  1. no mention of whether they knew the 3rd guy or not? usually between friends, especially if on holiday or just out together it would not be an issue paying a known friends bill and getting it back later i seen the videos the guards started the violence imo once bill was paid, guards should have left as all resolved iirc the first act was throwing some bystander out of the bar who was just trying to calm the situation
  2. when i had a go-go bar we had security that was provided by the police we were paying one of those security punched one of our own girls in the face when she declined to give him some money (she could not work for a week) i fired all 3 of them that night (as the other 2 just stood there and watched and done nothing) and then had 2 of them come next night threatening to cut my throat.
  3. not saying this is what happened but from experience i can tell you it is very common for expats and tourists to quickly make new "friends" here while out n about, move on to the next bar together as a group then the new friend suddenly disappears after running up a bill had this happen a few times, even with expats when in groups
  4. how thick is the wall? what drill do you have? i have drill bits for this 20mm bit 300mm long etc but are SDS so it may depend on your drill
  5. for 1/2 inch hole, you need a 12 or 13mm diamond-coated or carbide-tipped drill bit drill from tile side, do not use hammer on tile, tape on tile will help too, also drops of water if needed when drilling drill on slow speed to start, do not apply too much pressure, pause frequently you can get tile drill bits that have more of a point but not sure that size just take your time myself i would also buy a box of new tiles ready to replace the first attempt lol and hopefully they won't be needed and would be a waste of time purchasing which is still better than needing them but not having them. saying that it is 1/2 inch pipe, iirc they are not exactly 1/2inch OD have you measured the pipe for exact dimension?
  6. Aren't casinos legal in Myanmar? also have they never heard of solar? something the casinos can easily afford
  7. This is where you will struggle.
  8. just imagine if WW3 does break out and conveniently and completely coincidentally whilst remaining neutral Thailand just legalizes stuff, like kratom, weed, shrooms, coke, smack, gambling and prostitution just in the nick of time mmmmmm...........🤔
  9. eyes, watching the reporter live inform us Building 7 had collapsed yet nothing had hit it and it was still standing in the background, but then did collapse even though nothing touched it, That and Jenga.
  10. Thailand does have a weather modification program which uses aircraft. https://article.wn.com/view/2022/08/13/Thailand_and_Indonesia_sign_a_3_Year_Deal_for_the_advancemen/
  11. why i fly biz class and just go chill in the lounge
  12. again you are thinking about what you would do if the stuff was yours whatever you thought any purchases were for does not matter as they do not belong to you she has no reason to sell anything when she can just ask you for more money you are frustrated as you keep giving the answer is simple stop giving, or give a set amount you are ok with. or buy her gold when she requests money. you are getting frustrated at your own actions it seems, as your actions enable and encourage her behaviour.
  13. you not flown for a very long time? International flyers have long been advised to arrive 3 hours prior to flight, not that it is needed in most cases just gives you more time to spend some money while you are waiting
  14. i never mentioned selling anything. you stated you are good financially and have only given what you can afford to lose well lets be blunt again YOU LOST IT, it's gone you will never get it back again, it is not yours to sell or decide it should be sold. now that bit is clear, we are back to you fulfilling any money requests and we go back to my initial comment grow a pair and tell her, if it means the big D word then so be it but i did not state that initially but if you do not want to give her X monthly then Divorce seems the only option, which would be the best case for her to sell anything really but be honest, do you think you would you feel safe once you tell her no more money and you want a divorce?
  15. if you are not happy about the money requests answer is simple, to be blunt, grow a pair and tell her, and then talk about where to go from there. or setup direct debit or whatever equivalent scheduled payment of X amount and tell her that is it. Sounds like you have already let this go on way too long.
  16. when the rest of the world goes right, Thailand goes left, i bet the pug is buzzing. Time to get a nice crop on the go, just in case.
  17. it is a bit scary to think of someone moving country and not having this basic info which can be found in minutes obviously i now understand why you are asking if there is an agent FYI, it is possible he could be charged import tax on a desktop PC and monitors, better to save the hassle and just sell it and replace when here
  18. Sounds like Jessica arrived as a tourist and doesn't want to go home i can say this from experience, it is not easy but doable, even harder with a family The fact she is making a song and dance about it has me thinking it may be harder than she thinks for herself and her family if cheap living is what they are after they would do better in Cambodia where it would be much easier to work or start a business seems like it will just be another one of these "I'm moving to Thailand" and a year or two later "I'm leaving Thailand"
  19. agreed, its just an out of sight out of mind thing.
  20. my last main rig was overkill which had 128GB DDR4 RAM (ryzen threadripper and 3 x GPU) but i never got close to using it all so in the end used half the RAM in other rigs when rebuilding it to move as had it wall mounted now my new main ryzen 9 7900 (low power) rigs run with just 32GB DDR5 which is fine for their needs
  21. correction, would be 7600 for onboard gpu at 6740 but to add you can also get the Ryzen 5 8500G latest Gen for 6950 baht from JIB
  22. just curious, what are you doing that requires 128GB DDR5 RAM? or is it just an overkill build?
  23. firstly most shops will build your PC when buying all parts from them you can buy keys online quick and easy for $2 (he does not need a bunch of keys ready, but here it is likely just pirate/cracked) without knowing exact models That PC is worth less than 10,500 cpu 3265 - 3550 (really bad value for what is on the market) MB - 1800 (1610 lowest) RAM - 1290 HDD - 2172 (would have been better just buying 2TB SSD for 4610 imo or 1TB SSD and increase when needed) SSD - 840 PSU - 400 (Dtech is cheap) Case - 610 USB wifi - 50 that is just taking prices from advice not even shopping around not a great buy at all, this is a low end OLD machine would have been much better to spend a little extra and buy current generation that will not need updating so quickly if was myself i would go for something more like this: cpu Ryzen 5 7500F for 6180 or latest Ryzen 5 8600G for 8740 MB - 2610 RAM - 1542 for 16GB DDDR5 (8GB likely fine as DDDR5) HDD - none SSD - 2275 for 1TB NVME (additional slot on MB to add more later) PSU - 1190 80+ aerocool Case - 600 wifi - 50 total = 14447 or 17007 with latest CPU that only just hit the market while it is good to let others build if you do not like or know how to do yourself it is not good to let others decide on the parts for your build.
