I guess South of Thailand, by the sea, has nice climate and good air quality, affordable and quality food. Anywhere north from there, however, is only suitable if you're very interested in lung cancer.

It's really nasty to make hoaxes like that, and I hope karma is swift and cruel.

And a way to electrify the car park quickly...

I know a few government workers who have loans beyond that on their new luxury SUVs at 15k/month salary...

Just follow what works. Take Australia model. If driver is drunk, car goes into press. With 12 years of payments left on it, that's quite a harsh punishment...

Lazada is also selling drawers to mount on a normal desk that have a sturdy plate as a pull-out drawer. Was considering it but my desk is too low for comfortable use. Example: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/clamp-on-26x12-i2444875233-s8473548225.html

We have lots of complaints at our condo of 30-50% higher power bills than usual for March. Mine was about 20% higher, so I'll wait to see what April brings, but apparently some meters were found broken, and electricity authority was informed, as were tenants to pay the bill and there would be deduction in following bills. I do blame my higher bill on the hot part of March, though. A few days were VERY hot. Though admittedly, near the end of the month it was much cooler than expected. Let's see what next month's bill looks like before raising alarm.

And then put a video, clearly showing "The Market" with the crane just behind it.

Phyathai Hospital Sriracha is offering Pfizer, alas not for free. No appointment needed. For last 6 months already.

Can't write hospital name (we all know why), but I had kidney stones, and found Nurofen work the best for the pain when any of them gets stuck. But during this time blood pressure gets high, and worried about it, another doctor recommended Valsartan to counter that. Works a treat. Now... what he didn't tell me, beyond "paracetamol maybe being better than NSAIDs) was that taking Valsartan and Nurofen causes renal failure. Basically kidneys fail. Of course, since you get just pills with take x per day after meal instructions, I wasn't aware of these side effects until... well, until it was sort of too late. That took 6+ months to recover from. Lesson learned after good 250,000 baht additional hospital bill: always google up the side effects of every medicine prescribed before taking it. No matter who prescribes it. That way I've learned that another medicine prescribed was banned by much of the World 20 years ago...

Guess she won't be needing oil change now but rather a car change... ????

To report them for jaywalking?

It's actually pleasant 21.6 C in my end of Bangkok now, with AQI meter proudly displaying 6 right now. In fact, yesterday was the first time ever I saw a 0 on it... like, EVER. That was during the very strong wind in the morning. At that time temperature was 27 but felt far lower.

This is just a thought, I'm by no means a legal expert on this... but - the condo is in a Thai name, the owner is OP's wife, and it was bought before marriage. I don't think the foreign husband has any word in selling it, since according to authorities, the place is 100% owned by the wife. From what I understand in case of divorce, anything that is gained during marriage would be split, but not what was owned before marriage. And condo is in her name, so basically no matter who paid for it, it belongs to her. As such, I do not believe she needs husband's permission to sell it, unless there was some other contract between the 2 partners, prohibiting the sale... Land department would only care about who is listed on chanote. I doubt OP's name is listed on the right side of the table. But hope someone with legal background can give a definitive answer.

Attack submarine? Who does Thailand plan to invade by sea??

People have accidents and survive. Sure, they might be paralyzed, they might have brain damage, they might remain vegetables. But they survived! So why bother with all this drink and drive, seat belts, etc. Just let people drink, drive like idiots, smash themselves (and others!) up, instead of all this <deleted> around road safety!

I, for one, sympathize with this guy. It's difficult to drive his narrative... booze bad, pot good...

At least nobody recommended putting these id!ots into the army and teaching them how to use weapons to complete the task...

Not surprised. Pilots follow "Aviate, navigate, communicate" rule. Where flying the plane, knowing where you are and where you can go is far more important than letting someone know about it, who can't help you in anything in case of emergency. So it is not unusual that pilots don't respond when in critical situation.

Just tested iOS app and it works normally. Just when installing it, you have to disable Wifi and use cellular network, so it can check phone number. If it's not same number as what is registered with the bank, it refuses to let you log in.

That thing works exactly the same as air fryer. Air fryer just has another layer of plastic around it and the door to open at the bottom rather than the lid to open at the top. Blowing hot air at close proximity at food however is exact same technology the air fryers use.

You should be in charge of naming airplanes at Boeing...

That's not true. It recovered fair bit from first days of invasion, and with Russia now planning to only allow local currency to be used to pay for gas, which many European countries have no alternative for, it may well recover all the losses of recent month. 1:2.61 on Feb 24, 1:2.91 now. Not much of a difference. Certainly not "the sky is falling, water is burning" crisis.

our local barber is 250 baht for haircut. They raised the price when they bought all the equipment to sanitise the shop after every customer, which is perfectly fine. Small place, 3 guys in there, very friendly. No need to explain what to do as it's same one every time and already knows. Gladly pay them double that to at least a bit compensate for lack of customers since COVID hit.

I think with war showing no end in sight, no idea when they can go home and limited finances left, rationing to spread what they have left to as long as possible is probably the most sensible thing Russians and Ukrainians can do.
