  1. Honesty is down. Clicks are up.
  2. Unable to use any ride-hailing app due to ongoing mobile system 'under capacity' in a high density suburb of Bangkok. Fortunately, a nearby business that was just closing up for the night let me use their wifi. Otherwise I was stranded. Other apps have also been non-functional in this region for over 1 week. I am sue we are not allowed to name the mobile ISP on these forums. The door to tech Hell world is opening ...
  3. Seems to be endless scorn cast upon the likes of Aussies, Brits, Chinese, Indians, Russians, USANs, and so on and so forth. Which nationality provides the most appealing tourists? Is "appealing tourists in Thailand" even a thing?
  4. Is this the place? https://amtelcity.com/photos/ The Ocean Wing is apparently still bookable on Priceline.
  5. Think we can safely rule out: A park Anything life-giving Anything not concrete Anything sensible An well-designed mall might be the most desirable of the likely options . Are large malls still being built in the age of Lazada & Shopee?
  6. Fascinating. You, sir, are a beacon for all.
  7. Older things - such as the bible and films - are also being altered. I realized recently that I have become relatively less interested in the internet and more interested in first-hand accounts by actual people - preferably friends.
  8. I blew past the editing time allotment on this post. The point I was trying for is these populations do not want a resolution as such a resolution would destroy their reason(s) for being.
  9. Raison d'être is a French term that means "reason for being" or "justification for existence." It refers to the fundamental purpose or motivation behind someone's life or actions. People get ornery if you try to take away their raison d'être, no matter how idiotic. Ergo, short of mass lobotomies, these Arab Jew & religious battles will never end.
  10. And you needn't be carrying around your tracking device phone like a putz.
  11. Nothing happens when I click the green + symbol. Tried it in 2 browsers.
  12. Just discovered it: Canned Mackerel in Tomato Sauce on Toast. Lots of protein, omega-3, and, maybe, calcium. Not the sugar of canned beans. Cheaper, not the rip-off that are imported foods, and tastes better. All-in-all, a fast, cheap, tasty, nutritious snack.
  13. Kayak.com lists these 7 as airlines flying Hat Yai > Bangkok direct: Hahn Air Systems Nok Air Thai AirAsia Thai Airways Thai Lion Air Thai Vietjet Air WorldTicket More here: https://www.perplexity.ai/search/which-airline-flying-hat-yai-t-sPSG.RVmQCWp3TWQjsu9Sw#0
  14. Yep, no beans. Crazy. Can contact them here: https://tacobell.co.th/

  16. Years ago the magic number to avoid low balance fees (and the draining of your account, leading to its closing) was > 2,000 baht at several accounts & banks I deal with. Haven't checked recently but if you're concerned about being charged fees & losing your account, check into this minimum balance.
  17. Sort of related, I guess: Was recently listening to an Alan Watts channel on YouTube, thinking this is some really great stuff. Watts seriously had it going on. Then happened to read the description. The content creator acknowledged that the voice was an AI-generated copy of Alan Watts. Okay, thought I, but this is still some great stuff. But also acknowledged in the description: the words 'spoken' were not even Watts' own words but an "interpretation". "The content is freely interpreted, inspired by his teachings, and shared with respect and admiration. The voice used is AI-generated and not the real voice of Alan Watts." Motherf+ckers
  18. richard_smith237 making more sense in this thread than is generally advisable. Never-the-less, full marks.
  19. Meh. Nothing much on the internet anymore ...
  20. Didn't take long for CP to ruin Tesco. Turned it into essentially a giant 7-11.
  21. One day a critical mass of dumbasses will wake up bored with the internet, selfies, the latest BS tech. And that will be the day the world implodes. I say bring it.
  22. Indeed. And the way governments empty the coffers is by squandering
