  1. 06 12 2024 We all have our own beliefs for religion, societies, economics, politics etc. etc. but I find the practice of posting a profile picture which is a political statement offensive. I think many would complain if a swastika was used and photos of some controversial figures could disturb some. Personally, I find MAGA (make america great again) to be a political statement and do not know why it is allowed. Using the much hated Farage as a profile pic offends me; he was the person who pushed the UK into the brexit fiasco, causing misery for millions. Poor taste or misguided support of bad politics / persons who knows? I would prefer not to be reminded of these things when using this forum. Thank you๐Ÿ™
  2. Got this reply from imilab. https://www.imilabglobal.com/pages/support-center
  3. Look at UK and Russian investors. This country would be bought up in a heartbeat. How can Thailand open its doors to countries at war. Russia and Israel, for example. Russia in particular has released prisoners from jail to fight in their illegal war. If a 'soldier' survives they are free to go. Go where? Thailand seems a good deal. These people are killers who have no regard for civility and have no fear. Last year a Russian person was given a 500b fine for kicking a pregnant shopkeeper in the stomach. How many have visited southern provinces lately? Hotels are posting Russian, as the language of the property ahead of English, French or any other. Staff are not Thai and many do not speak Thai. Opening the doors to cash rich foreigners will enrich the wealthy, not the public at large. Beware.
  4. 30 11 24, Back again and looking for a way to connect my imilab smart box to my router (cable connected). The incorrect password will not stop, I have uninstalled everything, changed the household 3bb 2.4gh router and gently followed all the instructions. I mistakenly bought a xaiomi camera too. When I tried to register with xaiomi. I tried using my email address and was advised that it was already taken. So I followed all the instructions to reset my forgotten password after they stated my user name email was already taken. Reset password 100% ok but next screen, on opening account, states user name or password is incorrect. What is this? Does the new password setting have to go to some distant central computer requiring a wait b4 using the new password? Not only that, is anyone experiencing multiple 'choose the bus or bike' to prove to be human? I contacted xaiomi international help line (email) and they were very polite writing to say that my imilab products are not their responsibility. I have an imilab email to write to but no response so far. This stuff seems very good. Is it only the software that is cr%p? Am I missing something here? (Threw away the shipping lable so cannot return. yes, stupid) Does someone have that key solution please? (as in, some unmentioned trick) Or an idea of where i can get some help. Please help. Thank you๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ (very much)
  5. 26 11 2024, I purchased an Imilab kit including an EC4 camera and an Imilab Smart Hub. I also purchased an Imilab EC3 camera and a Xiaomi AW300 camera. There have been numerous problems setting up this system starting with an error message from the hub stating that the password was wrong. Which one was not mentioned. There is a password for Imilab app etc. but now I know it was a password for my router access that they are looking for. This problem persists in spite of entering the correct password multiple times following an uninstall etc.. Looking on YT I see that other people have this problem but no solution was offered. I got the 4 camera working but not sure if it is going though the hub or direct to my router. The EC3 imilab camera would not connect to the imilab smart hub (it is on the app's list of devices to add, however) but it did connect directly to my router and functions. The Xiaomi AW300 would not connect to the hub but is connected directly to my router. It seems that the cameras w/o batteries will need a reset or something in the event of a power failure but there is no mention of that so I don't know. Any ideas? Here is my question: Anybody know of an Imilab/Xiaomi help line that is not require that the items were purchased from them please? I bought these devices from Imilab Thailand shop, an authorized dealer, on Shopee. So far they have not replied to my chat requests for help. Along with a help line for this equipment, can you explain how the Imii, Xiaomi etc. etc. organizations work, or don't work together please? It seems like they are the same company except when they are not. (there are little green foxhead icon on some items). Thanks in advance to any help.๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ™
  6. Thank you very much for comments. I did find a local shop who installed win 11 for me and I lost the files on the computer. Not so bad as important stuff is on Drive or Photos in a cloud. Still, not accepting a password, then changing it, then some parts of the system don't seem to get the new password so the whole recovery process starts again. This 2 stage verification is good if it is a phone number or email, but using a number generating app has not worked with FaceBook. I have only partially recovered that account and cannot be bothered any more. Thanks for comments. ๐Ÿ™ Rice harvest underway with a bumper crop๐Ÿ˜Š Drying rice; clear skies over the schoolyard here in Isaan.โค๏ธ
  7. My facebook was hacked and in my misguided efforts to recover my FB account I have done something to windows 11 that makes a 'normal' windows recovery not work. (FB is still not right but I have given up for now) On the final screen there is an option to reinstall windows with or without apps and data removed. This is after the auto repair in all its variations have been exhausted. I imagine wifi is not connected and don't know if that has affected the repair and/or the reinstall option. There is no usb boot available and my efforts to enable it have failed (numerous YT methods tried). I could buy a code for win 11 from Lazada for <500B but don't know how I could install it w/o functioning wifi or usb. I live in rural Buriram Province, Isaan btw so IT shops are a rarity here. Thanks in advance for any comments๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿ™
  8. Thank you for your comments. I France I carried one card in a small wallet on a neck cord. Will do the same here. I am going to start using one card with a low limit and keep the balance on that account low too. Lazada and shopee used to have 2 factor id but it seems to have stopped. Is there a way to reactivate this service? Thanks again๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

  10. There is a method used to confuse and misdirect the public which is to flood the media with information of all kinds. True, false, outrageous, impossible, ridiculous and more it matters not. False information gets repeated and distorted and believed by people who have a vote. MJ Green has claimed that the government controls the weather and were sending to Republican areas of Florida. Trump said Haitians are eating dogs. For example. Both ridiculous but both have had serous consequences. Trump is already planning an insurrection and the vote numbers will not change that (unless he wins). The US is not our friend. America first is and always has been their motive. Never forget.๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ
  11. Thanks Wiil B Good. I'll check at the bank about reducing the limit. Who is that monster in your picture window? If it is a joke this subscriber doesn't get it. Sorry, but this man will destroy the world given the chance and a bunch of inbred hillbillies might just give him the opportunity. The fate of the world may rest in the hands of a collection of US high school dropouts who have not travelled much beyond the end of their driveway. The man has been described as the biggest threat to world security; coming from the country that has been constantly at war since its conception. War is when the rich and powerful send the poor to defend their honour, or some such obscure reason. Peace๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ
  12. 1610 2024 I just got back from France where I experienced the growth of payment by contact with a card reader w/o the need for a pin, except occasionally. It happens here too but I did not realize it until my trip there. I have been walking around with lots of debit/credit cards in my pocket which, if lost, could bankrupt me.(!!!) I went to one of the banks here and asked if I could make my cards require 2 x confirmation by text or email and they said no, cannot. Is this true? I didn't press them at the bank about this as I have occasionally found bank employees not well versed in answers to unusual questions. I have 3 banks, not because I have lots of money; living in a rural community means a local bank, a main BKK city bank and one more for some forgotten reason. They all function equally well (or other) and I have thought that a solution could be to use one card only for purchases in person or online. Then just transfer only enough funds to cover purchases as they are made or anticipated. Leaving all other cards in a safe place at home. I bought a card holder wallet with a neck cord in France and that is where my cards live now, safe(ish) from lost. Any ideas about insisting on a 2 factor ID from a Thai Bank? I have not enquired beyond asking one bank so there may be a simple solution; hope so. I have been caught up with an authenticator (google) app that issues codes that are not accepted so that is not a good solution for me just now. Any comment very welcome, thankyouverymuch.๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ
  13. ADHD? Here is a TEDx talk by a young woman who was diagnosed adhd and how she is coping with it. This vid is about 6 years old and is still very relevant. She has published a book by the same title and has many many YouTube videos. Help is on the way. 'Official' estimates in the west have around 12% of children affected by this condition. Some experts (physicians, neurologist, physiologists etc.), however, suggest that as many of 50% of adults may have this condition in the west but have adapted or masked some symptoms. For you clowns who want to dwell on prescribed 'speed' please inform yourselves about this condition and its remedies. Ignorance is boring and offensive.

  14. Goodmorning Sheryl, Thank you. Do you know of any groups or organizations that address adhd here in Thailand? Canada has taken adhd seriously and there are many such groups there.
