  1. Don't get the logic. Say I need 800k baht and it's in say EUR. Let's say it's 40 (for the sake of simple calculation) THB to 1 EUR. That's 20k EUR that needs to be transferred plus some fees. If EUR doesn't drop significantly, I'd still be getting close to 20k EUR when I transfer it back, minus the transfer fees. So there's no loss. But if you pay agent, say 20k, that money is gone and it is far higher than the loss in transfer left and right and exchange rate changes in a few months...
  2. How did you get it black inside? I thought it's all that ugly red/brown when white outside?
  3. Will demonstrators need Entertainment license for that, or was this not an exact copy from some other country?
  4. I'm using Coway. It's a subscription service for 5 years, and there's a technician coming around every 2 months to clean it and replace filters. Happy so far...
  5. He is now. And he's probably after another naive victim.
  6. Calling Garrett for a shipping container loaded with pop corn...
  7. I guess BK has a new marketing manager in Thailand. Constantly in the news. And I imagine, there'll be AN members saying they want to try this right now. So it seems to be a good investment in marketing.
  8. If you fail on these 3 questions, your access to the bank should be revoked and you should be forced to keep money in your sock.
  9. Just don't do it in Titan!
  10. Were cards in question used before September 2022? Maybe it's from this: https://www.bitdefender.com/blog/hotforsecurity/daixin-ransomware-gang-allegedly-abandons-hack-of-airasia-due-to-airlines-chaotic-network-standards/
  11. I can hear his voice reading that!
  12. These refills, as well as most if not all Brother lasers use styrene-based toners, which are carcinogenic when heated up. But who cares about health, as long as it's cheap, I guess.
  13. http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06287229.pdf Page 34 for Wifi setup instructions.
  14. Tried to use them, as many of mine expire end of this year - but... nothing available when I tried to search for flights. Maybe only for TG operated direct flights, but no connecting flights. Note that the miles are only for the fare, but you still have to pay for the taxes, surcharges, etc. So in the end a mileage ticket from TG might cost you as much as ticket from another airline without using miles. Good part of it however is that it's valid for a year. So if miles expire end of this year, you can book a flight in December for up to December 2024. And yes - you can book online. Or TG office in Silom (didn't do that since before COVID so not sure that's still option). And you can add up to 5 nominees - you can issue ticket for them in the same way. But if you want to change any name, it'll cost you.
  15. https://www.hp.com/th-en/shop/hp-laser-107w-4zb78a.html Ships next business day, takes 1-2 days to deliver. In stock. Or https://www.ofm.co.th/en/product/hp-laser-printer-107w-white-piece-p.4007258 Also ready to ship and in stock. So if you have OfficeMate there, maybe check it out.
  16. MPEG4 or M4V is usually same, MP4 likely as well. The Sony format is MPEG2 TS, which is intended for transport/stream. It can be converted to MPEG2 PS, which is format intended for storing/playback. Sony has proprietary software which allows you to clip and merge clips and then export them to MPEG2 PS. Though new versions of software might have MPEG4 output option, mine didn't. But Handbrake or VLC with convert to file could let you convert to most formats. There is no difference between MPEG2 and MPEG4 in terms of absolute quality. MPEG4 can just do a much better compression with less quality loss. You can achieve same quality, just MPEG2 file will be much bigger. Never had 3D camcorder so can't comment on how the files look like for that.
  17. Given the figures now (about 10 senators voted for Pita only) I think he stands no chance of getting elected today.
  18. The point of prosumer/professional camcorder is to keep as high picture quality and editable video format, so 15 MB/min is actually on the low side. Idea is to edit it on your computer and then export into a compressed MPEG 4 file. P is progressive (whole picture displayed at once), I is interlaced (picture is displayed in odd lines first, even lines after, which requires twice the speed and since it's captured slightly apart time-wise, can cause comb effect on moving objects or panning). 10 years ago 25P or 50I was a good spec, today it's no longer. Personally I would record samples in both and check which I liked more. Interlaced will be smoother but have artifacts on moving objects, Progressive will be less smooth but with fewer artifacts.
  19. Grab uses Google Maps. Complain to Google. And set up direct payment so you won't need to bother with not returning change.
  20. Mono Laser M7105DW
  21. Maybe I am used to HP, Canon and Fuji, so this AIO felt very flimsy and loud in comparison. It does the job, just definitely looks as cheap as its price tag is.
  22. Parent company of both Lexmark and Pantum is the same - NineStar. Pantum printers use Lexmark print engines. And to your last question - unfortunately yes. Then again, for someone who prints very little and isn't overly concerned about the quality or durability of equipment, it's not a bad choice.
  23. Certainly looks like it...
