Is there anything like a Beelink with a remote?
Salerno replied to giddyup's topic in Audio Visual AV
Plenty, probably be better to give readers an idea of what you want to do for more targeted replies. -
Bolt "should" work, Gett shouldn't (it doesn't have a presence in Thailand). Most people seem to recommend Grab.

VPN vs Cloud Computers for connecting to home from Thailand
Salerno replied to WaveHunter's topic in IT and Computers
Your sisters computer is not involved, just her router. You in Thailand > your sister's router in the states > the website. Your computer will be on her IP address so geolocation is somewhat covered. But you may hit problems if the sites causing you problems are using browser fingerprinting (see https://pixelprivacy.com/resources/browser-fingerprinting). To see the kind of info they can possibly have on you visit https://www.deviceinfo.me/ (or the two options in the link above). -
‘High chance’ of mass shooting in Hollywood was prevented, police say
Salerno replied to Scott's topic in World News
@KhunLA Thanks for the info, a "misdemeanour" should deter everyone ... not! Had a quick look and guessing my initial impression was likely based on high-profile cases I'd probably heard of over the years. Some heavy sentences, rightfully so, listed here and the US features prominently https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest_prison_sentences. I particularly like the sentence the sick <deleted> Lopez ended up with after rejecting 13 and 22 year plea deal offers - 1503 years (assuming he is guilty as charged obviously). -

Salerno replied to Scott's topic in World News
Is that right? I thought a lot had been given consecutive sentences in the States, or would that just be for the more heinous crimes that had actually been committed rather than caught before they could? -
Russia only has a total of 11 SSBNs (only doesn't seem like a good word given how devastating one can be really) guarantee not all of them at sea or even seaworthy. The US alone has 53 attack submarines (again, not all will be at sea) plus add others from NATO. What would be the odds on there being a US sub just behind a Russian sub sitting off the coast watching for any hatches opening.

That's cool, so it wouldn't be totally out of left field if your stepdaughter wanted to pursue a career in forensics overseas, as you said, hell of a waste of five years on something she is obviously fairly passionate about. I'm not going to hold my breath but things will slowly change in Thailand, would be cool if she could start her career overseas, gain experience and come back into the RTP when it catches up.

I would think that would be seen as "running a business" therefore, if it came to the attention of authorities you could have problems.

Correct, but then replied to by heybruce and that reply was replied to by Saanim (which is the one you arced up about) which unfortunately also had your post quoted. If you followed it from the initial sarcastic comment then I doubt you would have posted "You are the one that suggested helping North Korea with democracy. Not BruceH. So you should take up that issue with yourself." Clear as mud now? 555

E-Extension - Working/Valid?
Salerno replied to aldriglikvid's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Looks like an interesting first step. But, for now, applicant must have address in Bangkok only and must get sticker visa in Bangkok and you need to go to the IO to get a sticker after application approved. Would be nice if they're trialing it for future country roll out. -
Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
Salerno replied to Chris.B's topic in The War in Ukraine
I don't frequent that many so I'll take your word for it. Not even that silently. Many appear to have drunk a hell of a lot of their version of Kool-Aid. -
The problem is there's no such thing, they reinterpreted various legislation such as the Customs Act, Public Health Ministry Act and made announcements to declare vaping paraphernalia illegal. There is no law against vaping per se but good luck arguing your case (not "you" specifically obviously) and proving your equipment and juice was imported prior to 2014 and still worked.

Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
Salerno replied to Chris.B's topic in The War in Ukraine
"The hundreds of thousands of Russians who fled the country over the past year have not staged any major anti-war rallies while in exile, despite no longer being subject to draconian Kremlin restrictions” I don't particularly find that surprising. Two main reasons: 1) they aren't exactly get the best of reception in various countries and likely just wanting to keep their heads down, and 2) unless an orphan, doing so could be detrimental to the health of loved one left behind (brothers, sisters, parents, extended family etc.). Of course there's also the cohort that believe in Putin's war but don't have the balls to actually fight for there conviction. As much as I would have loved them to stay behind and protest or even more, it's far easier to have those feelings from outside than actually act on them from inside.
