It sounds like you have 2-factor authentication (2FA) turned on. To ger rid of the behaviour you describe you will need to turn it off, although from a security point of view it's better to leave it on to reduce the risk of your account being hacked, This link shows the instructions: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/1064203?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop

Translation: He didn't so it so we have to find something else.

Thanks for the input so far... @Woof999, yes that's at the bottom end of what I hoped I could get. I don't need the money so not desperate to sell but I don't need it taking up space and gathering dust either. it sees occasional use for streaming in the bedroom so the plan is to sell for as much as I can and put the money towards a mini PC to replace it.

I have a spare PC that I don't use very much so I'm thinking of selling it. But I don't know how much to ask... What would. the ASEAN Now hive mind pay? What would be a good asking price, expecting to sell for a bit less? Gigabyte B365 HD3 motherboard Intel i5 8400 Asus RX 470 4 GB Strix 2x 8GB Corsair LPX 2400 RAM 250 ADATA NVME M.2 SSD 1TB WD Green HDD ASUS WIFI / Bluetooth card Genuine Windows 10 or 11 In a budget Aerocool case with glass side panel and static RGB front fans. (Can't remember exact model). Over to you...

As a general rule, it's better to have more sticks of RAM for the same total. You'd be better off going for a 2x8GB kit. I have Corsair Vengeance LPX in my machines but any known brand should be fine. DO NOT buy any Intel CPU where the model ends in an 'F' these chips don't have graphics (it isn't on the motherboards anymore). If you go for that chip you will 100% need a discrete graphics card.

Pay who? An individual or business? Wise is a fairly popular way to pay money into a Thai account from abroad, wise (dot) com

I can understand parts of it and it doesn't look good. Something about 'a foreigner with characteristics that (something)' and the last line is 'not permitted to enter the Kingdom-

I had a Samsung fridge of about the same age before that came with a 2-pin plug and a separate earth lead that was supposed to be screwed to the chassis and connected to a grounding point. So, my guess would be no, it's not double-insulated.

Bear in mind that you can only change the country so many times in a certain timeframe so if there are other country specific apps that you need,be careful.

You need to change the country associated with your Google account. Your physical location or using a VPN will have no effect whatsoever. The way I would do it is download it through a third-party site such as apkpure. There are also APK download browser extensions that will download directly from Google Play that you can sideload.

I think the starting date will always remain the same as the original 5-year licence you get after the temporary one for each renewal. Only the expiry changes.

Something like this? https://www.lazada.co.th/products/pull-cord-switch-10a-for-bathroom-or-shower-rooms-i336012052-s650756828.html?clickTrackInfo=query%3Apull%2Bcord%2Bswitch%3Bnid%3A336012052%3Bsrc%3ALazadaMainSrp%3Brn%3A7a42bdbaed7a7ccdf22e007ba2b3bdca%3Bregion%3Ath%3Bsku%3A336012052_TH%3Bprice%3A100051949%3Bclient%3Adesktop%3Bsupplier_id%3A100051949%3Basc_category_id%3A12090%3Bitem_id%3A336012052%3Bsku_id%3A650756828%3Bshop_id%3A519&fastshipping=0&freeshipping=0&fs_ab=1&fuse_fs=1&lang=en&location=Chonburi&price=6E 2&priceCompare=&ratingscore=5.0&request_id=7a42bdbaed7a7ccdf22e007ba2b3bdca&review=5&sale=30&search=1&source=search&spm=a2o4m.store_product.list.3&stock=1

Had anyone actuallly got the new split screen interface for Andoid Auto in Thailand yet. (Without being in the beta program?) It is supposedly rolling out globally now but therte seems to be no information on how, where or when different locations or devices will get it...

This also possibly sounds like an app requesting permissions. Some of these permissions sound bad but are actually necessary to allow the app to work. For example, if you download a photo viewer app, it needs permissions to view the photos.

How are you "sending" the videos? If you are trying to use a sharing service, you'll need to check the privacy settings...

I think it might be a Checkered Keelback

And will it be available to dirty foreigners without a Thai ID card?

It will mostly be an urban commuter/going to the supermarket car but will also be expected to do a couple of trips a year and cope with hills in Petchabun/Khao Yai type areas (with a full load of luggage).

There's a reasonable chance it is apps using background data even if you are not actively using them. Make sure that mobile data is switched off.

So, basically it is too good to be true...? Would these issues present themselves more or less on a car that was mostly driven in an urban environment with occasional trips of about 50-60 km on a highway?

Thanks for the input. Having done some proper research, I think I understand how they work a bit more. I can also see how the auto-brake feature could be quite useful. I can probably get used to it and maybe even grow to like it.

2009 Honda City 1497 cc 120 PS 145 Nm 2022 Honda City 988 cc 122 PS 122 Nm Both have similar weights. This would suggest that despite a much lower engine capacity, the new Honda City's are at least as powerful (if not slightly better) than the older engines. I appreciate that engine technology will have developed in the last decade but are 1.0l engines really that good now?

My gut feeling without any experience or evidence is that I just don't trust the idea of them. Over to the ASEAN Now hive mind to back me up or put me in my place....

Perhaps try this first?

If you really, really need/want to be off the booze, go to the fridge take out a can and then pour it down the sink. Repeat x2. Otherwise drink it...
