And how or where will these rapid tests be done ?? In time to get to the festival ?

Maybe they mean performers ?  I can't see how they will be able to

"rapid test"   everyone attending before entry...unless they are only expecting a handful of attendees ?

Is your HDD full? This is the only time I get messages, when the HDD or Cache are full.

Could also be filesystem corruption  so run "chkdsk"    and/or there is a problem with a block of data (maybe due to filesystem corruption)

  so there should be an option somewhere in the bittorent client to 

"verify the torrent"   then resume the download.

It's easy for the filesystem to become corrupted when the electricity is unreliable especially in the thunder and lightning season we are in at the moment.

or does that just apply to tourists  ? 

Expensive hotels just for tourists  me thinks these poor Burmese will be incarnated in little more than a cattle shed for 2 weeks then sent packing across the border ...but perhaps/hopefully they will just be sent packing immediately ?

The only scam was the multi million baht parking garage they built.

Well there was the previous "super marina"  project that was never used because the mechanisms to lift the speed boats out of the water and prevent damage during bad weather did not work... so the speedboat captain's boycotted it and continued to  bring the boats in everyday and park them in the area now commandeered by the military for the large blue swath of concrete and recent Covidicy food handouts.

The logos cause this 'burn'?

anything static on the screen for long periods of time can cause "burn in" logos are the worst culprit   old phosure tube tv's,plasma and OLED are quite susceptible, apparently "normal" LED tvs are much less susceptible but they can still be effected if the image is static long enough.

They are doing this in Ao Nang,

Doing what ?

OLED is subject to burn more than LED.

Yes that is a big concern  many channels nowadays  have almost permanent  logos ..I have some burn in on my plasma screen caused by watching movies and tv shows with subtitles enabled.

Not to forget the now renamed cast iron "manhole" covers I almost came a cropper on one at Swiss Cottage junction.

That's the law, bikes must keep left.

No I think that is wrong   the law says slower vehicles (of all sorts)  should keep left   and that on a road with 2 or more lanes "undertaking" on the left is allowed.

Are there plans to change these rules to allow people with no work permits to legally work while visiting Thailand?

I doubt it very much.

for some reason Anti-vax MDs almost never get their opinions covered in the news

Perhaps many do not raise doubts they might have about these latest vaccines  out of fear of being labelled  as  "Anti Vax a$$holes" and threaten with being struck off the medical register.
