Spaniard arrested for stealing handbag at Patong nightclub
I find the last paragraph of linked article interesting... During the arrest, the police retrieved an iPhone 14 Pro, described as purple, among eight other pieces of evidence. Interestingly, among the nine pieces of evidence gathered, the reported 10,000 baht in cash and the hotel key were not listed. I don't want to speculate what happened with them...

New tax era in Thailand begins as Revenue now shares data with 138 countries within the OECD
Not sure you're considered a tourist, staying over half a year in country. But then, that could be fixed by simply returning to 180 days per year maximum stay in Thailand without non-immigrant visa.

Thai woman shares experience in helping airline catch thief on plane
With all due respect, his English is still much better than your Thai. And same goes for all other posters mocking the wrong words in original post. Thaiger obviously could afford to hire proofreaders. But would you guys be willing to pay for your news?

Minister Shuts Pink Line For Seven Days After Accident
There were warnings when switch from light rail to mono rail happened some years back, that monorail wasn't supposed to run such long distances and there will be frequent maintenance requirements, which wouldn't make it economical to run. But savings in construction were substantial and that's what went ahead. Someone correct me if my memory is acting up. Anyway - the power rails falling off was probably not part of the initial discussion on maintenance costs. It's probably got something to do about quality of workmanship in installing those rails...

That last statement in linked article, though... "Adcha has made no public comment regarding the punishment, if any, for two green plate taxi drivers who assaulted a Grab taxi driver, leaving him hospitalised with a punctured lung."

Flying into BKK after long stay
- Odd scam/information leak
In browser or any phone, logged in or not, you have "advertising ID". You can usually reset it in the settings to clear history. But it doesn't care if you're logged in or not. It's using your phone or browser ID to track you.- Odd scam/information leak
Social media apps are known to rip information out of your conversations and sell the keywords. Tested it a few times, by talking irrelevant stuff and behold, within hours, ads for the same stuff showed up on websites, YouTube, etc. It is not part of Android, though. As there was no such effect when using a blank phone with no apps installed.- Taiwan seeking answers over hit and run death in Bangkok
Unnamed hospital on Pattanakarn road... well, excluding veterinary clinics, there's a gross total of 1. And you can see a big sign with its name on if you stand on Airport link platform at Huamark... Some secret!- Passport run out of pages but due for visa extension 30/12
Get on the plane to UK, get a new passport there, hopefully before your current visa expires, return with both passports, new and old, present old one for visa, then before expiry date go and extend visa and transfer it to new passport. You'll need to have enough time and possibility to get new passport there on time, and enough space in current passport to have exit stamp from Thailand. If that's not workable, you'll need to start applying from scratch with new passport. Your current passport is useless if it has no pages left.- Why Are Farangs in Thailand Allowed to Live on High FLoors?
I think that farangs should be banned from using internet and posting on forums. What do you think, @GammaGlobulin?- Windows 10 Pro
OK, now I get it. If you already have Windows, you can wipe it down to clean slate by choosing to reset Windows - that wipes all files and settings and keeps only OS. But that would be existing OS you have installed. If you want to change version of OS, unless you wish to manipulate kernel with some PowerShell commands that were probably mentioned earlier, the "correct" way is to insert the USB stick with your Windows 10 Pro installer, reboot PC and boot from USB stick. There, choose NEW install. Choose disk and format it (or delete and recreate partitions), then you can choose whichever version you have software license for. But you can NOT run the installer from inside already loaded Windows and choose a different version.- Windows 10 Pro
I think there's an option in the media creation tool to select that you're making image for another computer, then allows you to choose whatever version you need... At least it used to work that way, admittedly I haven't downloaded Win10 in 2 years...- Windows 10 Pro
In that case you don't need to buy anything. As suggested earlier, download the image with media creation tool, and have a blank USB key ready. Install on kid's laptop from that key and apply your previous license key. If this is the same laptop, it should work straight. If it was OEM license and you changed laptop, then it may allow you to use key, it may ask you to contact Microsoft for activation. But basically - if it's same computer, and genuine key is loaded, and you need to reinstall, you don't need a key as computer would already have a digital license applied, so it would apply the previous key without even asking.- Help with Work Permit procedure
That's why I wrote that things may have changed, but above is what I've done last time I changed job before getting permanent residence, and it was doable. But things may have changed since. And waiting for someone with more recent experience. So thanks Buddha you came along to help. - Odd scam/information leak
