    Impoverished? No. It's not about 'free', but fast. My visa doesn't matter, as I need it for foreign clients, so it's no work, or whatever in Thailand.
  2. StayinThailand2much
    Naw, at least 5...

    Need a package to do video-conferencing (Google Meet, Zoom).

    Thanks. Looking into this. But I'd need a place that opens 8.30 in the morning. Guess, Starbucks won't open that early.

    I'm in the same boat (Bangkok). My landlady outright refused to do the TM30. I did it online. Then it was time for my first TM47. My earlier self-report was declined, and I was asked to do another TM30. In addition I was fined 800 baht. (The IO receiving my "late" TM30 was not at all interested in the fact that my landlady was breaking the law, but, instead, seemed to enjoy fining me.)

    I don't have a dual SIM. Using my android as a hotspot, I noticed that the shared internet connection on my laptop is slow, i.e. not enough for larger files to download. I could sign up for an "unlimited package for 7 days". - My question is, would the internet connection of my laptop be 'unlimited' too, i.e. have the same speed as on my android?

    I admit that I'm not very tech-savvy. Yes, I could sign up for packages with my provider (DTAC), using my android as a hotspot for my laptop. My question is, would the internet speed this way work 1:1 on my laptop?
  8. StayinThailand2much
    Where?
  9. StayinThailand2much
    I tried McDonald's wifi, but it either didn't work (most of the time), or it was very slow.
  10. StayinThailand2much
    Where can I find such a place? Time: 9 a.m., Bang Kae or Silom.

    I think, I need a crash-course laptops and notebooks for dummies... Supposedly very similar, with the notebooks just a bit thinner and lighter? So, why are laptops much more expensive (3 or four times the price of a notebook)? Also, any opinion about the Fujitsu LifeBook A574/M?
  12. StayinThailand2much
    Actually, I'll need it for online meetings, and my android won't do for that purpose.
  13. StayinThailand2much
    Thanks. I will check out Fortune Town. My budget is less than 10,000 baht (if possible).
  14. StayinThailand2much
    Anyone have experience with the Lenovo IdeaPad 1i (15", Gen 7)?
  15. StayinThailand2much
    Great advice, thanks. I had an Acer laptop in the past. Will check out Lotus's (which branch) and BananaIT. (I don't know JIB.) How about MBK; a good place to buy a cheap laptop?
  16. StayinThailand2much
    I don't really care about the brand. I just want to use it for online apps like Zoom, Viper, Whatsapp, etc.
  17. StayinThailand2much
    Where to buy a new, cheap laptop in Bangkok?

    I had a very high opinion of the Chinese and their culture before I travelled to, and lived in mainland China. I still have respect for the traditional Chinese culture, say, in Hong Kong, or Taiwan. However, it is my impression that the Chinese on the mainland have changed, losing a lot of their culture, traditions, and moral codes, thanks to China's history since 1949.

    What other people, men and women, spit all over the place, thinking it is the most normal thing in the world?
  20. StayinThailand2much
    It's understandable on temple grounds where everyone is asked to wear long sleeves and pants. But on Sanam Luang? C'mon!
  21. StayinThailand2much
    Unbelievable! Only 100 years ago Thai women often didn't even wear tops! - Is Thailand copying "traditions" from the Ayatollahs, or Islamic State now? No wonder that Westerners more and more decide not to visit Thailand (again)...
  22. StayinThailand2much
    No harm done. Most Thais, even the highly educated ones, think/claim that (I am quoting what I heard) "all Burmese are thieves and dangerous"... (Again, none of this is my opinion.)
  23. StayinThailand2much
    Haha... True too.
  24. StayinThailand2much
    LOL. That brings back memories. I had read so much about Japan and the Japanese as a kid that, almost 30 years ago, I was confident to leave my big heavy backpack at a post office for a day. Went back hours later with a story that I had 'forgotten it'... It was untouched, but moved to the staff area. I wouldn't ever do that in another country.

    That means nothing in Thailand. Crimes happen a stone's throw from police stations.
