You forgot to mention where all of this started once again...Asia with its poor hygiene conditions

you probably don't know. Asia is not a country. And have you been to some of European countries where personal hygiene  is just jaw droppingly disgusting? trust me, I have been to a couple of them.

Now I am confused. Thought you were being sarcastic, but apparently you 're not. But for a normal user?

The "First Movers COVID Group" includes Australia, Denmark, Norway, Greece, the Czech Republic, Israel and Singapore. These are the countries that are doing the best in the World in terms of defeating Covid.

Neither China or Sth Korea are in the group. 

Need any more proof that this is simply a push for Tourist money, regardless of the danger posed to the Thai people

and you know that S.Korea is not a part of China, and has been praised for their success in containing the virus, right? What is your source of "the best in the world in terms of defeating Covid".

So it looks like buying the Android box would be first step, and then try out Netflix on it.

No, you dont need an android box if your tv is SMART.

got one from LAZADA a few years ago. Free delivery

How about importing some used items off ebay...etc. Would the tax be just as high as brand new ones?

Any problems at customs ?

taxed once(2500 import tax on the goods worth 1700 baht!!!) when I bought auto parts(a set of front struts). Other than that all my orders(mostly electronics) were delivered directly at my door step, no tax.

It's been closed for the last couple of days, I wonder?

Thanks olddoc, and whoisyourdaddy,

Your help is much appreciated!

Sorry, meant area(thumb and wrist), no wound and xray photos were taken because they suspected wrist bone fracture.

J.C

Thanks for the info

.

My one of thumb tendons(doctor calls it epl) was ruptured while scratching my back( thought it was odd, I could hear something snap inside of the wrist, but no pain at all and felt numbness on the thumb).

Initially thought it was muscle bruise, or something simple, but after examining xray film and the wound, doctor told me the thumb tendon gone ruptured!

I can hold things using thumb as normal, but cannot extend, or pull it.

Not a very big deal in daily activities.

What is the risk of delayed treatment?

Thanks

J.C

Hi all,

Does anyone here know the cost for reparing ruptured tendon specifically the one in thumb(epl)?

Thanks in abvance.

Most side road bike tyre shops can do it too.

Normal tube tires, yes, but tubeless ones, no(in general).

You need to go to a full garage or a car tire shop and they will normally charge you between 50 - 60 baht.

I have a honda pcx(125 cc).

Not a big problem.

cheers.

Is getting a retina worth the extra?

I don't wanna go the "second hand" route, nothing against, it's just not my personal preference.

Cheers

J.C

That's what I was thinking, but according to "mac buyer's guide", there will be updates soon. I'm confused.

J.C

Hi all,

Thinking about buying a MBP 13"(not retina) soon, but not sure if it'd be O.Kish time to do so considering their updating cycle, any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

pb? eztv? tpb?...

Couldn't you guys give full names and/or Internet adresses so that others can test too?

Really no idea what pb or tpb mean, and Google will not help with 2 or 3 letters only.

eztv = eztv.it,

pb, or tpb = thepiratebay.org

Same here(Chiangmai, 3BB), I'm not getting TPB, I can only access through proxy sites.

J.C

Thank you.

I thoroughly enjoyed the videos.

Cheers.

May I ask how much the OP's i5 ultrabook cost?

I paid 36,900baht for a UX31E which is 14" i5 model.(Chiangmai 3 weeks ago)

The build quality is really fantastic!(aluminum)
