What is the cleanest and nearest beach located near Bangkok?
tomazbodner replied to Goodboybkk's topic in Bangkok
Or they'll get attacked and abused ???? -
Shortcomings need to be now gotten somewhere else as billions from foreigners won't come in. Maybe a 10x tax increase on land ownership on horizon? Or blame foreigners and force those on long term visas to make substantially higher investments/deposits in banks? Maybe something even more creative only a greedy gazillionnaire could have dreamed up. Countries don't start selling off the land because they have nothing better to do, but to get cash to top up empty coffers.

Phuket tourism leaders want cheaper domestic flights to help tourism
tomazbodner replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
I don't think flight prices are a problem. The taxi mafia costs a lot more than airfares. Why not start there? -
Welcome to Thailand, rookie. Surely you can complain, but if you get cops to actually engage, next loud music might be at your funeral. Seriously - never... NEVER make a Thai lose face. It may cost you your life.

True but Windows 11 doesn't come with digital license for Windows 10 AFAIK so when Windows 10 is installed it'll ask for it to be activated, for which OP will have to buy Windows 10 license (although likely a cheap Lazada license would do).
-
Your notebook might have Windows 11 only drivers, so while majority should still work fine, you might get into trouble with some devices unsupported. Replacing SSD would likely break warranty stickers and by that void warranty. As the old notebook had different processor, graphics, sound card, chipset, etc. you may be in for a rather large disappointment in terms of performance and stability. And since the hardware changes, you'll be forced to buy a new Windows 10 license unless you had bought it before as a box (not OEM or preinstalled on old laptop). What's bothering you about Windows 11?

Which standard is Thailand's safety standard? Surely not the WHO standard. And what are people supposed to do when they are alerted that the air pollution is exceeding Auschwitz gassing chambers' air quality? I have a panoramic view towards West of Bangkok and EVERY DAY I can see many plumes of smoke across horizon all around Bangkok. There's a really visible, maybe 2-3 km tall tower of pollution right over the horizon in grayish brownish tone all over the city. How many illnesses and deaths is this causing? Yet all that is done is talk talk talk and no action, despite the situation getting worse every year. Maybe Thailand's government should be allowed to be sued like the European governments for failing to do their jobs. https://www.euronews.com/green/2022/09/27/europes-fight-for-clean-air-german-government-latest-to-be-sued-over-toxic-pollution

Surely all extensions by the officers who worked on those criminals will be scrutinized, then probably many others checked with demands to see all conditions were fulfilled, before some draconian measures are added to conditions. Wonder how it'll go down for those who don't meet requirements and are using agents to arrange stuff upcountry...

Was informed a couple of months back. Nothing changes. CardX is owned by SCB, just spinned off to a separate entity, still fully owned by SCB. According to the restructuring plan of The Siam Commercial Bank Public Company Limited (the “Bank”), which the Bank announced on 22 September 2021, the Bank will transfer certain types of the Bank’s credit card business and personal loan business to Card X Company Limited (“CardX”), which is a company in the same group as the Bank, and which has been authorized to operate a credit card business and personal loan business. Such transfer of certain types of credit card and personal loan business to CardX will become effective on 10 December 2022 (the “Business Transfer Date”) after the approval from the relevant authorities has been obtained. (If there is any change in the Business Transfer Date, the Bank will notify you accordingly.) Subrogation of Rights by the Transfer of the Credit Card Service Agreement, and the Transfer of the Claims under such Agreement By this letter, the Bank and CardX would like to inform you of the subrogation of rights by the transfer of the aforementioned credit card service agreement to CardX, and the transfer of the claims under such agreement, including the subrogation of rights to be the insured person and/or beneficiary (as the case may be) in the place of the Bank, in the case that you hold a life insurance policy, the main benefits of which will be paid for the outstanding debt of the aforementioned credit card(s) to the Bank - regardless of whether the Bank is the insured person and/or beneficiary under such life insurance policy. This will be effective from the Business Transfer Date onwards. Therefore, from the Business Transfer Date, CardX will become the service provider of the aforementioned products to you. Any statements referring that such products belong to the Bank (in all channels) shall be regarded as the products of CardX. CardX is to be subrogated as the counterparty in the place of the Bank from the Business Transfer Date onwards, and you can continue to use such products from CardX. In this regard, CardX would like to notify you of the changes made to the terms and conditions of certain related products and services as specified in this letter. Communication channel via LINE Official Account: @cardxthailand CardX has developed a communication channel with you via LINE Official Account: @cardxthailand for the purpose of checking the relevant information, such as product information, news, benefits, and reward points. You can add the LINE Official Account: @cardxthailand

Usually overstay isn't a problem... unless it is. Like you take a taxi and he bumps another car, police asks for your passport... So paying fine on leaving without much or any consequences only works if you make it safely to the immigration at the airport. If you get caught anywhere else, it won't be the same. That said - I've only been asked to see passport and checked visa once in 25 years+. At the back of motorbike, very near Makkasan Airport Link station.

Need to trim a 13 second video. Can anyone help?
tomazbodner replied to Dario's topic in IT and Computers

I guess that included all the parts, which the contractor didn't bother to install, normally these would be part of the product when you buy a new one. 2 pieces or rubber seals, a plastic ring and some plastic cubes with screws that the seat screwed into. So yes, maybe a bit more expensive than others, but it was Cotto installing a Cotto toilet...
-
Generally none include installation. In my condo the contractor did a terrible job (that was before I moved in) and as toilet is Cotto, had to ask their team to come "reinstall" it. They did an absolutely excellent job for about 2500 baht.

Need to trim a 13 second video. Can anyone help?
tomazbodner replied to Dario's topic in IT and Computers
Yes, trimming is not going to work. Instead you need to re-compress it. Easiest is VLC (videolan.org) which is also an excellent video player. In top menu, select Convert / Stream. Then choose your original file, and resize the video, lower the frame rate, possibly remove the audio, and set the bitrate like 1000 kbps (which is plenty). Then export to a new file, which you then share. It should only be a couple of MB in size. -
This is just my opinion... There are 2 Applications folders. One is the shared folder directly in the Macintosh HD root, another is in usr/username subfolder. When you install applications, you are sometimes asked if you're installing for every user on the Mac (then it puts it into root, main Applications folder), or only for your user (in which case it'll put it in your personal Applications folder). My take is that you probably have the link pointing to your personal Applications folder rather than the main one. In Finder properties, remove Applications from the list, then add it again. That might point to the correct one. Alternatively, if you're OK to have Applications folder in the dock, drag the correct Applications folder into the dock near the Trash, and "show as icon". Clicking on it will open the correct Apps folder and you can then select the application to run. To open that folder (say to uninstall application), just click on "Open in Finder" at the bottom of that list. Another alternative is to use launch pad, the colourful boxes icon (used to have a rocket on the icon), which shows up an iPad like interface to launch apps available in the Mac. Not sure if this is of any help.
