Thai wildlife rescuer remains comatose months after cobra bite
Aforek replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
As said above, the picture in the OP is a spitting cobra, not a King cobra anyway, spitting cobra are also very dangerous but how ? they spite in the eyes, so they don't inject venom in the skin, isn'it ? Euthanasia if family is ok, but brain without blood during 30 minutes, it's destroyed for ever -
Thoughts on the opening ceremony at the Paris Olympics
Aforek replied to spidermike007's topic in Political Soapbox
Song of Edith Piaf, who had an exceptional voice listening Céline Dion, wow, I thought " she sings like Edit Piaf " not many people can do it and "hymne à l'amour " is a fantastic love song -
You should try again as before, it seems to work I have just ( but not use it yet ) changed my visa card number and they told me that I can use my new card to buy some goods

I have received some goods from Amazon.us, delivered by DHL, driver didn't ask anything best way is when the custom fee is included in the final amount during checkout, as with Amazon.us ( and transport free to Thailand ) ( and I am not American, but Amazon.us is the best solution for me )

ok, I wait for the bill; I contacted the seller on Ebay, waiting for his response the item comes from China, I remember reading that goods coming from China, less than 1500 bahts, no customs to pay
-
Hello, I bought a small item ( 29 euros ) with Ebay : usually, goods are sent by post and last time I paid 35 bahts this time, the item ( 29 euros ) will be sent to me by Fedex 😫 Fedex, I know, two months ago, I paid 9000 bahts for a good of about 500 euros this time, if customs and Fedex are more than , let's say , 900 bahts, I intend to refuse to pay what will happen ? I can refuse to pay or I have to ( good is already in Bangkok ) ? in my country, I have read that the good is sent back to the sender, free of charge thank you

i have no notifications from Microsoft to use Onedrive I don't like Cloud and I still do my system image backup on a separate hard disk, it's still possible on W11 , same way than with W10 ( Win 7 )
-
No reason to use Win 11, true , Win 10 was enough for me the only reason I wanted Win 11 is that in october next year, Microsoft stops to update Win 10 and I was sorry to have to change my "uncompatible " very good PC for a new one then I read that many people can use Win11 with an " uncompatible " PC, so I thought : " I shall have a try , may it works for me, too " and it works very well , I can use my PC many years more ( may be with Win 12 , why not ?)
-
i am with Windows from Windows 95 and will never change, no Mac or Linux a few days ago I changed win 10 to win 11, very easy, not much difference with Win 10 safe, no danger ... I am not a geek, just a happy Windows user

workaround to install Win11 on 'Unsupported' PC
Aforek replied to gamb00ler's topic in IT and Computers
I just saw this post today yesterday, I installed Win 11 on my not compatible computer ( only because my CPU is Intel I 5 , for the rest it's ok ) I did'nt use Rufus , just download and run " Skip_TPM_Check_on_Dynamic_Updatefus" Skip_TPM_Check_on_Dynamic_Update at DuckDuckGo so far ( only one day 😀), it works very well, no need to buy a new computer next year, my PC is still very good -

Different 100 bahts note
Aforek replied to Aforek's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Of course it's a specimen : mine is not for plurial form of nouns in Thai language, can you give an exemple in Thai ? I can read Thai and I have never seen it, for me no plurial in Thai language, they use the word "lai " to express "many" -

Aforek replied to Aforek's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Same as yours : there is a limited number or what ? I have never seen one like this myself, apart mine -
Hello, My bank gave me a bundle of 100 new 100 bahts notes and in the bundle I found a note with the usual designs, except that it is yellow-gold, not the usual colors I showed it to Thai people around me and no one has ever seen a note like that was there a commemoration?

Surely very good , but surely very expensive for average Thai family I suppose Thai government doesn't help ( financial help )

Hello, how is autism treated in Thailand ? are there specialized services ? I knom a litte Thai boy ( about 3 years old ) who for me has the symptoms of autism my sister in law told me that in her boy's school, there are people who don' t participate, don't mix with other people, just stay apart ; does is mean that all these children ( "normal " and "abnormal " ) stay in the same place , nobody take them as a problem ? thanks for your answers

Rejected for the second time
Aforek replied to Aforek's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
may be we don't have the same situation ( I am retired with an O-A visa, and never paid 100 bahts in 8 years for the 90 days job ) what you say about the foreign workers, I have not seen it , I wonder if it' s the same I.O 🤒 ( Prachin buri, they are now in a new building ) TM 30 yes, 100 hundred bahts but one time, when I came back from Laos, 4 years ago the woman at the desk was very nice and in front of me she handed two times about 10-20 passports to " delegates " , with a yellow paper for every passport -
Rejected for the second time
Aforek replied to Aforek's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I did it this morning at Prachinburi, because online doesn't work for the second time in three months They didn't ask me 100 bahts, and as usual, yes there are many workers but they send one person with 10 or 20 passports and the 90 days is made in one time for these people : maybe they gave money, but I have only seen the woman give back the 10-20 passport to one person without asking money the woman told me to write online the date of my end of visa extension, but I did it already online and it was rejected in 3 months, I shall do it online the first week of the due date ( due date on 15 of september, so about ( 2-7 september ) as I have read here, maybe it will work -
