  1. For some reason using “<removed> “( Total Dissolved Solids) causes the script to remove it,
  2. I have a couple of RO systems and been using them for about 14 years. They have definitely come down in price with the latest from Lazada about 5000 Baht. I replace the ( first filter, sediment) every 6 months, about 50 baht and the rest when the taste changes , about 2 years. Can also add additional Post carbon filters to the stack very cheaply. Some facts, pure ( good) water has NO taste. People say RO water tastes funny. Hello, something is wrong with the system, suggest maintenance ( not high in Thai DNA). <removed> testing is NOT about quality but how much ( unknown) dissolved chemicals are in the sample.Here is an excerpt from Google AI.. No, <removed> (Total Dissolved Solids) is not a good measure of overall water quality. While <removed> provides a measure of the total amount of dissolved minerals and salts in water, it doesn't indicate the presence or type of harmful contaminants. A low <removed> reading doesn't necessarily mean the water is safe to drink, and a high <removed> reading could be due to beneficial minerals or harmful pollutants. A working serviceable, well maintained RO system is probably the most affordable drinking water solution.
  3. As a rice “ farmer” in Isaan, a few points. When farmers say 5 Baht a kilo, the Millers pay about 10 Baht a kilo for milled rice as nearly half the weight is bran. Yes, cheap and then sell the bran for chicken food. If the Rice Millers were regulated like the Sugar Millers, then they would be pressured to offer higher prices . Sugar industry is backed up by some very high people pressuring for high prices. Now Scorecard mentioned technology to ensure water efficiency. Many years ago, I tried to buy a Laser Land Leveller in Thailand. None were made so I imported one from India. I level my fields to less than 1 cm to preserve the little water we get at times. All my rice is grown organically and it has taken about 6 years for the soil to get rid of the poisons and chemical fertilisers. Last year was my first crop yields comparable with yields using Chemicals. ( I don’t live in Surin where there is an Organic Cooperative). Most Thais couldn’t take the reduced yield for many years, they need to survive. You can’t blame them for not going Organic.
  4. Google, “samsung ac temperature changes automatically to 30 degrees”. Seems like a known problem and the fixes for it, worth a shot.
  5. Also most units have a reset switch or a complete power off( breaker) for a few minutes to reset.
  6. Couple of things, maybe the remote control temperature is displayed for a few seconds to show you your remote input worked then it reverts to the actual room temperature. Secondly, have you done any maintenance to the condenser ( outside unit). Does that fan work? Is the evaporator ( inside unit) fan working as advertised .
  7. Had the same about 2 weeks ago, new scan and after 2 days all ok again.
  8. All aircraft are licensed to carry X amount of Pax with all doors serviceable. When doors are classified as unusable during a Pax Evacuation, these numbers reduce.
  9. I think most people have missed the point from the OP.
  10. How can one lose control if one didn’t have control in the first place.
  11. I didn’t do the swap to the new passport until I had to do my next extension, about 4 months. SCB first, took 10 min so new bank docs had the new number. In Korat, they elected to do transfer and extension all at once, really no dramas.
  12. “Illegal fishing”?, probably not quite the same.
  13. My home is here is Isaan, the Embassy website had the online form which I downloaded. Passport sent to my “ home” address as Will27 stated. You can elect to pick up the new Passport from the Embassy if you wish.
  14. I just did it entirely online from home here. Quick visit to local photo shop for pictures then sent all online. Just make sure they don’t photoshop to enhance. Received new Passport in about 4 weeks. No need for Agent, only 1 page to fill out.
  15. I rest my case.
  16. And I thought this topic was about Ear Buds, not a love affair with a couple of members.
  17. Trump is a player You certainly got that right, but with what?
  18. I drove on the M6 from Pak Chong to Korat 2 days ago. It finishes at the moment on the ring road around Korat. Easy to go North or East from there. Toll gates are being built now so still free, probably another 6 months or so. All 80 Km/H posted but most traffic at about 110Km/h. Sign saying only 4 wheel vehicles allowed.
  19. Another decision making factor would be, which country allows the most creative accounting procedures?
  20. “Now she has full control of my social life.” Thailand Ops Normal.
  21. I thought that model pushes itself. 5555.
