

How refreshing to see a brain actually working properly! Are you a Vulcan?

I can not fault your analysis, except you have not considered the effect of contaminants at various stages:- rust scale, sediments, etc. - and corrosion of parts, especially non-return valves.

Its been like that for a while ....  couple of years at least,   you can't talk to a real AA human being.   🤣

True that. I had to drive from Pattaya to Don Muang to find a real person, to upgrade my tickets to flatbed.

Does anyone remember my ex-next door neighbour?

I am curious! How did you know he was a poster here, most handles are, supposedly, anonymous, unless one is foolish enough to use ones' own name.... and use ones' own photo as an avatar.

I'm confused. Which one is the police chief?

It's just another manifestation of the utterly selfish attitude that makes drivers over- and under-take in inappropriate lanes, to the front of the traffic jam then push in, or double park outside the bank/hairdresser/coffee shop for half an hour, 10m from the traffiic lights and in sight of an empty parking space.

Since you are a moderator... My suggestion would be to remove them all, with one exception the +1 green emoticon. Which is useful as nothing needs to be said when on one is in full agreement. Disagreement should always be a bit more elaborate.

If+1 shows agreement, why not -1 to show disagreement and 0 to show boredom?

   Not to get into a pissing contest about suffering, but I also have periodic bouts of optical migraines along with the steady ringing noises from the tinnitus.  This leads me to believe that there is some type of electrical imbalance in my system. A voltage meter placed on my skin shows a steady charge of about  200 millivolts where the average human is said to have a lot less at around 70 millivolts

For me it boils down to the same thing that happens when a  wire with too much electrical gain amplifies a humming noise.  We are the result of  hundreds of thousands of years of  evolution. I'm just not sure if the problems are  from humanity's' distant past or for the distant future...

 

 

Music helps. I have an extensive playlist of most genres  of music to keep myself distracted by trying to memorize the part of every single instrument or voice.  Got a music scholarship in  the late 1960s because the steady tones allowed me to mimic the gift of perfect pitch so it's not all bad news to report   .......

 

Sample optical/ocular migraine

 

 

As soon as you see the first signs of an aura, taste a little salt. If it tastes good, take a gram or so.

Best if you have capsules, but impossible to get here...I make them for SWMBO, who suffers from migraine. She has to take a lot, and it controls the condition. No doctor will tell you this, but there is a lot of research out there to back it up.

I have to make 200 - 300 capsules a month, 300mg each.

I, like you, get occasional migraine aura, no headache. Salt works for me, but I only get them occasionally, less than one a month.

I would not be at all surprised if your tinnitus were a manifestation of migraine without headache.

Do let me know if it works or not!

An interesting distribution, however here in Siem Reap where I live, at 1pm on 20 January 2024 it is a lovely refreshing day with sunshine and clear blue skies with no haze/smoke pollution.

..and that is exactly what it shows! The wind is carrying it around you.... to everyone else.

This one is cheap and adequate for your purpose. I have two, one for the garden watering system, and one for a workshop water supply. Both very reliable, but do have low capacity pressure tanks so click in and out a lot with low flow demand.
