Send by DHL, they are the customs broker themselves so there will not be any issues with import, especially if you clearly state that the equipment is second hand - something like "used computer equipment (hard drives)". But you will have to pay the import tax - 7% VAT and possibly 10% extra for the "computer equipment", plus 220 baht DHL fee.

meanwhile Chrome and friends (Brave, Vivaldi, et cetera) added a new feature allowing websites to read and write clipboard contents. -
Tax residence certificate

I've found this: https://taxsummaries.pwc.com/thailand/individual/tax-administration - you need to submit the papers for 2022 before 31th March 2023, I think that 1st January 2023 counts as "before 31th March" It is not an official website though so the information could be wrong. -
the only "caddy" on your screenshot is intended for an internal HDD, and all "enclosures" are for external ones But now I understand what you mean - - you call an "internal drive" what I and other people call just "drive", hence the confusion. And I must note that some external drives that are already sold inside an enclosure very often could not be used as an internal drive because the inclosure uses a proprietary connection not a usual SATA port. So I would suggest buying a drive and an enclosure separately - this way you surely will be able to use the drive as both an internal or external one.

this is an enclosure, used for external drives this is a caddy, used for internal drives (for laptop in this example) this is a caddy, used for internal drives in servers or NASs what is an "enclosure for internal drives"?

I've mistaken it with some other malware, "hand of thief" is just the first name that I've recalled. Still there is plenty of userland malware that does not require root privileges.

I haven't used Lazada for more than a year and opened it today to find the product I've bought to share its link. And I've found out that my review of that product was removed, although it was a positive, not negative. FYI Aliexpress removes 1+ year old reviews (some people report that even 6 months old reviews get deleted).

States have unlimited free money supply so american businesses could throw away 13gen Dells with no remorse, I constantly read reports online like "my company decommissioned a few servers worth $2000 and I bought it from the IT department for $200". Unfortunately Thailand is not States so 11gen Dells are still in production here. As for the cabinet - I've bought mine from this seller: https://www.lazada.co.th/shop/mdf-marketing/ pretty good quality for its price, was delivered promptly, glass was not smashed. btw I have a few 1U servers for sale - two with fixed hard drives and one with hot swap 2.5" hard drives. They are old though, Haswell-Broadwell generations, similar to Dell 12gen. PM if interested. btw2: check facebook marketplace, there are plenty of cabinets for sale. For example: https://en-gb.facebook.com/marketplace/item/595489285303367/?ref=search&referral_code=null&referral_story_type=post

LASIK is two generations old technology, you should do RELEX.

yep, it could really do wonders. Thailand's internet is routed ass-backwards - some connections to Europe go through USA, and sometimes I get higher ping and lower speed when connecting directly from Thailand to European servers than when connecting via Singapore VPN.

you should visit the office instead of calling their support because "1st level" support personnel doesn't even know what a static or public IP is.

New Paypal phishing scam?
fdsa replied to WorriedNoodle's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
> Scammers are using invoices sent through PayPal.com to trick recipients into calling a number to dispute a pending charge ah, that one is similar to the scam I already know - I often receive an email with text like "your subscription for (some random product name) was renewed and your account will be charged (some random amount), if you have questions please call +1 (some random phone number)" I suppose that if you call that number to "dispute" the payment you will be tricked into handing your credit card details to the fraudsters on the phone. -
Air Hostess job : Could it be a scam?
fdsa replied to 2long's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
There are several methods of protection against spoofing an email, such as SPF, DKIM and DMARC records - a properly configured mail servers (both the sender and recipient) will not allow such fake emails. However emirates.com domain has a half of the UAE's IP addresses in their SPF record, including third parties such as Salesforce, Outlook and Amazon AWS, and I bet many of these IPs do not belong to emirates already so a persistent hacker could spoof the emails e.g. by finding a suitable server on Amazon. Also they have a broken DMARC record, and I didn't see their DKIM header which could be broken as well. it's not 2007 anymore... -

Makers of browser privacy extensions fear the end is near
fdsa replied to topt's topic in IT and Computers
unfortunately it is not enough, especially if you've cloned these machines and not installed each one from scratch. There are like a million fingerprints on the OS level and some of them are even used by the browsers to fingerprint users, for example "/etc/machine-id" on Linux. google for "antidetect browser" - these are special heavily modified browsers with all fingerprinting functions removed and/or spoofed. They were initially made by the russian hackers for the russian hackers but recently became popular among the general public for "legitimate" use e.g. spamming on Facebook or writing paid reviews on Tripadvisor -
it was like that 20-something years ago, and about 5 years ago Linux became the primary target already.

please stop spreading misinformation. a malware for Linux runs perfectly fine with user privileges and does not need to "install" itself with root privileges. linux is same vulnerable as windows and in some aspects it is even more vulnerable. lol

first you need to understand what "antivirus" and "firewall" are and what they are used for, then you need to realize that it's not 2007 anymore and the modern malware does not spread like back then. reading lame misleading articles created by Indian copywriters will not give that comprehension, unfortunately. even if these copywriters have self-proclaimed loud titles like "expert" or "CTO" or whatever. and the last (and the only) thing you need to live happily without any antiviruses or firewalls is to adjust your browsing habits. if you are going to download free RAM then no antivirus will help you.
